Such a great Weekend!

I had such a great weekend!!!! Friday I worked. It was kinda slow but I would have stayed open until 2...Sparky didn't want to tho so we shut down around 1am. That's cool. On Saturday Ricky came and picked me up and we went to Mexican town for dinner. El Zocalo's to be precise. It was SOOOO yummy! Then we went over to La Gloria bakery for dessert. I had him try a churro and a mexican wedding cookie. He LOVED them (of course)! I told him I want the wedding cookies @ my wedding and he was like "heck yea!" lol

After that we went to Boogie Fever in Ferndale to meet up with Annette and her friend Karen (she looks like Better Midler with dishwater blonde hair) That was alot of fun! I felt kinda conspicuous and didn't dance, but I had fun watching everyone! There was a guy there I called Shaq (he was HUGE!) and Jay Leno was there too (swear he looked like him...just a little younger) And this guy who was so frigging nasty! Supposedly he's actually a P-I-M-P and he was there with his hos! He had one black , one white (man she was nasty) and one Asian (we think Phillipino maybe but weren't too sure) Karen said something about "maybe he has a big schlong" and so I, being curious, looked. He had a HUGE bulge in the front of his pants. It looked like he stuck a grapefruit there. It couldn't have been real. It wasn't moving lol.

We left there around 11 and met Kevin at another quieter bar. Boogie Fever is great and I think I wanna have at least part of my bachelorette party there, but the music changed around 11 and went from 70s & 80s to rave type stuff. OH! There was a bachelorette party there and we got to take a look inside the bus they rented (take a peek yourself HERE) It was so cool! $570 for 6 hours tip included. So if we got 20 people confirmed that would be a little less than $30 each. It might be too expensive, but who knows! We could even maybe get it for the Saturday night after the wedding.

We parted ways and Kevin and I went to Gizmo's for a drink before going home and ran into Smitty from the Black Sheep. That was kinda cool but kinda sad cuz it reminded me how much I miss the Sheep :(

Sunday we woke up and ran out to Hamtramck to get a Weslo Cardio Glide Excersisor for me:D $30!!! (It's so cool! I'll post a couple pics after this. I'm so excited! I can't wait! I start tomorrow. I did a little yesterday when we got back from Joey & Julie's last night and it's pretty fun!) Then we went to Joey & Julie's for Joey's bday party. BBQ. It was fun and I got to show everyone my wedding ideas. The only downside was my little shadow Zachary didn't cling to me like usual, he was Kevin's shadow. He said he wants Uncle Kevin to take him to see Star Wars and I asked if I could go and he said no :( Little boogerhead!

Sunday night we went to karaoke at Somewhere in Wyandotte (that's the name of the bar...HONEST!) and Carol and Al met us up there. We watched the Pistons game and after they had karaoke for a couple hours just for the heck of it. It was so much fun! Relaxed and not too loud and I got to talk to Carol and Al which is always good;) After we went up to 7-11 and ran into Richard up there. He's back. So we talked for a little bit and I'm gonna give him a call Wednesday. If he gets a car Kevin's going to try and get him into his place. Right now he's working as a dishwasher at Fire Mountain on Eureka in Taylor and he's only making $6/hour...and he's been there a year! Kevin's place STARTS dishwashers @ $8!!!

Today was hard to wake up, but wake up we did cuz Ricky invited us over for a BBQ!!! It was supposed to be us, Annette and John, Celia and Esther, my mom, and of course Ricky's mom and brother and him. Well we were the first to show up around 2:30pm....and the only! We had a good time tho! We talked and ate and then went for a drive over to check out our new house...it's only like 10 minutes from Ricky's house! I could seriously ride a bike to see him when we move (after I lose weight and get into slightly better shape of course) He also drove us around town to show us where things were and also showed us the Condo he wants in Farmington Hills (it's so pretty!!!) We left around 6pm and he loaded us up with all the 2 liters of pop (like 6) plus a plate of potato salad, a plate of macaroni salad, a plate of meat (burgers and bbq chicken),a bowl of fruit salad, a plate of chocolate cake, and a HUGE 22 lb bag of ice (cuz he needed the freezer space lol) So we have dinner for tomorrow lol.

On the way home we drove by our house again. I'm getting more and more excited about it as it gets closer. I can't wait to get out of this apt. We also stopped for movies. Rented De-Lovely (with Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd...it's about Cole Porter), The Motorcycle Diaries (about Che Gueverra) and some horror movie by Tobe Hooper (Texas Chainsaw Massacre). We just got done watching De-Lovely (well about an hour ago now) and I must say it was on par with "RAY" as far as a movie biography goes. Kevin Kline was brilliant...as was Ashley Judd actually. I cried at the end (and in a scene in the middle...can't tell you about it until I make sure it was based in fact...okay...I did some research and it's true but I still can't tell you as it's a spoiler. If you want to know highlight here:

he had some horticulturists take 2 roses thought to be completely incompatible and make a hybrid which was then named after his wife

Anyway, the movie was great!

Okay, I'm gonna try and get some sleep now. I'm so tired! Hopefully Kevin isn't snoring lol SWEET DREAMS!!!!
