FIRST DAY

DSCF0008

Ally’s First day of School Pre-K that is. She’s all done with it now. The only thing she learned from here is how to say a mealtime prayer. Which has now replaced our usual Rub-a-dub-dub Thanks for the Grub. She’ll be starting REAL school in august.

Yes. There was even goodie bags. If you weren’t there. Be Jealous.

That Girl Is Only 15

My cousin recently had her QuinceaƱera. Time flies man. I was almost an adult at 17 when she was born. And now here she is almost the same age I was then. It was a big Spanish to-do mix of all hispanic cultures from our family and her father’s and their church. There was even a mariachi band!

Here her parents took the opportunity to serenade her with Las Mananitas, a traditional Mexican Birthday song.

The whole affair was a huge family reunion. My brother though thought it was a great idea to come up with this new design etched into this head.

Which definitely caused my Mom to ignore him/us the whole night.

My daughter took the opportunity to ham it up.

and dance.

The whole thing was based around Beauty and the Beast.DSCF0106

Just like at Disney World we even had to wait in line to get our picture taken with Belle, or rather my cousin dressed as her.

This post is getting quite long once again. But I leave you with this.  I’ve been going to a new Grocery store. Which has now been dubbed The Voodoo Grocery Store by certain acquaintances of mine.

These are some of the products on the shelf.

Princess Mama Brown Sugar is actually my new nickname for Skittles.

I can’t even comment on this shit. Somewhere Petey Greene is laughing his head off.

Update in Pictures (Revised)

 

( i edited this to add some BETTER Pictures)

 

Yeah it’s been awhile since I last posted, and as before the easiest way to go through the past few months is by pictures.

MARCH MEGALADON MUSIC MUSICA

020 021 024

The Megalodon Shark exhibit is now at the Miami Science Museum, this is from the premiere night, March 7th where not everything had been setup.  The second set of jaws are ginormous and give you an example on how big this fucker might of been.

At the time they had two more exhibits. One was about the science of music itself, you could remix a song and create a music video, but they also had these great candid photographs of Rock icons like Kurt Cobain, Freddie Mercury and Jimi Hendrix .

The other was a big audio-visual to-do complete with memorabilia and artifacts on the effect Latinos had in popular music.

025

It covered every single era and every genre and every musical style Latinos were ever involved in. From mambo to hip-hop. From Tito Puento to Daddy Yankee. It was quite an impressive exhibit. I’m not always a fan of Spanish music but this was an amazing exhibit. I’ll try to dig up some more pictures.

CARNAVAL

I tried to hit up a lot of the activities that week, here are some random shots of Carnaval on the Mile and Calle Ocho back on March 8th and March 15th.

CONCERT

Thanks to my new Sister-in-law i got  a chance to see my favorite folk-comedy-duo from New Zealand and my new favorite TV show stars, FLIGHT OF THE CONCHORDS. They came to the Bank United Center on April 7th.

The show was great and the seats were within spitting distance. Thanks again Monse!

ORLANDO

I won tickets from the Super Bowl contest Universal Studios had back in Feb. And they finally arrived. So I headed up north for a few days of fun. Of all the things this are has to offer this seemed the most wondrous.

093

I didn’t actually go in. Because The whole time I was looking for the location at Citywalk, I was building it up too much in my mind. I would totally have been disappointed if it was just an lame Burger King kiosk. No, I imagined I’d pull up a seat at the counter. and i could order a Whiskey to go with my triple whopper with cheese.

They also brought out some old favorites from the horror exhibit at Universal Studios.

SAME BAT BLOG

I just reloaded my PC, so i gotta dig up some more pictures. Next update will include the new Car, Memorial Day – July 4th. and odds an ends in between.

I know this update is kind of lame, so I’ll leave you with this.

I’m convinced it’s either a new cult. Or an experiment to entrap people into coming to church by making them pull over and telling them to change the sign.  Because it’s been up there since Mid-May and now  first week of July it’s still there.
