Look Who's Back! Back Again!

Yep I didn't die in Vegas.  I got back Monday evening and I slept/rested all day yesterday. Vegas was BEYOND amazing and I had a blast. I will do a recap soon but I can't find my camera cord so I may do a recap  with no pictures and then share the pictures later lol. We shall see.

Here is a quick recap of what we did though and some tips to do Vegas right,

Friday Night: We arrived really late at night. Went to walk around New York, New York, Excalibur, and the Luxor. It was just a fun night of being silly and touristy.

Tip: Ask for directions if you cant find something or else you will just be wandering around aimlessly. 
Quote of the night: Dude Cris Angel looks like a Penis!


Saturday: Drink all day party all night-motto for Saturday! Walked the strip from 10:30 am- 5 pm. Then we played games in our hotel room (we stayed at the MGM). That night we went to 3 clubs (Tabu, Studio 54, and Eva Longoria's). Eva's was the best that night. She has a fantastic club and it was nice to get free drinks at all the clubs.

This was me on Saturday night. Ready for the clubs (from my phone)

This is the one in the Miracle Mile Shops at Planet Hollywood

Tip: Get your souvenir drinks at Fat Tuesdays (located in a bunch of the hotels including MGM, Planet Hollywood, Excalibur, Imperial Palace) because they are cheaper, tastier, and stronger. (I got a football with Belinni and Peach in it). Also always get Jello Shots!

See thats Adam Richman from Man vs. Food. He is holding food from Hash House a Go Go.

Sunday: We went and ate at Hash a Go Go which is a pretty famous (and amazing) diner at Imperial Palace. Adam Richman (the guy from Man vs. Food) approves of it! Then we walked the strip a bit more. Then 2 of us went to the spa and met some people there. Ended up staying there for 4 hours. We went to Thunder from Down Under that night! It was fantastic. We ended our trip going to XS at Encore!! BEST CLUB Ive ever been to. I would reccomend it to everyone!

Me and my "little" with the Thunder from Down Under boys

Tip: Get the Monorail Pass!! It is only $12 for the day ( a full 24 hour time span) and trust me it can save your feet if you are club hopping or going to a club on the opposite side of the strip then where you are staying. 


Tip 2: Don't pay to get into clubs. Always take little passes from the people on the street. Sometimes its worth it to tip them $10 because they'll give you VIP passes to 4 high end clubs and drink passes too. Always find out the guest lists at all the clubs. We didn't wait in line at all this weekend nor pay and we got free drinks at every club we went to.


Tip 3: GO TO XS!! It is amazing!

This is what it looked like. The dance floor opens to the outside. Overlooking the pool. That gazebo is actually in the center of the pool and there is a girl dancing in it. It is like a mini rave

Quote of the Night: If the ground is glittery then it is not dirty. (I had to walk barefoot for a small part of the strip because my feet were KILLING me)


Monday: Left Vegas at 12 pm and got back at 4 pm. Slept until Kevin came home from work and jumped into his arms. I missed him a lot :)

Well thats my mini recap for you :) Excited for my long one?

Exciting News Revealed & Friday Oddities (PG-13 Edition)

Hola folks!! Well I am able to tell you all my exciting news. 

I will be flying out to Atlanta for a week of training on November 29th. I am super super excited about this job. I will be a territory manager (outside sales) for business to business sale of engravable materials. I think I will do a great job in outside sales and I will be making way more money than at my current job. AND I will be getting paid bi-weekly instead of monthly (which sucked)


 I quit my other job and I am now on "vacation" until then.  I could have just given my two weeks at my job and then not had a break in between the two but I didn't for a couple of reasons 1) I was miserable there and not performing well and 2) I have never given myself time off since I graduated high school. I worked full time when I was in college (full time). I got my 1st "career" job right out of college and went from my college job directly to that 1st job. Then when I got my second job I took 2 days off before I started. So I think its important that I give myself this time off to relax, not be burnt out, and get my ducks in order. So woot!!

Okay now it is some time for Friday Oddities! 

(Please do not read the following stories if you don't want to read about sex or if you get offended easily. I warned you so no bitching at me for being a pervert or rude.)

So I "stole" the first two from Stacy Says. She always has some great stuff that she features and I love her blog so you should check it out.


