If I had a dime for every time Billy and I acted silly I’d be rich!
I love documenting everything and although it can get a bit redundant or even annoying- my loving, patient boyfriend Billy plays along. Well, on this day he took the cake. We were coming back from nabbing a bargain I caught on Craigslist and while he was driving I whipped out my digital camera. I hit record just to see what he would do and without any direction we turned into Margie and Gilbert.
This video is meant to make you laugh and think outside the box when you hold your digital camera in your sweaty little hands this sticky summer.
Gilbert and Margie are fictional characters played by Cindy and Billy for no apparent reason.
Watch, enjoy, and please leave a comment or two. Or even better, any requests?
My mother is like any other mother in that she is caring, overbearing at times and manages to call me at least five times a day. But I think today’s entry should be dedicated to her because without her I probably wouldn’t be who I am today. And I sure do love me.
Everyone has his or her faults; unfortunately my mom’s has always been being quite forgetful.
When I was about ten years old she took me to the mall, one of our weekly rituals (this explains my shopaholicism). We were in the now extinct Stern’s of Newport Centre Mall and of course without notice I decided to wander off. Five minutes went by and I had her in sight. Ten minutes went by and I was sure she was right down the aisle still shopping. Fifthteen minutes go by and then I realized she wasn’t around. So I started trekking through Stern’s looking for her but I couldn’t find her. She couldn’t have gone too far since I came with her, right? Wrong! She left.
I waited and waited and finally about a half and hour later she comes back screaming my name, “Yulissa! Yulissa! Donde estas?” and I come running down the aisle crying my little eyes out.
“Mami, where did you go? Why did you leave without me?” was all I managed to mumble. And she responded, “Ay dios mio, I forgot you came with me, I left the mall thinking you were at home and then half way there I realized I left you! I’m so sorry! It will never happen again.”
My mother actually left the mall and forgot I came with her. You can only imagine the repercussions this event has had on my life. I was traumatized. Anytime after that, I would walk right next to my mother and continuously remind her that she came with me and that she couldn’t leave without me. Her eyes rolled as if she were saying, “I know, I know.” But I know deep down inside she wished I would have forgotten about the whole thing. I didn’t. But at least now I can laugh about it.

Before I begin diving into the blog world I thought you should know some things about me.
1. I’m pretty sure I have A.D.D. although I have never been tested for it. I’m sure I do because a sentence longer than 30 seconds bores me to almighty death.
2. It takes me FOREVER to finish a book these days, again I blame this on the A.D.D.
3. I hate when people put the toilet roll facing under instead of over. What kind of human being does that!?
4. I’m really hard on myself. Like insanely hard. I wish I could let up and just relax, which is also something that is difficult for me to do.
5. I wish I had enough money to pay everything off and take all of my friends and family on amazing trips around the world.
6. I’m scared to call anyone my best friend.
7. I have serious O.C.D. I can’t go to bed without taking a shower beforehand and cannot stand the sight of dust.
8. Folding laundry and washing dishes relaxes my racing mind.
9. I love my dog to bits and pieces. I cry when the thought of him passing crosses my mind.
10. I used to smoke, like a lot in high school. Maybe I thought it was “cool” or maybe it was for some other reason. But I’ve always thought I was cool, hm. (Note: I have quit smoking)
11. According to my mother, I ran away/got kicked out of 13 day care centers. I know I know, insane, but I thought she was leaving me there forever!
12. I can’t believe I’m 25! That’s a quarter of a century people!!
13. My favorite number is 8. And the combination of 518. And much to my surprise I was born at 5:18am and my grandparents street address was 518. Weird. ::cue the scary music::
14. My earliest childhood memory is being in Peru with my family. One day I hope to live there for at least a year.
15. I want to adopt at least one child. I feel selfish having children when so many out there are in need of a home.
16. I hate chocolate. It’s just too damn sweet. Someone water that bad boy down!
17. I hate Pepsi and Coca-Cola. Again, way too sweet. My mom never ever had soda in the house, it was just unheard of.
18. I have the worst nightmares ever. I’m not sure this confession list is NOT ready for the disturbing details.
19. I like drinking water at room temperature. (That’s right I said it!) It’s not gross and I love it.
20. I think of 10 ideas for blogs like everyday. I’m jam packed full of ideas.
21. I secretly wish I was deserted on an island somewhere so I could really test myself. I’ve always wanted to see if I could survive out in the wild. Any takers?
22. I am lactose intolerate but I LOVE milk and cheese.
23. I love to motivate my friends to take whatever they are doing with their lives just a step further. It really makes me happy.
24. I’m so scared to get married.
25. And last but not least, I want to be Tina Fey when I grow up.
