The wheels on the bus

Recently, a bunch of my friends and I went wine tasting in Temecula. We took a shuttle tour from Go Grape. So. Much. Fun. We did the vineyard picnic tour. It's really a good deal as you get a box lunch, transportation to four wineries, and at least 5 glasses at each winery, all for about $100 a person. We were lucky and got to go to 5 wineries since our tour was running ahead of schedule. I started out drinking every single glass that I had. By the third winery, I couldn't do it. I was getting so drunk. I only drank the ones I really like, then I gave the others to The Boy.

The tour starts in the morning. They pick you up from your hotel, along with other groups that are going on the tour. You all pile in and go from there. It's funny to see how the atmosphere on the bus progresses throughout the day. At first everyone is quiet and talking only to their group of friends they came with and using their indoor voices. By the end of the day, when everyone is good and liquored up, all of that is thrown out the window. Our bus was pretty rowdy by the time we left the last winery and were on our way back to our hotel. Girls started dancing in the aisle. People were hooting and hollering. It was some good times. I highly suggest everyone try it some time.

A little time off

I've been off from work this whole week. I've been doing a lot of nothing. I've been sleeping in (which I never do. I'm an early bird), playing with the dog, and watching movies on On Demand. It feels good to just hang out for a few extra days. I did drive up and hang out with The Boy for a little bit. This is what we did.



Yup, that's Kanye West. I know it's hard to see, but it really is him. He was at the club Area in Los Angeles Tuesday night along with Common. It was crazy crowded up in there. I'm talking standing shoulder to shoulder with some sweaty/smelly people, but it was worth it. They basically did a little mini-concert. They performed Go, Flashing Lights, Stonger, Good Life, and a few others I can't remember right now. What makes it even better is that it was free to get in. My friend has the hook up and was able to get us in without a cover charge. Perez Hilton even posted about it.

Where have all the girl scouts gone?


I love girl scout cookies. My most favorite of them all is the thin mints. I could eat a whole box of them all by myself. Seriously, I love them. This year I haven't seen any girl scouts at the stores, which is odd because I go to the grocery store A LOT. Once a week at least. I didn't realize that this Sunday was last day of girl scout cookie season. I am so sad. If I had known, I totally would've driven around to find me some cookies. The Boy actually bought some cookies a few weeks ago, but he didn't buy the kind I liked. What good is he to me if he can't even buy me one little box of cookies? He just might need to be replaced.

It's getting hot in herre

It's like it's summer outside. The sun has come out and the air conditioning has been turned on. You know what that means? A trip to the mall. I'm in need of some new tank tops and short sleeved clothes. I picked up a few tops at Nordstrom and Forever 21. This was my first big shopping trip in awhile. I wanted to buy so much stuff. I forgot how much fun shopping can be! My bank account, however, does not agree. More than half of my new clothing is for work though. That makes me feel a little bit better about my purchases. This shopping trip is definitely helping me get out of my weird funk.

Where ya been?

It's been awhile since my last post. I wish I could say it's because I've been so busy with fun and exciting activities. Alas, I cannot. I've been around, just reading other people's blogs. I just haven't posted in awhile. I've been in a funk the past couple weeks. It's not really a depression, but depression-like. I come home at the end of the day and just want to be alone. Didn't want to go anywhere. Didn't want to do anything. It was an overall blah feeling. I started writing a few posts, but never finished/posted them. I've been uninspired and unmotivated lately. I think it's over now. I'll try to post something less depressing and more exciting tomorrow. For now, I have an accounting book calling my name.
