july 1, 2008 and it is bluetooth cali day. a day i haveNOT been counting down as today is the start of the new law of NO talking [or texting or checking your e-mail or surfing the net] on your mobile cellular while driving. sad to think that peeps were actually texting while driving [yes, i am guilty of that].
here it is, they did it to me. made a law where now i have to look like even more of a dodo while driving. yes, one of those who looks like i am talking to myself. i could pretend i was talking to the kiddos in the backseat; however, the only time i can really chat on the mobile is when they aren't in the car. i just need to remind myself that everyone will be looking like a dodo with me since it is a law and i don't need to give cali justice anymore of my money. it doesn't grow on trees for me...especially out here ;) now for the rest of SoCal, i think it does so i need to find those trees!
so, that was the beginning part of my day. screening which calls i would actually answer or who i would call with this ear piece in my ear. the second part is pretty darn cool as i saw a very sweet pic opp.
i was on my way to do a costco stock-up of all those surplus goods for the fam, when i saw this [see image to the left]. wow, is pretty much what came outta my mouth [no, i don't talk to myself ;)]. this yellow bug parked in what was at the time an empty parking lot, stacked high with goods. now this is what you call guerilla advertising at its best. it definitely made me look and obviously take a pic. ikea is having their twice yearly sale and definitely wanted us drivers to know. so for those of you who have an ikea in your neighborhood...go check 'em out, see if you get some steals and if this guerilla advertising works on you. i unfortunately wasn't able to go in to shop as i banned myself from shopping for the month of july. yes! i know i am crazy. what am i thinking? what am i gonna do in all my spare time? most importantly, what am i gonna wear?!!!!? so anywho, fun guerilla advertising right there in front of my nose.
now i am just killing time and procrastinating my gym appearance. i so need to get back on the gym wagon as i fell off a month ago with all my vacay's in june. did so good up until i left for cabo. which was an AMAZING time @ esperanza resort with my gal pal amy k. came back from cabo and had a friend in town for a couple days [the waterfront misses us man!], then i left for kc fun. which definitely leads to many adult friendly beverages and good eats with the kc peeps! came back to cali and my bro and nat came in for a visit. hit up the restaurant scene very nicely. didn't drink as many adult friendly beverages as i
normally would since they were underage; however, still a week of no gym and one too many doritos. so nostalgic. side note: did you know doritos have been produced since 1966. wow! i never realized they were that old'school...oh, and they come in 16 flavors. amazing stuff.well, i guess this does it for this day of ruffles & lace. peace and cheers...
