Sorry for the not posting, but life has been crazy. I went and saw Cobra Starship tonight and they were ~*awesome*~ - Anywho, their keytarist got her laptop stolen, here's her entry for more details:

So! My ears are ringing and my eyes hurt and I think I need to IV Gatorade into my veins from all the water loss that I personally got. Time for bed!

I almost met with the sperm donor today.

Almost.

What stopped this potentially lulzy meeting was the fact that my cousins called me FREAKING OUT, because he looked one of them up and called him at work, saying that I gave him my cousin's work number (which I didn't), and that I told him that my brother's been missing since December (which I didn't and he isn't). I'm glad that they called to tell me this, because they saved me from anymore trouble. I told his super BFF to stop calling me, no he hasn't changed and that's all I can say in Spanish, to wait on my great aunt for the rest of what I need to say, which is nothing more than "Stop wasting my time and go straight to hell. Do not pass Purgatory. Do not collect $200."

I really hope he enjoyed burning his bridge to me and pissing on the ashes. I can't believe I was so stupid..

Lil Wayne starts playing in the radio for the one millionth time today, I sigh in exasperation and turn the dial, while saying, "Why is Lil Wayne still relevant??"

Nick: Why don't they shoot him into the sun?

So! I've had glasses going on 3 years and I've grown tired of pushing my glasses up, and just how they look on me. I decided to get my first pair of contacts and let me tell you internets, they're a hassle. I mean, they weren't at first, I was a pro contact putter on-er, or whatever and taker off-er...You get the idea. I knew my stuff.

Then I get home, and after the time I was allowed to have them on, I tried taking them off and wow was it obnoxious. I had my solution all ready to go and then I was going to do what the Optometrists assistant suggested and nothing. I. did. worked.

So after wrestling with my eyeballs for about 15 minutes, I finally get them out. That's okay, I dig a challenge, and I really am tired of glasses for now, so it's a good trade off...At least until I can afford Lasik.

AND HOW WAS YOUR DAY?

It is now hour #2 and the idiots who live downstairs and have no concept that there are other people living in the complex are still playing REGGAETON like it's going out of style! I'm totally saving up for July so we can get back to Davie. I hate this place so hard.

The point of this meme is to share 25 random facts about yourself and then tag five other people to do the same.

1. Though I love the series, initially I had never even heard of Phoenix Wright. Infact, the only reason I know of it, was because Andres gave Nick a copy of it for his birthday, which Nick later "lent" me to try. I've possessed it ever since.

( insert witty comment here )

Oh man, you guys, I started reading Twilight last August, because everyone was googly eyed over it and basically saying "YOU MUST READ THIS - IT'S A WONDERFUL LOVE STORY!!"

So like the tool that I am, I buy the first and second book, respectively. I would have bought the last two books, but Nick in his infinite wisdom said "What if you don't like the first book?"

"Poppycock!" I puffed, "These books are literal gold, I mean, really - How wrong can a bunch of people be?"

Dead wrong, but that's not the point (yet). I left the other two books, only to see that I got the whole set from his cousins for my birthday. I squeed with glee and passed around the first two books at my job to share the love.

After a busy birthday week, I opened the Twilight book and began reading and it was boring at first, but then became a guilty pleasure. It was an easy read that wrapped up pretty decently. Alice is really the only redeeming character in the book. I would complain about Edward Cullen turning into a Christmas ornament every time he decides to step in the sun, but honestly? That was my selling point. If nothing else, I knew I could laugh at that.

So I'm currently reading the second book and Edward breaks it off with Bella and never in the 17 years that I've been reading books have I ever encountered such an annoyingly depressing heroine. I'm a quarter of a way done and she's still lopping around, and crying. Edward was pretty creepy in the first book, but in this one he's a creepy douche. Sneaking into Bella's house and throwing away all the stuff he gave her. Bella's "My life doesn't matter anymore because my creepy alabaster god is no longer with me ;_;" 'tude makes me want to claw my eyes out.

I heard it'll get better, but I also heard that this was the greatest love story ever told and we all know how that's turning out so far. Still, though I'll continue to read it, in the hopes that at least the 2nd half of this book gets better, along with the last two.

Well, I can say, without any hyperbole that not since 2000 have I been so happy to see a year go.

Seriously, with the exception of getting Trouble & Gabbi, our 1 year wedding anniversary, and my cousin getting married, this year has been horrible and I'm so happy that come midnight tomorrow, it'll be a memory.

Here's hoping that 2009 is tons better!

This will be our last night in Hialeah. Well, voluntarily at least.

The boxes were never really unpacked, and we'll be gathering essentials and moving in to Plantation tomorrow. We won't have internet for a little over a week at the most (Bellsouth says a week, but I'm betting almost 2). Best way to get in touch with me (Nick will still have access to the internet during his job) would be by phone.

We're stoked, the apartment is smaller, but much, much nicer. Seriously, this place seems almost too good to be true. Our major moving day will be Saturday, and there will be plenty of awesomeness to be had. We also want our kitties back, dammit. They've been staying with their grandma until tomorrow.

