He's Totally Worth It.




Tax refund. Stimulus Check. Drive to California. No sleep. Pick up poop. Potty pads in my new house. Sienna living in the closet. Sick. Pick up poop. Wet dog food. No sleep. Petsmart. Biting. Chewing. Crate. Whining. Crying. Pick up poop. Baby gate. Toys. Bones. Barking. Pee. Bargh. Chasing. Laundry. Pick up poop. No sleep. Heart and soul.

Unconditional love.

Sir. Gordon. Snacks. A. Lot.

Meet Gordon



It's official. This is the little fluff monster that will be coming home to me one week from tomorrow.

(insert ohhhs and ahhhs here)

Today I leave for the beach with the family and we're making a stop at IKEA on the way back to get some last minute items needed for my place. I make the big SOLO move next week. I get the keys on Monday and need to be settled by Thursday.

I am also making this post a CALL FOR MOVERS. I've got some hefty items that I will need some assistance with on Thursday. All you need to volunteer is a muscle or two and a smile. I'll provide the beer :)

I Heart Pep



This post is dedicated to my mother who made the adorable puppy cupcakes pictured above. These puppies (haha) were a big hit at the shower last weekend.

I love you, ma. Thank you for all that you do for me.

I know I'm worth it :) J K J K!

Two Degrees of Lohan




So last night I decided I was 21 again and went to the new QUACK! Pool Party at Palms Place. They fill the pool with thousands of rubber duckies. Samantha Ronson (Lohan's are-they-or-aren't-they girlfriend) was Dj'ing and I was out with Lindsay Lile so therefore, I was pretty much partying with Lindsay Lohan last night.

Happy Birthday America Re-Cap






It was a dream come true to have the 4th fall on a Friday this year for everyone in the corporate world. I took advantage of it by avoiding the 115 degrees heat and heading to Costa Mesa, CA to visit B.F.F.'s Lisa and Clayton for the long weekend. Boyfriend and I showed up around 10 p.m. Thursday night to a tie-dye party. Awesome. It was dark which made the mystery of how our shirts would turn out even more fun. Props to Hille for the originality of that one.
Friday we rode bikes down to Newport Beach and WOW. I have never seen anything like it. I've never done Spring Break but I would imagine it's just like this. The sidewalks were packed with guys and gals in nothing but their bathing suits and streets were closed for all the bikes. We made a stop on the boardwalk for an afternoon Corona and ice cream cone before relaxing on the sand.
Saturday was spent snacking, boozing and playing Cranium until we went to this bar, Avalon, for THE BROWN BAG SPECIAL. That's right, kids, a 32 oz. of Miller High Life for $5.
Sunday we went to the "Second Oldest Frisbee Golf Course" for a quick game. This was my first game of Flof and I've got to admit, my aim was pretty off at first but around Hole 4, I started to get the hang of it. I figure this was good practice for...GORDON!
Oh yes, the puppy update. I pick him out on Friday and he should be here around July 25th. Puppy shower is this Saturday, coverage to come.

It's Hot Here.



That is what I am officially blaming my lack of blogging on.
