I travel

Traveling really gets you out there. Someone that stays at home and doesn't enjoy the world right outside I think is missing a lot. It's one thing to stay on the computer and perhaps read media and news about everything going on in the world and think that you've experienced everything out there.

But there's something about just going there.

Is it true what they say about New York?

I'm not sure if I want to go to new york really. Especially the busy part where all the money hungry vultures are. Why can't people in New York or Manhatten enjoy a Salon or Spa every once in awhile. I mean it seems there's plenty there!

Then there's New Jersey. What is New Jersey anyway? Is it like New York's little sibling? Are there any decent Salon and Spas or Massages available in New Jersey? That remains to be seen. Do you really need a bodyguard to walk across the street though? I'm not sure if I believe that.

Salon and Spa Junky

I tell you I am a spa junky! I just love to go to salons and spas and there appears to be a group of sites going up that make me go ewlala! First there's this site about Salons and Ohio that I think was neat. But then I was reading all about Virginia and how it was one of the original 13 colonies and came across Salon and Spas in Virginia website that was neat.

You know, I bet you the original settlers could have used a facial or a mani... And I think Pennsylvania Manicures or Hair Salon would work for the settlers that landed there.

Did you see that movie, what was it, John Smith? Omg that movie was boring! I won't spoil the ending, it's anti-climatic.

Boring Day In the AZ

Why do I live here again? Arizona is the hottest state in the planet. I mean really. You walk outside and it is literally an oven. Imagine going up to an oven that has pre-heated to 400 degrees farenheit and opening it in your face. That's Arizona in the summer time.

You'd think people would be outside during the summer, playing having a great time and all that jazz, right? Not in Arizona. You can't even go SWIMMING in the summer. Our pool in the summer? 94.5 degrees, I just ran and checked it.

It is a ghost town in the summer in Arizona. You only see people in their cars with the AC blasting but no children playing. No dogs walking. They do it at night, when it cools off to 101 degrees. And then, well, you can't see them because it's dark out.

Illinois Was Pretty Bland

On our big trip through the midwest we drove through Illinois. Whata place I tell yah. Chicago seemed be just like out of a movie. I don't have much to say about it. It also rained the entire drive through the place, so maybe I'm a little biased.

We used another site to find a dentist in Illinois because my boyfriend bit down on hard candy and broke his back right molar. I laughed for maybe 30 seconds until I realized he was really hurt and we had to stop and make some calls. Here is the one we went to, they did a good job: Ashland Dental Center

But I don't really want to go here again. I mean we had fun at some Illinois casinos but we lost all our money and we had to charge on a credit card my boyfriend's dental work. It all was pretty rotten. And the last thing I want to do is go to a cash advance payday loan in Illinois. The whole place was just CrEePy!

Bub bye now!

Oh yeah! The U.P. (Upper Peninsula) is cool!

I forgot to add that we went across the Mackinac bridge to the UP of Michigan. Coolest bridge ever. It's like 5 miles long connecting the Lower Peninsula to the Upper. Without a bridge, how would anyone get across! Anyway it was a great drive but it costs like $2 or something each way to drive it. That'd get expensive if you worked and lived on opposite sides.

Anyway, we drove through the UP too all the way through to Minnesota (via Wisconsin). I found another site all about the businesses in Minnesota too. Pretty cool. So when we needed to find a restaurant in Minnesota we didn't have any problem. I find the best sites for travelers I tell ya!

Good thing too, because our little taco bell dog Ruffy ran out of treats. So we found a great place for dog pet food and treats in Minnesota! Just ask me, I know peeps!

Michigan is beautiful

I had a chance to go to Michigan (you know the state that looks like a mitten) and boy was it beautiful. We got lost a lot though, but with this site I found I never had a problem finding a Michigan hair salon or a place to get my nails done in Michigan!

My current boyfriend is everything my last one wasn't. He is supportive, a gentleman and everything I want and more. I just feel so lucky. It's crazy but every stumbling block I've been running into has turned into a stepping stone. Everything that's happened is leading me somewhere. Where? I don't know! But I can only believe it's only greeeaaat stuff ahead.

While we were in Michigan, my sister was in the middle of a messy divorce. She said she didn't need an attorney, but I kept telling her she DID. We sat down and went to AllofMichigan to hopefully find an attorney. All we needed was a divorce attorney lawyer in Michigan near Troy. We think we found a good one here:Stackpole, Harrison C. Attorney but we'll see.

That's it for now!