Here's hoping the dust settles fast enough and we all get together soon.

See you guys!

I will open this entry with a question, poised to whoever reads this:

Good god, were we all extremely obnoxious when we were 17-18 years old?

I know for a fact that I was no angel, when I went with Cristy, Nora, and Ana to see Titanic at the dollar theater and we would laugh and talk throughout the movie. The latter wearing paper Titanic hats and sneaking Taco Bell into the theater, while throwing lids like Frisbees (I missed out on a bit, eh?).

Tonight, Nick and I went to have Flanigans for dinner, more to Nick's insistence than anything. I wanted to stay home and relax. Less than 10 minutes later, my desire to sloth the night away was thoroughly justified in the form of a group of loud, rowdy teenagers. The Queen Bee, bounced on in and sat in a chair, not too far from Nick and I, proudly proclaiming, "Look! I have the Queen's chair!!!"

I sigh, and give Nick the, "Dude, I told you so" look. Not long after, the hostess comes and seats us and gets our orders for drinks and appetizers. Not long after, waiters are arranging tables for what seems like a large party.

Aw. Fuck.

The orgy of teens come and sit next to us. Still chatting loudly, only now they're wearing paper animal masks and taking pictures with their digital cameras. Not being old enough to order liquor, they order Shirley Temples and loudly brag this to each other, "Why do they call them Shiiirley Temmmples???" A chorus of "I don't know" follows and random proclamations of one of them wanting to fuck their waiter popped up (and I swear I wasn't straining to hear, this is shit I couldn't help hearing). They then starting to warble songs that came on from the jukebox as loud as they could. I never wanted to get out of there as quickly as I did tonight.

Maybe I'm turning into an old fart, but I seriously don't remember people our age being this obnoxious. I'm not saying people of our generation were saints. God, no. In fact, I just had a flashback, where I sat in the front of the school bus I went to and played Hanson and Jewel on full blast in a bus full of chongas (...that was awesome).
..But I don't remember being this big of a tool.

All this being said or typed, do you think you were obnoxious when you were a teen? What was the worst thing that you did?

So, I went to Publix to pick up some stuff, and I went to the produce isle:

Cue, PPG (Psycho Produce Guy):

PPG: HI MISS, HOW ARE YOOOU TODAY?!?!
Me: :) I'm fine, thanks, and yourself?
PPG: OH I'VE BEEN BETTER, I CAN'T BELIEVE I HAVE TO WORK ON THE 4TH.
Me:... :( Sorry...*grabs lemons (which I found out later were moldy) and skutters off*

I realized as I get to the register that I forgot the OJ that Nick wanted. I sigh to myself and make way back to the produce, where I see PPG give the same dribble to other customers.

I sigh, get my OJ and leave.

I really miss the Davie Publix.

This week: Wanted & Wall*E:

Wanted
If you want to spend $7-10 to see something so unbelievably predictable and absurd, then Wanted is perfect for you!

Wall*E
I've never seen a movie so touching that used so little words.

Up Next: The Dark Knight.

So, is AIM acting especially assy to anyone else tonight? Or are me and Nick just this special and unique?

Me and Nick just got back from our date night only to find a creepy old man with a crowbar lurching about...

Yay Hell-hole-liah...?

Here you go, guys:

Leave a comment and I will:
1) tell you why I friended you,
2) associate you with something - fandom, a song, a color, a photo, etc.,
3) tell you something I like about you,
4) tell you a memory I have of you,
5) ask something I've always wanted to know about you,
6) tell you my favorite user pic of yours,
7) in return, you must post this in your LJ

So after this entry, and spending some time with the baby girls, I'm going to pack what I can and make a trip down to Hialeah. This should be awesome. If anyone wants to come - it's 8:35 now, call me within the next hour and win a Paris Hilton cd I'll pick you up and we can enjoy the Chonga Captial of South Florida.

Edit: I'll be going down around 2 in the afternoon, so the offer still stands.

Trouble and Gabbi love playing with their mommy.

Only thing is that they love playing with her while she's asleep, or trying to sleep. Some fun examples include: my legs being jumped on, my toes nibbled, and climbing all over me.

The best part though, is feeling them cuddle to my leg and falling asleep.

and now I take my deathflu (tm) to the room and enjoy playing with the kids.

So, yesterday after we kitty proofed the house, we let out Trouble and Gabbi. They were really sorta skittish and anti-social. Seriously, they were fascinated by the litter box and toilet (we put the litter box in the bathroom we don't use).

Much to our delight, they started exploring more and much to our dismay it was straight to the wires. Trouble likes to chew cords (which we've since moved) and Gabbi likes to jump into spaces where the video game stuff is. She is definitely Nick's cat.

They are sleeping right now under the Nintendo Light (which is safe, since it's unplugged and sturdy). I took pictures of that and will have them posted, but for now, here's a few from last night, enjoy!

Nick and I are the proud parents of 2 kittens: Trouble and Gabby!

Anyone wanna guess which one is going to be "mommy's girl"?
