Wuzzy Woes

Woahhh there, familia. You thought you had lost me for good, eh? N E V E R . *cue evil laugh* But really. I have been all over California for the past 2 weeks so my apologies for not writing sooner. I know the question on everyone's mind; "What grand, romantic, over-the-top gesture did Prince Eric whip up for Valentine's Day?!?!?!" That would be leaving me by myself at my apartment to eat a free cupcake from my leasing office, pink pancakes for dinner, an episode of American Idol and going to bed at 8pm. In his defense, we were leaving for the Happiest Place on Earth the next day, so there was that. We found it ironic that the two cheesiest and pro-Valentines day advocates didn't even see each other on the Day of lurrrve. But I mean...Disneyland!!!

We had our fair share of adventures on the way, but since they didn't take place in Cowtown I am not permitted to share them on this blog. Sorry. Okayfine. We experienced some car troubles that I have since named the "Wuzzy Woes". Poor fellah got a little frog in his throat (otherwise known as metal shavings in his compressor). I wasn't about to go act like an adult and talk to a car mechanic, so I handed the reigns over to Eric on that one. Wuzzy is all bettah now, and we made it home safe and sound! Plus, bonus point; we even got away with not worrying Nani, which is always a great thing! ;)

We provided third-wheel entertainment to Eric's twin brother, who we also drove to LA. It was all fun and games until someone gave him control of the music; crooning country for 5 hours, people. Wasn't expecting that when I have become so accustomed to Eric's Sinatra playlists. They aren't identical twins, so what can ya do. Disneyland itself was as magical as ever! I had warned Eric that Disneyland turns me into a 5-year-old girl...I was giddy to say the least.  I was pleased to find that Eric shared my distain for Its a Small World and my love for cotton candy. We frolicked to our heart's desire and left with one too many cliche Disneyland pictures.

This past weekend I took a gander back to the Bay. Its no Disneyland, but it sure is up there ;) I stopped in Berkeley on my way; it was my first time and I had only heard about how "butt ugly" the campus was. As much as it kills me to admit it, Berkley is beautiful!! My friend lives in a sorority house and my horrific visions of what Greek houses looked like were completely dispelled. They had granite counter tops in the bathroom....I gotta get me in one of those. Back in the SC I got my first good night's sleep in oh, I don't know, all year, and I was reunited with my love affair: Costco free samples. I greatly enjoyed cable and free laundry and showers with good water pressure.  But Monday afternoon classes beckoned, so it was back to Cowtown for me. Today my writing class spent 45 minutes coming up with a formal definition for the term "fast food". Ah, its good to be back.

In Tour Guide news, I successfully led an tour in it's entirety this afternoon! Alright, I was practicing with a friend. But I still did it and I am SO ready to be done memorizing that gosh darn script! I edited it and added my own jokes, which personally I think are pretty fan-freaking-tastic. But I'll let the parents be the judge of that.

Well folks, in the spirit of honesty, I was hoping for something a little more thrilling to occur before posting this one. But alas, the annoying older sister has nagged me once again for a new entry, so this will have to do. 3 weeks until finals! GET PUMPED!
