Quick smiley story to let my mind breathe from work.
Tay had a work lunch with one of his manager's the other day and the conversation went something like this...
Mgr: So how long have you and your gf been together?
Tay: About 2.5 yrs
Mgr: Oh. You guys going to get married?
Tay: Yeah. Then we're gonna get a pommie :)
Gee golly. Sure do love my bf.

Madrid
Per request of a certain blogger, I am going to resume my Europe trip blogging! So our first stop was in Madrid for a night. Mind you, we had 3 weeks to make this Euro travel happen, so we were at any given city for 3 days AT BEST.
We had a surprisingly WONDERFUL flight on Comet with little desserts, peanuts, and Spanish beer :) We didn't request it, but Taylor saved it for later :) We landed in Madrid Friday mid afternoon and made our way to our Hostel. After settling in and all that jazz, we walked around and scoped out the area. On our way back to the hostel, we stopped by a Starbucks and had a refreshingly delicious mango tea something or other -- it was pretty warm out.
Traveling, you meet a ton of fellow traveling spirited people from everywhere. In Madrid, we met a nice Canadian named Rowan. Apparently, his parents were hippies and decided to name their kid after the trees in their backyard :) True story. We went out for tapas (spanish appetizers) and delicious beer. Already being jolly, we met some MORE people and headed over to a cathedral converted club called, JOY. Being in Madrid, our early arrival at 11:30 was welcome with a discount and the most alcoholic free beverage I've ever recieved! Dancing, drinking, friendships, and we made it back to our hostel safely :)
Unfortunately, Tay and I are teh SUCK at taking pictures, so we have NONE of Madrid OR Rowan. We exchanged email addresses but have currently misplaced our journal :) I can always update and edit at a later time if we ever touch base and get pictures from him.
The next day was spent recovering (Tay was HORRRRRIBLY sick and hungover). We decided to go to one of the most AMAZING parks and pretty much lay down reading and taking in the scene of all the local people. The park here was very much like our Cali beach scene. People laying out on beach towels, bathing suits or bikinis, reading and just hangin out :) It was so peaceful and serene. Certainly, it was the best thing to do given Tay's sick state.
We got ice cream on our way to catch our train, which was ultimately a poor decision, but DELICIOUS ice cream none the less. After all was said and done, we missed our train and ended up having a stressful run around to make it to our next destination -- Barcelona. Lesson learned: Give ample time to make it to the train station, or you'll get pwned like a no0b for more monies and possibly a deposit at your next hostel.
Sorry no pics this time round. Barcelona to come :) We have LOOOOOADS of pics there as it was our favorite and we spent so much time there.

Time to Shit my Quitty Job
LOL. Don't you love when you transpose numbers or letters or words in sentences to create new words in the english language?! I do it all the time, I think partly because I'm slightly dyslexic.
Share with me sentences or words you've combined and created!! :D

Mama's Berfday
Mama = Sameejo, best friend from college, harem of one :) Why we call each other Mama? We're weird.
Her birth day is October 19, 1984 and she came down to celebrate with MEEEEEEEEEE. After a bit of research, Mama decided that Saddle Ranch Chop House was our place to go. Restaurant turned bar at night, we would have only a taxi ride, and one place to stay at (what sold her was the option to roast your own smores over a fire pit for dessert) Here are a few of my fav pics.
(Left to right) Zeke, Chris, Allie, Andrew, Zach, Sameejo, Me, My Baby. We all had just got to the chophouse and they gave us a free shot to start the night!
Some kissy face ensued soon after the start of our evening!
The drinks were humongous and food was great :) There was a mechanical bull that all our fellas rode on! Unfortunately, no pics of the bull riding :( All in all, we took 213 pics total O_O Here goes some of my favs......
The left side of the Crew: Me, Christopher, Zach, Allie, and Andrew
The right side of the crew: Zeke, Jeff, and Tay
Jeff didn't order food. He ate my hair instead :(
My homefries:
We don't know her, but she took our group pic. We heart you Amy Krupiva!
Last pic. Me and my Breasticle
We all had a great time, aside from the place losing Taylor's bull riding pic. We taxi'd home and did a bit of magic mic karaoke-ing :)

Babies
I just wanted to introduce my babies to you all as they are very near and dear to me :)
Names:
- JoMar (right). A bit of algebra now -------> danJO + MARites = JOMAR
My aunt (mom's sis) is MARites, which is prounounced Muh-ree-tes. Her husband is DanJO, which is just really an awkward combination. Put them together and you get JOMAR. - Franchesca (left). Her nickname is Caca because Jomar couldn't say her whole name. It's the best nickname ever :) Cacacacacacaca!
- JoMar is turning 3 this November. Since both fams live in the same house (extended family living is very common among filipino families), his best friend is Caca and he looks over her like a brother. Unfortunately, he gets placed in front of the t.v. all too often, and as a result, is very much a media baby -- not the best way to develop a baby. However, it makes for some great laughs and good times as follows:
- He'll dance his lil toosh away to mostly any kind of music.
- He'll sing along with lots of the filipino t.v. jingles and songs.
- He'll imitate the "ahhhh" sound of refreshment after drinking water
- Caca is turning 2 this November. As the typical development of children, she looks up to JoMar and follows everything in his suit. She's super shy at first, but when she gains her level of comfort and security she's a BLAST. She's super giddy, itty bitty, and full of smiles and laughter.
You can see both their faces in this one :) They were antsy in the pantsy to go play some more.
So cute. She cried when I left :(
