Had a great day....
Woke up at my parents beach house (well I drove there yesterday and then woke up there today) and hung around the house a bit. Then the Big C (Caesar) asked me to meet him and his brother down at his fishing spot. Just when I didn't think you could get much further south in Maryland I drove 40 minutes to find him tucked away at a sweet little fishing spot in what I would call the deep deep south of Maryland. Anyway - great afternoon. Chillin in the back of his honkin-ass pick up truck with a Coors light and a really big (dead) Stingray. I have pictures to prove it.
I'm such a girl. I totally fell for the "you look so pretty today" that came along with him handing me his big warm fuzzy sweatshirt to wear. Ugh! So nice. Compliments + Coors Light + Stingray (dead) + warm fuzzy sweatshirt = A+ afternoon. Still wearing the warm fuzzy sweatshirt. I think it's gonna be mine now.....
For my Memorial Day weekend I'm doing NOTHING. I was in Mexico last weekend and I'm going to Highpoint, NC next weekend. This weekend I'm just chillin'. I had more then a few options to go out of town, a few BBQs, some parties, but all I can think of is reading a book by the pool ALONE. So that's what I did today. My friend Jen and her boyfriend are out of town. They live in this super snazzy condo building where there are NO KIDS in the clean pool and a washer and dryer. This clean pool has maybe 4 people at a time laying out so I can be fat in a bikini and not worry about 16 year old thin girls gawking. NICE. So I have spent today recovering from a hang over by the pool with a book. All while waiting for my laundry to dry. My only house sitter responsibilities are watering the plants and giving the cat clean water & treats. I think I'm going to call this a vacation...
I'm going to make Cicada flip flops. Cory sent me this interesting article on 17 things to do with Cicadas:

Ok I have to fold now. I'm going to think about the Cicada flip flops some more.
Holy shit I just saw pictures of Cory's leg on Courtney's website. Fuck if I ever break a Femur! www.datathoughts.com
Well I am extremely exhausted right now and I don't have too much energy to write but I feel the need to write anyway. I'm going to go with it, as they say.
I've had back paid for a week. I shouldn't bitch. My stalkee, Cory is lying in bed with a leg that's been snapped in half - FROM THE TOP!
Gotta get a Latte - I'm zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz..............
Oh my -- it's been so long.
Ok well the cicada problem is getting worse. They are EVERYWHERE now. Just this morning as I was walking from the front door of my parents house to my car I almost got hit by 3 of them. The thing is that they are SLOW so you can usually dodge them unless you're flying around a corner or something. The bottom line is I'm OVER IT. I watched one poor Cicada cling for dear life to my windshield wiper this morning while on the highway. He kept trying to get underneath the wiper so he could be blocked from the wind. I was partly sad believe it or not. If they aren't cicada-cide-ing then they are being squished by tires and I just can't take it any more. Not sure how much more time this full cicada cycle will take but I think it's only supposed to last 2 weeks. Pray for me...
What's with the gas prices. It took me $30 to fill up my car the other day. Not nice. Not nice at all.
Just got back from a short trip to Mexico for my cousins wedding. She got married at a mission near Rosarito, Mexico. It's called La Califia I believe. It was a sweet set up on a cliff overlooking the pacific. Very impressive. I did a lot of partying and really feel like I need a good detox. I took a bunch of pictures. Wish I could share some on here but I think that might be impossible.
The weather in Mexico was actually cold. It was like 60 when we landed in San Diego on Thursday and not much warmer the rest of the weekend. I packed a suit case full of tube tops, dresses, shorts, and mini skirts. I wore the jeans I wore on the plane and my cousin Dillon's sweat shirt the entire vacation. I'm bummed about the lack of a tan but the trip was so fun I don't care.
Cory if you're reading this my thoughts are with you and your bottle of pain killers.
I saw Cicada bodies all over the sidewalk outside of my condo this morning. It's starting. I nearly puked. GROSS! More later.
I'm really mad right now because I had a whole thing-a-ma-jiggy written and my f'ing computer froze. I cannot repeat it all due to my current anger and frustration......
Bottom line:
Hang over from yesterday was actually A COLD
Went to a fun yet sucky softball game filled with team spirit
Decided I should go to bed because I had too much "decaf coffee" at the game
Wedding planners are doing well...just met Mr. Wedding planner
Angry with my computer and going to bed.....
Mad-J
I went to a wedding on Saturday. It was for Pat & Sara who are the first ones to "go down" out of the group. It was kind of weird. Everyone looked so incredibly beautiful though. All the boys who normally wear jeans, t-shirts, and sneakers all had on suits and coordinating tie/shirt combos. It was great. The girls all gussied up with thier shaved their legs for the event. Pretty dresses and matching purses were the talk of the evening. (I was in all pink. Miss Piggy style!) Anyway - today I am paying for having that much fun. I feel like poop and I'm getting ready to crawl in to bed and watch a really really girlie flick. So have to go....
