What A Girl Wants...

Ugh!!!!.. Great weekend with a special someone and I let down all of my walls and broke a few of my rules!!! But I have to say it was worth it!!!! I'm good at jinxing myself tho, especially when I talk about it... So an update is necessary later this week. :) lol... It was a great weekend though. Friday night I went out with a guy friend that proved to be a comfortable successful dinner date :) Saturday went to visit my good friend of 7 + years at her new home for a bbq to celebrate her hubby's 27th. Drank a bit much but enjoyed the new company and the few old <3 Ended up staying out there because an hour drive home was not happening, especially in my drunken state :) The time change really kicked my ass today too. I slept most of the day but suprisingly didn't have a hangover at all. We'll just chalk this weekend up to a great one with some major potential for future great ones :)

The Birthday Boy!!

drinking partners :)

What Happens in Vegas....

So I went through my calendar for the next couple of months and I'm a busy little bee!!!! Today, I went on a spur of the moment Knott's Berry Farm trip with the fam bam... it works that my Pop wins tickets on the radio to everything!! :) We left at noon, got there at 1ish and left when the park closed.. FUN FUN FUN. I love my "Tanner family fun" days :) lol... But seriously, with all of the bday parties, graduations, house warmings and weddings this summer, I'm seriously booked for the next couple months every weekend. Not to mention the small little getaways planned!! :)
This next weekend coming up will be a local one, but I will be helping my good friend, who just got the keys to her new home :) Sort out her "pack-rat" home for a huge garage sale!! Well needed :) The weekend following will be a fun, "slobtastic" Palm Springs adventure with the girls :) The weekend after that will be a good friend's child's 1st bday party :) High School Reunion expected..lol and at night one of the besties bday celebrations...My sister's 18th falls on that following Wednesday and the Besties 28th.. ugh we're getting old.. is the 3rd of the month :) In the midst of all the madness, I will be planning a fantastic Bachelorette Party for the beginning weekend of May. So any San Fran. hot spots or ideas, please throw my way!! :) End of April is Stagecoach, Vegas for the 16th of April is in the works, If my shape is back by then :) April 23rd party bus to Morongo for my buddy Okie's celebration. I want to make it out to Key Largo sometime in May to see my East Coast Boo :) and Two June Weddings so far!! It will be an eventful couple of months with an exciting stir of moments and new memories. Can't wait for the besties wedding and dress shopping should prove to be a fantastic one!! I still want to make it out to NY this year!!! So filling it in will be necessary!! :) Bed time for now, on to another Monday Funday, cuz work is a ton of fun!! Goodnight all!!

Wedding Crashers....

So a $50 gift card is on the line for "The Biggest Loser" competition I now have going on with my Momma!!!  Buckle up, cuz I want the gift card!! I've lost a whopping 10 lbs in a 2 week period. Much to say for the fact that I was sick for a little over half of that time and couldn't keep anything down. lol.. I'll win I promise!! We have a family wedding to attend in June so we set some goals and a friendly competition to meet them. So far, I'm in the lead!! :) woo-woo.
Work is going great, I am getting kudos everyday on a good job note, so I must be doing something right and the atmosphere is totally fun and friendly!! I love it. Bought some girl scout cookies from the cutest little girl that came into the office today. She's down to 100 boxes out of 3000, score for her!!! I also bought the sweetest dress for the babyshower I'm going to on Saturday so hopefully the weather works itself out :)

Missed the guys on Idol yesterday because I went out for a cocktail, 1st one in quite a bit, or should I say 1st 2 lol... tried to set my friend up with a newby, that looked cute in his picture!! LOL.. The hat was deceiving and hid all of the ugly!! LMAO.. that's a mean thing to say, i know. He was a really nice guy, just wrong for boo. :) Called out a friend on a lie someone called him out on and he still flipped the script. I guess I've had an eventful couple of days, but excited to catch up on the wedding plans of my bestie and working it out to meet my weight goal :) Need to get away for a bit tho so a trip to Palm Springs with the girls is in the works (2 weeks to be exact) and at the end of the month the Renaissance Fair in AZ with the family is going to be fun, and can't forget Stagecoach at the end of April- JOSH TURNER IS YUMMILICIOUS!!!!. So I guess I'm not stuck in dullsville like I ragged on myself about yesterday :)  Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the week <3

Liar, Liar...

Pants on fire!!! I can't understand a liar.. with even the simple of things! I met someone recently who has never met, but has now fell in love with my BFF :) Now this kid lied from the gate, but I still haven't called him out. LOL..

