A birthday celebration

Oh Downtown Disney, how you exasperate me.

We went to Ralph Brennan's Jazz Kitchen. Far better than Rainforest Cafe f'sho.

Hit the bar beforehand for drinks at the Grand Californian Hotel. This Californian disapproves of their prices.

Mom's day treats

Photos from Mother's Day?! Why, that was over a month ago?

I'm really good at falling behind on stuff.

Anyway, I made dinner reservations for 2 at a restaurant my mom picked out. My brother ended up driving down from the Bay Area last minute. We didn't expect him to come down since he said he had to play a concert Saturday night, but he ended up leaving right after his concert and drove all night to make it down, scaring my mom in the morning when she walked into the kitchen Sunday morning and he was there.

Beach Day

Leanne and April picked up me and VV Saturday morning so we could all go to my favorite Orange County beach. It was cloudy and a bit chilly when we first got to the beach so I dragged them out to the rocks to climb around and look at the tidepools.


look at the fat starfish!


he had a little mermaid towel with him, too


helicopter


i like playing with sandcrabs

After we finished climbing around the rocks it actually got really sunny and warm. Perfect for lounging around. VV and I actually ventured into the waves while April and Leanne decided to devote all their time to the sand.

Afterward, we went to Guppy House to satisfy our smoothie/slushy cravings. Perfect end to a perfect afternoon.

I'm at the hotel in VA now. I had too much beer and I SAW MY FIRST REAL LIVE FIREFLY EVARRRR so exciting. Anyway, need to get to sleep now. It's past 2AM here!

Cravings

First two photos: I wanted Peruvian food. VV obliged me.

Second two photos: We were planning on going to the beach on Saturday so on Friday I made spam musubi. VV doesn't like nori (whaaaaaat) so I attempted to wrap them with egg. Ended up being kind of messy.

Doing some offline "blogging" right now while I'm on the plane. Going to copy and paste these suckers when I get an internet connection!

Cultured artistic types will soon be visiting my home. And I will be receiving a large inheritance.

I think I've overdosed on fortune cookies. VV took home a large bag from picnic over two weeks ago and we still haven't gotten through it.

We're traveling again tomorrow. And tomorrow is Damon's birthday! He will be 31 years old. Older than me fo lyfe.

Am still stressed and perpetually sleepy. Except at night. When I should be sleeping.

Today == packing. Tomorrow == waking up before 6am, probably.

Unsleepified

Being sleepless and reading my own blog archives from 5/2001 on. Holy crap it's weird reading about stuff pre-9/11.

Dude I was/am such a bizarre kid. I read my old crap and it's just so..meh. Why didn't I write anything important down?

Anyway, I'm pretty sure that my current lack of blog posts is at least partially due to twitter. Now that there's a quick and easy outlet for 1 to 2 line witticisms there is no real need to post such things on my blog. I think such posts made up maybe half of my blog back in its heyday.

Well, back to reading archives and waiting for the sleeping pill to kick in.

Oh, and happy falker sather's day to all you big daddies out there. Congratulations on shooting a load with purpose!

ROY(W)GB(IV)

BITCH. MOAN.

Finally pulled my Lady Gaga mp3s off the Amazon cloud (thanks to Skim for giving me the heads up on the 99 cent sale!) and there are 3 songs I'm really liking off of her new album:

  1. Scheiße (if I were Kim Cattrall (or Samantha Jones even!) I would know how to pronounce this but I'm not, so I don't)
  2. Government Hooker (you must look up the Thierry Mugler AW2011 preview)
  3. Heavy Metal Lover (I don't have a blonde south but I do have a whiskey mouth (sometimes))

That is all. For now.

A better June. And July

This June I have found myself under a ton of bricks. I have to dig myself out with a toothpick. Here are some things I'd rather be doing:

  • Hibernating.
  • Holing myself up in bed with lots of wine and watching every TV show I have on DVD
  • Holing myself up in bed with lots of wine and watching every TV show I have on DVD and then hibernating.

In other words, I'd rather not leave the house for the next two months. My head is tired.

Barely there

i look ghastly but the photo itself is beautiful. 2 eprops for vv


the button you press if you want a beating

I'm so stressed out it's making it difficult to be social. Especially since it's making me have some pretty extreme mood swings.

Poor VV.

It totally didn't dawn on me that it's already June (despite the fact I've written dates on various things since it's begun) until I saw some banner with the date "June 4th" on it and I was like "WAIT A SECOND THAT'S TODAY". I think I've just been really wiped out lately...ugh. I want to hibernate for the next two months.

---

On a related note, HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY BUBBLE BOY. His birthday was a few days ago but I've been really shitty about birthdays lately. Congrats to him on being fuckin' old!

Virginia-fied

More travel photos from April. Sorry it's been slow...work has been kind of hectic. I want to crawl into a hidey-hole and stay there for maybe a month. Maybe two.


vv's cousin's kid with vv's ds: why is yours so small?


choo choo blackberry

VV is watching the Stanley Cup finals. I'm not sure who I want to win this year!
