Vegas Here We Come

We are on our way! Yes, people we are going to Vegas! We leave in a couple of hours. And I am pumped! After our show last night, we are so ready for Vegas! We performed 2 shows last night. And the BBs performed 1 set. They didn't do more because they had just played in NC. But they are definitely ready too! The VIP show lasted until way into the wee hours of the morning. But it was a good show!

Today when we get to Vegas, we are going to be practicing. We have on stage rehearsals for a few hours. Then we are going to a big and fancy dinner with our 2 bosses. They are pumped up! So am I! I enjoy performing. And lately, it doesn't happen much! But dinner with them is always fun. We laugh, eat, and eventually find ourselves playing poker!

We are going to be in Vegas until November 10th. That means Halloween in Sin City. And boy Cole did not disappoint in the costume scene. Not at all! Besides the costumes she made for the shows, she made 2 sets of costumes for our Halloween shows. One night, we are going to be Barbies! How fun is that? I am ready! On Halloween, we are going to be HOT Vampires! It is going to be fun!

That's about all. There are 75 people going! I know! It is crazy. But it is the band. Some of them are taking their girlfriends or wives. Then you have us ladies and Lola. Some friends are meeting us. And Mr. Blue Eyes and his friends are going. We have our team, Manders, D, and Cole. There are a bunch of people going. But this is no way the largest group we have ever taken with us! We are flying on 2 private planes. I don't exactly know how we are splitting up. Then on the 3rd plane, it is the bands' instruments, our luggage, and anything else we need. Did I tell you, we ship trunks of clothes, shoes, makeup, etc. ahead of time? Yup! We have a lot of junk that we have to take. But it should be fun! ~Tabi

Tired and Packing

I'm completely exhausted! Ya I am! But I need to pack. We are going to be gone until November 10th! OMG! I can't believe how long this set of shows is going to be. I am a little nervous. We haven't really been too prepared this time around. I don't know why. But after tonight, I am scared for tomorrow. We are going to practice with Lola. Then we are doing a VIP performance. Super nervous!

Tuesday morning, we are leaving for Vegas! I am excited about going. But still worried. After we perform 2-3 times, I will be OK again. It is just getting over the nerves the first few times. Going through hair and makeup. Making sure we don't have any costume malfunctions. That sort of thing. Both Daddy Warbucks and GQ Man are coming to watch our VIP Show. They are our bosses. Just a little more to be worried about!

But I can't stress too much about that right now! I need to pack. I need to remember everything that I need to take. Because I always forget something! Thank God we send our costumes ahead of time. And the Cole is going to take what we need tomorrow. Because I have been known to forget some important things like that! ~Tabi

Friday Fill-ins

1. The crickets sing, bedtime songs.

2. I love you wherever you are.

3. I want to get far away from the stress and pain of these practices.

4. My paycheck for Sin City; this was a dream.

5. But as for me I am going to enjoy it, because I've earned it.

6. Who knows where I come from.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to going home after practice, tomorrow my plans include rehearsal all day and Sunday, I want to pack for our trip! ~Tabi

Finally Home

I finally got home. It is much warmer here! Yay! I am so glad!!! I have seen enough rain for a long while. All it did while we were in NC was rain. It was so cold out there. We all ended up buying hats, scarves, and gloves.

But it was a good time. I am glad that we went! We only practiced 2 times. But that was OK. It was like a bonding trip for all of us. We got much closer. I also tried to convince Daddy Warbucks to join us on twitter. But no deal yet. I am a little worried about our upcoming rehearsals though!!!

Daddy Warbucks and GQ are going to possibly attend our upcoming practices. I could also tell that Lola was ready to pick apart everything. We have had so much material to learn. And no time at all! With some of the girls getting sick, that really cut into our practice time.

This week is going to be murder. And it is going to be worse when Lola starts practicing with us. But it is almost time for us to go perform. We all need that kick in the butt! I just hope, that my butt stays in 1 piece. Only time will tell. ~Tabi

A Challenge

The guys challenged us girls to a pool tournament tonight. I don't think, that they thought, that we know how to play pool. I have to admit, we like to play when we go to Sin City! Lola is a pool shark!!! I think she could have a career in it if she chose to.

But the guys challenged us. I think that Mr. Blue Eyes there, wanted to challenge Lola. Or watch her play. Either way, we were all up for the challenge! One by one, we beat the guys. I don't think they could believe their eyes!!!

