4th of july holiday festivities

hope you'all had a fab 4th. i actually had a life for the holiday weekend believe it or not...hence my m.i.a. on the blog'n for the last couple days.

friday started out with a great relaxing day @...oh yes, the beach! headed to coronado island http://www.coronado.ca.us/ and beached it @ the del [see image below] with some nice "refreshing" lemonades [read "refreshing" as vodka lemonades]. got myself a nice sunburn. good stuff ;) yes, i should probably apply sunscreen in higher spf than 4...ooops. then we were off for a little bbq action with brauts and fireworks.

lets see here, saturday...what happened? oh, was on kid duty during the day. the rents were home by 9 p.m. so then it was my time to play. headed to one of the best dive bars i've been too in a long time, norma jeans in east county [la mesa to be exact]. pretty much a part of san diego i never travel. kind of like when i lived in kc and didn't go past 88th & ward pkwy...that was about as far south as i made it. so it was karaoke night and boy was it. i luv to see all those peeps get out and belt their lungs out to a little britney and poor some sugar on me. gee, good stuff. i know you're wondering...did you hop up there and belt out your "amazing" voice [read "amazing" as terrible]?!?! well, the answer is...yes. amazingly WE did. belted out a little journey with a group of girls is so perfect when you have an "amazing" voice like i do, LOL. anywho, we rocked the house with our karaoke choice...don't stop believing was a winner. everyone got up from their chairs and joined us on the dance floor. good times for sure as we closed the place down. oh and no, didn't meet the man of my dreams there ;) hehe. maybe the next dive place.

here we are, its sunday funday and that's pretty much what i had...minus the booze that usually takes place with a sunday funday. went to the aventine pool @ the hyatt. ummm, an amazing hide-away. yup, my new fave spot for the summer. pooling-it with the option of a nice pina colada or refreshing margarita ;) you'll can find me here every sunday and possibly any given weekday that i am not on kid duty...



for those of you who know how much i luv my diet coke, well listen to this random fact i just learned. the coca-cola company purchases more sugar than any other company in the world. besides being a liquid refreshment, coca-cola is commonly used to clean toilets, remove dust, baste ham, and dissolve driveway grease [credit so, now you know book]. wow! and i put the same stuff that can be used to clean toilets into my stomach. hmmm

ok, i think this might do it for this blog inquiry. nothing all that great to report. just the where-abouts and festivities of a holiday weekend with a little ruffles and lace...

cheers,
nb
