Woah... it was a semi-nightmareish day at work. Let me explain...

Apparently, on Tuesday night, one of the water pipes exploded, hence flooding the entirely office and warehouse. So today, it was a LOT of cleaning up and reorganizing... not to mention prepareing for a wedding on Saturday. The warehouse is already somewhat small... and with all the extra stuff from the office drying off in there... rolling the already pained 50 yards of fabric in an even more cramped space wasn't pretty. *shudder* I guess that was the worse of it though. Once we arranged it so that there was a bit more room, it wasn't so bad. The LOUD air blowers were like heavy duty LOUD airconditiong and hey... I can spool ribbon like no tomorrow. ;)

Actually, when I first got to work, there were 2 men waiting outside the office. Being the naive romantic that I am, I seriously thought they were a gay couple who wanted twinkle lights and drapery for their ceremony. But in reality, they were there to clean up the water mess. My bad.

And I guess me sleeping at 4am wasn't the brightest of ideas since a certain so and so kept me up till the break of dawn chit chatting away. ;P

Anyhoo... I developed a new crush. ;) Move over Conan... I just recently found Wil Wheaton's website and he's so gosh darn cute, quirky,*sigh* and pretty damn hilarious. Funny thing, since I don't watch STAR TREK... I don't know what he's talking about most of the time... but I think I do... sorta. But his writing is so charming and dorky and *sigh* he's adorable.

:) im having this happy high... please please don't ruin it...

I just got home from having dinner with Jr for his birthday... :) I love my cousins... (gosh.. I'm just about loving EVERYONE huh... ;) YAY!) We went over to Buca and seriously got stuffed. JR was breathing hard as usual after a big meal... (back in the days of family meals, Jr and Tita Lagring would have these eat-offs to see how many times they can go visit a buffet. Sure Tita Lagring can easily out eat JR... but JR would always try to make at least 7 visits... ahhhh.. memories..) It was funny cause he brought his new girlfriend of the month... and I'm sorry.. she was a ditz. She got in a fight with Jen because she thought veal was deer and how she didn't want to eat Bambi... hahahaha... it was very interesting.

Afterwards, went over to Tito Nanding's place for coffee and to watch BRIDGET JONES DIARY... ;) Angel was there and she had this brain-teaser toy thingie... like it was wood and string and you have to get the hoop out of the whole thing (it looks like a giant cat toy). Apparently she got it as a challange from a friend and so to proove how smart she is.. she gave it to us so that we can figure it out and she can take the credit. (she IS the smartest girl in the family... ;)) Anyways, first it went to Carlene who threated to kill Angel if it really was a cat toy... she gave up after 10 minutes... then it went to John.... he had it for like 30 minutes but no luck... then it went to Jen... still... nothing. Then it got to me... and what do you know.. :) I GOT IT!! :D Ok.. I'm not saying I'm a genius or anything... but yeah. (ooooooO.. she's getting cocky!) So I had to teach Angel how to do it again and how to put it all together so that she can wow her friends in the morning... Oh my gosh.. I just love them so much. :) Angel and Jennifer can always make me laugh. Actually Angel and Carlene are the same... the're both the younger sisters and they're both pretty bossy to the older sisters and Jen and myself are the older sisters who take it. Its amazing how creative those 2 girls are... I think there really is some sort of creative gene in the Concepcion DNA cause its just really amazing how we are all this way.

Anyways, I'm just happy that I had this great night with my cousins. :) And its not going to end.. its going to be the WEEK of COUSIN LOVE... :) They're gonna come over on Saturday... and Thursday is Jen's graduation.. so more family! YAY FAMILY! :)

Theres bunch of kids outside racing on their bikes. There's one kid on his bike, but its not like a normal bike. Its one of those tiny bikes. like the ones clowns use. He's peddling and peddling but isn't going very fast and in fact, he's in last place. But he's beaming and yelling like he's the champion.

That totally made me smile just now.

:/ I had a icky night... but my friends made it better for me. I really don't like to vent my problems much... but there a few who do get the whole "extent" of my frustrations... so thank you very much for listening. And thanks to people who just made my night for the silly chitchats... :) and I just LOVE my dear sister Carlene who had one line to get me out of my funk.

carlene is nice: YOURE MESSING WITH THE WRONG CONCEPCION!

I love her sooo much. Actually I'm loving all my friends... I don't know what I would do without them. Probably go into this sad sad sad funk where I would just read sad romance novels and eat lots of ice cream....

