I'm meeting my friend Beth for lunch today. Yes, I eat out way too much. Why does it seem like everything revolves around food? But we are going to Chili's, my favorite, so I guess I'll work on my diet another time.

My hair!!
Elva came over and did my hair last night. I really like how it turned out. My hair has these awful red undertones so every time I try to color it (from a box) I end up with kind of a strawberry blonde. Not what I want! She gave me highlights and they aren't reddish at all! It's kind of hard to tell from this pic but this is an after shot:

Thursday
It's been a pretty boring couple of days. Last night the kids and I went to Carl's Jr for a school fundraiser. The school receives 25% of the proceeds. Well, if the amount of people there last night was any indication, the school will be getting a good chunk of change!
I'm going to lunch with Shannon today. We are going to the Round Table Pizza lunch buffet. Yum! And then I am babysitting.
My friend, Elva, is coming over to do my hair tonight. She is going to cut and color it (including highlights!). I'm excited! I've never had my hair professionally done before so I can't wait to see how it turns out.
That's about it. I need to clean the house before the baby comes over since I won't have time to do it once she's here. I don't want to be embarrassed when Elva comes over... LOL!

Stuff...
This funny thing happens every 5 years on your birthday... your driver's license expires and you are supposed to renew it! The DMV sends you a notice in the mail and everything. Unfortunately, sometimes people put the notice aside and then forget about it. Yep, that's what I did! I realized yesterday morning, out of the blue, that I forgot to renew my driver's license. Luckily, it just expired on Saturday so I wasn't driving illegally for too long, but still. So, lucky me, I got to go down to the DMV this morning. On the plus side, they had me take a new picture. I guess that's good since the picture on my old license was 10 years old. I look kind of different now... So in 2-4 weeks I will have a bright, shiny new driver's license! Thank God they didn't make me take a test because I probably wouldn't have passed it, lol!
I had my birthday party last night. The whole family got together at my sister's house. We had pizza and birthday cake and played Battle of the Sexes. Let me tell you, that game is hard! And frustrating! Just when you start making some progress towards the end, you get sent back to the beginning! All I asked for was cash for my upcoming Vegas trip. Some may think that is tacky but I really don't care. I usually just get gift cards anyways so what's the difference? I ended up with a good amount so I'm excited. It's less money that I have to earn on my own. The boys had a blast with my sister's roommates. They don't usually take to strangers too well, but there was something about these guys that the boys just took to.
After my adventure at the DMV this morning, the baby and I had lunch at Panda Express. I really need to stop doing this... I really wonder how much money I would save if I didn't eat out for a whole month (not to mention how much weight I could lose...) I just have no will power though. I mean, if we are already out, we may as well get lunch, right? Even if it is only 10:30 in the morning and we have plenty of time to get home before lunch...

Raining again...
Ugh, it is freaking raining AGAIN! For the last week or so it has been raining one day and then clear the next and then raining again. I'm so sick of the rain. We just aren't used to a lot of rain in Southern California. I would never survive in Seattle, LOL!

Blake Shelton 2/22/08
The Blake Shelton show was awesome! (He's no Rascal Flatts but... lol).
We got down to the 4th & B a little later than we wanted to because I had to pick my husband up at the airport and his flight was delayed by 2 hours. So we got down there about 5:00. We hung around Blake's bus hoping to see him but no luck. The box office opened about half an hour after we got there. Belle surprised me by buying my ticket since it was my birthday (well today is...). Thank you Belle!
We got in line to wait for the doors to open. We had to wait about an hour. There were three women ahead of us in line who were in Blake's fan club and they had meet and greet passes. One of the women turned around and offered Belle her extra pass! I swear, Belle has the best luck!! Of course, I was jealous and Belle did offer to give it to me but I said no, because, honestly, if I was given a pass I wouldn't want to give it up. After about an hour they opened the doors.
We had an awesome spot in front of the stage! There was a barricade about 2-3 feet out from the stage and we were right up against that, to the right of Blake. We couldn't have gotten any closer. I saved our spots while Belle went to her meet and greet. She was nice enough to get Blake to sign a picture for me. I thought that was really sweet of her (and him).
The show started and it was awesome! We weren't really sure what to expect because we knew Blake was sick. Belle saw him in LA on Wednesday and she said the show was really rushed and it was obvious he didn't feel well. So we were hoping he was feeling better by last night! Obviously he was!! He totally put his all into every song. He was joking around and flirting with the girls in the audience. He's such a cutie! I don't even know how many songs he sang. When he came out for the encore, which was supposed to be two songs according to the set list, he sang for 45 minutes! He just kept going and going. He even sang a song that gave Belle and I an idea for a sign for Rascal Flatts in Vegas... *wink*
After the show we saw a group of people hanging around his bus along with one of the DJs from the local radio station. The DJ and a group of about 5 girls were so drunk of their asses, it was quite entertaining. We hung around for a while in case Blake decided to come out but he didn't so we left. Or I should say we attempted to leave...
When we parked, there were no cars around us. Well, of course, by the time the show was over the lot was full and the cars on either side of us and behind us weren't parked very well. It took us 17 minutes of backing up and going forward 3 inches at a time (literally) to get out of that spot. It was quite interesting. Let me just say, it's a good thing neither of us had been drinking. That would have been a disaster! LOL!
On a sidenote, I didn't know that Brandon Blackstock was Blake's tour manager now! It was nice to see him again. He's such a cutie!
Here are the pictures and videos I took.

