New haircut

So Thursday evening I got a cut from my guy Randy Roman(yes, that's his last name and he's from Texas too). He styled it stick straight and I rocked the look for a couple of days. Don't you just love it when you get a blowout and your hair looks sooo good and you can never make it look like that at home. Here's me working my trademark look. The glasses.

Non Reunion

So I was supposed to go to my 20year High School reunion but I never RSVPd so I bailed on it. Crissy and I drove by the restaurant/bar place where the afterparty was supposed to be being held but it looked boring so we left and met up with my cousin Lety. It was her bday so we celebrated with her. Much more fun than the reunion. Here's a pic of us. I'm using the ole lift your head pose. Thanks to Beth for that tip. It makes for a better pic. Can you believe I'm the oldest? Just joking Maria and Lety.

What NOT to wear!

Ok, at the Don Omar concert I saw so many DONTs. Unfortunately, I was unable to take lots of pics of them b/c it would have been too obvious. I might have gotten beat up. I saw muffin tops galore. Crunchy hair in three/four different shades. You know what I'm talking about. It seems to be very popular with our gente. Anyway, this pic is of a woman/girl that clearly asked her boyfriend "Does this make my ass look big" and he responded "NO" w/o looking. I even saw a woman wearing a white bra/corset thing. I thought she was paying homage to Madonna but than I figured she's probably too young to remember that look. She's just a skank. Hahaha. Here you go.

Don Omar

So I got tickets to see Don Omar on Thursday night. I was supposed to go with my Colombian friend, Lenin, but he was sick. I ended up meeting up with my friend Anna Maria, another Colombian friend, and her husband. He was supposed to come on at 9:00 but of course he didn't til 11:00. I ended up spending time watching some of the hoochies with their slutty outfits and the others with the muffin tops. Anyway I stayed and watched him for a couple of songs. He is much sexier in person than on tv and/or print. His dancers were so fabulous. The girls had moves I can't even imagine doing. They probably burn 1200 calories a show. Here's a pic.

Birthday Gifts

Here is the birthday list I sent Bryan. Some items are a lil extravagent. Ok, they are too expensive. I posted pics of the shoes and sunglasses(I want them in tortoise shell).

1. Chanel Tortoise Shell Sunglasses(SAKS)

3. Long Weekend in Destin Florida

4. Trip to Austin together

5. New tennis shoes made in US. Cross trainer shoe

6. Car detailed and windows tinted.

7. Oak or nice tree in my front yard.

8. Seeing you more often.

9. A nice dinner and movie night once a week.

10. You here for my birthday. :-)

Oh, I want a puppy from the pound.

New purchases

Ok, I really don't need anymore clothes or shoes. Want maybe but need not so much so I'm focusing my attention on decorating my house and getting organized. I recently purchased two Ghost chairs and a Bourgie lamp I've been wanting forever. DWR had a sales(10% off) so I got off my butt and bought them. My next purchase is a desk for my jewelry making and a new couch. My friend Isabel is recommending a white leather sofa and I'm really liking the idea. Can't really buy a new couch made of fabric b/c Gato and MiuMiu would totally go to town on it like my two newly uphosltered chairs. As for the desk I'm going to look at a consignment store or used b/c new desks are usually made of some cheap laminate or they are overly prices. Yes, I'm cheap and I'm saving my money for that new pair of Louboutins or Giuseppi Zanotti's I saw yesterday at Saks. HOT!

Fun packed weekend

So I ended up going to the LSU and Saints game this wknd. I started out at 6:00am on Saturday b/c I had to pack(to spend the night in BatonRouge) and vote and be out of town by 7:30am at the latest. Bryan asked me to please be in BR by 9:00am. I was and we ended up being on campus by 10:00ish. We didn't get home til 1:00am in the morning. Between the game starting at 8:00pm and the traffic afterwards we got home pretty late. We had to be up by 8:00am the next morning to leave town by 10:00am to make it to the game which we did. Needless to say I was totally wiped out last night to the point that Beth and I met Isabel for some shopping at Saks and I was sooooo tired I couldn't think straight. Of course, I could think straight enough to buy me some new RayBan aviators. They are sooo nice. My Pradas are on their last legs. I'm also getting some new contact lenses this week. I'm goin to see if I can wear them this time. Here's two pics of Bryan and I wearing our team colors. Had a really fun weekend. I'll post my latest pics of purchases later.

