hangover city.

i was SO SO SO SO hungover and i had to be awake at 6:30-7 this morning to take kolt and kyle to six flags. i barely made it to my hair appointment with angi yesterday (after sleeping in until 2:30.. really kali?!) six flags was awesome but REALLY rattled my fragile dome. anyway this post is dedicated to last night:

i went to classic to pick up a camera/shirt damaris had bought for me from brandon. hung with the BFF/dudes for a minute. met up with philly and he gave me some new sneaks! yay. dave finagled the keys to their new house from brian. 2 black prostitutes later we set foot in the new flores/seghers/aguilar casa! soooo excited for those guys. not to mention the cuzzi in their backyard may or may not be calling my name.

somehow dave and brian roped me into cosmic bowling?! dave and brian were partying so i figured it was worth sticking around to see.

the tables turned and i became the dd last night. after countless 90's jams and strobe lights the plan was to make it to downtown redlands in one piece. we went to the dirty bird and oddly enough aj, kayla and mike v were there. pretty solid night if i might say. brian was KILLING ME! he kept telling me how sexual he was and to take more photos of him posing on the shuffle board table. what a ham!

sierra wireless card, thank you.

since i arrived at the acevedo compound in colton it has been infested with flies. as a matter of fact i just saw a baby fly land near my hand. wow, ive never seen a baby fly before. flies are filthy. i was being tortured by a fly a few nights ago when i was falling asleep. each time i would drift off it would land on my lip. i guess it pooped too, because dont flies always poop when they land? so i kept thinking, "wow, i have fly poop on my lip." i finally burrowed under the covers, hiding from the flies and their miniature poops.

side note: jeremy ivens was killed a few days ago. this made me unusually sad. my mom had the clipping on the counter for me when i came home today. here it is.

side note II: six flags is closed tomorrow... so it looks like we are going on saturday?

california.

i feel like its been too soon since i was last here. really it has been though. its funny, i realized on this trip that california isnt meant for rob and i. i cant quite put my finger on it but it doesnt feel like home anymore, neither does hawaii... oigh what a frustrating place to be. yet, now i am finally learning to enjoy life no matter what.

i flew out for my grandma amy's funeral which was yesterday. she was such an amazing woman, constantly looking out for me in my darkest hours and reminding me that everyone is equal in every aspect. she is happier now and im glad i had a chance to know her.
amparo acevedo.
it was hard to see kolt cry. it was also hard to stay at the house during the wake because bob was so hammered. i finally had to take off and visit angi for a few. i didnt want to go home since i knew the wrath of a drunken step father awaited me. i called kim and went to target with her. after target i called david to hang... haha i was on a mission to avoid that house! i finally drove home to find bob crying and being so very sloppy. sad.

i woke up today and purchased six flags tickets for thursday (taking kolt and kyle). followed by a little trip to the house of nemo. we went to vicky g's in attempts to get my macbook into the genius bar. alas, attempt failed. but a fun hang sesh regardless. philly, neil and i downloaded the fart free app for our phones and had a fart party:

no shame.

what goofballs.
nemo.

okay i think im gonna go hang with brian seghers for a bit.

a little snippet of my day.

today had to have been to worst encounter of OCD (im presuming this diagnosis, FYI) ever. so im sitting next to this dude:
OCD man.
every few minutes he would take a dirty toothbrush out of his messenger bag and scrub his teeth. now i use the word scrub because there was no toothpaste involved and when i say dirty, im talking looks like the guy scrubbed butt with it beforehand. when he finished brushing he would wipe it on his shirt and tuck it safely back into his bag. bizarre/disgusting/normal... call it what you will i was nauseated by this and had to sit through it for 6 hours. he also snored louder than anyone ive ever heard snore... the sound drowned my ipod out. snoring should be deleted from existence. last but not least hacked and hacked with no hand over his mouth. goodness gracious, where are peoples manners these days?

among other things, today was a really rough day. this is how i feel right about now:
LOOOONGGG day.

[im apologizing in advance for the terrible photo quality accompanying this post.]

being a lady really sucks.

so today was "that time of the month" or whatever you wanna call it. generally i feel sick, suck it up and power on through the day. today, however, had another plan for me. i have a ton of errands to run before saturday so i had planned to head out to: the natural food store for a drink, ross, the post office and wal-mart. a solid 2 hour errand sesh right there.

the natural food store was fine. i felt a little crappy but i was buying a drink to go with medicine to cure that. pill popped and i was on my way to ross when it started getting worse. i figured i could power through ross and then head home if i felt really terrible. i hopped in line behind 5 people... ughhh... ive got the shakes and cold sweats. not just your average cold sweat. i felt my face sinking into itself and all of a sudden ross was black. i blacked out! now i know ive gotta get out before something terrible happens. so i jump out of line, park my full cart by the register assuring the cashier id "be right back" ha, right.

