I had a great time in California with Mr. Nick. I just wish I wasn't PMSing!

Anyway, I flew into LA to meet him, and he was at the airport waiting (awww).  LAX is one weird airport. I guess I am just used to YVR. We picked up our rental car and went to our hotel. It was quite nice! Too bad the rooftop pool was closed the whole time we were there :( There was some wedding convention going on. We spent 3 days in Hollywood, but we didn't see the Hollywood sign!! We (or maybe I?) did some shopping, and went to Universal Studios.

I'm glad we got the FastPass at Universal Studios. We didn't really have to wait very long in line for anything. And we hit everything!

The day after we headed down to San Diego and we stopped in Santa Monica long the way. The drive was really pretty and scenic.  We stayed at some resort for the night that we booked through Priceline. I wouldn't have wanted to pay full price to stay there. IT was this resort where you could participate in water sports (no, not those ones, sickos), go to the spa, and rent boats. Too bad everything but the pool cost money. I was hoping to use the gym, but it would have probably cost me $20 - 30. I went into the pool for a bit instead. I'd like to get my fins back one day. I even laid out in the sun! That was nice! But not the faint tanlines that I got. I had packed sunscreen for some reason the bottle had come unscrewed at the last minute and I had to do some emergency repacking!

And we spent the last of our trip in Anaheim. We did the Disneyland thing, and it was dead enough that the lineups were about 10 - 15 minutes only!! The stroller parking was insane, still. I can see why people normally buy more than a one-day pass. I remembered Disneyland being so much bigger as a kid!! My friends don't believe me but It's a Small World is my favourite ride. The Haunted Mansion was cool, too. And so was Splash Mountain. I flew off my seat on that one since I had both hands in the air when the camera took our shot. It was really great that two of my friends happened to also be in California so the 4 of us did most of Disneyland together.

And then we had to come home :( I also got our flight wrong, and we had another hour to spare. Grr. Oops. I was going to go back to Agent Provocateur on the way home to try some stuff, but we ran out of time. that was definitely a blessing in disguise!

I'm glad I didn't get sick of Dr. Nick on this trip, and I'm also glad I didn't piss him off too much. I think we got on quite well!! At least there is talk of future trips. *L*

One thing I am a little embarrassed about doing is asking him to change the shirt he was originally going to wear at Disneyland. I didn't tell him why I was making the request. I just asked him if he had another shirt that he could wear, and when he said, "yes," I asked him if would change it. Being the nice guy that he is, he did. Anyway, the shirt was from his ex, and I didn't really want the shirt in our pictures, and I didn't want to spend the day with it either. I am okay with him wearing the shirt, otherwise -- as long as I am not reminded of her! But I don't even know anything about her.

Would most guys not buy their girlfriends Playgirl magazine? I kept asking Mr. Nick to buy me one, and he seemed to not like the idea at all -- which made me pressure him even more! MWUAHAHA He asked me if I'd buy him a Hustler, and I said yes. I bought some lesbian porn for an ex once. Anyway, he jokingly said he loved me too much to buy me one.

I was hoping that on this trip he'd tell me he loved me (I am so embarrassed to even admit to that), but it didn't quite happen. He said it takes him a long time to say these things anyway. Sometimes I think he looks as if he loves me. Sometimes I want to tell him I love him, but I usually just say "you're the best." BWAHAHAA

So for once, I am not glad to be home from vacation, but the only good thing is that I can get my eating back on track. I am so sick of greasy, salty food. I don't want another sandwich or salad for a long  time. And nothing should come from a deep fryer!!
