  1. New Hair Makes Me Happy

    May 8, 2009 by Kelly

    Friday, May 1st, I was getting ready for work. Jeff decided mentally “Might as well tell her now!”, so he busted up in the bathroom, swinging the door open, and yelled “YOU WON!!” Still half asleep I STILL knew what that meant. I was getting my hair cut, colored, highlighted, eyebrows done, and product for FREE! After that set it, I then yelled at Jeff for scaring the crap out of me.

    Tuesday, May 5th was the day. I finally had my haircut by someone that knew what they were doing. Lisa at AdoreDeSalon is wonderful.

    When I walked in there I was looking pretty rough. My hair was up in a clip (anyone surprised?) and it just wasn’t doing anything.

    The cutting begins!

    When I walked out — I honestly felt like I had a wig on. My hair was amazing. It was completely different hair. People asked me if I had a perm. I could gladly say “Nope, this is my hair..with a little product!” Who would have thought in a little over 2 hours my hair could look like this!

    Before …. After

    Thanks to both Melanie (Modern Mami) and Lisa (Adore De Salon) for doing this giveaway.

  2. Manta – A Ride Like No Other

    May 6, 2009 by Kelly

    On Monday, May 4, 2009 (one day before Manta was opening for the public preview!) the Manta Fever VIP Preview happened.

    Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, everyone that has a strong urge to fly like a manta and a strong stomach, you MUST get yourself to SeaWorld as fast as your wings can fly and get on Manta! It is an amazing ride like no other.

    Now that I’m a pro at it, having done the ride 4 times that night, I can officially say — Manta is the BEST! I love all roller coasters in the Central Florida area, but NOTHING compares to the feeling of laying down and flying over SeaWorld!

    Here is my video of that night which includes the SeaWorld President talking about Manta and the whole attraction and also video of the ride! Yes, the WHOLE ride! Here’s ALL you have to do to watch this video:

    1. Put your computer on the ground (or somewhere where you will be able to see it from the ground.
    2. Lay on the ground, on your stomach, and make sure to lock your feet into the leg harness.

    ENJOY!

  3. Sunday Afternoon Out

    May 3, 2009 by Kelly

    Our neighbors asked us earlier in the week if we wanted to go to the beach Sunday (aka today). Jeff’s not a fan of the beach, so I wasn’t sure how well he would take this invitation. To get right to it, WE WENT TO THE BEACH TODAY!

    After trying to decide what beach, then deciding on Clearwater Beach and then getting yelled at for it being “too far”, THEN missing the exit — we had a great time.

    There was sunning, fishing, lunching, tweeting, whining, and sanding.

  4. Eden Bar. #Otweet: Part Duex

    May 1, 2009 by Kelly

    The place: @Eden Bar at @EnzianTheater. The reason: the second @OrlandoTweetup (II — for Ross!)

    Fun was had. Drinks were had. Tweeting was had.

    Thursday, April 30, 2009 – @OrlandoTweetup and @OrlandoSentinel put on the second major tweetup for Orlando. I got to see friends again and then met quite a few new faces (even @JustinEdwards, whom doesn’t have a twitter face!)

    About a hour into being there, @IAmGonzilla spotted @TomSorrells walk in and she immediately went over to chat. Great photo opp if I do say so myself.


    Saw @SomaCow, @SomaCowGeoff, @ComaSowJen, @Evanzan, @FosterVideoPro, @SirKyle, @WebFugitive, @ModernMami, @EggMarketing, @ShawnRoberts (and many others whom I am forgetting now. Sorry!)

    After I saw people that I knew and had a couple of drinks (yep, that helped!), I started to wander around and I met some new people! Some awesome people. @Shaanx, @Kfreshness, @ValerieWare, @LoveIsAnAction (who runs a non-profit charity to help the homeless, @Nomsa), @CoreyVincent, and @JohnRoquemore.

    Other random pictures from the night (which including Jeff – @bananakin – walking around with a bottle of Kosher Coke).

    Once again, @etanowitz, @dsashin, and the @OrlandoSentinel did a wonderful job.

  5. Indomitable

    April 30, 2009 by Kelly

    I sent out a tweet today asking for one word. Thankfully @ThisIsChico gave me a word.

    Indomitable.

    My plan was — search flickr and see what I can come up with. Amazingly enough, people have used indomitable as a name and/or tag.
