my world. my word.

it’s been awhile since i’ve blogged.  i miss it.  i just got home from spending time with the cousins.  always fun.  always yummy. haha.  we met at la palma then had a drink at tea station… i ordered my usual lychee jelly ice… and of course we shared some strawberry brick toast.  robin caught up with us and we all had dinner at the tofu place…. sooo friggin delicious!! anyway, dino entertained us with his whole vegas birthday weekend.  i am soo jealous!  it sounded like it was soo much fun and lately i’ve been wanting to go to vegas and party and let loose.  i even dreamt about being in vegas last night with the girls and damn it was fun.  hahah.  too bad i had to wake up to reality and head to work.  also, i wish money wasnt an issue.  i would party like there was no tomorrow… have no reservations about what to do and where to go…  but that’s not the issue now.  financially, we’re all suffering and being smart with your money is all we can do… most of us are just a paycheck away from being homeless…and honestly, that is REALLY scary.

on a somewhat lighter note (not really), i actually felt the earthquake that happened yesterday which originated in baja california, mexico.  it was pretty strong.  jake and i were in a parking lot having lunch when all of a sudden the car started rocking pretty hard.  i actually got scared for a second because the tall lightpost was rocking really hard and i was afraid it would break off and fall onto the car and kill us instantly.  some imagination, huh? haha.  now i am actually pretty scared because with the weird changes in weather, and the mini earthquakes nearby, i’m sure a really big one is going to happen and if you read one of my earlier posts about emergencies, i still have NOT put together an emergency bag/kit.  we have nothing.  all jake and i did was talk about it that night and kind of established where we would meet in case we wouldnt be able to contact each other….but frankly… i’ve already forgotten what we discussed. no bueno.

now i am pretty terrified considering the intense damage and injury caused in the recent earthquakes such as haiti.  i say this now and i really hope to follow through but i am determined to have at least half of the emergency kit competed by the end of the week.  that’s a pretty reasonable goal.  my main priority is getting copies of important paperwork though.  i can easily buy an emergency kit at target but the paperwork is something i cannot do without since i am usually responsible in that department, and with my memory there is no way i can remember what we have, numbers, etc.

so… other than that..nothing really has happened lately.  lana’s first birthday party is coming up this saturday.  i am so excited to have a little niece!  i wish one of my cousins (locally) would have a kid… heheh.  =)  that way i can learn from them what to expect and how to act around little kids.  i am not good with kids… it’s so awkward.  haha.

okay…i am getting too distracted now…jake is playing 24 and i’ve missed half of it already… gonna go pay attention to the show now………and maybe start on the emergency kit.
