I know I haven't posted in forever. Mostly due to the lack of having something to say. My life is kind of humdrum at the moment. I don't mind it most days but on occasion I get a little down on myself. I think its a mix of weather and just being human. I do have lots of fun and go alot but I'm so tired of winter.Its dragging me down. I've never been this affected by winter. I work and go to school and hang out with my friends. A few things I'm looking forward to are my Vegas vacation (only a week away) and season tickets for the Tigers! Come the fall I'll be done with school as far as hfcc is concerned but I'm trying to get into Schoolcraft and finish off there. I've decided I'm going to concentrate more on pasrty when I start there. Also on a good note I finally got my vacation and benefits at work. So thats my life in a brief paragraph. *hugs*

Today we put my dog to sleep. She was in pain and losing blood badly. It was such a hard decision and in the end it was the best thing for her. I will always love my dog. She was the best pet I've ever had.

Umm I forgot the directions for this but they are on angeline's journal. So yeah you can get them from there. hehe

1. What is your ultimate goal in life and what led you to this decision? 
I want to be a well know chef or at least have a popular bakery. I've always loved cooking and baking. Ever since I was a little girl in the kitchen with my mom I've liked it.

2. When you were a kid, what did you want to do when you grew up and is it any different then your goals now? 
When I was yonger I wanted to be a teacher but after working in the field I realized it was just not for me. I love kids but I didn't enjoy working with them.

3. Who is the one person you'd drop everything for, move for or change your life for, and what makes this person so special to do this? Well its not anyone person. I would move for my family. I have a very close family. I'd move for them.

4. If you could be any animal for one day, what would it be, and why? hmm... maybe a dog like my dog. She is sooo pampered and gets whatever she wants. lol

5. You have a choice between 10 million dollars and true love, which one do you pick, and why? I'd pick true love and why because I'm a hopeless romantic and believe in true love and happily ever afters.

            SEE YOU ALL TONIGHT!!!! HUGS AND KISSES!!! 
      TIME TO PARTY AND GET OUR DRINK ON...
lol I am such a dork.

Since I am  going to be open and blunt i will add a disclaimer to this post. Said disclaimer * These are my thoughts not yours you can ignore them agree with them or even bitch about them I don't care*

First things first as stated in my brief post and comment on Jenda's journal. 
Jenda and Shaun- I had an awesome time and I enjoyed myself very much. I have no beef with either of you. So rock on! 
moving on...

Angeline- We never really got along and I actually felt like you had ill feelings towards me but I enjoyed hanging out with you on Saturday. Feel free to attend my b-day.

Alex- I am disappointed. I left saturday night/ sunday morning feeling as though things were being resolved and that a friendship was going to be re-established. Then last night I see your post saying that I am doing this because of my birthday.....! So not true. I have been saying for a few weeks now that I missed you and wanted to hang out with you.I even had Bouncers call you last saturday to come hang out. Then I called you but was told to hang up because you were sleeping. I was trying to be sincere and felt like I was only being mocked and that is upsetting. 

Jessi- So your the hardest for me.I know that you and I can have this amazing friendship but you never want to admit anything. I was also being soooo sincere with you and then I hear as you are leaving that you said "drama drama drama." That was just hurtful.I guess I just have to accept that I will always be the one to :"start shit " and that is not the case. You know I have a problem with Neil. I have said that you a few times. I'll adress him next. If you feel the same as Alex about my impending birthday.... all I can say is that I had been telling Robert that I wanted to talk you and he said its not a smart idea but I believe at the core people are good. Thats how I feel about you. You are a good person maybe just slightly misguided. I say that because things were fine. We were partying and then in a flash you turned coat and I was just left standing there confused.

Neil- I'm sure you are the one that I piss off the most. Especially after all of this. Neil, I think the way you talk down to Jessi is the harshest I have ever heard. I have sat there and heard you guilt her into so many things. I do also see the good things that you have done and I know you have a big heart but it gets eclipsed by the bad.Furthermore, I know you will pick these comments to death. You always want to be the man with the answers and sometimes you may just not have them. That should be ok. We are all only human, ya know? You have such an overbearing personality at times that it makes it hard to get to know you. The few times that we did just sit and talk things were great. 

These are the people I felt it was nessecary to say something to. I was going to make a bunch of calls. I decided this way if you don't want to respond then you don't have to. If you do feel free to give me a call (313-586-2434) or leave a comment on here. c'est la vie!

O M G !!!!!!!  I am so excited! I have been wanting to go to a Tigers game all season but I hadn't been able to get tickets. They are constantly sold out or have really crummy seats/ standing room only. But then today my luck changed. I was just sitting reading a book minding my own business. My Mom comes in and tells me that my neighbor has two tickets for tomorrow nights game. 2 $50 tickets for 50 bucks. So I say that I want them. They look to be AWESOME seats. Section 131 A seats 3 and 4. Right behind the Tigers dugout! I am sooooo excited. Plus we have food vouchers too! Anyway so if your watching look for me! I'll be there. Who knows I could be on tv. :-D This is my birthday present to myself. Eventhough my birthday is like a month away. lol Ok I think that is all for now.
I must find my hat....

