Beach, Baby!

Everything has been going just fine. Dad and Indigo came to visit. We spent 2 days on Venice beach and 1 day at Universal Studios. All were lovely, although I did get tan/burnt. In fact, initially I looked like an orange hooch (is that rude to say?), a look enhanced with eyeliner no less. But now I'm at the peeling, spotted forehead phase. Itchy forehead is not horrific, but neither is it particularly pleasant.

Universal Studios was fun. You could upgrade your ticket to an annual pass for only $10 and after much deliberation, I decided against it. So what I'm saying is, while fun for one day, the prospect of another day there within the year is not really worth $10. I think that clearly defines my opinion.

Also, I got to have a lovely dinner with Spiegs and Z which was fantastic, a feeling aided by lovely stories and conversation as well as guacamole and margaritas. When am I going to stop feeling like a grown-up when I order margaritas with friends? This question is completely sincere-- I really get a kick out of it every time!

And now a picture of Indigo and myself. (This picture is pre-hooch tan. I have one of post, but I need time move past the incident. Also, note that my sister (and dad!) is way tanner than me! And guys, I'm tan!)

Also, I need to mention that Indigo is super awesome. Every time I hang out with her, I have to reflect on how she keeps on getting more awesome!

Also, finally passed season 4 of the Creek. That show is full of secret genius though. Seriously. And I always forget that everyone annoys me WAY less in the college years. Plus, Audrey is... the best part of the damn show. PLLUUUUS, one of the guys from The Young and the Restless was a reoccurring character on the show! I met him! That's cool! In fact, I had an elevator incident with him that I mentioned previously. John Driscoll. Look him up.

Tomorrow I'm going to the beach with Julia, for which I am PUMPED! Plus this will be my third visit to the beach in 6 days which, as Kevin pointed out, is very Californian of me! After this one, I am really going to change my sheets ASAP. I feel like I'm sleeping on the beach.
