Yaaay

  • What's up brothas and sistas? I'm EXCITED! I'm leaving for Vegas in a matter of hours. I'm sitting here wolfing down my chef salad, drinking my cherry coke zero and trying to figure out when I'll be sleeping. I should take a nap soon. In fact I may just finish half this blog and then snooze, and come back to it. My boss isn't coming in today, he's covering for me the next 3 nights. That means I can half doze most of my shift. Yay!
  • Okay so Friday afternoon I worked at Traffic, and then that evening I went on some last minute errands with Michelle. We went to Bath and Body Works (didn't need anything from there but we had a coupon), and besides my two body washes I also got a travel size body spray for my trip. Then we hit up Payless Shoe Source and I got a cute pair of dressy sandals/shoes for the club for like $20. Last on our trip was Target so I could get sunscreen, more socks and disposable wipes. Later I went home and did lots of packing, then Cathy gave me a pedicure.
  • Saturday I did my usual thing at KDFC in the city, then went out to Lodi to kick it with Kimmie for 80s greatness. Let's see where do I begin? First thing we watched was the first episode of the third season of Wonder Woman guest starring Leif Garrett called "My Teenage Idol Is Missing". He was hot for a teen. Whoo. As we were watching that, Cathy and TJ showed up and hung out with us for a few hours. I think we tortured them with "When The Bough Breaks", a bad TV movie starring Ted Danson and that dude that played Veda's uncle in My Girl. It was pretty cheesy, but hey it was 1986. After that was the New Kids with their Step By Step video. Cathy and TJ left right after the beginning of Boltneck starring Matthew Lawrence, Judge Reinhold and Shelly Duvall. Too bad, they missed out on my movie boyfriend sucking face with Shelly Duvall. LMAO When Boltneck was over Kimmie put me through two episodes of the Golden Girls, and another episode of Wonder Woman entitled Amazon Hot Wax which I throughly enjoyed. Who can't enjoy Judge Reinhold's first TV role ever as Jeff, one half of a scary singing duo with horrible matching 70stastic outfits? If my computer were back and I had time I'd show you a pic, it was wonderful. He always plays such retards/dorks with flair and confidence. Oh I forgot, we had McDonalds for dinner (mcnuggets kids meal with apple slices) and chocolate creme pie for dessert which Cathy made.
  • Sunday we got up around 9am or so. I took a shower, and we ate leftover pie and coffee for breakfast. Bad, I know. I tortured Kimmie with Four Eyes and Six Guns, another Judge flick, he was dorky and cute in that one. I love how the swanky guitar riff lets the viewer know that trouble is lurking nearby. It's in every TV show/movie I've seen, practically. Anyway.. after that we were picked up by Dial A Ride which we refer to as Dial A Crap, and had lunch at Lyons with Kimmie's mom. What an experience. Her mom means well, I guess. She's just weird, but lots of older folks are. She gave me a sleepytime Ernie doll thing, so that was unexpected and nice. So we finally get back to Kimmie's house and watch one of our favorites, Legend Of Billie Jean. Really great movie, and Yeardley Smith looks so freaking young, it's crazy. I then tortured Kimmie with one last film, Baby On Board starring Judge and Carol Kane. He had long hair and a creepy moustache so he kind of looked like a child predator. Poor guy. By that time I had to leave since I had to pack and do last minute things at home before work. Traffic in Tracy wasn't as bad, there was a slight delay but nothing longer than 10 minutes.
  • Oh yes, I did take a slight snooze while writing this. For a few hours. Well I half dozed anyway. I'm so excited about my trip and it's hard to sleep while I'm so energized. I'll take a ton of pictures, I promise. YAAAAAAY!!
