The most beautiful bedding EVER.

Holy crap this duvet set was originally $1,035.00 and is now on sale at ideeli.com for $499.00 for a queen and originally $1,135.00 for a king and on sale for $599.00.

Okay, I'm all for luxury... but holy crap balls what can possibly make this eleven hundred bucks? I've never even heard of Signoria... but then again I'm… Continue

80's Prom Party at V Lounge Friday October 24th 9pm-2am

Get the chance to relive your prom all over again (for those who actually would have had a prom in the 80s...)!

For those of us (me) who didn't get their prom groove on in the 80s, I've sure got a good imagination! I'm sure we can all come up with stellar outfits. Don't think I won't be competing for best dressed...



Come dressed to impress with your best taffeta dress or ruffled shirt, as this… Continue

I'm on morphine so don't expect a long blog, but I'm out of surgery and in my room. PISSEDD that I have to share a room. sooo lame.



My mom (and Dad) bought me a great "No More Thyroid" presenr! a purple learher Marc by Marc bag.





I talked the surgical nurse into taking a picture of my thyroid after they removed it.

Tomorrow I'm having a thyroidectomy (for sure this time!!!)

I have to be at Mission Hospital at (you're eyes are not deceiving you) 5:30AM.... talk about torture. My surgery is at 7:00am. The procedure lasts about 3.5 hours, and then I'll be staying two days at Mission Hospital.



I think everyone should come visit me! :)



I promise as soon as I'm lucid (this is my crazy devotion to theMET) I will be doing a blog with pictures from my hospital bed… Continue

Jay Alice and I super sad about losing in poker. haha



I was lucky enough to be invited to hang out with the superest coolest people on Saturday night, and we had a blast. I hadn't been to a shooting range in quite a while, so that was really fun. I had no idea what kind of arsenal Sam had! That rifle was intense! Next we went to this soul food place for dinner. THE FOOD WAS SOOOOOOO GOOD. After that we hung out and played poker.



The night started out with… Continue
