Happy birthday Jackson!! My son turned 16 today. So so proud of him. Samurai Pie is making him pizza for tonight. wow 16!!

Fantasy fest starting to pick up!!! I told Dinesti and Daniel to start sending wild pictures so I can post them. Go Key West!!

Watch this ; fox5sandiego.com…police-block-streets-in-gaslamp-district-after-shooting.  Shooting that closes your hotel down , go to Coyote Ugly to drink !

Pinky one of our regional managers is in town . Poor guy ” hey come to boxing class with me . This class was a strength and conditioning class . Omg so hard . This is labeled ” things you do with your boss when she is a psycho”  I am going to be in crazy good shape by Christmas !

Heading to Fort Worth, I think this weekend . Heading to New Orleans in two weeks . And my baby is turning 16 next week. My baby is growing up .

” Lil I have something to tell you. The truck got a little vandalized. Looks like someone took a baseball bat to the fender and side.” Oh jeez please call Kevin so I don’t have to. He’s going to flip out.

May sign deal with Montreal in a few weeks. Getting quotes for Ft Worth. Things are going quite well. Started a new boxing class. Feeling good these days

” Lil supposedly someone slipped on sidewalk near NYC bar. They are suing us, store next door, city of NY and I am sure anyone else they could think of.” Let me guess when the insurance company does its due diligence , the person who is suing all of us will have been the plaintiff in about 100 other ridiculous lawsuits ? Hmmm but don’t worry the insurance company will settle just to save time and money . It’s sickening .

Nashville bar isn’t just beating everyone they are crushing all the bars. So many years the San Antonio bar was on top. Marsha get ready to get back in the game !!!

imageThe Color Run in San Diego ! For a good charity , battered women and children .

Nashville is just crushing everyone ! Great job ! Heading to San Antonio today . Hot yoga with Marsha in the morning .

How would you describe your business? If it was a work of art, music etc what piece would it be?( question from franchise entertainment magazine)  Coyote Ugly would be a Jalepeno Popper. When you eat one it’s spicy and your mouth is tingling but you keep eating them and you drink beer while you are eating them. You can’t stop yourself. Might not be a Dali or a Beethoven but I love me some Poppers!!

San Antonio starting to come back alive. Heading to Los Angeles tomorrow to revisit a spot I liked. Heading to San Antonio Sunday for a quick trip. Work is gearing back up.

I am about to watch a documentary called ” Finder’s Keepers”. A man losing his foot in an airplane crash. This other man buys a grill at auction when he comes home he finds the foot in the inside of the grill. They start fighting over who owns the foot. It becomes a media sensation. So wacky I have to watch it.

My gratitude tonight is to my son , his dad and me. I went to open house night at his high school and met all of his teachers. Incredibly honoring to hear so many nice things about your child. He is such a good human being.I know I am not mother Theresa and his dad is not getting nominated for Good Samaritan of the year award but we seem to have raised a good kid.

Next gratitude is to my sister. After we lost our mom she took my mom’s dog in. “Liliana please take this fucking dog.” Nope . The dog was recently diagnosed with  dementia and he has to be put  down. I know that it will be hard for her not necessarily because she loved the dog but because my mom loved the dog. ” Coco you had a good run. Mom and dad are waiting for you in the after life.”

Finally the Saints won!!!. And to beat Daniel’s team made it all sweeter!

So yesterday I did my first triathlon sine the half ironman in New Orleans ( April). God I am out of shape. As per usual I came in close to last. I finished but I struggled on the run. I didn’t tell my coach I had signed up because I didn’t want to hear his shit or feel bad if I backed out. Regardless he was at the finish line when I finished. ” Liliana what were your goals today and did you achieve them?” You honestly want to know my goals?    1. to finish , Yes accomplished  and 2. Pass really heavy people, yes accomplished. I know that sounds horrible. But so many people pass me that I would see a heavy set person and make it a goal to pass them. ( by the way heavy set people are not bad cyclists). This morning I woke up tired and I decided to change it up and sign up for yoga. I went to the yoga class and a guy was there.

