28th annual LSU Crawfish Boil in San Diego. So much fun. I ate and drank all day!! So as an experiment, I decided to not drink or eat starches for the last 4 days.

These are my findings :

1. Not drinking does absolutely nothing for me.
2. I don’t sleep better
3. I miss the enjoyment of a class of wine while I cook and eat.
4. I do not lose any weight because of not drinking  or no starches.

So in conclusion, my life suffers when I don’t have a glass of wine or a rice chip!!

Dances. Except for the Vegas bar and the Russian bars, none of the bars know all the dances. ” Lil, I will go over payroll if I schedule another dance class. Lil the dances are too difficult. ( for someone handicapped). Lil I have no real dancers. ”

So sick of hearing these excuses.

RIP Harambe the gorilla
http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/30/us/gorilla-shot-harambe/

After watching the video, I think the zoo had to kill the gorilla. But honestly , should the mom be charged with endangering her child? To listen to the description of the enclosure she must of left the child unattended for quite a while. As parents,  no one is perfect. But her lax parenting cost the life of this poor gorilla. Born in Captivity and then killed by humans. Very very sad.

Happy Memorial day.

A shout out to Austin! ” I just deposited my Austin dividend  check ” Bam! I am very thankful to all the bars but especially Austin today !

Two employees got fired in SD . Stupid is what stupid does. Of course Daniel said ” the curse of the calendar . One month down “.

A few years back when I did about 20 sessions in therapy , I learned that I use exercise as a coping mechanism . ” how bad could that be? Well recently a new store opened up in my neighborhood that offers B vitamin shots and IV therapy . I have gone twice this week. Once for two shots of various B and supplements and today for IV therapy . What would the therapist say about this ? Is this another coping issue? Who the f knows ? I just figure it can’t hurt to be extra healthy and hydrated !

Next weekend Memphis !

Savvy , Lee’s daughter and I at the calendar shoot last week . I love those kids !

Lee cartooned this photo. A  fun way to end the photoshoot.

Jackson is super sick today. I called in sick for him but he snuck back to take his PE swim exam. That kid is a dedicated student. When I picked him up ” well mom , on a good note the swimming seemed to temporarily clear my sinuses.”

Daniel and I are making real progress on playing the Dublin manager’s seminar. I am super excited!!

I had an interview with BUST magazine today. I was not at my best. I was coughing, doing twelve things at once. Hopefully , I made some sense.

2017 Calendar Photo Shoot

Dinesti’s log: ” Beyoncé sucks . Her concert didn’t bring us any customers. Billy Joel is the mother f shit!” So I am guessing Billy Joel fans love to drink .

The band Bobaflex made a selfie video at the Austin bar while watching our girls preform their song ” Bury Me with My Guns on “. Pretty cool if I do say so myself . And yes ” I did pick that song ! “

” NINJA stop sending me bikini butt pictures!” Monday starts our 2017 calendar photoshoot. ” Ninja you were already picked, I have seen your butt!.

This is funny now but not funny then. My gyno wanted me to get a biopsy and a few ultrasounds to make sure everything was fine. I went to the hospital for my two ultrasounds and Ninja’s mother was the receptionist. ” Oh you are my daughter’s boss. I am so excited that she made the calendar.” In my mind I am thinking, I can’t believe I am getting checked for cancer and I am now talking about Ninja and the damn Calendar.  Then I started thinking, Oh god will Ninja know if I have cancer before I do. ” Oh GOD .  No worries, all test came out perfectly, NO CANCER. But I did find out that I am one of those freaky women who may be able to have children until 60. I have 1 great kid. I am content with that!

I have no energy. ” Well Lil you obviously need B shots in your butt and acupuncture. ”  OK I did it so when does the energy come?

Calendar shoot for 2017 bikini calendar starts Monday in Vegas, I would say I am excited but Lee has all these highly stylized ideas for shots that I just know in my heart will be super hard to do with non models. OK let’s do it. I will definitely be sneaking some bailey’s into my coffee to get through those two days. 20 girls plus Lee .  As I learned today in the chinese acupuncture methodology, you can’t take from your savings account of energy and vitality and keep loaning to your checking account of energy and vitality or you will be empty.  So I will borrow from Lee’s account and sit back!

Calendar shoot for 2017 starts Monday. OH GOD it’s already taking up way too much time. Every year Lee wants to make it a very stylistic , original shoot. ” Dude these aren’t real models and we don’t even know which ones are truly photogenic.” This year I will just go along. Try to help out when I am needed but I know it will fall apart when the girls can’t do exactly what he wants. I guess I will make sure I have alcohol in my coffee for two days so I can make it through.

Busy busy day today. Daniel has taken some weird vacation. Really another vacation ? And you just moved into a new swanky sky rise apartment? I am sure the staff is still annoying him while on this impromptu get away. Good that makes me happy .

I went to acupuncture today. ” I have no energy. ”  I do not feel like I have any more energy after the 20 needles. I even got 2 b shots the other day. Who knows if any of this is working but I figure it can’t hurt and if I have faith it will work then I might as well try it.

 Lee and I with our potential new landlord Bruce Smith. Greatest defensive end of all time! And my favorite player of all time . My god my dream come true !

” Lil Cinco de Drinko and your heading to Virginia Beach ? My god you will be covered with drunk military guys .” Why thank you Daniel , I will be safe I promise .

Everyone thinks that the whole staff is scared of me but the reality is everyone is scared of Jeff, company lawyer . This week I knew something was up with Jeff. Between the obamacare filings and a few audits , Jeff is in paperwork hell . 

Daniel claims that we have netted the most in years the last few months . I will be the last to see this . 

( I fell off my own high heels down the ramp at the SD bar . Ramp not stairs . Oh and everyone saw . ” I am not filing a suit or asking for work and comp. I am just going to admit that my heels were too high and I couldn’t walk and talk at the same time .” 

Its been busy with work lately . I am enjoying that . VB here I come 

Michael Coleman, Excellent Job location scouting! Really thorough. We are so proud of him!

Heading to Virginia Beach on Thursday to see a location. Should be fun.

My son works with Autistic people through Special Olympics. I saw this video with Channing Tatum and it reminded me of Jackson.