Too lazy to buy a vibrator? Check out this Drive Thru Sex Shop

Source

Yah. I can't believe that this is real. In Alabama they felt that it was necessary to make a drive thru sex shop. Why? I don't get it. I mean sure sometimes after a long hard day at work you don't want to get out of the car to buy those edible panties you have been wanting. Even with three lanes, I wonder how long the wait is. 

Oh on another note...Sex shops are still banned in Alabama (ugh don't get me started on why this pisses me off). So in order to be legal it has to be serving a "medical reason" so customers have to fill out a health survey before purchasing anything.

This Cricket has Big Balls!

Source

This is a Bush Cricket whose balls account for 14% of its body weight and scientists are saying this is the reason behind why they are so promiscuous. When animals have big testes they are more likely to mate with many females. (So beware women if your significant other has larger than usual balls he might be more promiscuous) 


The Bush Cricket's ball weight proportion to body size  would be equivalent to a man whose balls weigh 11 lbs. CRAZY!

Weird Sex Facts

Worlds Oldest Condom...Made of Linen

Now I present you with the top 10 weird sex facts.


1) Vibrators and Sex are better than a Tranquilizer
2) Kellogg's Corn Flakes were invented to reduce masturbation...
3)Sperm on face=No wrinkles
4)Sex makes you beautiful (so have sex with more ugly people!)
5)In the 1500s condoms were made of linen. 
6)Wig for your privates... Hmm no thanks
7) Missed the gym? Have sex. It will burn 300 calories every 30 minutes. Yah I avoid the gym like the plague...but I still exercise :)
8)Women like dirty talk more! (Yah this shouldn't be on the weird facts list)
9) Shoes and feet are the most commen fetishes. I won't feel so bad on my next shoe shopping trip
10) Blow Job came about because "blow" was slang for ejaculation and "blowsy" was slang for prostitute. 

Well I shall be in Vegas this weekend on my girls trip. We leave tonight and I will be back Monday late afternoon probably. I will try to take tons of pictures and have a good recap for you when I get back...But I cant promise anything!! 

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

Took a little Blogcation and a Birthday!

Hello Folks! Sorry I took a mini blogcation. I think I am back but Im not positive yet. I have some exciting news that hopefully Ill be able to share on Friday but it means I may or may not be kinda scarce in this bloggy world for the next couple of weeks or so. Ill fill you in with the details when I am able to. :) So today is Wednesday and that means Wee Bit of Me Wednesday.

Oh wait you want a little bit of an update? Ok um... This weekend was pretty low key. Went and saw kevin's band play on Friday, girl time on Saturday, and football on Sunday. I am happy that the Chargers have won 2 in a row (there may still be hope). This week has been whatever but it seems to be ending on a positive note (hopefully more on that on Friday). Oh and I will be going to Vegas on a girls trip from Friday-Monday. So yah, go ahead and be jealous ;). 

Now enjoy learning more about me like you do every week. :) And link up over at Leigh Ashleys blog (click on the little logo below) because its a lot of fun

{one} do you collect anything? if so, what and how long have you been collecting?
I use to collect thimbles (back when I was in high school). I guess I semi-collect shot glasses now...especially ones from Vegas. Im sure I will come back with a couple on Monday. 

This is just a small part of our collection  but 3 of these are Vegas themed. Oh and my old roommate took my black and pink Vegas shot glass so I have to replace that one of course.

 
{two} what is one cleaning tip that you swear by? Avoid it at all costs!!! Im not kidding. I really do avoid it as much as possible... :(
 

{three} who would you call for bail money? Kevin...He would be able to come get me or at least find someone who could :0
{four} what is one thing you miss about being a kid? the lack of responsibility!(AMen to that Leigh Ashley) and my dolls and playing with my siblings. We were really close.

Me, my brother, and my sister soon after we came back from the HP release party of Deathly Hallows. And yes I am a dork and I was actually reading. I didn't want to put down the book to take a picture lol

Source

{five} name a few of your guilty pleasures.
Starbucks and Wedding Blogs. OBSSESSED!

