Tuesday, July 25, 2006 My trainer kicked my ass yesterday, and my legs are killing me. I have been watching Walrus' mom for the last 2 days since she can no longer be left alone. They found someone to watch her during the days....thank goddess. That woman is enough to drive anyone insane. Luckily I'm there already.Last weekend M took me on a surprise vacation. I had all hopes of going to SanDiego. He made the comment that "By the time we reach Santa Clarita you should know where we're going." I being the blonde and hopeful person I am say "San Diego???" He says yes....not even sarcastically mind you. So when he goes to get on the 5 North I'm like where are you going the 5 south is the other way. He looks and me and goes I know, and I said but we're going to SanDiego, and he says no. To which because I've been so completely overly emotional I get really depressed. Especially since I stressed to him that's where I wanted to go for my birthday. I had no clue as to where I'm going or anything else, and being the control freak I am I was going to LOOSE IT! I held it together as best I could until we got to our hotel. The very world Famous Madonna Inn. Can I just say what the fuck! That has got to be the cutiest hotel on the outside, but on the inside it's a nightmare. I was freaking out a bit when we were checking in and I saw the pictures of the other rooms (they're all themed rooms) but still held it together. Then we walked into our room........I walked in dropped my bags and burst into tears. M didn't know what to do. He was upset that I was depressed and that his plans were bursting into flames right in front of his face. He looked at me and said what do you want to do..I immedatly said can we please change hotels. He said he'd see what he could do. So I went to my massage (which is the only good thing to come out of that place) came back to find out he said my grandfather had just died and we needed to leave. The didn't charge us anything. Since I can't really get pictures (they're on my phone I'll show you all on Sat.) I'll have to describe the room since the picture on the web is majorly out of date. The room is half wans coated walls floor to ceiling stained bright yellow, the other half is white with felt dots pasted in florecent colors pasted in the shapes of daisy's all over the walls. The bed is a raised victorian bedframe with a HOT pink comfortor, the carpet is yellow but is so worn and stained you can only imagine what it would have looked like. Now for the bathroom.......It was GOLD from floor to ceiling. Not just any gold, but bright yellow lamay (can't spell) gold. The shower had to be 3' x 3' if that. The toilet was an old fashion pull top to fulsh it type thing. To top the bathroom off, the wallpaper had been peeled off the walls in some places. How much did all this cost per night you ask 319.50 per night. You got it!! After I found this out (after we left) I just about shit. He was paying that much per night for a shit hole!!! I think not!! So we went to a Quality Inn and paid a LOT less and it came with perks...free wine and beer from 5:30-7:30, as well a breakfast made to order every morning. It was really centerally located and we got lucky because the place was PACKED with kids and we were far away from the pool. Oh just to add M hated the room at the Madonna Inn as well so this wasn't me being a spoiled bitch... On Saturday M took me to Hurst Castle (a place where I wanted to get married once) and can I just say I love the place, the history, but mostly the art. However it was a fucking hot box. We got to the top room where Carol Lumbard and Clark Gable loved to stay and I wanted to pass out from the heat. I really wanted to go jump in one of the gorgeous pools. After that he took me to a resturant called Windows on the Water....a place I highly reccommend if you're every out near San Louis Obisbo or Morro Bay. The food was great and the view was to die for. The weekend started out pretty crappy, but it ended on a high note. I love M so much for doing that. I told him all weekend how thankful I was for him, and how much I love him lol! Not to mention made up for any inconvience in sex lol! |
