ONE WILD & CRAZY NIGHT

Kris and I had a GIRL’S NIGHT OUT on Friday. We got invited to a V.I.P. party and had a blast with some of our new closest friends!

We arrived to the party and Oprah ran up to me and wanted to interview me. I really wasn’t in the mood to give another interview, but again “When in Rome”. I probably gave her the best interview of her lifetime.

Hugh Hefner was there. We didn’t get off to a good start. He didn’t like it when I called him a Pervert and smashed a champagne bottle into his head.

Daniel Craig, a.k.a. James Bond, came up to Kris and I and begged us to take a picture with him. How could we say no to James Bond?

George Clooney got jealous when he saw us with Daniel, and asked Kris and I to marry him. I told him I was already happily married but I would humor him and put the dress on and we can “pretend” to get married.

Kris and George got married...

...then had it annulled 20 minutes later.

George wishes

Kris soon saw her one true love Johnny Depp. He fell head over heals for her, of course. They are taking things slow, but so far so good.

I had to sit down with my boy Johnny and talk to him about if he wants to date my sister he needs to treat her like the queen she is. She doesn't need another dirt bag.

They had a karaoke at the party and Simon was there to judge the singers. He didn't give me a good review. He was kind enough to let me cry on his shoulder. Even though he has a hard shell on the outside, he is a soft gooey marshmallow on the inside. The big teddy bear.

Later Ryan Seacrest interviewed Kris and I. He wanted to know who we were wearing, and when I told him that I got my “designer” shirt at TJ MAXX he gave me a really confused face. As you can see from the crossed eyes he has in the picture. He had never heard of TJ MAXX before.

And I used to think he was hip.

Michael and I had a dance off. I won.

The Rock, or Duane and I had many good laughs that night.

Good guy.

Of course Brand and Angie were there. The entire night they kept asking if they could adopt me. Kinda creepy. I tried to steer clear from them.

Our long time friend Nicholas Cage.

Me and my main man, George!

We had to take a picture with our favorite cowboy, John Wayne.

I'm telling the GodFather a HILARIOUS joke. You can't tell, but he really did think it was funny. He was rolling on the floor laughing.

Prince and I striking a pose.

2pac is alive and well. He's a very serious man. Doesn't like to mess around.

It's all business with him.

James Brown and I rockin' out

Kris playing Shaq one on one.

Me and Cam shooting the breeze

My old pal Larry and I goofing around.

Siegfried and Roy brought their tiger to the party.

He hasn't stopped attacking people.

Luckily Siegfried and Roy are magicians so they magically put my arm back on.

This is Siegfried and I joking around. I’m tickling him with my new and

improved magically attached arm.

I forgot that I was a tiger whisperer so I was able to communicate with ‘Kitty’ (that’s what the tiger wanted to be called). We spent some time together and worked through many years of built up resentment and anger towards Siegfried and Roy. He’s doing much better now.

It looks like he is angry but he is smiling.

It was a fun typical night for the Pico Sisters.

Ain’t no party like a sista’s party, cuz a sista’s party don’t stop! Hoo Ha

ANOTHER FUN ADVENTURE...

ADVENTURES AT PUBLIC STORAGE

My beautiful sister flew in a week ago on Saturday. It all started out a mess that day. Kris flew in and had to get a cab to our place because Eric forgot that the only day to move the rest of our things was the day that Kris flew in. We are working on communicating. Poor Kris had to hang out at our apartment for seven fun hours.

By the time we arrived home it was close to 7:30. We picked up Kris and had her come help us unload the truck at the storage unit. This is where the real fun begins…

Public Storage is where we are renting our storage unit. At 9:00 p.m. the gates lock from the inside and out so you can’t get in or out. We weren’t aware of this and there are NO signs that say if you don’t exit by 9:00 p.m. you’re locked in until they open in the morning. We finish unloading everything around 10:15. We are exhausted and excited to get home to relax and eat. We hopped in the truck, pumch in our code on the key pad so we can get out and nothing happens. We punch in the code over and over and still nothing happens. We look around to see if there is a phone number to call and of course there isn’t. We saw a man walking around the storage units earlier so we went inside to find him hoping he could help us. We found him on the second floor and sad to say it looked like he was living inside his unit. He was very kind and gave us two numbers we could try and call. Both numbers we called we heard, “I’m sorry our office is closed. Please call during regular business hours.”
Eric finds a gate door that’s open. It’s big enough for a person to escape so we left the truck and call a cab to come pick us up. To make a long story short, we didn't get a cab, and ended up walking to the airport where Eric’s truck was parked from the previous day. Luckily the airport was only a few miles away. Keep in mind though it’s very late, poor Kris never complained and had nasty blisters on her feet, we look homeless because we have a duffle bag and grocery sacks. The streets are busy and we got honked and yelled at, then we saw a little accident on our way to the airport.
It was a very adventurous night. We got home around 12:30 a.m. We ended the night with cheese crisps and frozen pizza. It will be a night we will never forget. Welcome to Vegas Kris! Who would like to visit us next?

I am so glad that my sis was able to come out. I miss being with her so much. I am very grateful for the friendship we have. She’s my best friend. Thank you sis for everything! I love you and can’t wait for our next adventure!

Moving On Up

We are officially Las Vegans! Woo Hoo! We have lived here for a week and 2 days. We left Mesa on Saturday, March 28th. My bff, Bethany drove down with us and flew back last Thursday. Having her here was such a blessing. I wish that she didn’t have to leave. But she has a family she has to “take care of”. :)

Some highlights and interesting moments during our first week in Vegas.