{six} how early do you start your holiday shopping?
I usually wait till the week of Christmas. Yep, I am that cool :0

{seven} what is a family tradition that you would like to pass on to your significant other/children? I would say the way we open presents. I would want to open stockings Christmas morning while eating our breakfast and then open the rest after we finish eating. Also to open 1 present on Christmas eve. Another tradition is to pass down to the kids once they are old enough and actually here lol these are imagination kids right now (whether it be my own or my nieces and nephews). It is a Thanksgiving contest. Where the kids weigh themselves before they eat and then after and whoever gains the most weight wins. Yep we're fattys.
{eight} what do you consider your greatest achievement? Hmm getting through college, being financially independent, and being able to get a job straight out of college.
{nine} what do you do to pamper yourself? I get massages and my nails done
{ten} if you were to start your own restaurant, what would it be called? Kevin is so much better at this than I. Is there a Love Shack? Im sure there is but if not thats what I would call it. Only because Im too lazy to think of a better answer right now ;)

A Big Happy Birthday to one of my favorite Bloggers! Ashley from Love, Ashely. Go wish her a Happy Birthday and check out her blog if you havent already. She is pretty fantastic. I hope you have a very lovely birthday :)

Slacker? Nope not today

So lately I have been a slacker at work but today I am not doing this...

Source

 

But rather I am a busy bee and have been going non stop at work since 7:30 am. And its a Friday to top it all off. Look at me being productive. So what that means for you all my lovely folks is that there will not be any awesome odd news friday blog entry today. If you really want something to read then you should check out my kick ass blog entry from yesterday if you havent already. Its one of my top 5 entries. :)

Happy Friday!! Tell me your weekend plans! :)

You can't Handle All This Good Stuff!

**LAST CHANCE!!** You have until 11 pm EST (or you can try to sneak it in on thursday early morning) to submit your sports-related questions (or whatever you want to ask) to the blog's token Sports Expert, Kevin (aka my boyfriend aka writer of this awesome blog). Come on...you know you want to, its super simple. Just leave your question in the comment of any blog entry you want to and I will make sure he answers it.**

Okay folks. Happy day after election day!! (That should be an official holiday). CA did pretty well for itself except for Prop 19 and Prop 25 but hey at least Meg Whitman didn't become governor. :) I am happy it is hump day. I am trying my hardest to do at least a little work but failing pretty miserably (oh well).

30 Days of Truth

Day 18: Something you Wish You Hadn't Done in your Life

**okay this is actually Day 21's prompt but the prompt for Day 18-20 are pretty deep and I don't have time to write a very opinionated post right now. Those will need preplanning**

Source

I don't believe in regrets and I am also a big believer in fate and "everything happens for a reason". So even though I have had some shitty events happen to me I wouldn't chnge them. Everything that has happened in ,my life has gotten me to where I am now. I wouldn't want to risk changing anything or thinking of the "what-ifs'" because I am pretty pleased with where I am now. I have a great relationship, loved ones who care for me, and I am in a stable and happy place in my life...Hopefully soon I will have a change of jobs :)

{one} do you still use a checkbook?Yep. I sometimes write checks for my carpool, to pay certain bills, and random emergencies that come up and I can't use my card. I never have cash on me
{two} what size shoe do you wear?6.5-7.5 Depends on the type of shoe.
{three} scary movies or happy endings?I like both., Sometimes I like happy endings but sometimes you just need a good scary movie
{four} do you prefer spontaneity or stability?Stability. I do like spontaneity sometimes but if I had to chose one or the other than it would have to be stability. I would drive myself insane if things weren't stable
{five} what is the most embarrassing cd that you own?Currently? I don't know. I don't really have all my cds...Oh wait!! I know I have CareBears Holiday Hugs cd. I got it like 3 years ago... Yah Im special but i like this CD 

 

{six} do you watch reality tv?Some but not the ones that most people watch. I don't like Jersey Shore or anything like that. I like Project Runway and America's Next Top Model. I also like Wedding reality and food network reality as well.
{seven} what is your favorite home-made meal?My chili. Wait is that cocky to say that? Its yummy ok... mmmmm I guess I also love when I have authentic mexican meals. I just have to get closer to my friends who make them lol

Source

{eight} do you have any allergies?I use to have a lot. Now i am just allergic to vicodin, penicillin, and morphine :) All the good stuff
{nine} if you could open your own restaurant/store, what would it be?Good question. I would like to help open a hookah bar one day. Where it is a hookah lounge with a huge dance floor and bar. On the sides it can have all the couches and canopys and the middle can have the dance floor, a bar (or 2). It would be cool
{ten} would you ever go skydiving (or have you been)?I do want to go skydiving one day

I may or may not be boycotting Facebook..