Happy Birthday To Me!
Today is my birthday! I seriously cannot believe that I am 33. On the one hand, I feel so old sometimes. I have a teenage daughter and my baby sisters are 20 and 22. But on the other hand, I feel like I just turned 18. These last 15 years have gone by soooo fast.

Friday
I'm going to see Blake tonight! Yay! It should be a good show. Too bad it is pouring rain outside. I'm not going to be able to wear the cute skirt and tank top that I wanted to wear. Oh well, guess I'll have to save them for RF, lol!
I have to go pick my husband up at the airport in a couple of hours. He was nice enough to wait until this morning to tell me that I had to pick him up. MEN! Again, it is pouring rain and the airport is an hour away. Can't wait! *rolls eyes* But he is watching the kids while I go to the show tonight so I guess I shouldn't complain too much...
But then I get to have lunch with Belle and we will be heading down to the venue to see Blake! So if I can just get to lunchtime without losing my mind, I'm good!
Oh yeah, I have to stop at Walmart and get some diapers on the way to the airport. Good times.

Blake Shelton
So we ARE going to see Blake Shelton tomorrow night! Woohoo! He does put on a good show from what I remember. And he a pretty funny guy. It should be fun.
Good morning...
I'm up earlier than I would like, but oh well. I'm getting my nails done this morning (my mom is watching the kids - YAY!) and I have to go to the post office. Then tonight I think we are going to have dinner with Shannnon and Elva. I'm so excited - it's been so long since I've seen Elva. So, that's it. Not too much going on but I'm sure I'll find something useless to post about later.

You see the weirdest things at the mall...
I was at the mall yesterday with my friend, Shannon, and we saw something very interesting. There was a boy, probably between 7 and 10... it was kind of hard to tell because he was being carried out of the mall by security. One security guard was holding him under his arms and another was holding his leg and his mom (I'm assuming) was holding his other leg. And they were literally carrying him out of the mall. He was putting up a little bit of a fight. I wonder what happened to make this necessary. It makes me realize that maybe my kids aren't that bad, lol.
A couple of weeks ago I was at the mall with my kids. We were leaving the family restroom and saw something strange. An older woman (probably in her early '60's) came running around the corner and down the hallway to the restroom. She was wearing a blue spandex-y dress and had her hair in an updo. She was holding her crotch and saying "Excuse me, bathroom!" over and over! It was interesting to say the least. DD and I just looked at each other in amazement.
Who needs TV for entertainment? Next time you're bored just head to the local mall!

Rain, rain go away...
I seriously hate the rain :( At least we don't have to go anywhere today, but still. This is the one thing I hate about California - the unpredictable weather. In the last week we have had hot days, nice, warm days, yucky, overcast days and rainy days. WTH?? Just pick one and stick to it! Ugh.
VH1 Trash ... oops I mean Reality... TV
So last week I watched the "auditions" for Flavor of Love 3. Oh.My.God. I have never seen so much trash in one place in my life. Seriously. Now, I don't think Flavor Flav is any great catch but even he deserves better than these ladies (using that term veeeery loosely...)
Then last night I watched Rock of Love. I love Poison. I have since I was in high school (maybe even middle school...) And I've always had this weird attraction to Bret Michaels even though he is soooo not my usual "type". But I hadn't gotten around to watching this show yet. I don't know... I guess I just have a problem with him screwing around with all these different women. Not that I don't know it happens out on the road all the time. But I guess flaunting it on TV is different. And these women are not that pretty... I mean some of them are ok. But Daisy looks like she has balloons for lips. And Peyton just looks haggard. And how old is Catherine? She looks like she's 40 but trying to look 20 (and it's not working...) And I'm sorry, but other than their fake boobs, some of their bodies are not that great... their bellies look like mine (and that's not really a good thing...). So while I was kind of put off my this show, I was kind of oddly fascinated by it also. It was kind of like watching a train wreck... I couldn't look away. So I set my DVR to record all new episodes, lol. What can I say? I guess I'm a sucker for Trash TV.

