Teen Lines and Tilt Tales

Instead of washing my hair this morning, I hit snooze over and over (more than my regular 7 times), laying in bed thinking of ways I could get out of work. Could I be sick?? No, people would just talk behind my back about how I have the 'brown bottle flu'. I hate that phrase so I couldn't have them saying that. Could my dog be sick? No, I've already used that. Did I have to be rushed to the emergency room? I decided to go a different route, now I sat there thinking of jobs I could do from home but actually still be successful.

I'm at work now.

It's Tuesday, the day after the 4th of July. It was a long weekend full of sunbathing, drinking, too much food, too much drinking, and too much researching where each checkpoint in LA was set up. It wasn't a crazy holiday like some in the past. I woke up every morning knowing where I was and who I was next to, which will make my boyfriend happy. Five blondes in a convertible headed down to San Diego on Saturday a.m. and what should be a 2 hour drive made into a 4 hour drive. Along with one of our friends being abnormally drunk from one tilt the trip was a success. We were able to dance, ride in a 'bike cart' around Downtown San Diego, lose Jenna, fall over a curb, eat Subway after hours where Stacie apparently picked up the Arabic language, "I know you're talking about me, I know what you are saying!", fight about one of our friends not having cash, fight about walking instead of cabbing, and learn that Jenna sounded slightly like a lesbian as a child and also had a teen line.

After the weekends events, I've concluded that not only should we have the day after a holiday off of work, but we should have the entire week off. Especially for our nation's holiday. The older I get, the longer I need to recover and the longer it takes me to remember the events of the weekend.

Festive 4th of July Frocks

The 4th of July is holiday is one of my favorite holidays because it combines the best things in life...Fireworks, days off, lakes/oceans, friends, family, booze and food. I also enjoy this holiday not only because it celebrates our independence but because it doesn't involve the money and time spent on holidays like Christmas, New Years, Halloween, or my friend, Madi's, birthday. I don't need to go buy a new dress or presents, I can mooch off other people's fireworks by simply sitting outside, and I'm not required to wear much make-up or clothing.

Several celebrities have sported their own Patriotic themed outfits over the years. I have included a few July 4th wardrobe options I'm thinking about sporting, who do you think rocked their Patriotic Pride the best?
(I didn't include Miley Cyrus because it seems her normal attire is a USA bikini top and cut off shorts)

Cindy Crawford can do no wrong in her Patriotic Pasties and striped bottoms



Saluting Britain
 

Burning this outfit is the closest I'd come to burning an American Flag

No funny skits, jokes, or punch lines...Tina's Tribute is Simply Glorious!

Fighting for America or a scene in one of the 30 Rocky Movies!

Typical.

I think we've got a winner. I might even have that shirt already.

Smothered in Stars and Stripes spirit!

Just a little fabric can make a big statement.


 "Peace in the...middle east.....?"

I should be looking at his medals, but his mustache is distracting me from the whole package.

Hi, I'm pretty.

The picture of Freedom and Liberty and a lot of make-up remover.

I think I have everything but the hat....too much??

I feel I would HAVE to go fight crime if I wore this and I just want to celebrate.