Yah, I can't really stay away from that social network drug but I am not reading any stalker feeds today and that is because the damn Giants won the World Series (boo and hiss). I am not going to be a witch about it here because that has gotten me in trouble before. All I am going to say is congrats...now the Giants and their fans can go on and on about their one title and make fun of teams with more titles than them (seriously I have seen so many Giants fans being complete douches to the Yankees and the Dodgers). Live it up but you still have less rings than my team (Go Dodgers!)...Okay that is all.
**You still have a chance to "Ask the Sports Expert". Leave your sports (or not) related questions in a comment. On Thursday I will reveal the "expert's" (aka my boyfriend the walking sports encyclopedia) answers/ non-biased opinions. Come on I know you have some!**

So Happy Tuesday everyone, only 4 more days until the weekend (shit its too early to start a weekend countdown?). Today I have a big entry for you because I have been slacking on my 30 Days of Truth and I am also participating in Top Two Tuesday for the first time. So on with the show blog



Today's theme is Favorite Gifts you've Recieved.

This is super hard for me because I have been blessed with great gifts my whole life. I also have a horrible memory so I am sure there are gifts I got when I was younger that I have forgotten.

1) My mom bought me all my dorm room necessities and decorations for my freshman year of college...She even decorated my dorm room for me while I was at a CC meeting  It included the basics ( fridge, microwave, lamp, bed spread) and the extras (tons of posters for the wall, girly pink decorations, shelves, chairs, plates and bowls.) Im just sad that I never took a picture of the room.\

It was pretty similar to this room. Just my room was more open and had a multi-color rug and a pink chair

.

2) Kevin bought me a camera for my birthday this year and that was one of the favorite gifts he has ever gotten me and he has given me some great gifts.

30 Days of Truth

Day 15: Something or Someone you Can't Live Without

I would have to say the very generic but TRUE answer of my loved ones. Seriously, they are the reason I wake up every morning and they are who make me happy. Kevin, my family, my "sisters", and all of my close friends. I think life would suck and be very meaningless if you didn't have loved ones in it.

This is many of my loved ones in one picture :) How can you not love that group right there?

Day 16: Someone or Something you Definitely Could (and Should) Live Without

I have two answers for this.... There are people I could live without... I could live without stupid, rude, inconsiderate, or downright mean people. There are "friends" that I have that I ave been trying to "cut off" but who I just don't know how to tell them "I don;t like you and I don't think we should be friends any longer". Its difficult and I just don' t want to be a bitch. I have 3 friends who I would rather not have in my life anymore.

I could also do without animal poop. I wish there was a way we can make them stop going to the bathroom. I am really bad about cleaning out my cats' litter box or cleaning up my dog's poop. It grosses me out and is on the top of the (very long) list of chores I hate to do.

Day 17: A Book You've Read That Changed Your Views

Oooooo this is tough. Hmmm I read Freakenomics and that made me become way more liberal in my economic views. (BTW an important note is that if you are liberal in economics that means you are fiscally conservative, people often get this backwards). 

Also all of the books I had to read during my philosophy class. I forgot the name of them but I never really stopped and thought about things deeply and they made me think. I know reading Confucius and Plato's philosophical teachings have made me think deeper about life and how I treat others. 

I can't think of that ONE book that changed everything. Most of the books I read in college made me change my views but that was because I was able to think on my own and come up with my own political and social views instead of my parents'.

Best Halloween Weekend Ever...Why do weekends have to end?

