To Do Today.

I have a few things I need to do today. Actually, I have a lot of things to do today. I even woke up extra early to get started.  

  • Napkins/Cutlery set up. (50% Done)
  • Guest seating chart.
  • Test the record/foam idea.
  • Laundry. Tons of it. 
  • Wash the dog.
  • Crop glitter circles for records.
  • Fix those ice buckets. Make em prettyful!

I think that's all for today. And I woke up exhausted. I'm going to pass out by the end of this day.

Sarussi = EPIC!

Yesterday, Lolo (sister), Bryant (boyfriend), and I went to Sarussi! This place is one of those Miami places to eat. A hole in the wall that offers epic food. They have 16'' sandwiches, packed with amazing Hispanic meats! All 3 of us had a Churrasco (Flap steak) sandwich with mozzarella, tomatoes, shoestring fries and their special sauce. Lolo had bought these groupon type certificates for $5 and it was for $15 worth of food. We bought 40'' worth of sandwiches for like $20 total!

If you're in Miami, you need to try this place out:  6795 SW 8th St, Miami, FL 33144

Did I mention Man Vs. Food did a challenge there? Check it out!

Money Honey.

It sucks being unemployed. Or slightly self-employed but not doing as well as I want lol. I want money. I want to buy things. I'm also mostly tired of being home all day. I want to get out, have something to do. Not just sit here and waste away on the internet. My sleep has really suffered, my eating schedule is out of order. I'm all kinds of backwards. All because I'm not working.

There's so many, too many, people put there in my same predicament. We should all band together and do something lol Not really sure what though. I'm just ranting now...

Catch Me.

Catch Me.
Just a little something... I loved the pattern of this dress/leotard. So I played with it.

To Do Today.

I have so many, many things to do today. I can barely keep track. And I have to wait for Bryant to get out of bed as well. 

  • Glitter the centerpiece cutouts.
  • Finish cutting the damn cutouts.
  • Cut and Paint foam.
  • Edit photos for slideshow.

I'm pretty sure there's more I can't remember!

Gaga, my favorite dress.

Gaga, my favorite dress.
I went to the Monster Ball, and Gaga wore this towards the end, while singing "Paparazzi". I loved it. I had seen it once online, but never could find more pics. Makes sense now, it's her concert wardrobe, there wouldn't be as many verifiable pics of it. After a major search, I found a few usable pictures of it. Enjoy.

50th Birthday for my Mom :D

Me and my sister are secretly planning a 50th Birthday party for my mom. Thankfully she doesn't read blogs or anything of the sort so I can freely post this :D It's a 1950's theme sock hop type of thing.

To save money we've basically done everything from scratch. I was working on the center pieces today. Round, clear plastic base, with a clear tube attached, which I've rolled up a blue glittery tulle inside, then we're gonna put a record on top, and a cut out of different pop culture stuff from the 50's. Each table will be called depending on what's on that record.

We still haven't acquired the records yet. I've been working on the cut outs, and the tulle so far. I'm doing all the creative/crafty work. My sister is all about the connections and calling people, places etc. Hopefully I can add some pics with this blog. We'll see, I get lazy for uploading.

I'm So Fucking Excited.

Today was a pretty good day.

Me and my sister have been planning a 50th Birthday party for my mom in secret for the past month or so. It's a Fifties theme party, she loves stuff from the 50's. So toy we did a lot of errand for the party.

At the end of the night, we hit Flanigan's, for their 50% all booze special. My new fave shot: Melon Ball! It's simple, it's strong, it's sweet. We had 8 shot between both of us, and it was only $25! That's a deal right there.

Now, the real excitement is tomorrow. Lady Gaga concert! I've been dying to see her perform. She is seriously one of the very, very, very few artists I truly admire and enjoy. I think I've only been fans of 3 bands/artists my entire life: Hanson (I know it's silly, but I love the message of their music, and they have great talent), No Doubt/Gwen Stefani (Loved them before they did "Just A Girl" which was their breakthrough song), and now Lady Gaga.

When Gaga first started, I didn't like her/ I thought her weirdness was a product of marketing. I loved her style, but I thought it was an agents clever idea of getting fans. I watched, studied, read everything about her for a year. I finally realized, that this is all her. She is  putting a theatrical show for the world, and she is the sole actress. That kind of talent I admire. She re-invents herself, re-creates herself, revives herself. I love it! This is the kind of creativity, originality I always craved from an artist in a music generation that is all copy-cats and marketing schemes. 

TomorrowI'm going to have a blast seeing her live. Me, my sister, and Gaga! Cannot wait!

Hypocritical Moment of the Day

This hypocritical moment of the day was brought to you by my boyfriend.

My boyfriend is wonderful. I have no complaints. We get along wonderfully. He's the love of my life. But every once in a while, shit goes down. That's normal, like in any relationship.

Basically, he's on Facebook, and I was in bed, and looked over. I notice he has a friend or is following a page of this pretty little slutty model, who shared some video titled "Freaky Girls" or something along those lines. I'm a woman, I'm defensive if my man looks at another woman. This is natural instinct. Except, he doesn't ever look at other women. He says that it's disrespectful to me. I agree, and love that he thinks  like this. But out of the blue, he has some slut on his friends list? And he gets upset with me for pointing it out?

Am I wrong here? I mean I'm not like psycho jealous or anything. I trust him. I just don't like being disrespected. I got bothered that he follows some model on facebook who's half naked. Yet if I mention Johnny Depp, he rolls his eyes at me and is suddenly offended. Why are you being hypocritical with me? That isn't you. That's never been who you are. 

And this all made me feel insignificant, like I'm not enough for you, I'm not sexy to you. I'm a woman, a human, these actions make me feel insecure about myself. So I think I have all the reason to get upset at this. Even if you think it's silly. My emotions, insecurities, self-image, respect... is silly to you. Whatever.
