Eerily quiet the last couple of days. Bars did really well for the halloween week. I am taking a very long breathe before starting all this international travel. I hit Nashville for a couple of days in a few weeks. That’s really all I have right now.

Things are about to get very busy . Looks like Liverpool will come up before Fukuoka , Japan .

We sighed a 12 city deal in the UK. Outstanding . We are rocking and rolling ! First college interview tonight !

Emergency averted ! New Orleans Bar is fine . The New Orleanians  thought hurricane Nate ( tropical storm Nate ) was just a rainy day . Thank god ! Dodged a bullet . Last night I get a text message from an OKC regular complaining about service . I spoke with Amber the manager . This morning he sends me another message . “ oh sorry , I am in San Antonio”. Sorry Amber !

Tommy and I had a great day on Saturday . We ran the Pacific Beach Fest 5k . Beach running is super hard by the way . Then we went to the beer garden to drink our complimentary beers and listen to Santana style music . Great great day ! Thank you Tommy .

Last night Jackson and I went to see IT . So fun . The kid will be 18 at the end of the month . Honestly since we can’t go back , I will now embrace our future . Love that kid .

A few more wonderful pictures from my birthday . Also my back up Rubber pants outfit for my birthday came in Saturday . As I struggled to get them on I had a flashback from college . I texted my friend Joyce “ did I try to wear a rubber dress in college ?” She sent a loud YES as Confirmation that I was just as nuts then as I am now !

Omg ! My first birthday party since I was 7. Crazy is an understatement . Only 50 once . 51 will be the year of Glamping for my birthday !

Thanks to everyone who flew out to celebrate with me . Thank you so much !! Words can not express how much I love everyone . Thank you Dinesti , glen , chantel , and SD staff for making it all come together ! Thong birthday Accomplished !

Freaking 50 years old . I have dubbed 50 the year of the thong . But after this I must gain a little weight when I need some Ass fat to transfer to my face !

RIP Hugh Hefner.  www.yahoo.com/news/hugh-hefner-founder-playboy-dead-031914304.html

Love him or hate him, he lived life on his own terms.  A pioneer. A mogul. A free spirit. Now I will never be able to meet Hugh in the Grotto.

” Mom are you technically a senior citizen ?” God damn it NO. I think that’s 62.

San Antonio, Fort Worth, Austin and Denver getting their staffs to run/walk the Susan G Komen Breast Cancer races . Bars did well this weekend especially Oklahoma ! Holla !

Calendar’s came out . 25 years and I finally got a half page at the end of the calendar . Not in a bikini but hey I made the calendar !

Trying to get dates set for the openings of Fukoaka and Liverpool . Let’s do it !

Laugh it up people ! When I am in the geriatric Sports Illustrated magazine , I will have the last laugh .

i just received this from a friend wishing me a happy early birthday .

” Hey this was Jerry  when he was 50″

“Dear Miss Lovell , As you ascend in years you should start looking for your assisted living arrangements .” You are f kidding me ! Let me tell you what the 50 is the new 40 looks like .

Conversation with Kevin this morning :

Me: Kev , I am so excited to get my MRI results today . You know at 50 you have to get a mandatory Colonoscopy ?

Kevin : of I have already had two

Me: did you lose ten pounds ?

Yup this is my life .

bars doing so well ! Bam . Momma needs to pay for assisted living

signed a big deal to open multi locations in the UK. Let’s go Liverpool

9/11 So much news about the hurricanes that it took me part of the day to remember 9/11. A thought goes out to all the victims and survivors.

I heard from Joanna and Scooter this morning who own the franchises in Tampa, Daytona , Panama Beach , and Destin. So far everyone is safe and sound.

What absolute craziness.

Today I went swimming at my local gym. I almost feel guilty living in San Diego. Everyday is beautiful. Heading to Fort Worth tomorrow. ” Mike B is it hot as HELL or Hot as HELLLLL?”

SAINTS LOST. Damn.

We are filming a training video in Fort Worth.( Chantel, Lee, and I)  ” Will I stink or be great?” Only the universe knows!

Having had to evacuate during Katrina , I feel this pang of fear for all these people . Harvey was awful and affected so many people we know . Now Irma has just destroyed so many of these little islands and soon to hit Florida . We have been planning to do a benefit at all the bars for the hurricane relief funds . I just saw an ad for the ASPCA that made me so sad . All these people evacuate and don’t take their pets . Before Katrina , I decided to take my son and fly to NY , 3 days prior . Our neighbors were staying . Their thoughts were that the hurricane was not going to be as bad as the news was broadcasting . I made the mistake of leaving them with our guinea pigs and turtles . I was not allowed to enter my home for a full month because the national guard had imposed a quarantined area . When I got home there were my pets dead in their cages .  The neighbors had stayed through the storm but were forced to evacuate and they left our pets . I wished they had at least released them in the park . It’s my fault ultimately . I never told jackson the truth . Seeing those little creatures dead in their cages because of my own casual attitude , I feel even deeper about helping all these abandoned animals . I am going to donate to the ASPCA and do what ever I can to help .

I don’t even know what to say to this story :  http://metro.co.uk/2017/09/05/mans-tinder-date-gets-stuck-upside-down-in-window-trying-to-grab-her-own-poo-6905865/

My eyes just opened to an email ” a new NY neighbor is complaining about noise “. We have been there just shy of 25 years . Why on god green’s earth do you move in right near many bars ?

Bars doing very well . Only bar not doing well is Nola . I need new strategies there .

Gerting a fucking MRI on the weekend . Getting old sucks . Aqua aerobics will probably be my new exercise if I need surgery .
