WANNA GET DOWN AND DIRTY?! MUDDY BUDDY 2008 IS BACK!


Pablo and I back in 2007 after finishing the Mud Crawl!



Pablo and I before the we got DIRTY! Start of the race!


Muddy Buddy - LOS ANGELES: November 2, 2008


2008 Muddy Buddy Ride & Run Series, a 6-7 mile event with biking, running, obstacles, and of course the infamous mud pit is back! I did this course last year with my friend Pablo. At the time I was in much better shape, but the course still totally kicked my A$$!

Race Description (from the website)
Each race features a 6-7 mile course and 5 obstacles. At the start of the race, one team member will run and one will ride the bike. At the 1st obstacle, the rider will drop the bike, complete the obstacle, and begin running. The runner will arrive, complete the obstacle, find their bike, and begin riding. Teams will continue leapfrogging each other through the entire course. At the end of the race, racers will crawl through the infamous Mud Pit crossing the finish line together!


You have to have 1 bike (mountain bike, not beach cruiser) and it's mandatory for each team member to wear a helmet (you can get one for like $20 at your local sporting store). Lots of running and tough mountain biking under extreme heat. The best part is some people dress up in crazy outfits - ! The energy is intoxicating and to finish the course you have to crawl through the mud pit on your stomach! By the end you will know why they called it MUDDY BUDDY.


Anyone interested? I need to get back in shape STAT! Lemme know!

GOLDEN GIRL ALWAYS - RIP



Estelle Getty passed away at the age of 84 this morning at 5:34 am.

This amazing and loved actress will be missed.

CUPS WITH SASS!









These cups are a wonderful addition to any kitchen.
You won't mistake your cup left in a crowd of party-goers. "Exsqueeze me, can I have my BITCH cup back BITCH." OR "Squeeze me tramp, I need my HO cup back."


keep your drinks ICE COLD!



Ok, I'm so feeling weird shit right now. I'm looking around for kitchen accessories and of course the stuff that catches my eyes are so unnecessary, but so necessary at the same time. Forget the boring cubed ice or the generic molds that everyone has. Step out and have something that's different - teeth ice! They call it FROZEN ICE, but I'll refer to it as dentures because that's what they look like.

Give this as a gift to the next friend that has a housewarming party. Trust me- they'll be laughing so hard their teeth will fall out =)

Rock Sugar Restaurant - Not Rock Solid!


By no means am I a food critic, however I def. can dish it out if a place is cool or if it just stinks!

From the owners behind popular chain Cheesecake Factory (love love - servings so big it's like a buffet), this new restaurant ROCK SUGAR opened up about a month ago conveniently located in Culver City, CA (think West LA).

A menu that encompasses Indian, Thai, Chinese and other Southeast Asian culinary traditions, I can whole-heatedly say that the food was OK, but not OMG I will gain 5 lbs happily for the extra calories. I was expecting much more. Amazing ambiance paired with stinky service, this place is ok if you are looking to have some Asian food before catching a movie. We made reservations and they had us waiting for 20-25 minute. The hostess took our $20 tip in hopes of getting seated promptly, but he had no hook up and unapologetically had us wait the entire time. Still the muther-effer took the tip. Later in the night, our waitress forgot to bring us one of our shrimp dishes out. After everyone was pretty much done eating, she brings it out. Not all things are fashionably late.

Still there was an upside - Best part of the night hands down was having the desserts. Indulging and obsessing over the carmelized banana custard cake was life changing. For that I recommend trying this restaurant and being your own judge. Good luck and hope your service is better than ours was!

Overall: Nice effort, but work out the kinks from the ground up: Service is important!

DOPE PILLOW CASES!


How awesome are these pillow cases! For those that travel you can be stylish, clean and on the go with these $28 dollar pillow cases sold at urbanoutfitters.com and put them in your suitcase so you can be fly! Or you can just buy it to add some hottness to your bedroom.
I think they are hot and compliment simple bedding and brings it to another level.
Sleep tight!


LIKE OMG! I HEART WEST ELM!



I heart West Elm (westelm.com)! So my style, but it's def. not cheap like Ikea! Prices like Ikea are so my style =)

I'm in the process of moving and desperately searching for cool affordable furniture. With my crazy friend Janet I headed to a West Elm store and she must have brought me some Vegas luck, because believe it or not I bought this TV console that retails at $399 for only $70 and the dark chocolate ottoman that retails for $499 for $115.
That's right snatches - this biotch got one hellava steal!

I love HGTV, Design a Star, Home Edition: Extreme Makeover show, etc. Always thinking to myself "I can do that!" I like to think I have "ok" style, but my problem is I like everything, even when it doesn't match or flow. I'm trying to learn to go with a theme, but just like dieting (UGH), I find myself veering off the path and doing my own thing. Not this time...I'm going to try and stick to the colors and keep it clean and simple while avoiding ey. Not to mention trying to do this with a reasonable budget has me busy window shopping online and in the stores!

Right now I'm thinking chocolate brown furniture with burnt orange (rug/decorations,etc) as an accent color. I'm so going to buy a big green plant to bring extra ogygen in. Worst case: My living room looks like a jungle! Still working out the rest, but I'm glad I have some colors in mind! Maybe I'll add some green (cool lime green??)!

Here are some websites for decorating/sprucing up your living room, bedroom or even your kitchen & bathroom that 've been going on for inspiration.
