A few pics from the party in the Hood.....

This is Natalia, she is making the sangreia for the party....well after she tested the wine to make sure it wasn't poisoned.

The finished product, Natalia's sangreia at it's finest. She had to make it 4 times because we kept running out. But we all got our fruit that day.:)

Natalia in my hat, apparently the more you drink, the more my hat gets passed around.

Like I said, the hat got around. LOL This Is Rodrigo The d.j. who is single...I can't stress that enough.

This is Natalia's other brother, Nahuel (pronounced Noel) who isn't single but cute none the less, and our good friend Carlos who is our friend Elisa's cuzin. He's hot too, but not single dang it I think he and Natalia would make a cute couple.


from left to right: Nova, Natalia, Carlos and Elisa (rodrigo's d.j. partner)

Carlos, elisa Dolli and lyndia

Rodrigo breathing fire in my backyard.....oh yeah ladies he's still single. LOL

This is the morning after.....bodies all over my livingroom floor and couch, I didn't even take pics of the upstairs bedroom out of sheer fear.

After we cleaned up the house a bit, they were hungry and hungover. I had to take them to the pancake house to keep them alive.

Natalia re hydrating herself to avoid the on comming hang over. LOL

There are so many advantages to staying sober. I get to watch my friends do stupid things, document them with photos for black mail down the line, and I don't wake up feeling like poo. Don't get me wrong I partake in a drink or 2 but never more than that for fear I will miss something compleatly photo worthy, plus CLEARLY I cannot depend on my friends who are compleate lushes to stay sober enough to take care of me if I decided to over drink. So in essence I am always the sober driver when we go out. It's just easier that way. and I get great photo ops from the front seat to the back seat like the famous one below.....enjoy

That would be Natalia's brother Nahuel passed out in my back seat...yet again.:)

Now see if you drink you miss out on all these chances for pics like this.:) Or this:

Isn't it special?So stay sober everyone...it's way more entertaining! :)

Rotten house gnomes

Keeping my eye out for the pesky house gnomes

Okay I had just returned home after doing my laundry at mom and dad's house (yeah like I would go to a laundry mat and pay for it) and as I was retreving said laundry from my trunk, one of the random mexican neighbor chicks ran out of her apartment screaming at me in spanish. A lot of things ran through my mind, like oh crap, have I dated her husband, and or her son or both or what, cuz she sounded so pissed off, but she was just so excited to see me because she wanted to return my glasses! Apparently the house gnomes had stolen my glasses, took them out side of the house and laid them in my parking stall right where my car door would be if I had been parked there! I mean clearly it was a set up, they just wanted it to look like I was dumb enough to let them fall outta my purse as I opend the car door. So I guess the random Mexican chick found them and her husband told her they were mine (I swear I haven't been seeing him...I don't think) and she was kind enough to return them a few days later. I was so happy! I of course went out yesterday and got a new pair, but hey I liked the old pair better. So yeah mystery solved.....although I knew it was the blasted house gnomes all along.

a few guys I am seeing

this one is Rodrigo, Natalia's hot brother the d.j. I'm not seeing him cuz thats just gross, but I am putting his pic up cuz, he is single and a d.j. and a construction worker and is from south america. so he's hot and single if anyone wants him, he plays gutair also.

Okay the guy on the far right next tome is Doug a.k.a dill. he is my apartment manager's best friend. He does have hair I swear I just don't know where it went in this picture. He's not cute and he's kinda a dork. He is a pool player by porfession, but he makes me laugh non stop. I rarely see him because he moved but he stops by for a monthy sushi date. Oh and yes that is a huge bowl of some alcoholic concoction in the middle of the table with long straws, apparently sharing ones cooties isn't a frear among my crowd.

This one is fredrico. He's my ex boyfriends best friend. I date him to #1 piss off my ex and #2 he's cute. it's like a bonus to date him because I an drive my scum sucking ex crazy and have a nice date all at the same time. He works for Kelly More paints and is the district manager for his store, he speeks 5 languages and has 2 kids.

This one is Cesar, he's okay to look at, but I just don't think he's that hot. I see him off and on due to the fact that he hates that i date more than 1 guy at a time. He has twin daughters and is actually my age (a 1st!)

