A Disney Winter Wonderland...



Friday night Joe and I met my Uncle Mike, Aunt Shauna, Hillary, Emily, Uncle Chris and Aunt Celia at Disneyland for Emily's birthday. I was soo excited to go because I had heard about the castle being decorated like it had snow on it. It looked absolutely AMAZING!!! There were tons of white lights all over the castle that look like icicles and snow. I was told that it goes through 3 different stages through out the day for the snow to appear. They didn't have the show because the winds were pretty strong, but I found this video on YouTube. The pictures don't capture how beautiful it looks. You really need to see it with your own eyes. Believe me, it is AMAZING!! (When there is 30 seconds left in the video, you can see all the lights light up as snow)

I'm "FOUND"!!!

So I guess I jumped the gun a little with my previous post. I decided that I had to give "Lost" one more shot and I am SOOOO glad I did!!! The next episode I watched was FINALLY THE HOOK!!! I have watched discs 3 & 4 today (another 5 plus hours!). Joe isn't one to watch let alone get hooked on any TV shows but when he said this to me, I knew he was also hooked, "You can't watch anymore episodes until I see you next weekend!" It's going to be a LONG week!!!

I'm "LOST"!!!???

My family is absolutely obsessed with the show "Lost". They are always saying what a great show it is and that I need to get in the loop. So, when I was at my parent's house the other day I decided to finally break down and borrow the first season. I watched the first two discs today (5 hrs and 20 mins) and am sad to say that I don't get it??? I kept waiting for that moment where you just don't want to turn off the show, but it never happened. I don't know if I can keep going? I want to due to the fact that everyone is soo "die hard" but I just don't know??? Please tell me that I haven't gotten to that "moment yet".....does it really exist? The only thing that kept me going was Jack AKA "Charlie from Party of Five"!!! (The last show I saw ended with Sun healing the girl with Asthma, Sawyer getting tortured for the inhalers and the Iraq guy leaving to go explore). I am completely LOST!!!!

The funniest thing just happened!!!!! Joe is playing Guitar Hero III on-line with our friend Ryan and they are talking to each other through their headsets as they are playing. I just heard Joe say, "Talk Dirty to Me"????? EXCUSE ME???? Come to find out that it was the name of the song they were going to battle each other on....I was getting a little worried!!!!

"Grandpa In A Speedo"...The SECOND Reason To Watch The Amazing Race!!!

You gotta love a Grandpa sporting a speedo!!! Yesterday was another entertaining episode of the Amazing Race. One of the "Road Blocks" was pull vaulting across a mud river. Each team had to choose one person they felt would be able to complete the challenge. One of the teams is a grandpa and his grandson. I don't know what they were thinking, but decided to have the grandpa do the task. After about 5 attempts, he felt that his clothes were holding him back because they were to0 heavy. So, he did what any other grandpa would do....stripped down to his speedos!!! It was classic! He knew exactly what he was doing because he made it right across!! Can't wait to see what next week has in store!! (FYI...this is on Sunday's, channel 2 at 8pm)


The Goths are still contenders!!! I loved how Vyxsin was pushing Kynt on the bike!! Normally wouldn't the guy be pushing the girl?? Kynt is lacking in the muscle category!!! Go GOTHS!!!

They actually did really well the first episode. Go Goths!!!! Just think of what they could do with 1 million dollars!!!???

"Today, I'm In YOUR World"...???

I was fortunate, once again, to get tickets to the USC game tonight at the last second. Guess what??? They beat Oregon State 24-3!!! My friend, Tracie, had some friends that had some extra tickets. These weren't just ANY tickets, but FREE tickets on the 50 yard line, right in the middle. I have been sick since Monday, so I probably shouldn't of gone. I am sure I will be paying for going later!! But, I just couldn't pass these up!!! These seats also came with food that was "all you can eat"!! You could get free hot dogs, peanuts, popcorn, drinks and even Haagen Das ice cream bars. So needless to say, we got pretty spoiled!!!

The friends who had these tickets had the cutest little boy named Collin. This was his first game and he was all decked out in USC gear. He had a jersey, beanie and a track jacket!! He has the prettiest blue eyes!!! He was soo good during the game and I couldn't get enough of him!!



This section of seats was quite entertaining. It is the alumni section, below the press box, so there are a lot of "older" people in this section. The ladies next to me were soo cute. Every time USC would score, they would hug each other!! The lady behind me was classic....she was SOO into the game and would make the best comments. Some of her comments were, "Get rid of him NOW" (referring to Booty), "BOO" (as Booty would throw the ball and the players would drop it), "Can your son play quarterback?" (referring to Collin taking over for Booty in the first quarter) and my favorite line, "You need to get out of this hole!!" (referring to USC even though they were up 24-3 and it was the 4th quarter!!). We also saw Anthony Davis. He is one of the great USC football players. He had the "sweetest" outfit on....black dress pants with a black shirt and a black tuxedo vest??? The best part about the vest was the rhinestone Nike swoosh!!! The ladies behind me kept shouting to him, "Hey, A.D."!!! Some lady attacked him with a hug!

The best part of the night was when this lady came up to us and told us we were in the wrong seats (we were over one too many). So we moved over and then this man, lady and young boy came to sit down. It was Arsenio Hall. There were probably a lot of people who had no clue who he was!!?? This lady acted like he was the president, clearing the section before he came and sat down. She would come back every now and then and bring him his food and do whatever he wanted. I was talking with Joe and doing the famous Arsenio pumping his fist and saying "Roo Roo Roo", when his son noticed what I was doing and told his dad (Aresnio). Arsenio looked and me and said "Hello". I started laughing and asked him if he still "had it" (referring to his famous shout). His comment to me was, "Today, I am in YOUR world".???? I about died!! Are you kidding me?? MY world???? WHO ARE YOU???? We were all dying at how important he made himself even though most of the people there had NO CLUE who he was!!!

(For those of you who have NO CLUE who I am talking about!!!)


It was a great night in "My World" and sad to say probably our last game of the season. I am hoping with the kind of luck I have been having, I might stumble upon some USC/UCLA tickets!!!! So if anyone has to have a pair lying around....I AM AVAILABLE!!! FIGHT ON!!!!! Hopefully USC will at least make the Holiday Bowl!!
