Annnnd I’m back

I got back Tuesday night. While driving from Key West to Miami to go home (in our Chrysler convertible we named “My Little Pony”) Juicy and I decided we weren’t ready to go home yet. So we stayed in Miami for another night =)

Not the best financial decision we’ve ever made (hotel room $450, switching flights $300, cabs to and from Miami airport to SoBe ~$100 + misc. expenses)

Totally worth it though. We stayed in our favorite hotel: Loews South Beach. Unfortunately we were so burned, drained, hungover, dehydrated,  sleep deprived and food deprived that we didn’t even go out at night. Pathetic.

We showered, put on the amazing robes and watched Discovery Kids all night while chugging water. DK is my new favorite channel. They have shows like The Challenge and Lost but it’s the kid version. Its amazing. “The Challenge” is called Endurance and “Lost” is called Flight 29 Down. Y’all should really really check it out. The kiddie drama is incredible.

We got to lay out on South Beach and the pool at Loews before our flight the next day. That’s why it was worth it. I’m tan. Yay!

On my Favorite Bench at Loews

Needless to say… now that I’m back at work I’m pretty much miserable. I’m still exhausted and feel like crying at random moments b/c I just wanna be back in the Keys instead of here in DC where it’s 30 degrees.

Thinking about the trip makes me wanna burst into tears but I’ll try my best to give you some highlights.

~We rented a white mini van for the drive from Miami to Key West. We named her Flower Child.

~We did end up having a theme night. Our first night there, in honor of Flower Child, was Hippie Night. We nailed it. Boys flocked.

Peace & Love

~We met a boy who is a captain on a yacht. He loved us. We got to hang out on the yacht late night and went back the next day to drink and “go for a ride”.

Posing on the yacht

~Turns out he’s not the captain. He’s just part of the crew. Seriously. Hilarious. We found this out when we asked to take it for a spin and he said he couldn’t actually do that. Idiot.

~I met a cute Key West boy. He actually IS a captain, but on a fishing boat. He takes people out on his boat to go deep sea fishing. Yes obviously we got to go deep sea fishing… for free =)

So gorgeous

~Since it was just the three of us… we decided to make it topless deep sea fishing. Sorry can’t show you pictures from that.

~Key West boy broke up with his girlfriend of almost 3 years… less than 3 weeks ago. We saw her out at some bars. The looks she gave me could have cut through a pineapple. I found it hilarious.

~His ex had left some of her jewelry at his house. Yes, I am now the owner of some really cute jewelry. Thanks ex girlfriend! Oh and a huge red hoodie, but I stole that from Key West boy, not his ex gf.

~I got into 4 fights. Confrontations really. I guess when local boys call dibs on  pretty girls there on vacation… other local boys don’t like it too much. When I’m drunk you don’t fuck with me, I can get very confrontational. I’m the girl that jumps in between boys who are fighting. Not really smart. I didn’t get hit or anything, just name called. “Ohh no! Fuck me?? I’m a bitch? Oh GOD NO what am I gonna DO!?!? No ones ever called me that before! I’m SO hurt!” Guys… please come up with some original material. I won every confrontation. They all ended with, “You’re like, an awesome chick, we should def meet up later.” No thank you. I’m good.

~We went to a strip club. Twice. No I did not strip. But I kinda wanted to.

~We caught a 55 pound Cobia.

It's taller than me

Well, it’s almost as tall as me.

~We rode mechanical bulls. I did awesome. The guy told us to “ride it like you’re making love…” uhhh ok creepy. It works though.

RIde IT YEE HAW!

That’s a really short synopsis. I gotta go home and get ready to go out tonight. Because of our little stop in Miami I have to work tomorrow (ON A SATURDAY) to make up for some time I took off that I didn’t have. FML. But that means I will probably blog.

Don’t Miss Me Too Much

Work… DONE

Payed Bills… YUP

Starting to freak out because I haven’t started packing for Florida… Definitely

I’m not taking my computer so I’ll be MIA till Tuesday. It’s gonna be really weird. But nice at the same time. Getting disconnected is healthy every once in a while.

I will have my phone though… Meaning I’ll be updating Twitter… Probably often. I can’t be totally disconnected, I’d go insane. So you guys can check out what I’m doing on vacation while your stuck at work

When I get back I know I’ll have awesome stories to tell so get excited. Here are some pictures to make you jealous. Seriously that’s the only purpose of these pictures.

Now that you hate me… I really will miss y’all!

Don’t worry I’ll have a daiquiri for you… or ten.

