Jingle Bells Jingle Bells...Buy me a drink...




Meet the World's Greatest Wine-0..ha ha...I was looking through our honeymoon photos and thought I would share this one. We were at Venice Beach, California. The culture there is very different. There were a lot of panhandlers but instead of just asking for money it was like they all had a gimmick of sorts!
We came across this strappin' young lad singing


"Jingle Bells Jingle Bells Buy me a drink...buy me a drink cuz I like to drink..."

And I tell ya...it was funny. There was no stopping me adding a dollar to his cup just so I could take his photo for the scrapbook! Later on that day as I was looking through the digital camera of all the photos I had taken, I zoomed in and asked Dan to look at what I was seeing. Was this "bum" wearing brand new Nike Air shoes? And hmmmm his jeans really aren't torn and ratty are they? Nah, they look pretty new...and that Lakers tank can't really be cheap now can it?

That is when I decided panhandling must pay well! Either that or he was a rich eccentric old man who had nothing better to do than hang out at Venice Beach all day!

Well that brings us to Tuesday. We had a long weekend due to Thanksgiving here in Canada. Glad to have a short work week ahead! Oh hey, I forgot to mention that yesterday I went to the gym - my personal trainer was there and wondered what had happened to me. LOL...I still have like 6 more sessions paid with her. I told her I was going to do a couple weeks of cardio and then her and I would get together to implement the weight training to it. I seen on the new fall gym schedule that they offer belly dancing classes - I might have to check those out and I still really want to try aqua-aerobics.

Okay enough mindless babble...I gotta start working!!!