My baby

I went to my annual gyn appt today and it took three hours. Normally I would be pissed off at my docter but I love her to death b/c she's so cool and laid back. She also told me I didn't have to freeze my eggs(in case I wanted to have a baby later in life) because she had her kid late in life too. So as I was bored out of mind waiting I picked up this magazine and I swear this baby could be my baby. She won some contest on GMA. The other babies aren't anywhere near as cute as Roman, Amanda or lil man Felix. All I have to say is b/c my gyn is also an ob the waiting room was filled with pregnant woman. Made me think I was missing out on something. Maybe or maybe not. Can't imagine giving up my life but I guess you'll know when the time is right, right?

I love my job

Anyway, one of my clients is the local zoo and the other day I had to go onsite to oversee an installation of some equipment. While I was in the building I noticed two peacocks hanging around the bldg. It was so nice to see them lounging with not a care in the world. Some people have desk jobs(sometimes I get stuck at my desk) and it sucks so being able to visit other places during the day is great. Check out my friend the peacock. Colorful plummage always brightens my day.

Itsy bitsy bikini

Well I bought this bikini in Brazil when I visited my friend Angela and was comfortable walking around wearing practically nothing b/c everyone was doing it in Bahia. Yes, I know just because you can walk around with the smallest bikini in the world in another country doesn't mean you can do it in the US. Needless to say I bought quite a few small bikinis but by far this one is my favorite. Anyway, I've been excercising and eating well in order to get into it. I can get into it but it's not that cute. It's tiny and shows a sliver of butt crack in the back which I think is sexy. i hung it in my dressing room/closet to keep me motivated. I'm on a mission to lose about 10lbs before we go to Hawaii. Wish me luck. I'm doing aerobic excercises now besides weight training. My butt is totally in shape but I have the dreaded muffin top or is it? I'm high waisted so all my weight is held below my waist. Anyway could be worse I could have saddle bags, right?

Jinxed myself

Well, Crissy called me Friday at 4:30pm and asked what I had planned for the wknd. I told her I had a weekend packed with fun. Jinxed myself. Doesn't that always happen. I was supposed to go to Oktoberfest, dinner with some colleagues on Friday, LSU game on Saturday, Saints game and wedding on Sunday. I misread a text and messed up the dates and it was Saturday the day Beth could go to OcktoberFest so we had to cancel. Turns out this was the start of a very bad wknd. I snapped at Bryan for getting into town late(it was raining) and it put a damper on the whole wknd. Sorry babe! He was miffed at me and I was miffed at him. Well we got up early on Saturday to head to Baton Rouge for the Florida game and started tailgating at 11:00am and we were late. People were already there. I wish I could be as fervent as he is about the games but I'm not. I just can't drink for 10 hours with lots of people I don't know and not be a drunk which for me equals an emotional rollercoaster. If any of you know our family we can't hold our booze. Needless to say we left the game early and had a huge fight. I know I ruined his big game and I'm posting this in case he ever reads my blog and understands that I'm sorry. I know that he's sorry too. Drinking with stuff on my mind(pissed) usally equals big blowup for me. Communications isn't my thing. Anyway we ended up driving back to town the next morning and going to the Saints game with Robin. We left at the start of the 4th qtr to go to my co-worker's daughter's wedding. It was nice except the Saints ended up losing. They need to get their act together soon. So morale of the post is sometimes don't count your money in front of poor people.

Halloween around the corner...........

Here's a hint of possible costumes.

Mamí y Pop

So Mamí and Pop came to visit for the week. They arrived on Monday via Amtrak and couldn't stop talking about it. They want to go to California now. Maybe in the future. Anyway, they spent the week here. We went to eat Vietnamese & Middle Eastern food. It was lots of fun. They got to go gambling three times at Harrahs. They were successful two out of the three times. Pop even won 250.00. Pretty good for someone who didn't want to go and even called Mamí a devil. :) They left this am via plane all the way to Harlingen. They would have taken the train again but it doesn't go to McAllen only San Antonio. Of course we visisted the French Quarter yesterday and got caught in some showers but the sun came out and we enjoyed some cafe au lait and beignets at Cafe Du Monde. I know it's a cliche but it was very pleasant sitting in the sun listening to the musicians who set up outside of the cafe. Here are some pics of them. One of them is of them and gato. They love him. They'll definitely take him if anything happens to me. They are like proud grandparents.
