Birthday Adventures!




Greetings! 



What are you up to today? Perhaps like me, you are at work and taking a lunch break or maybe you’re working from home, or yet still maybe you’re homeschooling your kids. Either way, welcome! I have been diligently working on this week’s Weekly Wishes and today’s post is about #3, which is making birthday plans!


Often times over the years, since my birthday falls close to and sometimes is on Memorial Day, it has been spent traveling and visiting family. I was always made to feel special on my birthday with a cake baked (yellow cake with chocolate frosting of course), presents given, and the birthday song sung throughout the month by my parents. As of late though, I’ve been taking considerable thought into what I’d really like to do. When I turned 30, the Rent’s came down to visit and spent a couple days with me going around to all the spots I’d been wanting to go to.



The following year, I decided that I wanted to hop on a plane and visit one of my BFF’s and her husband and have a real gown-up birthday filled with exciting new foods, shopping, dancing, and all types of drunken fun times! See my 31 Pearls of Wisdom.



Last year The Boo and I spent what seemed like every waking minute at the movies, when we didn’t go to Medieval Times, the Georgia Aquarium, and weren’t indulging in fancy restaurants. 




This year since I love to travel, I was thinking of making it a beach birthday! I’ve heard a lot of good things about Destin, FL. Maybe also going to Savannah, GA and visiting the beach at Tybee Island. I’ll probably consult with Bing since they have a lot of travel info and tips. The other thought is just staying in town and being a tourist here. Maybe go and ride the Skyview ferris wheel downtown or maybe dress up and go see a play? The possibilities are endless!

What say you? Got any suggestions for me? Let me know!

Ciao!

It Was Almost a Hulk Out Moment..

Greetings peeps!

You ever been driving home minding your own damn business, waiting in line (a long line at that) so that you can go on through the green light to the next few blocks of freedom, when some dumb dumb decides to cut you off and jump ahead of you in line and almost cause an accident?

Yep.

That happened just no more than 30 min ago. Me being well...... me... I sped up when I saw what this ass clown was doing to try and squeeze her out and to stop her from cutting in front of me. Let's just be honest here for a moment shall we? It's one thing to LET someone in front of you in traffic. It's a whole other story when someone says, 'Say man... since I can tell that you're a driver that doesn't like to tailgate, let me go ahead and bogard my raggedy ass car in this non-existent space, because I'm too important and don't have time to wait in line like the rest of you. Oh and nevermind the small child that's in my backseat without a seat belt on. I don't care about her well being anyway.' 

Really? So not kool. Oh it called for a total Hulk Out Moment. What is the that, you ask? It's that moment when you're so pissy hot that you pretty much black out and proceed to beat someone down and/or mess with them until they cry and scream in fear that their life here on earth has come to a close. Instead of actually acting on my rage I let my imagine run forth wild, where when we make it through the light I cut her off and once we are on a two lane road I drive so incredibly slow that she gets mad enough to try and pass me, but then I speed up so that she cant and once she is forced to get back behind me because of on coming traffic I slow back down to aggravate her some more and then I speed on while laughing once I'm done with her. Bwahahaha! 

Anyhoo, in other news my birthday is next week on the 29th!! Happy Birthday to ME and all GEMINI'S! I'm excited to be hanging out all around town, having fun, enjoying delicious foods, seeing good movies, and finally going to the GA aquarium! Have a slice of spice cake with butter cream icing on me. :)

***Peace***

Summer Vacation... Day 1

Greeting all!

I am currently on vacation! 6 gloriously fun in the sun filled days in Savannah, Ga and parts of Florida. Yay!
I have to tell you that this is the first vacation I've taken, like the kinds you see of tv. You know the ones I'm talking about... You'll see a family take a vacation some where tropical and warm, they go swimming at the beach or the resort that they are staying at, and they buy ridiculously priced food and souvenirs. That kinda vacation. I'm on one and I'm loving it. :)


Day 1 started in Atlanta... Me and the rent's hopped in the car and took off down the road.


First stop was in Savannah, Georgia! I like Savannah a lot and hope to be able to spend more time there at some point. The spending of money on ridiculously high priced items started here with smell good handmade soaps. I'll be good and clean for a long long time.














Later the same day we made it to Daytona Beach.. Can I just say that out of all of the beaches I've been to thus far.. Daytona is the best! Maybe you can or maybe you can't tell, but these first two pictures are of a drive-in church......  A Drive......In..... Church!! Who knew such a thing existed!?!? I surely didn't..

 


Views from the room and the beach. :)







Looooooved the beach! Got to swim in the ocean and see and hear it from the balcony in our room. It was truly glorious! At some point in my life and it may only be after I've retired, but I will live near a beach. It probably won't be Daytona beach since everything seems to shut down by 10pm... Then again, if I'm retired living by the beach, I probably won't care about being out very late.

So that was day 1, and there's more pictures to follow tomorrow!

//Peace\\
