I made it! I havent been out except for last night! Leaving Memphis was pretty close to perfect *as in how I wanted it to go*! I spent my entire last night with Lindsay and Britt stopped by! So the next morning I got up and got ready and Britt, Lindsay, and Chris came over and sent me off! :) Im so glad Chris came by! He gave me all of the amazing hugs I needed! Darling you give like the best hugs in the world! lol! So then I headed to the airport with my brother and Lindsay and we saw Ben Sines and Wes Burrow, but I dont think they know who I am, so I didnt say anything lol. *plus I looked totally nasty bc my hair was soaken wet!* So I got to my gate and had to wait a freakin hour b4 we got to board. ugh! Then I flew for like 2 hours or so and landed in Pheonix and omg those faggots. We had to wait in the plane an extra 45 mins to an hour b4 we could even take off!! But its cool bc I read my sex and the city book and seriously almost finished it! :) Its really good, sad, and disturbing! I love it! Some guy in his 40s sat across the aisle from me and talked to me about how he and his wife love sex and the city and used to watch it every sunday! I was like dude thats awesome i love that show its my favorite! and he was like yea everything they say is true, so u should pay attention if u want to grow up in the real world. Take it from me. So I think that really scared me. I dont want the world to be as cruel and unsettling as it is in sex and the city. What a depressing thought. Oh and you know how in the show Mr. Big is just Mr. cool suave attractive sometimes sweet and romantic awesome guy? In the book hes just a flat out egotistical self-involved asshole. I really hate him in the book, I hate Carrie too. Shes a bitch *in the book*. In fact, I dont like any of the characters, yet I cant stop reading lol. Its so intriguing to read about all these peoples sexual escapades. lol! It can be really funny! When I finish it Ill have a lot of it on this. So anyways I FINALLY made it here at like almost midnight in Tennessee or something crazy. I wanted to call everyone, but it was getting late and I was tired and had to eat and my nanny wanted to be with me so Id rather call them when I can actually talk. Britt and Lindz, dont worry, you will both be receiving phone calls today/tonight! Sitting on the plane made me think of Elizabethtown and made me smile. I cried once, but only once. I think I needed to get it out of my system. I dont want to leave sad ya know. Landing in LA was spectacular. I have never seen a place more beautiful and amazing. And now, its home. I was greeted by lights that stretched as far as the eye could see, my nannys smiling face, traffic *yes!! I actually like traffic sometimes lol*, perfect weather, and 2 fireworks shows driving home on the freeway. Disneyland has the nightly at 9:30 PM and I think the Angels won their baseball game bc they had fireworks going off at Angel Stadium. When we finally got home, my nanny opened her garage to reveal the most beautiful automobile I had ever seen in my life~my new GEORGE!!! He is sooooooooooooooooooo gorgeous! I wish u all could see how great he is!!!!! He is bright shiny red, very sporty, has a dark black awesome top he just looks great!! I cant wait to drive him today! Hes all mine! yay! :) And wow did my nanny kick ass at preparing her house *it is my most favorite house in the entire world*! She got new furnature in the den which looks awesome! And wow, my room.....SWEEEEEEEET!!! Its soooooo romantic and classic and beautiful! I cant even describe how amazing it looks. I walked in and couldnt breathe. Ive never seen a more beautiful bedroom. And its mine! yay!!! :) Im just so excited!! I cant wait until Britt and Bre come out and visit me! You guys will love it!!! So I guess thats it, Ill update again tonight! But have a great day everyone!!!!