CAR RIDE WITH THE GIRLS (the kitties, Chauchy and Nermal)
Chauchy is on sedatives that were not strong enough. She cried almost the entire 6 hour drive. The ten minutes where she was quiet she was clawing and ramming her head into the front of the carrier. Fun, fun!

Nermal on the other hand was quiet besides the occasional threatening hisses, snorts, and growls. If you touched her carrier or came close to her carrier she would go ballistic and try to attack you. She’s precious.

MOVING IN

We are staying at the Meridian in room 228. Eric's company was kind enough to pay the rent, which I am so grateful for. Our studio apartment is fully furnished. It's very nice. I like how it's decorated. It has granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances, and a nice size balcony for relaxing. They have fun amenities to keep me busy during the day. I really like it here.

Some pictures of our apartment.

CHAUCHY & NERMAL MOVING IN

When we first arrive Nermal runs and jumps into the bathtub while growling. Her eyes are huge and they are peering over the edge of the bathtub. Bethany tries to go calm her down and steps towards the bathtub; Nermal lunges out of the tub trying to attack her. Bethany is scared of Nermal for the rest of the night. Nermal chased Eric twice and tried to attack me once. No one is allowed near her for the rest of the night because she'll kill you.

Can you imagine this sweet kitty wanting to rip you apart?

Chauchy on the other hand is hiding in the corner of the closet. Her nose is pressed up against the wall like she is in time out. The closet corner is her favorite place for the next couple days. Chauchy liked to cry very loud in the mornings till I would pick her up and bring her into bed with me. That went on for a few days. She was also very clingy and would follow me EVERYWHERE.

When she's asleep that's when I can accomplish things in peace. She isn't following me around crying wanting to be held or walking underneath my feet.

The girls didn't get along for a few days. I don't know why.
Each time they saw one another they would hiss. Thankfully they are doing fine now. They are the best little buddies again.

Nermal is pleasant and Chauchy isn't so needy. Yeah!

THE SAN FRANSICO WARD (a.k.a. INSANE fransico ward)
It was fast and testimony meeting which for them that means “lets talk about myself” time. Keep in mind that each testimony was 10-15 minutes long. . The first lady got up and says “ALOHA!” And the congregation shouts “ALOHA!” back. She says she is here to REPORT about how she is doing, health wise. The next lady told us about her health history. From her diabetic coma to her glaucoma., and how she needs to eat better, and she likes to eat. Another lady talked about how she likes to think about astronauts. None of the “testimonies” born were related to something spiritual or directed back to a testimony. They simply were long, boring, pointless stories. The last guy was my favorite. He walked up with papers in his hands and starts to preach like the pastors and ministers on T.V. He was the “Holy, Hallelujah, can I get an Amen?” preacher. The thing is, what he was saying wasn’t making any sense; it led nowhere. The bishop had to finally interrupt his “sermon” and tell him that it’s way past time and he needs to close. Talk about awkward. Everyone was uncomfortable. Needless to say we only stayed for sacrament. We will now ward hop.

WALKING TO THE STRIP AND EXPLORING THE HOTELS

We went to the high-end fashion designer stores. No one ever approached us and asked if they could help us. Is it that obvious that we can’t afford a pair of socks from their stores? Well, we were sweaty and in our exercise clothes. I thought we were rockin' it.

BETHANY CONQUERS FEAR OF NERMAL, & BECOME BUDDIES.
Well, when Nermal wanted to be friends.

Nermal making herself comfortable on Bethany's luggage. I tried kicking her off but since Bethany and Nermal are tight, Bethany let her stay.

BABY STEPPING TO DRIVING

SCARY! I don’t like driving in places I don’t know, especially busy areas. I was just glad to have my buddy with me. Especially when we thought we were getting on the highway.

WEIRDO AT WAL-MART

Some random guy who is about our age comes up to us and says, “I don’t eat meat because I’m a vegetarian. I go to KFC and say, ‘Just because you work here doesn’t mean you have to eat the meat.’ I don’t want to get into it.” I smile politely and respond, “I don’t eat at KFC either.” (my reasons being different)

He then goes on saying something about babies.

We hurry and walk away and he is yelling, “LADY! LADY! LADY! LADY!”

I turn around, and he shouts, “Good for you!”

WATCHING NERMAL DRINK FROM THE TOILET

She is doing this on a daily basis.
I don't even think she drinks from her water bowl.

Our little lady. Who doesn't love pee pee water?

BETHANY'S ALLERGIES

She was a trooper! Never complained once. Poor thing couldn’t breath and was continuously sneezing because of her allergies to the kitties. She still wanted to love on the girls regardless. Again, thank you dear friend!

More fun activities:

HOUSE HUNTING

GETTING LOCKED OUT OF APARTMENT...TWICE IN THE SAME DAY

SHOPPING. LOTS OF SHOPPING

RELAXING IN THE SAUNA

I am very very relaxed. Can you tell?

Cookies were usually our healthy and nutritious breakfast

I was very sad when Bethany had to leave. Now that she has left I have to make an effort to get out and find things to keep me busy. If not I’ll watch t.v. all day and get depressed. It gets lonely. So if anyone wants to visit me please do!

Bethany, thank you again from the bottom of my heart, for everything.
