Random Thoughts… .001
Carpet that has just been cleaned takes about 10 hours to completely dry, but it’s worth it. Next time though, have a plan… go somewhere right after they do it or go to sleep! It sucks to be awake, not able to find your car keys, be wide awake, and be stuck at home w/ wet carpet.
Schools sucks. I need to try harder. Two C’s this quarter. Mother-effer.
Game nights are so fun! But… I’m gonna try to not be so competitive… even though there are people that cheat.
Nick Cannon is falling off. Good thing he broke it up with that slut Kim Kuunta. She’ll probably go back to Ray-J and make another weak ass porno, which I saw by the way — no pee pee scene like R. Kell’s which means it was pretty much boring. I’m sure you can find a copy on the net. But, back to Nick, the same two Wild ‘n’ Out episodes have been showing on MTV the past three days and his hair looks terrible. Let’s hope his new show is good (April 5).
Did lots of cooking yesterday… well kinda. I made cupcakes! Yum. Startup for all the supplies isn’t too bad, about $15, but note that I did buy the cheapest ones at Wal-mart. I frosted and sprinkled them too! =)
Oh yes, I also tried to make buffalo chicken wings. Here’s the recipe (broil it for 5 minutes after instead of 1, this makes a whole lot crispier!). The weird thing was that I already had all the ingredients, except the wings. It was destined to be. When finished, they were a lil hot for my taste, but still good… Prentyce loved them and was mad I only made 20. I used Tyson chicken (the best) so it was really meaty. I’ll probably make them again next week.
Did you know that sex offenders take Depo-provera (a type of birth control given via a shot every 3 months or so) to lessen their sexual urges? Proof. I learned that on Law & Order last night. Oh baby, I love that show.
Cranium Whoonu for $4.50… what?!
Usually $15 + shipping… Cranium Whoonu is on sale for $4.50 + shipping (free for me, I’m a Prime Member) in Amazon’s Spring Clearance sale. Yay, another Cranium game. Yippy!
Cleaning sucks, but my cousin is coming!
So, cleaning sucks. But, I had the people clean my carpet this morning (so fresh & actually so clean now) so I had to get everything fixed up. Plus, my bestest cousin in the world KATHE! is coming over from California on Thursday — that’s tomorrow! And… for game night at my crib.
Donating some clothes. It makes me sad. I really should donate more, but.. I can’t let go. I hate when you gain weight and then you look at your cltohes and think Hmmmm, maybe I can fit this when I lose some weight… Then it just sits in your freaking closet forever. And you know damn well when you do lose weight, you are gonna wanna buy new clothes.
Prentyce helped me even though he had to go to school today. Good boy =). He’s so great. He didn’t do more than me, but that’s okay. LOL =D He’s at school now, where as I am on Spring Break.
Maynnn… and I can’t even find my effin’ keys… and I can’t look around because I can’t put isht on the floor because it’s wet… which means I CAN’T GO ANYWHERE! Booo.
My Cranium addiction has been satisfied
Ever since I played Cranium at Joseph & Erika’s house (on our vacation to Utah), I have wanted to get a copy for myself…. But instead, I got the TURBO EDITION! Yayers! It is usually $35, but I got on eBay for about $25,… isn’t that great? Brand new and sealed.
Unlike the regular edition, there are Turbo Cards and no dice — the light up 4-pointed star does it all for you. You sometimes even get to choose what color activity you want to do! Batteries not included.
Look! They even updated the moving pieces =) Much better than those block people. I haven’t played it in full yet, but hopefully I can get a game night crackin’ and it’ll be on!
I also got Pop 5, Cranium with a twist and with only pop culture questions and the performer gets to choose what activity they want to do— cameo, sculptorades, cloodle, letter line-up, or humdinger. This game is best for people that are afraid of looking entirely stupid in front of other people since there are not actual facts in it, just pop culture information from the past 20-30 years. You can play in big groups too. I purchased this at Amazon for $28 (free standard shipping over $25). Everyone loves this game!
Lastly, I got the two booster packs that were available. I got Booster Box 1 from Target (online) and Booster Box 2 from an Amazon Marketplace Seller. The first box comes with 800 new cards. The second box comes with 800 more new cards and 4 jars of clay (which I heard dry up very quickly). They won’t cost you more than $20 each.

Six Flags is closing…
… Or so we (people at work) have heard so you know we had to go this year! This work trip was pretty fun. Not everyone went because not everyone was invited (thank God). But, sadly, some people didn’t even stay the entire time! Nonetheless, we had fun. Group tickets for 10+ people were only $22.50 and we got Flash Passes (speeds you up to the front of the line) for $20 (four passes only).
We all drove there, me and Prentyce in his car following Cedric, Bridget, and Carol. We didn’t really make any stops except to see the other group at Barstow. We went straight to our rooms at the Santa Clarita Motel ($71/night—I got a $3 discount because of my AAA membership). They were pretty nice. Our rooms were on the first floor, easy access! Small, but cozy place. We got the handicapped room… haha. But it’s okay, we got a really big bathroom. We all shared rooms because the place ran out of rooms (could you believe it? — I think it is because the people that own the place give the rooms to their family members, freaking Habib).
We ate at Popeye’s (the best chicken joint ever). Went to the mall. We played board games later that night and everyone got kind of hostile… even though they didn’t want to admit it. Mark’s brother Raul is good at Cranium… I’m so jealous! Teehee =) We tried playing Cranium Turbo Edition, but those mofo’s were complaining it was too hard. Can you believe that? Whatever. We also played Scattergories, Jenga, and Taboo.
Note:
- Parking costs $15 per car! Carpool to the park.
- The best ride was X
- Tatsu, their newest ride, wasn’t that great, but still worth riding
- Decent meal for one person, $10
- Get a souvenir cup, it’s worth it, plus $1 refills all day
- It’s not worth spending $5 a shot for a stupid stuffed animal
- Play the guess your age/weight game. They don’t check your license and their weighing scale is off by 20 pounds plus
- Caramel apples are so good! 2/$5
- They sell funnel cakes, but the lines are so long! Get in there early
- You can’t bring any food into the park, unless you have an infant or young child
- Metal detectors — don’t bring any guns/knives/etc. you delinquents!
- Lockers are $0.50-$1.00; but there are places on the ground where you can put your stuff before you get on the ride
- Waiting times for the lines were between 1-2 hours — get a Flash Pass
- Eat before you get into the park, food is expensive
- A colored caricature will run you $36/couple
-
Any-who, we had shits of fun and are planning a trip for later in the year again. Hopefully it won’t be closed?!