69 people love me

so im drunk. shocker. and at the beach actually. and felt like getting online b/c my brother is in the hot tub with his gf and i thought id give them a good 30 minutes alone… so im checking my blog and i have 69 hits. I have a dirty mind but i thought that deserved an entry.

reading that over, i feel like a huge huge huge loser. my brother and his gf are in the hot tub, while im in the beach house, alone, online, writing on my blog. dammit. but i dont want a boyfriend. its just at times like these that i do. i need a rent a boyfriend but that sounds highly whoreish.

wow… 4 days later, no longer at the beach and completely sober reading what i forgot to finish or publish. i am totally retarded sometimes. sadly it kind of makes me want to go get drunk.. too bad I’m at work. but not for too much longer yayyy! Damn, reading it also makes me wanna go back to the beach. ok im gonna dip outta here without finishing my time report, whatev ill do it tomorrow morning. worst worker ever, sometimes. like at 6 o’clock on mondays. and i am way too pumped about Monday night football to stay here any longer. ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!? haha yessss

Tim McGraw “Last Dollar”

1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you’ve given me the most beautiful set of wings
I’m so glad you’re here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and fly away
Hey!

Verse1:
I’m down to my last dollar
I’ve walk right through my shoes
Just a small reminder of the hell that I’ve gone through
But look at me still smiling
As I’m wondering what I’ll do
Since I ain’t got nothing
I’ve got nothing to lose
Everybody say “HaHaHaHa, HaHaHaHa”
My friends are always giving me
Watches, hats, and wine
That’s how I know this is serious
That’s how I know it’s time
I don’t have to worry
About things that I don’t have
Cause if I ain’t got nothing
I’ve got nothing to hold me back

Chorus:
1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you’ve given me the most beautiful set of wings
I’m so glad you’re here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and fly away
Fly away, fly away

Verse 2:
There’s nothing that’s worth keeping me
From places I should go
From happyville to lovingland
I’m gonna tour from coast to coast
I’m leaving everything behind
There’s not much that I need
Cause If I ain’t got nothing
I’m footloose and fancy free

Chorus

Look at me so free
Nothings holding me down(down)
Look at me so free
Can’t keep my feet on the ground

1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you’ve given me the most beautiful set of wings
I’m so glad you’re here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and
1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you’ve given me the most beautiful set of wings
I’m so glad you’re here today
Cause tomorrow I might have to go and fly away
Fly away, Fly Away, Fly away, Fly away
Fly

1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you’ve given me the most beautiful set of wings

(Tim’s Little Girls) 1-2-3 Like a bird I sing
Cause you’ve given me the most beautiful set of wings

In case you were curious… Hurricane names.

I just read my post about hurricane names and last night I did a bunch of research on it. I dont know why, HUrricanes are really cool to me. and im thinking of moving to key west so i was looking at their history. So, there has never been a Hurricane Heather, ever. There are 6 lists of 21 names that they recycle every six years, so this years list (like hurricane Hanna) wont be used again for 6 more years. UNLESS the hurricane is so damaging and costly that it would be considered in bad taste to reuse the name because of peoples bad memories of the storm. like Katrina… that name is now retired. there are 67 hurricane names that are now retired. SO im excited b/c im hoping Hanna is gonna be HUGE. Go on Hanna, be catastrophic. Then maybe it will be my turn when they replace the girl H name. I know thats awful but I just want a Hurricane named after me, is that so wrong? and if Hanna was really bad it would completely ruin my families beach trip next week, so that kinda sucks. but whatev, ok back to work.

Where I belong…

Key West. Seriously. Just got back Monday from 4 days there and 4 days was not enough at ALL. I’m so depressed right now being back home its pathetic. I know that probably always happens on vacation but I honestly felt just completely content down there. It’s my kind of lifestyle. Who says you have to conform to this stupid corporate way of life anyways? and what is success? whatever it is im probably never gonna make the money i need to make to consider myself “successful” so why not just go be happy and be successful at that?

I tried to explain that to my dad… he did not follow as well as i thought he would.

So i could tell you about my trip to key west but i would just be very very sad thinking about all the fun i had. so… highlights…

1. We got kicked out of a pet store… crazy old woman

2. I was interviewed on the 11 o’clock news by a pretty hot reporter (not a girls gone wild thing, like real news) however I was prettttty drunk

3. We made cool local friends, woohoo

4. We made non-local friends that were obsessed with us, creepy

5. I did not pay for one single drink. now that’s success.

6. We only had one day of Hurricaning weather (thank you Gustav) and it was really cool, I thoroughly enjoyed the wind and rain and thats what I told the reporter. (you can only imagine a drunk skantily clad girl going “who CARES if its raining!?!? ITS KEY WEST!!” oh jeez thank God it was local… all the way to miami… shit

7. I got to hold a huge snake (think Britney Spears) AND 3 parrots and an iguana at the same time.

8. We rode bikes everywhere!

9. When I got home (sad)  I went to a Jimmy Buffett concert that night, PERFECT. It was awesome!!

So there ya go. I am now looking for jobs in Key West. If i sell my car I’ll have a really good amount of money for a down payment on a house and a scooter haha and a bike too. Damn I love my car though. God I hate work.
