Look out Angelina.. I've got an avocado and I'm not afraid to use it...
Grandma took me to dinner Saturday night before we headed to the casino for a girls night of gambling and mischief.

Mmmmmmm.... Bar food. Normally something I handle quite well, in fact the majority of the bars in Vegas these days serve what you could consider as gourmet bar food. Even the taquitos I ordered were no ordinary rolled tacos. The meat inside wasn't just cooked animal flesh, there were spices and cheeses and to top it off.. Homemade Salsa and Guacamole!! And oh do I love that. Now I've known for years that Tomatos, and melon and cucumbers.. any type of fruit/vegatable in that realm of consistency and acidity makes my throat and mouth get all raw and itchy and makes it difficult for me to swallow. Only raw flesh of these items do it though. I can eat tomato sauce, or tomato based soups, fried zucchini.. and.. salsa.. but just the juice part.. the flavor. So I'm dipping my delicious taquitos into the sour cream first, with a small dab of homemade guac, finished with a salsa dip for kick.

About 3 taquitos into this routine I learned something new about myself. I will never need collagen injections for my lips. Avacados apparently have the ability to make my lips swell enough to rival Angelina Jolie. DSL... oh yeah baby. I dont need to spend big $$ on lip plumping gloss any longer... Just $.79 at the grocery store and I'm puckered all night!

Hmmm... Well this is strangely familiar
Well yes.. I gave myspace for Lent. I am myspace free until Easter. But even Jesus understands that sometimes I have to write. So why not high-tail it back to the beginning.. where it ALL started. Here! So for the next 40 days I'll be blogging again.. Crazy! Who'da thunk it.

Okay.. the real reason I'm here is because I had to share this..

One of the ladies I work with has this lunch box type case on her desk. Its wood and hand painted.. and Pin Up! And my soulmate totally needs ones! So I track down the owner and ask her about it.. She tells me where it came from and how much it was.. that's not the funny part.

Me: Oh that is awesome because see I have something simliar to that at home but mine has a vintage shoe on it and my Best Friend fell in love with it. And I had to tell my best friend that No.. She can't have my box. I love my best friend with all my heart, and I know she really wanted my box but it was a birthday present. So I figured if I got her a box of her own....

Co-worker: (interrupting)... Jenn... do you realize what you just said and how it sounded?

Me: Yes.. that's why I kept going hoping my rambling would distract you enough to make you forget immediately. Didn't work did it?
