The 1st Week

Where do I even begin??? lol! I guess we'll start with the airport.
January 17th....
All morning I have the hugest knot in my chest. After a lovely breakfast/lunch with the rents its finally starting to hit me when I get home. I have a hour to pack up the rest of my stuff and get to the airport! AH! Panic! Luckily my mom was there to help and Jaci-o showed up shortly and helped a ton! I think all morning I kept saying over and over "oh shit, I need to re-evaluate my life!!" So I eventually get all my stuff packed up and loaded into the car and we head to the airport. The whole ride I'm just sitting there silent... I felt like I could barely breathe!

I get there, get my ticket, check my luggage, and go upstairs to wait. All the while David is texting me "should I leave my house now?" "Are you there yet?" I start freakin out with all the texts, call him and start yelling at him! Finally I can't handle it and make my dad talk to him. Suddenly David pops up right behind me lol! The little brat was there the whole time and was just playing with me. So its my parents, Jaci-o, David, Lacey, and Lacey's parents. We all just stand around and talk til it was time to go through security. Gave everyone hugs and cried like a baby and then we were off.

Lacey and I managed to sit by each other on both flights. The 1st flight was much better than the 2nd though. The flight from Phoenix to San Diego we ended up next to some crazy old lady who can only be described as a crack head! The entire flight she continued to tell us how terrible california is, how much she hated it, and basically how terrible we are going to do out there. What a major B*&$#!! We land in SD fine, get our luggage, and walk outside to see Tina pulling up yelling "WELCOME TO CALI GIRLS!!"! Wow, Can't believe we are here!!

Since moving into the apartment there have been many adventures...

Adventure 1: Trip to Mexico!

Lacey and I attempt to go to target to get some apartment necessities! We were told to take the 5 south and we would see Target from the highway... So we hit the 5. We see downtown... pass downtown... still no target. Keep going still no target... Finally I get off the 5 and the neighborhood we end up in seriously looks like we are in mexico! We quickly get back on the 5 and keep looking for Target which continues to be no where to be found! Finally I call KT Baehr and she tells us that Target is on the 8, not the 5! Geez! So we hit the 8 and get to Target only 2 hours later!!

Adventure 2: Evil Von's!

Lacey and I attempt to go grocery shopping to get our first load of food. As soon as we arrive we need to make a stop at the Ladies room... We ask where it is and end up having to get a special token to even go! There is a crazy lock on the door which can only be described like a gumball machine. The toilet paper was completely jacked up so as lay lay is sitting there im practically on the ground trying to pull a sheet out for her! So after that mild disaster we start to finally shop. The store gets so completely packed that its practically bumper carts! 2 hours later we have everything we need and are ready to get the hell outta there. We check out and then hit the parking lot only to forget where we parked! Yikes! We hit the first row, walk all the way down it and realize no car... so we attempt to go up the next row when both of our carts suddenly stop working. We are trying to push those damn carts and they just wont budge! WTF! By now we are both freaking out and someone else in the lot tells us that if we pass the yellow line in the back of the lot the cart wheels lock up so bums can't steel the carts! Geez! I leave Lacey with the carts, go find the car, and pull up and we unload the groceries and go home. Another 3 hour trip!

So despite the few disasters so far its been pretty sweet! We took a day trip to Balboa Park with Tina and her sister. It was so beautiful! A bright sunny day! We all wore sundresses and shorts and tank tops.

We also tried some fun new foods! Lacey and I went to a Japanese Restaurant and tried California Rolls! They were actually really yummy!!

And then we end this 1st week with Friday Night! Drank a few glasses of wine at the apartment and then headed to Thrusters for our 1st night out together! It started off a little slow but ended up being a great night with crazy dancing, fun boys, a few creepers, and ended with a quick stop to Pita Pit!! :)
