Day 44 - And My Boyfriend Is...

A Surfer!

Legal Eagle wrote our little email to Bride Brain about our boyfriends and whatnot. Apparently they are both surfers who live near the beach and like a block away from each other!



^ Are you my boyfriend?

And when I thought LE was taking it too far making them both surfers, she responded oh-so-wisely:

Well, come on, everyone out here is a surfer.

So, we didn’t give them names or anything, but apparently we have been dating them for a while, oh and Mom and Dad, you already met them both and adore them. Yeah, we’ve even brought our parents into this!

I’m just happy to have all this documented in email because I have the worst time sticking to lies and remembering stories.

In fabulous other news, my review of Californication is one of the top stories on Buzzine. Go me!

California is quite hot right now, 80s or so, but I here Chicago is quite chilly. Let’s just hope it doesn’t snow there anytime soon!!

Day 32 - First Comes Praise...

Then comes money???

As I have continued my freelancing, things are getting better. And I have had a few editors tell me how impressed they are with what I have done and with my clips.

This is a good sign and is slowly putting me in a better mood.

But what is putting me in a really good mood is that my mom finally sent me some pictures from their trip out here.



How adorable are we?! And who knew that wetsuits could be so flattering.

I think that picture makes this blog enough for today. Plus there really isn’t much going on here.

Except tomorrow I am covering the Stand Up 2 Cancer event! Should be interesting…

Day 29 - Call Me Gidget...Or Gadget

So my parents have come and gone! And oh what a trip it was!

The absolute craziest thing we did was take a surfing lesson!



^ Me (Gigdet/Gadget) and my mom (Moon Doggie/Kitty)…I’ll have to get the before picture because it is way cute!

The nicknames are a long story, but I think these are the names we settled on.

Surfing was insane and exhausting and I only stood on my board like a few times, but my mom was a master at it. She even got a minor surfing injury, which I was a little jealous of.

My parents also fell in love with Wahoo’s fish tacos and I couldn’t drag them away from Huntington Beach.

Plus mine and LE’s cats were somewhat nice to my parents and hung out a little with them. So overall, everyone had a lovely time.

I would write more, but I am hungry for lunch and have to get my apartment back in order. Until tomorrow…