KitCheNsync222: do you feel any better?
spaznik: bleeeh... but not AS crappy as before.
KitCheNsync222: YAY!
KitCheNsync222: did you find ice cream? :-)
spaznik: :-) yes.. there was a little bit of rocky road left.
KitCheNsync222: ohhh, yummy...marshmallows, almonds, and chocolate, oh my!
KitCheNsync222: :-)
spaznik: yeeeep... its like the perfect ice cream.
KitCheNsync222: *drool*
KitCheNsync222: i think i'm gonna get ice cream tomorrow.
KitCheNsync222: ahhaahha.
spaznik: hahahahaha... ice cream makes everyone happy...
spaznik: id marry ice cream if it were a real person...
spaznik: but thats just too weird.

Anyways, Melissa is back... :) YAAAAY!! I'll put the Madonna CD in the car and let's go crusing! *GOOD TIMES*
*on another girl from SL getting married...*
Babae112: what?!
Babae112: OMG
Babae112: i feel so fucking behind!
spaznik: hahah.. yeah... NO SHIT
Babae112: shit man
Babae112: imma have to get a mail order husband!
spaznik: maybe we can find a 2 for 1 deal..
Babae112: yeah no shit
Babae112: or some hot twins
Babae112: ooohhhh
spaznik: where is this? www.mailorderhusbandsforthedesperatesinglechick.com?
Babae112: oh shit
Babae112: u didn't
spaznik: hahahah. I DID.
Babae112: ew
Babae112: it didn't display
spaznik: it was a JOKE dork

So although my night started crappy.. It got way better. :) Yep...

*note* woah... notice how both quotes had some sort of reference to marriage?? EEEK. I'm not even going to remark on that cause 1) it may look as if I'm desperate 2) it may make me feel desperate 3) I'm ALL woman.. I don't need a MAN... but it would be nice... ewwwww... lets stop right there.

Wow... was that a good game or what?? I was on the verge of puking during overtime because I was so stressed out... Carlene and I were yelling at the top of our lungs and waving our arms and legs for just about everything... but hey at least the Lakers won. :) YAY!! I have to admit though that the Kings gave them a good fight. Poor Bibby... Carlene kept on screaming "WHAT THE FUCK!! There's no "I" in TEAM!!" for him. Also in the end... when NBC was interviewing Bibby... asking him how he felt now that he had just lost, etc... and he's answering.. and then here comes Kobe into the interview. Carlene then screamed for Bibby "First you STOLE my series... now you STEAL my INTERVIEW?!?!:" Crazy... It was funny cause it was the 3 of us watching it... but Mom has this habit of thinking that the Lakers are going to lose all the time. She's a total fan... but she's always convinced that they are going to loose. When I started watching the game during the second quarter... I asked her what the score was. She simply said that the Laker's were losing. When I asked by how much... she said "By One Point." I don't think she understands the concept of "catching up." Anyways, so she went upstairs at halftime cause she "couldn't take it anymore" but every so often up until the end of the game... Carlene and I would hear her scream obscentites and yell every so often. It was like there was a high pitched ghost in the house who was rooting for the Lakers. ;)

Afterwards, Carlene and I went over to TGIF's to go celebrate Chelle's graduation with Tracy, Dielle, Jill, and Joe G at the good ole HAPPY HOUR! ;) *good times* hahahahahha... I think I've said it before.. but i'll just say it again... but Carlene is pretty much the only one who can properly embarass me. Usually, if people start picking on me *in that joking sense* my smart-ass instinct comes out and I can easily turn tables or still walk away without feeling too silly... but Carlene can just get to me. I guess in the same way, I can do it too with her... its one of the *perks* of being sisters. I won't say what she did cause its just silly and probably a lot of you have already heard it already... but I think that if i were to put it down somewhere... she would use it as more ammunition. hahahahahahah... oh my. Anyways, back to TGIF... it was fun... ;)

Psst.. Joe's a psycho... and I should mention that Carlene loves to make fun of him as well.. ;)

Just got home from Joe's PCN.. :) It was AWESOME!! :) Joe had like a total of 5 lines that he delivered PERFECTLY! All the girlies were drooling over his lines... ;) He also was very good at his dance... HOT DAMN! OoOOo.. and DEVOTION was there!!! :) hahahaha.. actually, they were pretty kick ass... nice acoustic thing going on... their last song was this harsh bitter "bitch.. you broke my heart" kind of song... but it was still nice. :) Afterwards, Carrie and I were hanging outside the stage door just so that we can try to get a picture with them... but we were too shy to go up to them. At least we got to breathe the same air as them. *sigh* Actually, it was pretty hilarious cause we were sitting next to a bunch of crazy students and parents who had smart ass comments for just about everything... it was GREAT! When there was a fight scene... this one guy kept on screaming "USE THE FORCE" and now I know that everyone in the audience was a huge Laker fan because "GO LAKERS" was yelled at different times during the play as well. There was also this one Filipino empowerment scene where everyon in the audience was yelling MABUHAY!! :) Pretty dope.