Hello All!! I had a great weekend and I hope you all did too. Seriously, this was by far one of the best Halloweens I have ever had! I am just so glad that everything went well. I am so happy that I am not even going to pout about the Giants or any other bad sports stuff that happened this weekend (even though really it mostly was good). I cant wait to read about all of your weekends and see costumes :)

Warning:There may be some pictures in one of my recaps that may be PG...This is my warning :)

(Epic) Weekend Recap

Friday: Chill Night

So Friday we went over to Chris and D-lo's (from HumbleAblog) house and had a nice dinner and hang out time with them, Chris and Rosemary (Ro Ro Ro Your Blog), and James . We ordered pizza and watched the Lakers win(!!). We also had fantastic apple cake that D-lo and Chris made. It was delicious and I usually don't like fruit cakes or pies. It was nice to have girl talk with D-lo and Rosemary. All in all it was a chill night, its too bad that we live 20 minutes away because we left earlier than I wanted to because we were getting tired.

Saturday: Halloween Part 1

 Saturday was a crazy busy day. We got a late start and then we laid around  watching TV (me Grey's Anatomy and him Step Brothers). We had a lot of shopping to do for our last minute costumes because thats how we roll. It was a lot of fun going to the mall and shopping with Kevin even if we were a bit grumpy because of hunger (we are like little kids in that way). I might have spent a little bit too much on new makeup :) But hey its the price of beauty right. Then I got little booty shorts, a baseball tee, socks, and black out strips for my costume. Kevin got a button up shirt and a tie for his costume.

At the party we went to Saturday night they had a little photo section set up. Pretty nifty

For Halloween I was a sexy baseball player :) and Kevin was Don Draper from Mad Men (well for Saturday). 

That night we went to a party with our friends, Vero and Carlos (pictured above). It was about 45 minutes away from where we live and we only knew Vero and Carlos but it was still chill and a lot of fun. Except when the crappy band played but luckily the cops shut that down pretty quickly. I liked the party because everyone got really into it and the costumes were fantastic and original. There was some intense dedication like tis one dude shaved half his head for a costume. My camera was of course dead on Saturday so Im waiting for my friend to post the pictures on facebook. We have a really good one with Lady Gaga :) After the party we went to Denny's and then home to pass out at 4 am.

Sunday: Sports Day and Halloween Part 2

So on Sundays I never sleep in because I always forget to fix my fantasy  football teams (which by the way I am doing pretty good in). Anyway I woke up at 7:45 (yay for 3.5 hours of sleep) and fixed my team and then took my dog for a walk in his halloween costume. 

        Funny park story, I ran into these three little kids (probably about 4-6 years old) and they asked "is that a dog?" and the mom told them "yes, he is wearing a lobster costume for Halloween. You know how you wear costumes? Well dogs can too." little kids "Coool!!!" Aww so cute.

PeeWee loved his walk and then I came home got settled in and watched the games and browsed the web while Kevin slept on the couch. Perfect Sunday morning/afternoon for me. 

Kevin may or may not kill me for putting this up. But isnt he adorable with the pink blanket and his jersey?

 

Typical Sunday at my place. You have to have at lease two screens to watch the game on. 

Obviously the Chargers listened to my letter to them because they won yesterday. And maybe just maybe if they win out for the rest of the season they might be able to make it to the playoffs (yah don't worry Im not holding my breath). There were quite a few great football games on yesterday and Im glad I got to see them. Oh and then after the Charger game we went and watched Kevin's brother in law play ice hockey at the rink right by our house. It was fun even though they lost and we were bad luck for them (the opposing team won 4-3 and they scored 1 of their goals right when we walked in...his team was up 3-1 when we got there...yah bad luck)

"Sexy" Baseball Player

 

 

Sunday night from 8 pm-12:30 am we were at an AWESOME Halloween party at my hookah lounge. It was super cool. It was me, Kevin, Cathy, her boyfriend David, and Lori. It was a lot of fun...one of the best Halloween parties I ever went to. There was hookah, good music, dancing, and great company. I'll let the pictures tell you the rest :)

Dodger Player (or smurf ;P )

That's right we went matchy for Sunday night 

Just chillaxing and smoking some hookah

Baseball Player and "Scary Pittsburgh fan"

They are so cute. She was Freddy Kruger (she had a hat and the hand) and he was a zombie or something like that

Dance party!! (yah we are dressed hoochie but I wear less at the beach :P)

The boys, up to no good.

The girls...looking hot :) (and Im apparently getting molested as well)

All in All it was a great weekend...Except I pouted like this when the Giants won ;)

How was your weekend? What did you do for Halloween? What were you?

P.S. Sorry about the excess of pictures and the long ass entry. I just dont know how to shut up
