Fair

Tonight was Fair night with the family. My dad has started taking the girls (Alex and Jessica) to the fair every year. My bro and I go along for the fun times. We had a wonderful time walking around and enjoying the sights that Alameda County has to offer - hosted at the wonderful Pleasanton fairgrounds. As I talked to Alex tonight, I learned some scary things about Junior high. She and her friends are dealing with high school drama (girl one dated guy 1 who then cheated on her with girl 2 so girl 1 dumped him.) It is ridiculous. That should not be happening in Junior high -- 6th grade! gracious! And then she started telling me about her family life class (which most of us knew as sex ed) and how it is co-ed and next year they are learning about birth control. How did she grow up so fast? And why are girls this young having sex and needing to learn about protection? Ugh. Kids should not grow up so fast!

Anyways, here are some pictures from tonight:

Thug livin - Davis and Me


Yeah, we are related... haha


Jessica sure looks happy


This is the Lauren Wallace picture


We are ghetto in the Dro

Notice my cool shirt, it's the no kangaroos in Austria shirt. I am so cool! haha

a few pictures

I thought I would post a few pictures from the past few weeks (or week and a half). There are some pretty funny ones.

Wearing my beckham shirt for the world cup... even tho I don't even know what team he is on anymore...


Beckham is on my backside


I love Ice Cream!


Crossing our fingers at Woodies on the Wharf, win the surfboard!


I love the racoon eyes...stupid H&M glasses.




The lovely bride to be and her cake


Gotta love the rollers in my hair!


Crazy curls after my perm!

And that is the randomness that is the beginning of my summer... and I have not even put up the pictures of Emily in the pink dress, or of Dad at the Uke concert.

I give her a 6

Said the one of the three preteen boys sitting outside of the library as I walked by. A 6? Excuse me?? A 6?? That better be out of 5. Now I was not supposed to hear them rating the sweet ladies as they walked in, but they are not that quiet and i distinctly heard the 6 as I walked by. And they still had not seen my best assets yeah... or at least not how great it looks when I walk. haha Not that I think I have a fine booty (cuz it's pretty small to be considered a booty), but I do know that I look good when I walk, I just have a little sexy walk that I do, and I cannot help it: it is habit. Anyways, I had half a mind to walk back to those boys and demand they re-rate me at a 9, at least. But I continued on my way into the library.

The library's collection of used books for sale is way underrated. I got 6 great, paperback books for $5.75. These are perfect books for throwing in my bag upon leaving for the pool. A lot less bulky than the Janet Evanovich hardcover that has 3 books inside, talk about a beast.

I ate a hot dog today. Very weird for me. And even weirder, I kinda liked it. Enough said

i hate spiders

Especially when they jump on me

Okay so that did not really happened, I probably would have peed in my pants if it did. But I will continue with the real story now. [story is a little racy, so be prepared] So I was about to take a bath when I saw a spider running across the ceiling. It was brown and had a big body and would run and then shake it's butt (I think he was putting a web down or something). So I throw my clothes on as fast as I can [the racy part is over now], watching the spider to make sure he does not get above me and to make sure it doesn't run out or into a crack. So I run out and get my dad who doesn't want to stop watching the Dodgers game (15th inning, I know, but there is a pause button on the freakin tivo). So while I am waiting for the third out I run to the bathroom to spray the spider with something and stun it. The problem with Lysol -- it is a mist. Hairspray is a stream, should have used that. The spider fell down and I thought he was jumping on me. I let out one of those girly screams that is really high pitched... which is rare because I never do that. Then I realize the spider fell with his web, so he just fell like a foot, and he was probly 5 feet away from me. But still scary. Anyways, my dad came in and killed it. But I went down the three stairs into the tv room and asked my mom if she heard. She said the whole street did. Funny

Stupid spider. so much drama

Ukulele Club

My dad plays uke in a class in Berkley. They performed with their teacher, Bobo, in Santa Cruz tonight at the Ukulele Club. It was so much fun. It was an "Everly Brothers" night and 4 out of 6 songs were sad sad love songs. This one rang so true.

"Bye bye love, Bye bye happiness, Hello loneliness
I think I'm a gonna cry
Bye bye love, Bye bye sweet caress, Hello emptiness
I feel like I could die, Bye bye my love bye bye"
~The Everly Brothers, Bye Bye Love

Well it doens't completely ring true. But it is a good song and I can relate to parts of it. Sad days. This next song (not played at the club, but played on the Carrie Underwood cd heard while I was nannying today) also relates to the next step in my life. This is where I want to be going,

"Jesus take the wheel
Take it from my hands
'Cause I can't do this on my own
I'm letting go
Give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
Jesus take the wheel"
~Carrie Underwood, Jesus Take the Wheel

heels

Walking around the plan scanning room today, I kept hearing the clickety clack of my shoes. They were the cutest heels ever, little kitten heels, black and white checkers/plaid/gingham ish material, only an inch heel, rounded toes with a cute little tie on the side. Adorable. And I realised just how much I love the sound of heels. It makes me feel all grown up and professional. Not that I want to be in an office, I hate offices. but maybe in a tango club, walking around before I go on stage. Or at a fancy bar, eyeing the room for men to buy me drinks. I doubt i will ever do either of those, but it is a funny thought.

And I just love how heels looks. Some are just incredibly cute (like mine today) and some just murmur va-va-voom, like the black heels I got in London. So sexy!

So now you have something to think about when you hear that familiar click - clack - clickety clack of heels.

chew on that for a minute

Mini Golf

Has always been the bane of my existence. I am really bad at it. sometimes. Especially if I am angry (good job, Jordan, get me all irritated before I play.... haha) But yeah I took a breather and re-focused to play better. I came back and kicked his butt in the second game, after losing a rough 59 to 56 in game one. Jordan had a rough second half of the second game, while I stayed around par. Final score of game two: Megan 56, Jordan 62. haha I kicked major butt. And I learned to control my temper and stay calm, no matter if I had 2 strokes or 10. haha

Who wants to hit up Golden Tee next week? I think I have discount coupons...

Ps the Ville is ghetto. Kids were running all over the golf course. We got to one of the castles and two kids were sitting on top of it and two on the lawn next to it. Weird.

sick

So last night I got sicky and Jordan took care of me. So sweet. I had a headache and my stomach was all upset. I just wanted to curl up in a ball. Jordan sat with me while I laid in my bed (mattress on the floor) and tried to fall asleep. Pushing my hair off my face and comforting me. Weird, that is something I always wanted a boyfriend to do. And he just fell right into it. Like the second I felt sick he was all about trying to make me feel better. And I know that is how I am when he is sick. Guess that is just one of those things that relationships is about.

But what about when you have something contagious? Wouldn't you rather the other person stay away so that they do not get sick? I feel like I would. haha Just something to think about... if you have a contagious cold, would you rather your significant other sit by your side and brush your hair off you face and hold a cold compress on your forehead, or stay away from you for the most part so that they are ready to hang out when you are better? (sorry, big question)