im sitting in my car, in the ross parking lot. what do i do? do i drive home and risk blacking out again or crashing? i called my other half to explain the dilemma. he told me i should at least try, but by this time my entire body was dripping cold salty sweat. im not exaggerating when i say this... my hairline was damp and i looked like rob when he eats spicy thai. what to do?!

i started driving down the highway when things started spinning again. i pulled to the side, reclined my chair and started to panic. ive never had side effects so severe in my life. what in the hell sparked it? all i could think about is how this was the most terrible pain of my life and that i never want to have children because i know that pain is even more intense. i had 5 minutes to go until i was home so i just had to suck it up. i think i was concentrating so hard that the sweat dripping off of my cheeks, nose and brows wasnt even crossing my mind. of course there was traffic at the light where i needed to turn. 5 minutes turned into 8 and i almost started crying. i dont think the van in front of me knew i was pleading for him to plow into the people ahead just so i could pass.

desperacy receded as i pulled into the driveway. sheer bliss, well kinda. dripping cold beads i ran inside, past travis, past rob straight to the bathroom. i sat there for a minute contemplating, "am i going to throw up or just feel like shit all day?" oh but there it went. my $5 kombucha down the drain along with this mornings granola. what a waste of money and a bad taste in my mouth.

i hate being a woman. moral of the story: get a hysterectomy & adopt babies.

Jan 20, 2009

bummed.

okay today just outright SUCKS.

a. my grandma amy died. she is my step dads mom who was what you could call "good people"

b. travis got all rude with me because he thought i was lurking the photos on his old computer (the one im using since mine died). how presumptuous of him! i think maybe iphoto opened when i charged my iphone on it or something? still, i have no desire to snoop around on his computer. even when i said, "what? no." he said, "mmhmm, whatever kali." really travis?

andddd

how to waste $650 in one month:

miss a flight home because you were too wasted to wake up

$250

not pay a metrolink fine (because you rode the metro without purchasing a ticket) causing california to issue a warrant for your arrest unless you pay

$400

seriously rob? i just wanna cry. i hate it when things like this happen that cause me to question everything.

"its so weird looking at my beard in the trash"

i think i should always begin my blogs with quotes from rob. the things that come out of that boys mouth, i swear. yes he shaved his face... you shall see soon enough.

today we took the long trek to volcano national park. whew. travis and rob were drinking beers while i drove... soon enough they turned into trevor and bob (their annoying alter egos that could potentially drive me insane). back to the volcanoes... so there were these epic steam vents that you could walk into and basically get a sauna effect, which was awesome since i was 50 degrees there! we all ended up looking like ragamuffins because we piled on all kinds of crazy layers.
hawaii.
hawaii.
im being devoured by the mist!

rob wouldnt stop smoking!
hawaii.
buwahahaha.

we saw thurstons lava tube again!
hawaii.

and while we were at the magma flow i snuck off to take photos of bea arthur:

okay off to bed... nighty night.

BIG SURF!

okay so the waves are ridiculous here! winter = closed beaches. sadddd... our neighbor paco said people have broken their necks at our local beaches... scaryyy!!! not so good for me since i just borrowed a friends board to learn how to surf. guess it will collect some dust for a week or so.

okay lets sum up the past few days... farmers market, cleaning, laundry, recouping basically. since we have travis for 10 more days now we had to gather a new game plan. i believe we are going to polulu lookout tomorrow for a hike! =) yay. oh yeah, kujo got in a fight with a neighborhood dog. the owner didnt have the dog on a leash so they couldnt be separated. her bad! rob pulled kujo off of the dog and she had a mouth full of fur, oh dear.

today we went to an organic coffee farm up in the hills. it was the one on dirty jobs, incase anyone has seen it? it was semi entertaining. we came back and the boys napped while i finished season 2 of big love (gahhh, season 3 premiers tomorrow. so excited!) our plan was to go to a beach but travis wouldnt wake up. rob and i decided to fly kites together, look in tide pools and make homemade pizza! yum. anyway, i shot some photos today, enjoy:

us.
us on the way to the beach, nevermind my crazy ass hair. i seriously forgot about my natural curl until i dyed my hair back to its natural color. wow.

stewie.
stinky stew! this boy served 3 months in doggie jail. can you believe it?!

blythe.
and here's toad. the latest addition to the blythe family. she was an exclusive with top shop so how could i pass her up? plus she has the best stock eyechips everrrrr.

ni nighttt friends.

lazy.

the past two days all of us have been ridiculously lazy. aside from preparing food for the dudes, as always, we havent done anything but work at home and take the usual afternoon beach trip to catch some waves. yesterday was particularly special because i went to the salvation army. what did i find? oh just a sweet boogie board for $10!!! what a steal! we broke her in yesterday at hapuna. i took some photos of us sun bathing before our umbrella flew away.

hawaii.
hawaii.
hawaii.

while we were laying on the sand i guess rob felt compelled to steam roll the whole beach. people were so confused and it was awesome.



okay, must clean. bye.