Lie #1: when asked how old I was he then told me his age being a year older than me. Dumb, Dumb.. I saw your DL and you're only four years older than my youngest sister :) Whom I am 9 years years older than!! LOL 

Lie #2: Day 1, I was locked up for 2 years in Prison (what a catch!!) Day 5, "you know cuz I was locked up for 4 years in Prison" LMAO

Lie #3: married or not married?? single men don't wear wedding bands on their ring finger. JUST SAYING

LIE #4: THE WHOPPER OF ALL LIES- him: "oh I went to go see ur friend at the bar", me:  "oh yeah when?", him: "Saturday", me: "oh cool, I picked her up on Saturday", him: "yeah she was cool, nice and friendly, looks different (better) than her pictures", me: "oh yeah, cool, what time did u guys go in?", him: "around 8pm".......URRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!! Moron, I just told you I picked her up and she got out at 7!!!! I couldn't find the strength to call him out.. there were too many others around :)

I'm not one to be easily impressed, I'm proud of my accomplishments and dig people on geniune personalities, lie once, white lie no prob., lie twice for lame reasons can't believe anything you say anymore! REAL is REAL.. plus Prison is not a winning mark on your resume buddy!!! Even for a friend!! LMAO. Had to share, hope you all get as big of a laugh out of this as I did!!

Sixteen Candles...

So this weekend we celebrated the 25th bday of my sister Felicia whom I call Skeezer (not in the slutty sense of the word, for those who wondered.. my family used to sing to her "Skeezer Weezer was a bear, skeezer weezer had no hair, Skeezer Weezer, Weezer Skeezer" and Skeezer stuck :) ) Anywho.. the invite list was small, cuz let's face it.. she has no friends!! LOL.. Mom of two, 30 minutes away from people she grew up with up, kind of adds conflict to the friend keeping and making. With that said, a few of our older cousins, my parents, a couple of my friends and her childhood bestfriend and sister joined us at Lake Alice Saturday night. The bar had the most entertaining 80's cover band ever!!!! It was a fun night, minus the slight bit of dramatics. "Men" (almost) who can't hold their liquor and decide to say something ridiculous to the bday girl who can definitely hold her own!! LOL Love my sister.  All in all it was a great night :)

Valentine's Day...

So I'm not a stranger to the whole "LOVE" thing.... and I'll still celebrate the day without a boo and never in the "she-woman manhaters" form!! lol  Relationships are just not for me, and I've come to that conclusion whole-heartedly. Maybe I'm in that mindset of  "30 is the new 20" and "40 is the babyboom".. but I just can't seem to get myself in the "crushing" spirit. Don't get me wrong, I've met people, I meet guys all the time, and I have a serious problem with giving my number out.. hence the reason I change my number once every two months :) At least I'm getting out there, but I'm finding any and every reason to dismiss them afterwards. Minus the stage five clingers and the guy who wore man-uggs, I've met some pretty decent guys. I think I just like my alone time and not to "what chili wants" it again, but I may have a check off list longer than hers. LOL It's not unpractical tho.. (don't judge me.. lol)

A job, no kids, family oriented (but not still stuck at home) with great family values, mature, funny, with a great smile, ENGLISH SPEAKING PREFERED!!lol..

I'm far from shallow and definitely don't have a "type" if you knew my exes you would understand, they are complete polar opposites!! I'm big on friends first..

AGAIN, who am I kidding, even if I met prince charming with all of my prerequisites, I'd still find a reason to dismiss and keep him as just a friend. I love my life, I love my time, my rules, my family, my friends and that's enough. Maybe my Danny Zucko will find me. For now, you'll find me in the back of the Bombay Indian Restaurant with a Heart-Shaped Pinata filled with Valentine's chocolates :) waiting on my single girlfriends to show up with a Valentine's Day sob story!! Or maybe I'll just GO SHOE SHOPPING!! <3

Ghost World....

My blog days have slowly diminished.. but I'll try to keep up :) With the new job and my early bedtime, I  haven't really "computered" it up. I think the idea of being in front of a computer all morning and afternoon, stops me from sitting in front of one later in the day :)

I have been keeping myself busy in all of the positive of ways. :) I cancelled some party time and made it a purpose to spend more family time and fun travel time, even if it's just local SoCal travel. Went to Disneyland yesterday, with a good friend and my lil sister.. I love DLAND and am not too much of a football fan, so missing superbowl wasn't a bummer for me. Although hearing about Christina Aguilera messing up the lyrics of the National Anthem proved to be a disappointment. I feel so bad for her.

This weekend coming.. I want to do a train trip to the coast.. or Old Town SD..  so hopefully that works out for me. Then the weekend to follow.. is my sister's 25th.. so a celebration is necessary.. just glad I got her gift taken care of already :) Stagecoach 2011 here we come!!!
