Will’s dad ( New Orleans bouncer) passed away . So sorry.
Thanks to Kevin and Matthew for helping to move my remaining furniture that did not fit into my pod. I am mad at myself for acquiring so much junk.
So last night I made dinner for Jackson and Kevin. ( roasted lamb. It was delicious). Jackson said that he was worried about my interview with a school in San Diego that he is applying to. A few hours later I looked over at Kevin and said ” Isn’t my son so gorgeous.” ” Mom that’s why you are going to screw up the interview !” OK Jackson, I will keep my love for you at bay during the interview and I will try not to curse.” Shouldn’t a mother express verbally their love for their child? Plus Jackson was having a fabulous hair day, can’t I remark on that?”
Managers seminar in Vegas this year!! Holla
Month: September 2013
Twelve years ago I was living in NY watching tv and waiting for a call from Jeff, our Coyote Ugly lawyer, who had his office in the World Trade Center. It was Hours of waiting and calls back and forth from his wife but eventually we found out he was safe. Against the advice of fellow office mates, Jeff walked down 100 flights of stairs to safety right before the towers collapased. He has told me some heart wrentching stories, in fact my son did a report on his experience for school last year. But the one moment of conversation that sticks in my mind is during the call he made to me that day: ” Yeah I am safe. I was trying to walk to the bar and get some drinks but I was herded back to Grand Central.” I will never forget that. Even in tragedy, he was able to make a joke. ( even though I am sure he did want to hit the NY Coyote and get a drink). A sad day but also a triumphant day !
Hot damn today has been a good work day. We are closing in on a space in San Juan, Puerto Rico. We have a new connection at NASCAR thanks to Jeremy. Everyone seems to love the new 2014 calendars. And the bonus was that I did not fall off my bike with the clip in pedals. ” holla!
Ben ( triathlon coach) am I the most uncoordinated client that you have?” I expected the kind ” Lil you are not uncoordinated .” What I got was ” you are the second most uncoordinated client I have.” Ok at least I am not the worst.
So I hired a shaman to come over Friday and sage my new apartment . I am very excited about this ! Make sure there is no bad juju here. ( I know. A bit eccentric)
Stupid is as stupid does. Yesterday I went to the french quarter to watch the Saints game. After the game I was invited out by our national Redbull reps. My son had forgotten his bag in my car. I couldn’t leave the meeting so my son came and took my keys. At 11 pm when I was heading home I realize I have no car key or house key. Not the fucking day to have this shit happen. The movers will be here any second and I just got into my house. FUCK!
Let there be rest! Have to to take some time today. ITS FOOTBALL. Go Saints!!! New Orleans had an awesome day shift yesterday. Girls are getting better . The bars did alright yesterday but nothing to writ home about. Perhaps I will go to the NOLA bar for kegs and eggs this morning.
The mad scramble to move. Chantel and Kevin are taking some if my stuff that I could not sell. Kevin is making out with my gorgeous Horchow couch . I gave the new owners an option to buy the TVs and exercise machines . The husband wanted the exercise machines but the ” decorator vetoed that”. And they don’t believe in watching TV. Judy said ” they are young and in love. Soon enough they will need a TV so they don’t have to speak to one another .” Lol Judy is very wise.
I hate moving! We have to be out of my house( soon to be someone else’s house) by Monday. I rented a furnished 2 bedroom apartment as a layover until we move to San Diego. I just want to get rid of everything. My assistant Judy keeps telling me to stop selling things. The only things I want to keep are Jackson’s old books and toys , photos, art work, and our life size man getting electrocuted.
Judy ” liliana you want to sell your brand new sofa but keep the electric chair.”
Me: ” I love the electric chair!”
Yesterday I sorted through my clothes . The real estate agent was a bit shocked when I opened the door in a tiny leather mini skirt. It was from a million years ago . I wore it on a morning tv show whike being interviewed about the Coyote Ugly movie. Man it was tight but I was finally able to zipper it. ” Judy keeping the leather mini skirt.”
Rashed Evans , the MMA fighter, was in the Key West bar last night. Very cool. Kristina is hanging up her boots in Key West. Going to miss her. She traveled the world with us. She is definitely a go getter. I have no doubt that she will excel in anything she tries. Go get em, Kristina!!! Crystal in San Antonio had her last night in SA. I would put Crystal up there as possibly the funniest girl that has ever worked for us. I could sit there and laugh for hours at things she has said on the mic. We currently have a girl in New Orleans, Mandy, who is a natural at the mic. I will have to sit in on one of her shifts and listen. She worked for us till she was 8 1/2 months pregnant and started back up 2 weeks later with a flat stomach and huge boobs. Win/win.
” We just sent someone to Milwaukee to teach the new dances. How the fuck do they only know 1 dance in its entirety? ” Well Chantel is going to head there soon. Oh brother.
Love to see the Milwaukee bar so busy! They rocked it this week. Mac and Tommy were hysterical at the door . Tommy reminded me of the old New Orleans bouncers! Good job. So it appears that the perferred drink at the door is Amino Acid mix. Mac always training . Girls awesome. Hannah always works hard . Danielle was on fire too
