L dot A dot California hot

Ok, I've waited long enough. This won't be the last time you're going to hear about this, so I apologize in advance..but the countdown is officially on...we have 19 days until we are Los Angeles bound! I was excited before, but I am TOTALLY pumped now. I am excited because I always have big dreams and fun ideas, but I rarely follow through with them so, the fact that this has all materialized just amazes me! 

I want to be the type person that stays up late (I am actually getting better at this), makes spontaneous decisions and goes a lot of places...but alas..that is not me.  Those who know me, know that I do hate change, I don't necessarily like new situations and sometimes I am quite lazy, yet I am plagued with ADD (and refuse to take my medication because I would rather enjoy eating food than focusing) and am totally unable to sit still or focus on anything for more than 3 minutes. We have self diagnosed Josiah with ADD as well, and if you spent more than 2 minutes with the lovely Laura Gregg, you too would notice that she has ADHD and the greatest sense of humor of anyone I know. So here we are, 3 crazy people who collectively may be able to focus on one thing for oh, I'd say a good 10 minutes! Spring Break 2011...LA, get ready! 

Laura sent me an email with a tentative breakdown of what our week is going to look like...and here are the highlights, I had to copy and paste this straight from my email because I just love the way that she breaks this all down!

• Wednesday- Kick it ol' school, keeping it kingdom trivia night and showing you my digs.
• We should take a ride and have a party in Yari (Yari is her Toyota Yaris) day to Santa Barbara for some beer and wine tasting.  It's BEAUTIFUL and it gets you out of the concrete jungle for the day- I am thinking Thursday
• Friday- Hiking?! Yes please :). There are some beautiful hikes up in Malibu or we can go to Runyon Canyon where you are guaranteed (well maybe not completely) to see a famous person.  
• Saturday- Tourist loveliness…."Welcome to Hollywood", go look at the stars and stuff, if you are into that. Have a drink, show LA our swag and rock it at a fun restaurant to show you LA Nightlife.
• Sunday- wake up super early, eat breakfast at the best place in LA, gain 5 pounds since Josiah thinks I am fat anyways, and rush back to LAX to put you on a plane from the best coast to the east coast 

And this is why I am so excited to keep it kingdom in LA for SB 2011!!! (I'll explain keeping it kingdom in my next post, as I believe it is TOTALLY worthy of having it's own post, or at least sharing a post with Super Chrish)