I'm just gonna add to the ranting about Transformers already on your friends page and say! O M G!!!!! What an AWESOMELY AMAZING FANTABULOUS movie. I will for sure go see it again and be buying it on the dvd release date too! Everything was great. The story was good the action was awesome. It was funny but not in a dumbed down kind of way. Which I thought was pretty cool. The special effects best I've ever seen. This may have been the best movie I have EVER seen. I have never left a movie and jusy said WOW! That was awesome. I even had forgotten to blink at one point. Plus an added bonus Detriot was part of it all. If you have not seen Transformers yet. Stop reading the nonsense we all post on LJ and go see it. :)

p.s. Jenda I thought it was so funny that you noticed that was not the roof of the train station. lol Robert and I said that too.

I told Thad yesterday I would post this for him since he said he would post it on lj but doesn't know his password anymore. He and I went to lunch yesterday at Famous Dave's (YUM).As we were driving west on eureka there was a cop sitting in the Walgreen's parking lot. Thad pointed it out and off he went. Flying through the parking lot and onto telegraph. We watched as we sat at the red light. A car pulled into Taco Bell and proceeded to the drive thru. Not a good plan the cop pulled him over in the drive thru line. lol There ya go Thad! 

On a side note I'll be going to the detroit fireworks on wednesday. Where will I be? On top of the Marriot in the Milder Center.Oh yeah bithces... in a cabana with all drink and food I can handle. :-) Yay! Its gonna be so much fun! I'm excited. This is the first time I've been to the fireworks downtown.I'm going with Robert, Nick, Cheryl Lynn (not sure if thats how she spells it) and other people from Urban Science. http://www.cotsdetroit.org/cots/fireworks.wml?section=fireworks theres a link to all the festivities...

Later!

This weekend was nice. It was quick but I had a decent time for the most part. I didn't really do alot but thats cool. Sometimes those are the nicer weekends right? Anyways so friday wasn't much of anything. Thad and I were going to go to the movies but the movie was already pulled from theaters. So we didn't do that. Later Robert and I got together and watched all the tv that we missed from going to the Brandi Carlile concert on Wednesday. I was never a big fan of Brandi and was more so going because he wanted to (she's his fav). After seeing her I can say that I really like and appreciate her music more. Plus the opener was a guy that does a song called Blues Eyes from the Garden State soundtrack, Carey Brothers. So that was really cool. 
Saturday we were going to go and see Hellogoodbye but the seats were bad and uncomfortable so we didn't stay. Instead we went and saw my UPS man (Jaye) at  Amsterdam Espresso.Its a little coffee house near Wayne State. He was there doing his solo act called Rogue Satelites. It was alright. He might need a little more conficence as a solo act but it was alright.He's also in another band called Apartment 4. Check em out they have a myspace. www.myspace.com/apartment4 He was happy to see me there since I had told him that I wasn't going to be able to make it. Afterwards I called Thad to see if he wanted to bowl but that fell through yet again.
Today I chilled with the fam. We got my flowers and a card for mothers day then took her out to dinner. It was a nice day.
So I know that people change and go there seperate ways and as much as that sucks I guess its something we all have to deal with and I am.... I just have to realize that people aren't always going to be the person you knew back then. Oh well I guess its ok. I mean I know lots of people that deal with this. It just sucks when you try to keep the friendship the way it was to see it get turned around. C'est la vie.

Hey all! Just felt like updating and saying that I had a great weekend. It was very relaxing. I didn't do much and I enjoyed it! Thats what matters to me. Usually on the weekend I'm going here or there and always looking for something else to do.Well not this past weekend. I didn't do much. Helped out here and there and just chilled. Watched the wings and tigers both win! yay go wings! They are now in the second round of the play-offs and the tigers played and won a very exciting game.I was supposed to go to a dinner for work but I didn't make it. Lost track of time on saturday. Oh well. I heard it was nice.
I was a little irritated earlier today but its my fault for not saying something but I will speak up soon if this carries on. Somethings and some people just confuse me and I don't know how to take it. I'll figure it out.  Thats about it. So yeah.... bye!

