My Puma skating party! Oh Behave!!

So for the past two years I have wanted to go skating like they used to back in the day. Of course back in the day it was all the rage, times have changed a bit!! Some girls from work and a couple of people from the gym totally made my skating dream come true! Of course as with anything with me there had to be a theme. Because I am not yet a "Cougar" my friend Christina and I have been classified as "Pumas" so we had a Puma skating party! Tube socks or headbands were mandatory! We had one guy bring a fro wig which I of course took over by the end of the night. Let me tell you that much hair really throws of your balance when you are trying to skate! It was great though! Everyone knows my love of buttercream and so my friend Drea got me a cupcake cake in the shape of a skate. It was awesome! I thought we'd be the oldest people there, but there were a couple of "distinguished" men there that had some really sweet moves! Alene and I tried to do a few moves from "Blades of Glory" but it didn't quite work out. We did almost run into each other and I ended up copping a feel. Be jealous boys! We never fell though I think it was due to the many nights we'd go skating in the "Hood"! It was fun and I had a great time. I'm looking forward to the end of the month when Donelle is down and we get to concert it up with the good looking boys of Country Music! Concerts are twice as fun with Nells! Something eventful always happens which makes it good times. Here I come 31!!!

Baseball Season!!!

It's Baseball season once again so I had to go support the DBacks. Since Donelle and Randy aren't here this year I feel it my duty to represent! I get discount tickets from work so that helps too! The fact that I love popcorn and crackerjacks is a bonus, don't even get me started on my appreciation for the diamond dog! They didn't win this game but I have hopes for them! Of course one my favorite parts of being at a game is the condiment race and as usual it was "Team Mustard" for me! Mustard won and my whole section gave me high fives. I must be a little loud! It's great to have good friends to go with as well, and the girls I went with to this game were great! Go DBacks!!

It ain't nothing but a Pole thang!!!

So my awesome roommate Alene joined the "Dirty 30" Club this year and so what better way to celebrate than learning how to Pole Dance!! We had a neighborhood party for both Alene and LIz the week before and because it has already been blogged by a few people. It was a great time too and man do we have amazing friends and parties! Pole Dancing has always been a hobby, fascination, talent or whatever you want to call it of Alene's! And after our little party I can definitely call it a "kick your butt" work out! I have also been fanscinated with the art of the "Pole" and so I immediately looked into a possible pole dancing party/classes! It was a hoot! The place was called "Pole Dancing Divas!" and the chic that taught the class was amazing! She made sure and pointed out telling us at the beginning of the evening that she was not a stripper and never had been. She was just a fan of the pole like us. Man could she do some tricks! The place was in downtown Phoenix which is a shame. If it were closer to here I would sign up our whole neighborhood click for classes!! We went with some of the girls we go to the gym with and had a blast! Of course Alene was the most skilled! Already having previous pole experience we knew we were going to be getting a work out so we left the stilletos at home, however the next time, and oh yes there will be a next time! it's all about the stilletos!! There was a party before us for a 50 year old lady that her daughters booked for her. She had a snazzy gold shiny shirt that said something about turning 50 it was great! I do have a new respect for pole dancers though, man does it take some muscles and grace! Muscles I might have but the whole graceful, sexy thing not so much! As you can tell from my upside slide compared to Alene's! I hate to mention but feel that I should so proper dues are given the 90 pound teacher had to help me get my leg up the last few inches by boosting my butt up! Now if that isn't pure sexiness I don't know what is!! Nothing like having a 90 pound tooth pick help your fat butt up a pole! Rest easy pole dancing strippers out there, your profession is safe with me!! I hope Alene had a great birthday and I am very glad that she is also a fan of Pole Dancing too! Some day we will have a pole in the house!!