So, I haven't been posting much. Not that I think anyone is really reading this, lol. But I'm going to try to post every day.
So today I have to go to the post office and mail one package for eBay. It should have gone out on Saturday with the rest of my packages but it is going to Canada and I didn't feel like waiting in the loooong line. And yesterday was a holiday. So it is going out today. Sorry, my Canadian buyer. Then I am going to make one final stop at Ralphs and Vons for this ad week. I want to get the red grapes that are on sale at Vons for $1/lb.
Then I am babysitting this afternoon.
DH left for Dallas this morning for a work trip. He won't be home till Friday. (Woohoo! Just kidding. Not really...) So the kids and I are on our own this week.
Speaking of the holiday... my kids are out of school for the entire week. For President's Day. WTF?? It's not being labeled as a "mid-Winter recess" or anything like that. The flyer specifically said it was for President's Day. Whatever. It means no homework and sleeping in. I'm all for that! Now if I can just get them to not fight this week... HA HA HA! The 5 YO has already told me that he hates me this morning. *rolls eyes*
So I may go see Blake Shelton on Friday. My friend, Belle, is going to see him tomorrow night and if she likes the show then we may go to his San Diego show on Friday. I've already seen him twice. He was the opener for the first two Rascal Flatts shows I went to. I enjoy him. I wouldn't mind going to see him. (Especially after being with the kids 24/7 this week, I'll need a break. LOL!)
That's it for now. Oh, the exciting life I lead...

Dancing With The Stars Season 6
I love Dancing With The Stars. A lot. But I'm not too sure about the new season starting on March 17. First, my favorite male dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy is not returning :( I cried. Not really but almost. Now, they have announced the couples for the new season. They had to dig down pretty deep to find these "stars". I haven't even heard of half of these people. And I'm not too sure how exactly it is going to work with Marlee Matlin. I mean, she's deaf... Should be interesting.

More Rascal Flatts...
I mentioned that I'm going to Vegas in March to see Rascal Flatts. Well, now I'm going to Northern California in April too! They are going to be in Fresno, Sacramento and San Jose April 9-11 and Belle and I are roadtripping it up there for all three shows! Woohoo! It's going to be so fun!
The Melting Pot
So I went to The Melting Pot last night with Belle. It was fun... it was nice to get out of the house... but it soooo was not worth the money! I know that you are paying for the experience but now that I've experienced it once, I don't think I need to experience it again, lol.
OK, so you start off with a cheese fondue. They bring you cubed bread, carrots, celery, cauliflower and apples (and depending on which cheese you choose, tortilla chips). They make the fondue at the table in front of you.
Then you get your main course. They have various meats to choose from - the special we got came with a variety of meats - 2 types of beef, chicken and shrimp. There are five types of broth to choose from to cook your meat in. They also bring you a plate of veggies (squash, potatoes, not sure what else since I didn't eat them, lol).
Then comes dessert! YUM! There are several flavors of chocolate to choose from. They bring you a plate of cheesecake, brownies, strawberries, bananas, rice krispie treats, oreo dusted marshmallows, graham cracker dusted marshmallows and pound cake to dip in the chocolate.
The service was awesome except for one tiny detail. The restaurant we went to offers a special called Dipping At Dusk which allows each person to eat for only $25 (I know that still sounds expensive but you should see the rest of the menu!). We foolishly assumed that because we were able to pick two entrees and two desserts, that we also could pick two cheeses. We realized we were wrong when the check came and there was an extra $15 tacked on for the second cheese :( Of course no one bothered to make sure we were aware of this when we were ordering. The manager was nice enough to remove the extra $15 charge when we explained that we didn't know that was the way it worked and had it been explained to us, we would have only ordered one cheese.
So in all, dinner, including tip was $81 ($35 of which was my portion). Honestly, for that price, I would have much rather gone to Chili's, lol. But it was a fun experience and a night away from my kids is priceless!

27 Dresses
I went to see 27 Dresses tonight (by myself, lol). It was really good! I think I really like Katherine Heigl. I have loved everything that I've seen her in. So if you are looking for a fun, no-brainer movie to go see, check out 27 Dresses.
I think next week I may go see Over Her Dead Body with Eva Longoria. I've heard that one is really funny. I also want to see Fools Gold.
And there was a preview for a movie called What Happens In Vegas... with Cameron Diaz and Ashton Kutcher. OMG it looks hilarious. So watch for that one. I can't remember when it comes out.
I'm finally starting to feel a little more human. Maybe I'll get to the grocery store tomorrow. Maybe not. We'll see. I have to at least pick up milk.
Then tomorrow night I am going to The Melting Pot with my friend, Belle. She raves about this place so I'm curious to see what all the hype is about.

Sick...
So I haven't posted in a while. I've been so sick for almost a week now. Needless to say I haven't been doing much of anything, let alone shopping, so there hasn't been much to post about. When there is....
