It’s day two of Virgo Bash but for us it seems more like day one because we woke up here instead of spending half the day getting here. We’re all super excited and just want to get out and explore Playa Del Carmen and we start with the breakfast buffet. Anyone who knows me well knows that I’m not a fan of buffets. When I dine out I like the idea of having my food cooked especially for me. Being in my joyous state of mind I didn’t mind the buffet today and it wasn’t even amazing. Good thing too because I want to keep my girly figure for the beach. You feel me?

After breakfast we head back to our rooms for last minute touch ups and if you’ve ever been on an all girls vacation then you’d know that last minute touch ups can last anywhere from 15 minutes to a couple of hours. I don’t know but that’s just the way it goes. We’re ready to explore the island so while out we book a few excursions with this dude. I love that Jack is always ready for the camera.

Playa Del Carmen is such a cute town. My sister said I would love it and that, “It’s very quaint and has a “village” feel.” Um, after last night I’m not so sure I agree with her. I don’t know which Playa Del Carmen she stayed at but it’s not the same one we’re in. I didn’t really get the same quaint village vibe that she did but it is a vibrant town where you can find streets lined with vendors trying to make a buck selling useless chotskisest. The night life was wild but I’m sure after a week of living here it’d get old real fast.

After booking our trip we made haste back to our rooms so we could get ready for our snorkeling excursion. When we got to our rooms we were greeted by a beautiful swan towel.  I don’t care who your are, animal towels will always put a smile on anyone’s face.

After that we had to take a half hour boat ride to get to the snorkeling site.

When we got to land we had some time to kill so we wandered about.

And went out in search of some authentic tacos from Mexico.

I tried a new drink and heads up, it sucks dirty donkey dick.

Here check out the girls reaction to it.

This Mexicano followed me around the corner trying to get me to buy corn. On the way back I insisted that he take a picture with me. You know you totally dig his silver front tooth too. Didn’t realize it then but guess it’s pretty dick of me for using him and his corn for a photo shoot and not buying any corn afterwards. Oh, and your welcome for the crotch shot.

Michelle’s sister was aimlessly wandering about. Mitchell, seriously tell her you want your boots back.

Our glass bottom  boat is here. The clear glass bottom is so cool for all of 20 minutes but once the boat takes off it’s the gorgeous scenery all around us steals the show.

Me and my best bud in the whole wide world.

When we get there Jack jumps right in cause she’s too cool to get schooled.

And everyone follows, but Elicia. She stays behind with her new Mexican boyfriend, Choot Cho.

We snorkel at 3 different locations. It was totally awesome! I think my favorite was the ginormous school of fish right below us. It was so real.

Sorry to disappoint but Mitchell was by far the most fearless.

And Elicia did finally get in.

As you can see we had a blast. By the time where done with our 3rd snorkeling adventure we were totally ready to get back to land, down a few beers and just relax. We had some time to kill before the other boat arrived to take us back to Play Del Carmen so we settled for beers here. Oh did I mention that it’s Jack’s birthday today. Happy Birthday bud. I love you.

We were having so much fun that we almost missed our ride. Whoa, close one girls, especially considering we had to dodge the policia on the way there

We we get back we all agree that we just want to be wined and dined tonight so we got all glammed up and went out for a nice dinner. Man we were some sexy bitches. Play Del Carmen loved us!

Seriously, will someone please get that stupid waiter out of our photo shoot. Sheesh! And whoa, I didn’t realize my dress was so short. Sweeeeet!

Jack got us all Virgo Bash rings to symbolize her Golden Birthday. Man, either these girls need to tan or I’m just freaking dark.

I don’t really remember what we did after dinner but I assure you we had a blast.

Playa Del Carmen I love you!

You heard me right. You see every year my friends do this little thing called Virgo Bash. It’s a celebration of all their birthdays rolled into one big bash. This year was especially special because not only were we celebrating Virgo birthdays but we were also celebrating a lot of our Golden Birthdays as well. The trip was centered around Jackie’s birthday and she wanted to make it a trip to remember and what better way to do that than to make it an only girls trip I’d like to refer to as Panocha Palooza.

This is where we stayed at the first half of our trip. I don’t really remember the name but it was a nice resort on the beach. When we first got there we spent the first hour and a half trying to upgrade our room going from room to sweet to junior sweet and then across the street to the sister hotel to check out their rooms and then back to this resort to check out more rooms only to keep the rooms that was originally booked for us. Yep, totally sound like something that we would do. Now that we have the room situation squared away it’s time to check out the resort. Come on ladies!

First things first, lets eat. You know me, dessert first because I believe in saving the best for first.