Lola spanked Mr. Blue Eyes. But he didn't mind. I caught him more than once checking her out! It was hysterical! When all was said and done Ladies 28-Guys 3! Yup, we spanked them! A few of the guys wanted to challenge us to something else. But couldn't figure out what. They thought about Poker. Then they remembered that Lola plays with the Mafia when we go to Sin City. Ya, we know the Mafia. And they like to play Poker. They have taught us all!

Instead, we have just been hanging out. It has been a lot of fun! Lola cooked a big BBQ spread. Mr. Blue Eyes helped out. He was the "Grill Man." The food was so good. It is a nice way to end out trip. It is still cold and rainy. But we are having such a good time! I really don't want to go home! ~Tabi

Jewelry Man

Tonight, I decided to help out backstage. I know Cole and Manders are a little overwhelmed. Lola has 5 complete costume and jewelry changes. I volunteered to help. I also think it will keep me away from the mechanical bull! It was fun to ride last night. But I do need a little rest from it!

There are so many people here tonight! It is crazy. But the band is incredible tonight!!! They are performing for a fundraiser. It is to help kids. Totally a good cause. Lola has a body guard. It is pretty funny. He has to guard the jewels that she gets to wear. They are beauties!

This guy is so serious. He won't crack a smile!!! I tried to crack some jokes. You know me!!! But he just won't pay any attention. He has to follow her everywhere. Her and the jewels. He carries what she is not wearing at the moment. He also knows the schedule for her costume changes. He hands me what we need as she is coming off the stage.

But he follows her and I until we get to her dressing room. Then he waits outside. He also followed her to an off stage bathroom. And stood right outside the door. What a job!!! But he is serious about it.

For me, tonight is a lot milder than last night. Last night, I just had a really good time. I had a couple of drinks. And took a few rides on the mechanical bull. By the way, if you have never tried one before, you should!!! It is so much fun!!!

I should get back to paying attention. Lola has a costume change coming up. Manders is in charge of her hair and makeup. Cole deals with the clothes and shoes. I do the jewelry. And there are 5 costume changes. We have 2 minutes to get it all done!!! Craziness!!! ~Tabi

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to the show, tomorrow my plans include a great adventure and Sunday, I want to try the mechanical bull! ~Tabi

Being a VIP

It is hilarious! Last night we got the VIP treatment. The group of us went out to dinner. The BBs and Lola had a big show. They were off with their boss working. And prepping for their show.

Daddy Warbucks (our boss) took all us girls out to dinner. We had a great time!!! I have a feeling that if we had not been VIPs, we would have been thrown out! Because we were a little loud. But we were enjoying ourselves. Laughing and joking around! And it was a big group! The food was so good! If I lived in the South, I would be 200lbs!!! No lie!!!

After dinner, we made our way to the show. It was pouring. It has been since we got here! But the rain and the cold are not stopping us! Daddy Warbucks is just hilarious!!! He made the car practically park on the door. We had the VIP treatment there as well. Cole told us that she could get used to it. To be honest, so could I!

The show was amazing! But the BBs are always amazing! Our boss, he is IN LOVE with Lola. It was hysterical to watch him get all hot and heavy for her. She sang a lot of really romantic music. Daddy Warbucks was about to jump out of his seat. Lola just doesn't get that she has this effect on people. You should have seen her boss. Not only is he easy on the eyes, but he is also totally into her!!!

Right now, we are on our way to do some shopping. I am anxious to get to MAC. But there are so many shops that we want to get to! We have been talking to the locals. They pointed us in the right direction. To all the cute boutiques! I hope I find some cute clothes!!! Lola really should think about moving out here!!! I would visit her a few times a year!!! ~Tabi

Going to NC

We are on our way to North Carolina. I still don't completely understand why. But I'm not going to question it. The girls and I got to come. Because we need to practice with Lola. Our Vegas shows are just around the corner! But she is performing this week with the BBs. Our boss is flying us all to NC to try and squeeze some rehearsals in!!!

When we are not rehearsing, we are going to enjoy the South. And the BBs and Lola performing. I hear they are performing in one of the best clubs in the area. I am very excited about it! The band has a ton of big shows every night!!! ~Tabi

YouTube Addict Here

I think I have become a YouTube addict!!! I can't sleep. Well, OK. Let's be honest. I slept 3 hours. Because I was watching YouTube videos. I think I am going to be paying the price today! I have to get ready for work right now. And all I can think of, is crawling back into bed and going back to sleep! I need to walk away from the computer. Get some sleep. Go to work. Then maybe, I will let myself watch some more videos. ~Tabi

Cinderella

Yup, I want to watch Cinderella. It is my favorite movies of all time! No lie! When I was little, I went through 3 VHS tapes of Cinderella. Because I watched it all the time. Cinderella was always my favorite character. Out of all the characters out there.

