Exciting Easter!!

I had a fantastic Easter this year. It was very exciting. I got up at 5am to go to church with my friend (a date I guess you could say) at 8am. After we went to a park with some art and museums and stuff, which they have a new exhibit with dinosaurs so we went into one museum and took a look around. We got lost on the way to lunch because he couldn't find his way out of a ghetto neighborhood (while driving my car) but eventually got there. We ate, yum, and then went down to a monument by his base (sort of) which is on the beach, well, the cliffs that meet the ocean anyway.

We spent at least 2 hours or more wandering around and taking a ton of pictures on the cliffs, he has a really nice camera. When we got back to my car I had a bunch of texts and voicemails from my mom saying there was a 6.8 earthquake in Mexicali, in Baja California. We could just about literally see Mexico from the cliffs we were on, so we were closer than any of our family, but they felt it all the way up in LA and it was strong. Weird how we didn't feel it.

We drove around a bit, I got carsick a little so we stopped to get me some crackers and to walk around. Then we went to see a movie and he counted I think 5 aftershocks we finally felt from the big earthquake. The aftershocks themselves could be categorized as mini-earthquakes. One rocked the theater good enough for me to grab his arm and cuddle up close to him to feel protected haha. Ended the night with breakfast and a pancake house.

Long

Looooooong week. I made Bloggingbrit late for work some more, I feel really really really really bad. I'm so afraid I'm going to get him fired =(

Been texting my hockey buddy/coach/friend/date? guy... going to a game with him in less than 2 weeks, he is excited, I'm excited. I doubt it's a date though because he asked me if some of his friends could come too or if I wanted it to be just me and him. I told him just me and him, he was down with either way.

My tanning is going well, though some might say I cheat a little. Looking towards a long hot week this week. Probably these next two weeks are going to be soooooo long because the only real excitement for me will be the baseball game. I hope it's not too hot, I mean it's a night game, so it will probably be decent weather... warm, but not hot... maybe as the night goes on around 9pm or so a light jacket if the wind picks up. We are playing the Mariners, haha, my neighbors favorite team... we pick on each other sooooo much about it.

Apparently we had an earthquake earlier, but no one in my family felt it, yet all my friends from San Diego to LA felt it. Weird. Andrew said he thought his dryer was attacking... and my friend Emily says "SHUT UP! it wasn't an earthqauke it was anze getting out of the shower, and he slipped." That really made me laugh so hard. I'm still giggling. In case you didn't know, Anze is my favorite hockey player, he plays for the Kings. He is like 6'4" and 220lbs. It was just so random and so hilarious. I will be laughing for weeks about that one. Wow... haha, sorry I'm still laughing. Haha.
