So today was our big adventure to the L.A. County Coroner's Gift Shop. Bones of course got off work late so our adventure began right around 1ish. We got to my sister in law's and we packed up the mom-mobile and headed for LA. We get to the Coroner's and we went into their shop "Skeletons in the Closet" and we were all I think a little let down... it had the potential to be so much cooler than it was. That didn't stop us from shopping though. Bones and I secured two dead body outline beach towels, pens, notepads shaped like dead body outlines, and I got a spiffy lanyard to go on my keys with my dead crab (Yes Ash, Sebastian is still coming to live with us). While we were at the Coroner's we asked if there were any close by theaters so we could go see Harry Potter. One of the guys told us that we we're pretty close to City Walk (Universal's version of Downtown Disney). We thought that sounded swell so we hopped back in the mom-mobile and headed up to Hollywood. We got to the theater with twenty minutes to spare, ate some pizza, and went to watch Harry. Bonye and I thoroughly enjoyed it... Well for the most part. We made a few HARMLESS comments and my sister-in-law pinched me... just me. Couldn't reach Bonye I guess. After the show we walk outside and there was some guy on stage chatting. So Bonye and I... avid celebrity hunters that we are... ignored him and went to the Sketcher store... All of a sudden my sister-in-law starts dancing around and shouting something about Richard somebody or another. We pretty much ignored her... than she started raving about winning concert tickets and needing a picture. So I snagged the camera and followed her over. I took a super snazzy pic of her with Richard Blade (don't feel bad kids, I had no f-ing clue who this guy was either... click HERE for details...) Suffice to say he was in "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" he was the DTV host. So after the pics he starts calling people up on stage to win prizes. I volunteered because after all... Why the Hell not is my life motto. Marci and I were on stage and she got the first question, and couldn't answer it... her son Sam could though. So he won her tickets to a concert tomorrow night. I don't remember the band name though. So a couple more people went then it was my turn. Well the first thing he did was ask me if I wanted an 80's song or something modern. So I did what any self respecting girl would do... I asked him if he had any Show tunes! He turned a little red... started stammering about how he didn't have any show tunes... he was married! He said he'd give me an easy song (he lied) and it was Prince's Red Corvette... I knew it was Prince... no idea of the song name though. I did win a CD though. Yeah me! So afterwards we were walking down the City Walk and my nephew Aaron says to me... Auntie how come you didn't win? And I'm like... Aaron. I suck. All you need to know. Bonye turns to him and says... Aaron you aunt managed to threaten Richard Blades masculinity in under 60 seconds, which I think is a new record for her, it's a much better skill than being able to answer some stupid question about the 80's. As I see it I wouldn't have known who any of the bands were anyway... after all... If it's not show tunes I don't listen to it! A side note... To all my friends out there... DO NOT RENT KILLER DRAG QUEENS ON DOPE. It sounds fun. But it's bad. Really Really Really bad. :)
P.S. - Friday the 13th was today... I managed to snap the chain on the toliet that flushes it, make the brand new tv wig out, and get the wrong order from the cafe press... I rock.