As a kid, we went to Disneyland. I about died when I saw Cinderella. And I still think about that day. You know, some things are just engraved in your memory forever! Meeting Cinderella is one of those memories.

Lately, I have not been having much luck. Or much fun in life. Tonight, I really want to watch Cinderella. But I have no clue where it is!!! I have searched and searched. But I can't find it! I just might have to go buy another DVD. I wonder if Wally World has it... ~Tabi

Friday Fill-ins

1. Sweet dreams what I need right now.

2. I just got a present in the mail, especially for me.

3. Silliness is my favorite part of the day.

4. I'm performing this Halloween.

5. Outstanding or not I LOVE my house.

6. A hot bath is what I want right now!

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to my pizza and YouTube videos, tomorrow my plans include cleaning and Sunday, I want to see the girls! ~Tabi

Grey's Anatomy

Grey's Anatomy is one of my favorite shows!!! I'm glad that it is back. And tonight, did not disappoint. I thought that I would have to miss it. We have been practicing for our Vegas shows. But our rehearsal got cancelled tonight. I was glued to the TV!!!

Thatcher returned. In need of a liver transplant. I was shocked when Meredith decided to be the donor. She paced and paced. In the end, she did it for Lexie. I'm kinda bummed that Ellen Pompeo's character is going to be absent until she returns from her maternity leave. She is definitely my favorite character!

Cristina's character cracked me up! I just had to laugh at her surgery. But she is one of the most important characters in this show. She just makes the show. I am already so full of Izzy. Honestly, I wouldn't miss her if she was gone.

For a while there, this show was a disappointment. I think with the writer's strike and without Isaiah Washington, the show got a bit boring. I'm glad to see it back. And at the level that it is at. I can't wait until next week! ~Tabi

xXxOnnaxXx

I did it again. Well, I didn't. Lola did. She found another great YouTube Guru. And watched I don't know how many of her videos. Then she told me about Onna. I watched a couple, then they were no more! Although, xXxOnnaxXx did recently delete all her videos. She is now posting new ones. I can appreciate the need to clean out the old and start fresh. Believe me. I'm working on that! Here is a quick hair tutorial...

I really like this look! Heck, I can go out on a limb and say it, I LOVE this look! Manders recently did something like this for Lola. They working a photo shoot, for an upcoming gig in NC. Was totally hot and rocking! But I had no idea that I could pull it off. Until now! I found Onna's channel.

You should really go check it out. Onna is super sweet. I love her accent! Did I mention? She is from the UK! Onna has a twitter and a blog. Run, go check out Onna's great insight! ~Tabi

Glintzy Sigma Brush Giveaway

So you know me. I am all into YouTube. I watch videos all the time! Well, when I am not working. But you know what I mean. I am a YouTube addict!

I can barely move because we have been rehearsing like crazy. Every single muscle in my body hurts! And badly. When I am not at rehearsal, I am dying in bed. With my laptop! That means I am watching a ton and a half of YouTube videos. Like anyone thinks that is a good enough reason for me to watch hours of YouTube!!!

But glintzy, or Aimee, is another one of those gurus that I like to watch. Aimee does lots of makeup videos. And she has recently started fashion of the day videos. My favorites are her thrift shopping hauls. But Aimee also hosts lots of contests! She is now hosting a big Sigma Brush giveaway! There are 7 big prizes...

I have seen, I don't know how many videos on Sigma brushes. I can't lie, I want some! Real bad!!! But you know, bills get in the way. I have these brushes on my wishlist though! I wish I could enter for the entire set. But you know, I don't make videos. But I am going to enter for set #3. I think I would get the best use out of those. Maybe I can buy a couple of the face brushes later.

If you like Aimee, or want to enter the contest, go check out her channel. She also has a blog and is on twitter. Hurry! Run! You know you want some Sigma Brushes too! ~Tabi

xxglamxglamxx

I have found another YouTuber that I really enjoy, xxglamxglamxx, or Kristin. She does makeup. Kristin is an army wife. Living in Germany. She is on twitter and MySpace. Has another YouTube channel for army wives, fiances, and girlfriends. Kristen is just one of the sweetest people. Here is one of her makeup videos...

I just enjoy watching Kristen's videos. She is a real woman. Her husband is getting ready to deploy. So if you are a YouTuber, go give her some love! She is super talented and super sweet! Her channel is just a really nice one to be subscribed to. ~Tabi
