Busy Weekend!
This weekend rocked!
Okay, so my friend and I were going to go to the Health and Beauty Expo that they were having at the civic center downtown on Saturday. We had already planned it, but then we found out that Rolf's (a high end salon around here) was going to be giving haircuts to raise money for the Red Cross and Hurricane Katrina. Not only could we get $90 haircuts for $30, we'd be helping a good cause! Kick butt!
Of course, the bad part was that we had to be there at NINE AM ON A SATURDAY!!! Ugh! But we cruised on down and only had to wait about 15 minutes for our turns in the chairs.
Let me tell you, that Rolf is a HOOT! First of all, he has this really great, thick Austrian accent. Oh, and he lisps just the teensiest bit, which makes it even greater. You could tell that this man spent waaaaaay more time stying his hair than I ever do (sad for me, I know). He had this really trendy shirt on with grommets in it ( le dernier cri, per InStyle magazine this month, FYI) and dress slacks, all in black, of course. He talked quite a bit with his hands and used the words "fabulous" and "sexy" a LOT. He came up to us later in the show as we were wandering through the booths and he was all, "oh, I loooof eet, you look very sexy, very fab-oo-luss!" We contemplated kidnapping him and taking him home so he could just follow us around and tell us how beautiful and sexy and fab-oo-luss we looked all day. What a man!
We also got our body fat measured... it was NOT cool. A full ONE THIRD of me is FAT. From the boobs up! OMG! Talk about a serious wake up call, I need to get to the gym. It's free, I have NO excuse.
Then some guy was giving out samples of this chocolate drink. My friend was like, hey, we just found out we were fat, what are you trying to do??? I told him next show he should try to be BEFORE the body fat measuring booth. We tried the drink anyway (it was supposed to have these great natural health benefits, blah blah blah. OMG, if anyone EVER offers you something called Xocilt or something like that, RUN! That stuff is nas-tee!
We had lunch at a great Mexican restaurant downtown (El Matador, for you Phoenician peeps) and then decided we needed to show off our fabulous new do's so we headed to Scottsdale Fashion Square. We hit all the fabulous spots - Nordstrom, Louis Vuitton, Neiman Marcus, Sephora, the puppy store.... ha ha. GOTTA hit the puppy store, that's a MUST.
Then we stopped at another pet store on the way home so I could buy the kids some chow. They had puppies in those wire fences on the floor, so we played there for a bit. They were so stinking cute, but man I hate pet stores. I always feel so bad for those sweet little dogs on the wire floors with nowhere to run and play.
We went to my friend's house afterwards to book our Disneyland trip. Yup, you heard me right, Miss M is going to Disneyland! I am so freaking excited. Sure I have been there twice before. The first time, I was 2 years old. The second time I was 16, and we were there for 6 hours on a school trip. So really, this is like the FIRST time for me. We are getting a 2 day hopper pass and since my friend is a total Disneyland expert, I will be sure not to miss anything important. YAY!
Today, I slept in, and then headed to IKEA to get a few things. I am re-arranging my scrapbook room so that I can have people over to scrap with me. The way it was, I couldnt' really sit anyone but me at the table. Now, I think I can get two and maybe even three. It's a mess still right now. I will post pics when I am done.

Although to you, my comments may be considered spam, so I am basing the suggestion purely on the hopes that you enjoy my comments and don't just roll your eyes, sigh and say "Just another crap comment."
