Holy Hotness.

Yep...it was 92 degrees here this weekend. Yikes! That is seriously soooo hot when you're not used to it. We were a little overwhelmed, I'm not gonna lie...but it was nice to go to the beach and be out in the beautiful sunshine. We even played some frisbee in the hot hot sand! It hurt our feet a little, but was still fun - and the ocean definitely cooled them off. It's still very cold, so even on a hot hot day, you can cool yourself down in about 2 seconds.
So, Saturday we spent the morning/early afternoon at the beach, and then had some friends over for a BBQ in the later afternoon/evening. And our place got HOT! Living near the beach, most places don't have A/C...because you typically don't need it...but we could have used it this weekend! Oh well - we managed to survive, and we're working on our system of fans throughout the house, throughout the day to keep the place as cool as possible. Oh what fun.
In other news, my parents are coming so soon! I can't wait. And even before that - Luke is coming tomorrow!! Yay! We're gonna take him all over this town - and definitely to the beach, because there's no ocean in Idaho. Also, last night we watched The Breakup...not so sure yet what I thought of it. I like Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn, but I didn't enjoy all the yelling - especially from Vince Vaughn. It's just not natural to see him being so serious and angry. The movie definitely did make me appreciate Jordan, though. I love my husband, and I'm glad I'll never have to go through a breakup like that. No fun...
You know what else is no fun - TRAFFIC! I hate it with a passion! Yep, I said it. I HATE it! Today I was 15 minutes late for work (and I left at the same time I do everyday, which usually puts me to work about 10-15 minutes early). It was soooo annoying. Imagine creeping along at an average of 5-10 miles an hour, just watching the clock tick by, knowing that if you don't speed up (even just a little bit) soon, you're going to be really late! Talk about stressful morning. I HATE TRAFFIC. Nuf said.

I Just Won $200!!

Yep. That's right. I just won my office pool for the NCAA tournament bracket. I picked Memphis going all the way, and it's funny, because living down here in LA, nearly everyone picked UCLA to either win it all or to at least make it to the championship. And, as we all know, neither of those things happened, so I won!! Well, it wasn't quite that easy, but you get the picture...
In other news, Jordan just found out that he will be able to have the time off for Andrew's wedding and for the HUGE family reunion trip to Mexico!!!!!! That is actually more exciting than winning $200! WE'RE GOING TO MEXICO FOR 9 DAYS THIS SUMMER!! I absolutely can't wait - and - we're going with Jordan's ENTIRE extended family on his mom's side! It's going to be SOOOOOO fun!! Just imagine all of us at one hotel eating and drinking all we can eat and drink and laying by the beach all day - AND SCUBA DIVING!! Oh man - it's going to be so great! Can you tell that I'm excited? Well, you would be too if you had a free all-inclusive vacation awaiting you in June after KT's wedding!! What a great summer this is going to be!
That's all...that's really all I got. What else is there? I won $200 bucks and I'm going to Mexico for 9 days in June. Oh, and my parent's are coming down in two weeks and I REALLY can't wait! They're flying into San Diego (where Eric, my brother, lives) on a Thursday night and then Jordan and I are going down there on Friday after work to stay for two nights. And then we're going to bring them back to our place for two nights and I get to have that Monday off - so it's going to be so great. I'm going to bring them to my work and take them to the stages for Numb3rs - they love that show. Maybe they'll get to see Rob Morrow or David Krumholtz - that would probably make their day!! My cutie little parents...I can't wait to see them!
And - guess what else? Luke, Jordan's little brother, is coming in a little over a week! That will be super fun too - he's 15 and Jordan's little clone. Well, I guess I shouldn't say little - if you know him or have ever met him you know what I'm talking about - he's definitely not little. I can't wait to see him! Ok, so that's probably enough excitement for now. I've got to calm down...
