dallas day 2

January 8th, 2010

I’ve been looking forward to going to the Dallas World Aquarium for months! Right when we stepped foot inside, I felt like I was in some sort of NatGeo/Planet Earth show because they had to keep parts of the building humid for monkeys/birds and parts cold for sea creatures/bats/penguins.  Allll the animals and creatures were soooo cute especially the big-eyed monkeys. What’s cool is they didn’t keep a lot of the animals caged so there were monkeys jumping from tree to tree right above us and exotic birds flying wall to wall.  Definitely worth checking out when visiting Dallas!

tim tricked the birds by wearing my bracelets. they mistaken them for their normal diet, blueberries

i like this cause for some reason it reminds me of snot and mucus…or the tree man..eek!

sickass hammerheads swimming above us!!!

manateeeeeeeeeee–look at all its cute whiskers!!!

food from abacus and lumi.

lumi, a vietnamese, brazilian fusion restaurant has some delicious spicy nachos…this place is a must! abacus is one of the best restaurants in all of dallas. our server claims wade phillips and the cowboys are regulars here. good thing i didn’t see them there otherwise i’d be in jail. tim got venison. yeah, freaking VENISON. wth!! who does that!?

O HAI

dallas day 1

January 6th, 2010

horrible freeway signs, tollroads, slim thug, Y’ALLs, steakhouses, 20 degree weather, which wich’s, hot white girls, yeehaws, the cowboys baby, sweaty sheets, blue and silver, jerry jones, stupid liquor laws.  These are just some of the many memories I had in Dallas, TX.  Tim so thoughtfully bought me Cowboys Vs Eagles tickets for my birthday last year and we’ve been anticipating this trip since.  Though off to a rocky start, the trip turned out to be a success along with the cowboys’ blow out win against the shmeagles. 24-0 baby, beat that!

fran, tiff and I went down to sd for the weekend for some business. memories of the good old college days resurfaced but we also saw so many new things. has it been that long already?  first of all..roberto’s is now called RIGOBERTOs….wth!? second, UCSD decided to add a bunch of new places to eat on campus after we left and third, there’s a bombay sandwich spot in pb called which wich!!!!! probably one of the best sandwiches i’ve ever had in my life. They’re similar to LA’s burger spot The Counter where you check off a list of meats/veggies/sauces you want on your sammy.

As Fran was holding her meeting at UCSD, Tiff and I wandered off to the infamous graffiti hall.  The old art I saw years ago has been sprayed over with new tagging and all we could smell was acetone and piss.  At least we got to use the new 580exii’s!!