Guy: ” oh I love yoga. I get so much out of it.”

Me:  ” which girl got you to join?”

Guy: ” No I do it for me”

Me: ” Repeat, which girl got you to join.”

Guy: ” Fine,  it was a group of girls that my friend and I saw coming to the class . So we decided to join. By the way,   tight white yoga pants become see through when you sweat.”

LMAO. So funny. By the way yoga today was harder then the triathlon.

Bars did alright this weekend. Starting to get in the architectural possibilities for the new Ft Worth spot!!! Exciting! Justin saw the space in Wales that might get signed. So fun. ” Universe I want a Coyote Ugly in Wales!” Done. Ask and you shall receive.

IMG_6341Lee is fighting hard for Reno. Right now the lease isn’t signable. we will see what happens. Bam Ft Worth starting to roll forward. Justin is heading our booth in Birmingham England today. He has quite a few international companies interested in Licensing. the work world is good. And hot damn I passed my written California driver’s exam!

Personal life sucks but business is awesome!

image  Thank you Jill. When my mother was alive she always sent crazy gifts for my birthday and Christmas . Of course she would first borrow money then purchase the crazy gifts . Jill decided to try and replicate my mother’s craziness . ” good try Jill !” I love the Star Trek magnetic salt and pepper shakers . And how I survived my life without the rain visor bonnet is beyond me! Lol

Happy birthday to me!! I woke up! That’s a good start . At my age waking up and being able to go to the bathroom without help is a true testament to a healthy life !

What great things am I doing on my birthday ? Well while I was mocking my exhusband for having to retake his road test in California I looked at my own license and realized it expired today . I now have to take the written test tomorrow at the DMV. I failed the first practice test . Oh brother

A lot going on in Coyote land . Justin possibly pulling several groups ; Montreal, Malta, London, and Wales. I love all those places .

Ha!  My ancestry.com DNA results came back. My son is very proud of being part Italian ( his dad’s side). Low and behold who is also Italian! Lol. So tonight for fun I made an italian meal and we joked about ” Our People”. Kind of crazy that they match your DNA with people in their database. Who knew I have a  few cousins in Naples, Italy.? A ton of 3rd cousins that I recognized from my mom’s Colombian side. And wow the name Escobar came up. ” Jackson guess what ? We aren’t just related to Colombian coffee pickers but we have a 3rd/4th cousin with the last name Escobar. If your going to be Colombian then why not be distantly related to the biggest drug cartel leader in history.”

Good news is that we signed the Ft Worth Lease. Hopefully this will be completely signed by both parties soon so we can start rolling!!! I woke up today in an awesome mood. I have since then F up emails. Broke some plates. Forgot about an eye appointment. Really I am Fucking things up right and left. And it’s only 10:30.

Cross fingers signing a new lease in Texas tomorrow!!!  In regards to an alternate   project, Lee and I are checking out a couple of spots in Los Angeles. That would be a great project , not far from home.

I received a message this morning from Jackson’s school saying that the school had been put on Police Lockdown. I was starting to freak out until I found out that someone was calling and issuing threats so they locked down 8 schools in the district. When Jackson got home he said that the rumor around school was that some kids called it in to get out of classes. Over 17 that could be a terrorist act. Might even be jail time. Not smart.

“An Egyptian billionaire’s offer to buy an island for refugees is closer to becoming reality.” Interesting story.

So I went out with Mac last night . First we ate a pound of red meat which he chased with Macallan 18 year and I chased with a bottle of red wine. Then we went back to the Coyote and drank Sake bombs. This morning I received an email from Mac asking if I liked one of the auditioning girls from last night? Really? I woke up today with a note to myself to watch a documentary recommended by Mac on The Bush’s ( Yup George Bush’s family) masterminding the Kennedy assassination. LOL.
