I don't want to live there anymore

LA will always be idealized on some level. Mostly because my hair looks amazing there, not like the frizzy mess it is here. The weather was absolutely perfect...sunny, 80, light breeze, no humidity and actually cool at night. Not like here when it's 80 by 7am and never cools down with tons of humidity. It's amazing how different weather can be on the same freaking continent.


I saw friends and their babies...



(Robbie - Jen's baby)


(Marie & baby Gavin)




I stayed in my favorite pool house



and took a dip every chance I got


(no, I didn't go down the slide)



Oh and I did go to Ashlee's graduation which was the reason I chose that weekend to go to LA.

Heh, she has graduation-cap head.


Overall it was a good time. I absolutely don't want to live in LA unless I'm fabulously wealthy. It was funny though, the minute I stepped off the plane I felt like I was in another world. So many trendy people looking like they're goal is to be mistaken for someone famous. I'm over it.

I did manage to stay on east coast time but I'm exhausted because I usually give myself Saturday and Sunday to wake up naturally. However, since I was out there I was forcing myself to get up at 4 so that when I actually *had* to get up at 3:30 for my flight Sunday, it wasn't such a shock.

I hate being back at work but I'll live. Oh and I submitted an application for the other job. I'm not holding my breath though.

Think good thoughts about that job prospect. I'm rooting for you!
And I loved that kid Robbie's hair! Ha! So cute. That pool house looked awesome, too. I wouldn't mind that being my actual house to live in.

It's big, like 900 sq. feet. There's a big stall shower with a seat in it (awesome for shaving the legs) and a bathtub that's 6 feet long.

Robbie's hair was hysterical. It sticks up but not in any sort of logical pattern.

And I promise, only good thoughts (but with no excitement) for the job prospect.

Glad you had a good time :)

I'm glad the bloggers were back- I was lost without you guys!

I forgot to mention how it was so chilly in the mornings that I had to go to WalMart (only place open before 9am) on Friday morning and buy a sweater for the graduation ceremony. Crazy! Luckily the sweater only cost $12.