This guys name is Nick, he is also friends with Nate and erik (below pics) another 22 year old hottie, I earn my cougar status. LOL He works as a trucker. He is really nice, i wish I could keep him. LOL

the hot man sandwhich I spoke of below, always keep your dates seperated if you are gonna juggle two at a time. so this is Nate and Eric, hopefully they will stay best friends. LOL

This one is Eric, he has a bunch of jobs, emt, bouncer for clubs, body guard work, ti kwan do champ and local football hero.He is super nice but alas he is only 22 and best friends with Nate, the guy pictured below. How do I date them both at the same time? always stay sandwhiched in the middle if we all go out together so they can't fight. LOL

This one is named Nate (go figure) he's only 22 and can't remember the muppets or fragle rock. we have nothing in common but darn is he pretty! He thinks I am cool cuz I have my own place while he still lives with his parents. the young ones are amused so easily. He's not that smart I distract him with shinny objects some times to entertain myself.

This one is sean, not the guy from the ruby room, I met this one in the starbucks parking lot. He was selling magizines. He managed to get a date with me even though I didn't think he was cute, it was a slow week I guess. Turns out he is an amazing artist and has tons of personality, but he looks like my brother so it kinda freeks me out.

This one is Jorge, he's from Portugal. He's got a cute accent and pretty eyes, but alas no social s number and a pissed off ex wife that likes to call me and yell at me in portugeese, I yell back in Japaneese so I guess it's only fair. LOL

This is A.z from Maracco, he is a reasearch chemist and pretty hot. my parents like him cuz he's super rich, he is the reason I have a gucchi handbag. But he lives kinda far away so I rarely see him.

Okay so thats a few of the guys I am seeing at the moment. Britt and I counted how many guys I am dating while I was up there and we got to 19 guys. I don't have pics of them all but I had theese so I hope you enjoyed looking at them and reading their stats. I was amused puting them up here. I'm sure there will be more pics soon, I have been kinda sliding on the picture taking when it comes to my dates lately. I must be getting older...or my dates younger. So while you guys have your dream man and cute kids, I'm still working on it. you guys are so dang lucky you don't have to do this kinda crap anymore. :) LOve ya!

This guy is Jesse, I have thought he was hot for 3 years, but everytime I run into him he has a girlfriend and I am single or vice versa. But when this pic was taken it was at a party and he was single, but I had brought a date to the party. :( I can never seem to get it right.

just seeing if I am cleaver enough to add pics here.

Me and Natalia at the Lost weekend lounge watching her brother d.j. (and checkin' out men)

Hey I did it. *pats self on back* Oh boy watch out you will see photos of my sananagins! this was on our vacation with Auntie elaine.

Date with Random bar guy......

Okay, so My last post included the fact that I lost my glasses before I hit the bar with Natalia. What I didn't include was the random guy that got my number. His name is Sean. He is pretty cool. He is only 23 (apparently I am a cougar) but really cute. We have been texting and talking on the phone a lot and I figured we should have a date. So I asked him to come over and play scrabble with me and we can chat. So he came over and we played a game. This guy has 2 degrees in computers and his highst scoring word was mice. I don't even know what to think. Honestly, this guy could launch the space shuttle from an atm machine, but scrabble was a mystery to him. but he's hot so of course I'm going to see him again, because I am shallow.
So Tomorrow I have a date with a portoriccan guy neamed Eric, his arms are bigger than my thighs so I am thinking he can lift the couch so I can clean under it. But he's the first guy I dated that has more tattoos than me, so thats a plus. (my parents will just love that! LOL)
I have a theroy, that there is something wrong with every guy I am dating, 1 has no social s number, 1 has no car, 1 is so young he can't recall the muppets, 1 has no job, 1 has an angry ex wife that wont stop calling me and 1 has a job that takes him out of state all the time....the list gos on. I think would be great if I could somehow take all the things I like about the guys I am dating, and combine them and make the perfect Mr. Potato head man. Like a franken stud. That would be awsome! I think I need to look into that, so just incase it's a remote possibility that I can just make or harvest the perfect man at some point, lets all support stem cell reasearch it just may be my only chance of marrital bliss and offspring. And on that note, I'm going to bed. Love you guys.:)

Dude where's my glasses?

