Elle, you are going to LOVE Puerto Rico! Congrats!!!!

Yes, I''m so geeked!

I am quite concerned about the humidity though. LOL. My hair is going to be a hot mess the entire time we''re in PR!

Headbands during the day - or keep it in a bun (that''s what I do). At night it''s humid but comfortable because of the soft breezes (so nice

) so you can straighten no problem.

I''m going to PR in Feb and I CANNOT WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to make a list of things you MUST eat when you go there.

Yes, headbands are my best friend.

Seriously B, if you know of stuff to eat, PLEASE tell us. We want a more "off the beaten path" experience. We don''t want to eat at the Hard Rock Cafe, if you catch my drift.

Neither of us have ever been to PR.

So you have MV in a week, and PR next Feb??? That is AWESOME!

Hey ladies! Just got back from a weekend at my friend''s cabin on Lake Chelan. I am so tired and sore from wakeboarding and innertubing, but it was SO much fun.

Lake Chelan?! Jealous!!

morning ladies!

*yawn* i woke up at 2 am (again) and i still haven''t fallen back asleep.

good luck with your paper Freke!

Jessie, stay positive girl. i hope C is doing well and that your doggie is doing better too!

thanks Squirrly, i''m feeling a lot better! i still have a bit of a cough going on but it''s definitely getting better. hopefully i''ll be totally recovered by this weekend since i gotta be fabulous and celebrate my b-day you know?

about the twitching thing, is it like a muscle spasm? every once in a while i get them in my eyelid! it''s the oddest thing...it makes me look crazy.

yay for princesss getting a mullet makeover!

oooo elle! i''m so jealous! Puerto Rico sounds fantastic and those two places are beautiful. you are seriously going to have an awesome time! as far taming the hair, i agree with Bia on keeping it in a bun. it''s chic!

 

[sunnyd]

Ooh elle, how fun!!

Morning alls! It was bleeping 77 at 7AM. Ugh soooo hot!!

hot as balls!

AND..AANNNDD they started construction at my apartment at 7 am. WHO DOES THAT?!?!

sunny - we are taking my dog to my parents house b/c they have A/C. all my pretty flowers i got on saturday are all dying because its too hot here!

Jessie - i am sending you an C loads of dust for august. i hope that everything is okay.

 

[Lilac]

Good morning!

Jessie - I''m sorry to hear about C. It''s good though that they caught it early and it''s on his arm. Hopefully they will remove and treat it as quickly as possible! Also sorry to hear about your doggie

Elle - that honeymoon sounds amazing!

I think I might have a urinary tract infection. I''m deciding whether or not to wait it out and see if it gets worse and go to the doctor tomorrow or just try to get an appointment today. I had one about 2 months ago and it was MUCH worse than this (but this was how it started I think) so it''s possible this isn''t actually a UTI or it''s possible it''s the start of it. Can''t decide what to do...

People who don''t wanna work when it gets to 95 at 5, that''s who! LOL that sucks though.

I thought I was gonna die last night it was so steamy. And to top it off, I burned my hand on the oven and have a lovely blister. Mmmhmm, Friday, where are you?

Maybe try some 100% pure cranberry juice? not the juice cocktail, but 100% juice. Sometimes that will ward one off for me if I start it early enough. Or cranberry pills.

If it doesn''t go away, I''d go to the DR tomorrow... you don''t want it to become a kidney infection!

EXTREAMLY hot.

seriously. no one has A/C becuase we don''t need it (normally) and now all the stores are sold out of fans. NICE.

do you think i can complain to my apt complex about the construction going on? it is harrassing me. the noise, at least.

 

[CNOS128]

yum, coke! in the glass bottle, no less!!

haha. the PNW. except for this week. again i repeat. hot. as. balls.

hmm. chicken pasta or cereal for breakfast?

 

[vip0802]

sorry to hear that Lilac! i agree with BigT and elle - definitely drink lots of water and the pure cranberry juice. that stuff is always hard to drink, so i dilute it with some water and add a little honey. it makes it go down easier and you''ll drink more of it that way. or stick with water and get cranberry pills like sunnyd suggested. i''d check with the doctor if it doesn''t go away

Chicken pasta, of course. Need some protein!!


I love the PNW. But I''m afraid if I lived there my hair would permanently turn into one big frizzball.