Later on, went to BJs to get some dinner... and the whole PCN cast was there also. (AND DEVOTION!! OooOOOO.. we were eating in the same building as DEVOTION!!) Joe was flying around from table to table mingling and being his sociable self... where Carrie and I sat and ate... and pondered about relationships and men. *as always* ;) The main question was "if boys say that they join CKI for the girls... and if like all girls are like us and are wanting a relationship of some sort... why aren't there more hookups?" Joe said that its because we don't interclub as much anymore... I can see that as being true. Actually, Joe gave us TERRIFFIC advice on guys... and we shall see if it will work when we all go to Florida in August. HAHAHAHAAH. OoooO.. YEAH. ;)

*Joe is trying to wipe off his stage makeup at the restaurant.. he looks like hes crying.."
Waitress: Oh MY GOSH!! Are you ok??
Joe; Yeah.. I'm fine... I'm just taking off my make up.
*silence*
Joe: Noooo.. its not what you think
*silence*
Joe: I was in this show... they put it on me...
Waitress: Oh.. ok...
Nicole: He's a drag queen. He just finished his performance.
Waitress: OHHHHHHHH.
Joe: NOOOOOOOO!!

:) I'm all red and sunburnt from the sun.. but oh wells. :)

Today, pretty much spent the day down in Long Beach... because 1) Emily was graduating (walking but really graduating is graduating) and 2) it was Laura's birthday. So I drove down there early so that I can make some confetti at Lauras. :) We went ABSOLUTELY crazy with the confetti... we FILLED a shopping paperbag with it. We went over to CSULB and found Emily and mad leied her... ;) Later on as she was walking with all the other graduates... we were going CRAZY throwing confetti into the air. The thing is that the wind was going against us.. and while we lightly sprinkled the graduates... we were covered with all that damn confetti. Confetti on my clothes... confetti in my hair... confetti in my BRA... confetti in my shoe.. confetti sticking on my skin... it wasn't very pleasant. hahaha.. but it was damn fun. We actually emptied our bag.. and when the graduates were in their seats... we did the ghetto thing and picked it up again... HEY! Its RECYCLING!!

The ceremony was nice... LONG.. but nice. It was hot and sunny... and not a lot of shade. :/ We didn't see Steven Speilburg... he graduated at 9am... we were there at 1. Afterwards they marched out again.. (MORE CONFETTI!) and we met up with Emily's family. We finally met her boyfriend, Larry, who's adorable. ;) Took lots and lots of pictures... and then went to the reception for some food.

Well I mentioned that it was Laura's birthday... so Vivian, Melody, and I took her out to dinner over at this Mexican restaurant in front ot Live Bait... it was so hilarious... we were planning that for whoever would graduate next... instead of giving candy or flower leis... we'd make FOOD leis. You know... put in some soda... maybe a can of corn beef... spam... a lunchable... etc... since the ceremonies are so long and the graduate would get hungry eventually. That idea actually branched into more inventive ideas that involved George Formen grills, a tent, and opening a club called "CLUB WILDERNESS:".. but its just something you should have been there to get. ;)

Later on.. it was time. We needed to watch the Laker game... so we drove over to Yankee Doodle and watched it there... WOW. KICK ASS GAME. The whole place was going crazy... YEEP. :P LAKERS BABEEEEE!!

Went back to Laura's place where her roomies already had a party going.. and chilled there where Emily and Larry met us up. HAHAHA... it wasn't your usual girl interrogating... it was more of us girls asking him if he had any friends.

Laura: Soooo... Larry you got any friends I can meet?
Nicole: Yeah... anyone who would be interested in a frisky gemini?
Larry: Hmmmm... actually I do... but they're like married already.
Vivian: Do you have any nerdy friends? I like nerdy guys?
Larry: Well... I have single friends... but...
Vivian: ... there's a reason why they are single?
Larry: Yeah. I was looking for a nice way to say it.
Vivian: that was a nice way.. I said it with a smile.

Laura: Soooooo.. Larry how about these friends of yours?
Nicole: Why don't you have a mixer or something... you invite your single friends and we'll come over...
Laura: HAHA. Yeah right... like we're going to sit down in a circle with name tags and Larry is going to explain to us the first ice breaker.

Gosh... we're sounding pretty desperate arent we? HAHAH.. nah.. its more like jealous cause Emily is glowing and we just want a bit of that glow on our own faces. (and it doesn't mean you're sunburnt.) But we're happy for her.. :)

Anyways... I still have confetti in my clothes and its itching like crazy. I'm gonna go take care of that.