Okay I Natalia and I were getting ready at my house to go out to watch her brother d.j. in Oakland at a bar called the Ruby Room. I swear I remember putting on my glasses to hook my earrings and then taking them off and putting them down on the counter. since I only need them for reading I wasn't going to briong them with me to the bar, honestly it's so dark in there, that you can't see 2 feet infront of you so whats the point anyway ? Anyway we get home at 1:30 a.m. and I can't find them anywhere. I had to wake up at 6 a.m. to go to work and I looked fo rthem in the morning to no avail. SO I had to go to work and squint all day when I had to read something, duhh I am a teacher I read all dang day! I ended up with a raging migraine that still exsists. I got home and turned my whole house upside down and still can't find them. I belive that I may have hateful house gnomes. These Gnomes are mostly known for taking the other sock you are looking for, but are related to the car key gnomes as well. I don't know how to get them back. I swear I looked everywhere, my neighbors even came over to help me look. nothing was found....well except for a package of airline peanuts in my couch cushins...I haven't flown in two years so that was kinda nasty, but no glasses. I am at a loss. any one have any suggestions. ither to where my glasses may be or how to apease the stupid house gnomes? I'm all ears....

Party in the hood

Okay, for those cuzin's who haven't seen where I live, I live deep in the hood. The ghetto if you will. I live here because it's the only place I can afford and my parents are scared to death to visit, so I have tons of privacy. I also live here for the sense of adventure. I find it amusing and entertaining to have to step over the chalk outline of the desesed gang members and lift the shiny yellow police tape just to get to my car. I also enjoy the mariachie (sp?) music on a a daily basis at all hours of the day. Plus around the 4th of July I get to play a well known game in the hood called "fireworks v.s. Gun shots. you get points if your right. Any way, with this all said it's apparent that I don't live in a neighborhood that is friendly to "outsiders." I have been here for 3 years and haven't had a lot of friends over because well honestly I like them and I don't want them to get shot just comming over so I have never had a party at my place. Howerver my best friend natalia and I decided that it was high time we have a party at my place and just see what happends. we planned it as we were eating lunch at the local pub. It seems the guest list grew the more we drank beer. funny how that works. we decised that we needed a theme so we made it Futbol (soccer) because spain beat germany a few weeks ago. okay so we were stretching for a theme give us a break. any way, we sent out 30 invites shapped like soccer balls mind you, and waited. A few people called to say they would make it and a few called to say they couldn't. So we pretty much expeceted the usual turn out of 8 to 10 people. The party day was Friday and I cleaned and Natalia prepared the wine, cheese, crackers, fruit and made the Sangreia. Natalia's brother is a D.J so he brought the music and Natalia's other brother brought a few gutairs and his busty girlfriend. 23 people showed up. 23 people each brought at least 3 bottles of wine in addition to the 17 bottles we already brought to the party. about 2 hours into the party it was apparent that cleaning my house would be quite a chore, I should just move. It was loud and crazy, No one barfed (always a plus among my friends) and people finally left at 5 a.m. when I woke up later I steped over various bodies covering every floor of my 2 bedroom apartment and viewed the destruction. I did have a kitchen when we started this shindig, however I couldn't find it. All I saw was a war zone and some random cat licking goat cheese off of a dollar store platter. Just when I was about to hang my head and start crying, I hear it, a bubble and a perking sound, I smelled it rich and bold, then Rodrigo the D.J. handed me the cup of steamy goodness with cream and sugar and all was well. The bodies started to rise and become human again. It was 12 in the afternoon befor we were all up and making sense. and we started to clean. we were done cleaning by 5 and took a break to go eat breakfast at I.H.O.P . it was a mess and I have enough wine left over for another party and enough cheeses of the world to feed all those starving kids in africa my mother was always telling me about. All in all it was an awsome party. If I knew how to post pics here I would. But I don't cuz I suck. LOL. So Natalia juat called me againa nd we are planning another party, this time a Vampire theme......why wait for October right?
