You two should come hang in St. Pete in May when I'm done with classes. I don't know if you like blues or not, but the Tampa Bay Blues Festival is May 5-7 if you guys want to come over for that. It should be mad fun. My boy will be here then. Yay!! Kate's got a new awesome man, too.
i want to!!! his mother lives over there so we're bound to come by sometime :D
you would have loved the turtles drea there were 10 of them for the turtle pond and atm there's only 3 show quality koi in the pond (it hasn't cleared up) but they'll be putting more in soon! soooo pretty
oh, and see the 2 hour special mid-march because the turtle pond will be the theme :D lots of mike and luz footage ;)
haha have we told you about the drama with the turtle??
the next day after you guys left there was this whole fight with ed and paul and mike against preston about an "island" in the middle of the pond, the beach, etc. all on camera.
we had to drive around to look for something to make an island of because preston was insisting on it. looked everywhere, no rocks. we called him up about the turtle i spotted near the set to make a turtle island, and he didn't like it. we just said fuckit and brought back the turtle. everybody loves it. :D designers included.
dunno what preston thought about it but paul said he ended up going to the hospital because he got food poisoning.
anyways, thank you so much jen and khris for helping out that day!! couldn't have done it/would have died driving or got lost without you! we love you guys!! :D
you're not dumb silly :P i am rather random with my posts so i suppose it's probably not as cohesive to you folks out there. sorry about that! :)
story of how it all came to be: - mercedes homes contacted mike about a pond for the house they're doing for the em:he show - we gathered up folks to help out with the project and built the pond in 4 hours under extreme conditions. - the next three days or so were spent in orlando doing random stuff in our designated area (rocks, plants, fishes, turtles, etc)
maybe i should note that the huge turtle is decorative..
thank you! glad you like! :)
we would have recruited you orlando-ian folks for help but assumed you were busy with work and school. :/ would have been nice to have you with us though! :)
Hehehe. I meant to ask you how that whole stuff went. I've seen some pics of the house on TV. So huge, such little time. Any chance of seeing a Luz jumping up and down in the background when the show airs?
no such fun footage but if the turtle fight airs, luz is right inside the pond shoving gravel between rocks whilst the design team and mike argues. and they kept on shooting at me while i was drenched in the darn thing so yay..more of luz being wet in the pond.
Naked cowboy? Brokeback mountain (I saw the first half) or something else? I would love to have fun, but I'm sure you are doing it during one of my no fun times. (13hours of programming in one day...I can't wait until this semester is over. I'm pretty definite that there wille no grad school, at least for now, because I'm just plain tired of school.)
Fortunately, spring break is next week. Unfortunately, we (family) are heading out to Texas next week, and then I have to be back by next Friday because *insert sacastic yay* I'm suppose to present my senior research at a conference at FIT. Although I'm not sure if I got funding from the dean here and really don't want to spend $200+ of my own money, so... we shall see what happens with that.
