quick recap

Okay, so surprise surprise, I didn't update for any of the events. May really is a busy month now that I look back on it. In addition to those events I listed, I had several smaller outings that just filled up my nights more. We all know in-depth updates won't happen at this point, so this will be a long entry summarizing each event.

Las Vegas
FUUUNNNNNNN!!!! We spent two nights in the penthouse suite and just relaxed. We sunbathed, cooled off in the pool, cooked in the jacuzzi where we inadvertently joined a massive family from Texas and had the coolest 58 year old dad buy us drinks. We got all fancy and ate at nice restaurants, ordered room service (which kind of spoiled our appetites for dinner), and went to the Secret Garden Habitat and saw all the cute dolphins and tigers and lions.

Stanley Cup Playoff Game
By now, anyone who follows hockey will obviously know the Kings swept the Blues with that fourth game and went on to the next round. Right now they're up 3-1. They lost the most recent game. The game was so much fun. We sat right at the red line, about 10 rows back and saw almost everything. When it got to a point where they were just running out the clock, everyone was going crazy. I was jumping up and down, waving our rally towels. Then silver streamers shot out at the end of the game. It was cool.

Cirque du Soleil's Totem
Oh my gosh that show was amazing. First off, my car made it to San Diego and back and the drive wasn't as bad as I thought. Although I would not want to do it by myself. But the show was so cool. It had me holding my breath and left me with my mouth hanging open half the time. I was so tense and nervous for most of the show, but it was SO cool. It's hard to go through and explain it without going into so much detail, but it was just amazing.

Renaissance Faire
This was a last minute thing with Kelly. She got free tickets from Steph and we went on the last Saturday. We didn't dress up and we didn't stay the whole day. We hung out with Brian a little and did some expensive shopping. I bought the skirt I saw last year and just had to have. I tried on several variations and sizes and finally decided on one. It was pricey but it was just one of those purchases that didn't have to be logical. I'll find times and ways to wear it to make it worth the money. Kelly was pretty happy with the new corset she bought herself.

Bats Days
As usual I took absolutely forever getting ready. Partly because I woke up later than planned and then I proceeded to actually not get ready for a good 30 minutes. We went to the SAPS fiesta first for breakfast/lunch (dressed up, mind you- oh, we got looks alright). We finally got to Disneyland and randomly bumped into Derrick and Lisa at the parking structure. We did things to entertain us until Raven showed up but apparently the booger only texts one of us, the one whose phone didn't happen to be working, and won't answer any other incoming calls/texts. So we were waiting for maybe 2 hours, calling constantly, wondering where the hell he was. Guess where we found him? Haunted Manion smoke hole. Not surprising, right? We hung out with him for the rest of the day and ran into Derrick and Lisa again when we were waiting for Fantasmic. The 5 of us hung out together until we finally left. And boy was I tired. I didn't get much sleep the night before after the fiesta and with this late night, I was totally late to my first class on Monday.

New York is happening in two days. Maybe 1 1/2 now. It hasn't hit me completely, but it's slowly creeping up on me. Mostly the fact that I have to do my month's worth of laundry and start packing. I don't know what to bring!!! I won't make any promises about blogging while I'm there, but if there comes a night where we just happen to be chilling at Lily's place, I might do an update.

But until the next update...bye! ♥