Vegas was amazing.Everything was perfect. I couldn't have really expected more. The plane that I was semi fearing wasn't bad at all. I think it may be the best way to travel.When we arrived the weather was a warm 60ish degrees. Robert had a suprise for us. As we made our way to baggage claim. He had a limo waiting to take us to the hotel. I even got a rose. We drove up the strip from the south end to T I. We checked in and thanks to Roberts flirting a little and 20 bucks we got an upgrade and they didn't charge for adding Nick to the room. We stayed on the top floor (36) and stayed in a penthouse. The room was nice with a great view, comfy beds and a huge bathroom. I even got to take a relaxing bath.
The first night.We kind of just wandered around and went to a few casinos ( treasure island, mirage and harrah's) had a few drinks and then made our way up to the room since we were all a little sleepy from the plane. Well once we got there we weren't all that sleepy but we laid down and I ended up sleeping in Nick's bed because Robert was farting way too much. lol When he decided to jump on us and smash smores pop tart in my hair. Oh well it was a good memory even if it was a bitch to get it out of my hair.
Day one was lots of walking. We walked all the way down to the Stratosphere which is at the south end of the strip. We went to the Wynn which was amazing. It was so beautiful to see. Flowers everywhere. I have pics and I'llpost them sometime. I took a bunch of pics almost everywhere we went.I had bought super cute new shoes to wear but they rubber my heels raw and we took a cab back to the hotel. Rested breifly and then headed out again.We went to Sushi Mon for dinner which was a bit of drive in a cab but was well worth it. We had all you can eat sushi for $25.00. We ate so much. It just wasn't all you can eat sushi it was all you can eat appetizers and desert. We had some strawberry icecream mocchi. yum!!!!  Went to a little bar in our hotel called Isla. It was the best place. The bartenders were awesome and we never had an empty glass and we played video black jack or poker and got all our drinks comped.They made us some drinks that we had never had before like a mexican cucumber.Oh and they made awesome mojitios.
Day two was more walking. We took a shuttle down to Mandalay Bay at the north end of the strip and walked back. We went to most of them again. We went to New New York which was really cool. It was really like being in New York. Some of these places you can forget that your actually inside. lol We went to Luxor and Paris and a few others. We went back to the room to change clothes and head over to the Venetian for The Blue Man Group!!!!!! I was sooooooo excited.I had been really looking forward to them for a long time.And just as I suspected they were amazing! We sat so close. We were like 3 rows back and dead center. At one point they came out into the crowd and walked across the arms on the chairs and Nick got his arm hair stepped on. hehe.
They did this part were they had all these streamers come down over the audience. That was so much fun. I laughed so hard that night.After that we walked out and the Mirage was just about to start their fire show. It was kinda lame but hey not everything can be amazing. I guess it was good enough for what it was.Oh when we were at New York New York they had a magic shop there and Robert bought a rubber chicken. More about that in a sec.We also bought ugly stick drinks at the coyote ugly bar.Ok so back to the rubber chicken. Not sure if anyone watched the show on VH1 called the Surreal Life: Fame Games. Well, Chyna Doll and Traci Bingham did rubberchicken shots and so did we. I bought a bottle of hypnotiq from the store down stairs and then we did them.Each time we did a shot we said rubber chicken shotsu!!! They were messy and we spilled it all over but it was great fun and then we went back down to our little bar and drank lots and lots. None of us got sick but I was unable to get up and go to breakfast at Paris.
 So Robert and Nick went and once I was feeling better I caught up with them. And so began our last full day in Vegas. We walked around some more and went to places that we hadn't been to and went to places that we wanted to go back to.We went that night and finally saw the show at our hotel. The Sirens of T I. It was super cheesy and slutty but great at the same time.So many sex jokes.Since we were staying at the hotel we got to stand really close. After that I was done gambling and so was Nick. So we went back to the room and hung out and chatted for a bit and packed up as we were going to be up early for the flight home.He told me about a really cool band I had never heard of called Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.Robert stayed down stairs and played roulette and then sadly we woke up and it was time to head back to Michigan. We made sure we had everything packed and Robert packed. When we got on the plane they announced the weather in Michigan. Oh so cold and sad. Windy and snowing!!!Ewww and now here we are, all of us back home safe and sound.I want to go back already!

Last night was so much fun. Robert and I went to our usual stomping ground.Yep, the Glass Mug. At first we thought oh no its pretty dead but around 10:30 or 11:00 it picked up and was bumpin'.We met some new people and partied with them. Rum and cokes are delicious! The waitress had fake tattoos on her tray. We asked for them and now I have two clovers on my wrists. Much dancing, lots of drinks and laughter. It was awesome. And here's the shocker.... I fell and twisted my ankle again. lol I'm such a cluts. Oh I'll survive. When I woke up it hurt like a bitch and still does. Suprising that was all that was hurting. NO HANG OVER YAY! We went to Taco Bell for a quick bite and Roberto totally hit a car in the drive thru. Luckily the guy was really nice and didn't get all crazy. Roberts car has a small scratch. The best part was the outfit that Robert had on, blue plaid pj pants and a green "cuban soul revival" shirt and dress shoes! classy huh? Well time for a shower.Later yo's!
