The Big “D”

May 9, 2007

Good times in Dallas, aka Big D! The drive was long but still we had a blast. I did get my pic with Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku girls! WOOHOO!! I am the coolest!!

Our hotel room was awesome, except for Sunday morning when I awoke to a stain on a pillow! OMG! Reminds me of my long lost Seester’s blog A Trip to the Big Easy HOLY COW! All I know is this big round ball pillow was on my bed and when my friend Kelly woke up it was on the floor and she saw this stain that looked like it was semen! EWWW!!! AND there were blood stains on her sheets! I mean heck. When you are coming in late at night, drunk, and tired you don’t really pay much attention. So when we woke up to our surprise….GROSS! My friend Kelly called downstairs and complained and we get $50 knocked off our bill!

Here are some pics from the Gwen concert. I hope this works for people to see my pics. Also, notice that I have added a page to my blog page called “Gallery” right under my About page. This has a link to my Gallery Album. Right now I only have the pics from the concert but check it often, everyday, to see what I have added from time to time and feel free to leave comments. I love comments! :) Let me know if you guys have any problems at all viewing my photos.

And for those that are curious. Yes, “He-that-shall-not-be-mentioned” has returned home. Yes, I have seen him. He stopped by on Saturday morning as he was driving in. I wasn’t expecting him at all. He hung out until I had to leave to get my girls off to the zoo and for me to get finished packing for my Dallas trip. It was kinda strange to see him. I was excited in a way but also a little set back and nervous at the same time. He also took me to eat lunch on Monday and to buy me some cool ass lamps for my house. Right now, I am fine with things. I’m not getting all wrapped up in the emotions at this point. I’m not saying that I want to be his best bud and hear about his dates or new girlfriend(s). I doubt I ever will be able to be that kind of friend with him. But for the time being I am fine with things. BUT there is a very very big chance that you guys will one day see a blog where I am upset once again, but this will be my own fault. I’m hoping to be strong though. I CAN DO THIS! ;)

I know I’ve been MIA for a bit! Been crazy busy around here. Seems as if I am just always on the go. But I have taken 1/2 day off tomorrow and all day off on Monday. WOOHOO! What to do with myself.

My brother is home from Iraq. He’s only here for 2 weeks but still, it’s so good to see him and have him finally! I just hope that we can spend some time with him while he is here. I know he has lots of people that are wanting to see him, between his kids, mom, dad, me, friends, etc. I think we might be running him a bit thin on time for even himself. He needs to have time to himself too but I just can’t help but be a bit selfish at times, I guess.

I won’t get to spend time with him this weekend because I bought tickets to a concert months ago that just happens to be while he is here. I get to drive to Dallas to see Gwen Stefani! I’M SO EXCITED! Except for the fact that I am soooo broke and really can’t afford this but heck, I bought the darn tickets back in February. I should have saved for this. OH WELL!!! I’m gonna have a blast! I will post pics I am sure.

And another note. He that shall not be mentioned is coming home this weekend. Thank goodness that I’m going to be out of town. PHEW!!! But then we have next week when I will be home. I’m sure I will see him which this I am so nervous about. I have been really good lately. I haven’t been mopping (sp?) around the house because of him, due to my “Right now plan” but he has been far away. Once I see his face, that’s gonna be the true test. I have faith that I will do fine but friends seem to think differently and they seem to know me pretty darn well. I will keep you guys posted on that one.

So I have a couple of pics I want to share with you guys.

This here is a cover of a local magazine here in my little home town. I’ve blocked out the title or any other things on this cover to save some peoples pride. BUT can you guys see what is wrong in this pic? The kicker is “Partners in Education” and they obviously don’t know how to do math all that well. ;) Made me almost tinkle in my big girl panties. HA HA