After some mediocre food we got into our sexy bikinis and headed straight for the pool. And this is about the time when our high went from high to low. We got scolded like 6 times, no joke. Seriously, we couldn’t smoke in the pool (you know Jack wasn’t happy about that at all). Hell I don’t smoke and I wasn’t happy about that. But not only could we not smoke in the pool we couldn’t bring our drinks in the pool either. Hello we’re on vacation people! Each time they mentioned it to us we said okay and just went about living our lives. And each time they would send someone else over that was higher up in the chain of command  until finally we grew tired of them and took our asses, drinks and cigarettes out of the pool and over to the bar.

Where Jack could smoke to her hearts, or lungs desire.

After a few drinks we got dressed and ventured out. Playa Del Carmen ready or not here we come!

Playa Del Carmen is Awesome! The streets were packed with tourist looking for a good time and locals looking to scam the tourists. Either way everyone is happy. As you can clearly see we we’re all happy.  Not really sure who most of these guys are but everyone just wanted to hang out. The first club we went to had a line and we walked straight to the front and got in cover free. How’d that happen? I don’t know I just kept walking. I think one of these guys knew the bouncer or something.

Swings instead of bar stools, I love it!

We all loved it!

We drank, danced, took more photos . . .

Got a little crazy and walked back to the resort. It was a good first vacation day. I can’t wait till tomorrow!

Today I went to Sparrows to meet up with some of my girlfriends for some pool side fun. What a better way to spend the day. Sparrow, being the escentric host that she is bought us all these awesome visors, noodles, cups, towels, candy . . . am I forgetting anything? Probably. She’s a hoot and we all love her.

Today I have two dinner dates. I have to meet my Catz’s girls, Lauren and Suzi at 6 for sushi and then my bud Brandi at 7-ish. Sushi was suprisingly really good and free. Thanks Lauren and Suzi. I have to say coming from Hawaii I was really skeptical of the sushi in Texas but it was yummy. Yay! Brandi met picked me up and with her she brought her daughter and her best friend. They make me wish I were young again.

It was a good night.

We finally got a chance to take our boat out. It’s about time. We looked like a bunch of morons backing the boat down the dock since none of us had much experience at it but once we got the boat in the water it was smooth sailing from there.

Unfortunately we had to cut it short because I had prior plans to meet my girl frineds at the Oasis. The lake was a last minute trip and I’d be damned if I let Ray go out without me, for the first time anyway.

Looks like we have a busy weekend ahead of us. Bea’s is flying in for her baby shower. My best bud, Jack, is flying in from Florida and Ray and I couldn’t be more excited to see everyone. We make plans to meet everyone at Snuffer’s when we arrive in Dallas. After dinner we drag poor preggo Bea to Loft 1610 where VIP table side service awaits us.

I got really drunk and got scolded for getting my own drinks by both the wait staff and the bouncer. I don’t really remember the situation but I’m sure it was funny.

The next day was Bea’s baby shower. I was in charge of the games because I’m totally awesome.

The boys sucking apple juice out of a bottle. Come on guys, it’s just like sucking on a nipple.

Kuya Ben mentally preparing himself for the pudding shit he’s about to consume out of a diaper.

And the winner is awarded . . . a lovely photo of preggo Bea!

The boys listening carefully to my instructions.

Kimmy’s little boy, Max.

Bernh’s little baby.

Little Cloe wrapping a toilet paper diaper. This doesn’t look good. Please don’t photo shop this anyone.

Lyric gets one too. Man, Jackie’s good at this.

I get one, but McKayla wasn’t very gently and the paper kept ripping.

Team Cooper.

Kuya Vince, I have no words for you right now.

Winner!

Next is time for Bea to get some practice feeding the baby, blind folded. If you ever wanted to get Bernh back for anything Bea Bot here’s your chance.

So close.

Good job! Your mother instincts really kicked in there. Way to go!

Bea and Mama. I love them both very much.

Next was musical diaper shit. This game sucked.

After baby shower extravaganzia Jackie and I went on a trip down memory lane to see her old house.

But it was gone. The house was apparently knocked down awhile back. Sorry Jack, you can cry in the car lets move on shall we. It’s dinner time.

Oh God, am I drunk already. Sheeesh!

After dinner we all wandered to some club.

I always have so much fun when I’m around Jack.

All I remember is being in a totally crowded elevator and getting everyone involved in a high five session.

It’s morning and I’m still not home. What a night.

Bea’s flying in which means we have no choice but to drive up to Dallas to go run her belly. Oh, don’t know if I mentioned it yet, but Bea’s prenant. Yay! I’ve never seen a pregnant woman so effing adorable.

Kuya benn looks good in a hat and I don’t care what anyone has to say I rock in my clip-ons.

I snapped a photo just as Ray threw a ball on Ben as he was sleeping. Oh how we love to torment him. Poor Ben.

Before we head home Ray finally gets to work on his car with his dad.

I totally look like Eircle here with my shorts so high up and camera around my neck.

I wouldn’t mess with them.

Gangsta love.

Toward the end of the night we gathered everyone around to played games. Someone tell that annoying little Asian to sit her ass down.

What a great party.
