The Fabulous Life of Jobin Hume

Milestones

Last week I took a friend of mine to get her first Botox.  This is a milestone for both of us.  Her because now that seal is broken and it leads to all other kinds of vanity you didn't know you had in you.

Me because it is one thing to buy a friend a pedicure or manicure for their birthday.  This is a whole other genre - some kind of switch has been flipped.

Also, I came to the realization that I get Botox 3-4 times per year, but only go to the dentist twice per year.  While I realize this is the correct schedule, it worries me nonetheless.

40 isn't too old

Marcy's friend gave her some last minute tickets to the Vikings game today.  She called originally to see if I could babysit - but between the time she left the message and the time I called her back, she not only had a babysitter, but an extra ticket so I got to go with!!  OMG it was really fun.

First of all, it was me, Marcy, her 17 year old Norweigan exchange student Mats, and her 16 year old neighbor Antoine - you know, my usual posse.  It wasn't until 11am that we decided to go, and didn't wake up Antoine until 11:30, so we were a few minutes late, but really hardly at all given those circumstances. Antoine, by the way, has French parents and was born in Chicago, although his father currently works in the Congo and does watch NFL games from there.  As a result, Marcy called Norway to tell Mat's uncle to watch for us on TV, but apparently Vikings games aren't regularly broadcast there.  Congo 1, Norway 0

When we got there, we found that we were on the 40 yard line in the 14th row - thanks Marcy's friend!

It was a good thing Antoine was there because Marcy and I both enjoy watching but aren't really in a football-rules-explaining position.

It was totally fun and Brett Farve is totally not too old to be playing.  I apologize for the snide remarks I have made on this topic in the past.

Here we are - I'm looking all shiny, since I got dressed in 2.5 minutes and apparently skipped the personalizer - don't use this as an example of Arbonne makeup.

We had as much fun watching the crazy people surrounding us - those pix to follow

The longest train in the world

Has been rolling past Ashley's window for 10 minutes. Sometimes it slows down and is quieter so I am lulled into a fantasy that it will be over soon but that is just a cruel trick

The new best line of the night

Angie fell over on her ass like a cartoon or something.  She was laying on her back with her legs and arms in the air like a turtle on it's back. The group next to us was watching and lept into action.  One lady moved in slow motion to try to catch her but missed. Then, another lady holds her hands out and says "Wait".  I am expecting her to say she is a doctor or nurse or something, but instead she totally regulates the situation and says "it's ok she just has to dance it off". And that was true. 

I have been trumped

OK - we were sitting there minding our own business, when someone comes screeching out of the bathroom and announces there is a 6 foot 4 drag queen in the bathroom, so of course our goal now is to locate her.

Our waitress was taking forever to come back so I squeezed my way into the bar to get a glass of water and find myself elbow to elbow with her/him.

I told Nikki that I talked to the drag queen and she said "yah. She kissed me on the mouth.". Ladies we have a winner.

Nikki (with the old guy who spent his evening dancing with our group.  He was 70 if he was a day and totally busted a move:

The drag queen.  God as my witness her name is Pat.

OMG

I hung out with a drag queen and a sewed a stranger into her dress. Post pics later. Quite a night

Fail

Bathroom at w hotel. Me: using contraband bobbi brown lip gloss. Rochelle turns to me and says " I know you! I saw you speak at an arbonne event". She is using an arbonne lip pencil but doesn't even sell it. Busted. Lesson learned. Someone is always watching

Why you can be arrested

If you spray hair spray in a crowded bathroom there is a special place in hell for you

The best gift so far

A pink leather flask with Ashley's new initials.

My favorite quote so far

After tasting edible body mousse:

Teri: What flavor was it?

Nikki: gross in my mouth

She seriously looked like she ate rat poison. Nikki is my new best friend
