It’s Not Always Sunny in San Diego (or Vegas)

July 22, 2015 By Laura

It’s been one of those weeks.

I’m not really sure what day it is…Β 

I started the week in San Diego, now I’m in Vegas, and I’m driving back to San Diego tonight. Β What’s more confusing is that this weekend in San Diego it POURED down rain. Β I thought it wasn’t supposed to rain in paradise?! Β (Actually this is a good thing since California is having a drought.)

It was also Pride weekend, so I watched the wet hot mess from a bar.

What’s even funnier is that when we got to Vegas it was raining. Β We took advantage of a break in the clouds for an afternoon walk.

The sky is so pretty in the dessert after a storm!

Needless to say, it’s an interestingΒ WIAW. Β Check it out and then link up withΒ JennΒ and then check out everyone else’s delicious eats!

Breakfast:

I had theΒ usual morning cocktailΒ andΒ morning sludge.

Breakfast was a little #yolkpornΒ β€ͺaction on top of an open faced BLT and smashed avocado. Β And a side of cantaloupe – they’re so sweet right now!

Lunch:

We spent the day working on getting the last of the stuff out of Vegas’ house in Vegas. Β With everything being packed awayΒ we had to resort to fast food lunch. Β I was actually pleasantly surprised by my grilled chicken salad from Wendy’s!

The chicken was a bit salty, but the lettuce was fresh and the blue cheese and strawberries were good.

Snack:

There were nuts, a Quest bar, and a beer (or two… or three…) but I didn’t stop for pics. Β Vegas was working me like a slave driver. πŸ˜‰

Dinner:

Sometimes dinner isΒ wine, popcorn, and M&Ms at the move theater after a day of work. Β I did Vegas a solid and agreed to go see Ant-Man.

(It was actually good… but don’t tell her I just admitted that.)

    I think it’s extremely unlikely I’ll see Antman, especially since my spouse won’t make me :-). Only because he has no idea what it is, I’m sure.

    #YolkPorn is my FAVORITE hashtag!!! The combo with cantaloupe sounds so interesting, now I want to try it!

    If it’s any consolation, I never have any idea what day it is! And I would kill for some rain right about now. It’s been over 98 degrees constantly since I arrived in Italy and I’m DYING.

      Oy… you should come to San Diego! It’s 75. Every day.

      A crappy A/C is a good reason to make it about you! I couldn’t believe that the house we moved into had no heat or air… but I couldn’t do that back home!

    So weird about all the rain! (But good for California, for sure!) I’m liking the looks of your dinner πŸ˜‰

    We were supposed to get that rain and it never came. I was so disappointed.

      Looks like we’ll have LOTS of chances this summer. Crazy El Nino!

    Does Jimmy John’s count as fast food? I sometimes get that when I can’t leave the office for lunch and didn’t bring anything.

    • Laura says

      July 27, 2015 at 1:21 PM

      Jimmy John’s is a little too good to be fast food. LOL! Kidding… wish we had them here!

    Chipotle is our favorite fast food in a pinch. But that salad from Wendy’s does actually look good! M&Ms, popcorn, and wine for dinner sound like a much needed reward after a day of hard work!

  10. Maureen says

    July 22, 2015 at 8:14 AM

    Can you send some of that rain about 5 hours North? It’s been so hot & gross here….then the AC crashed. I definitely agree that wine and popcorn can count as dinner once in awhile!

    July 22, 2015 at 8:31 AM

    ooh ‘i love a good runny yolk! yum yum yum. I want some now, actually.
    and yes, we’re adults – popcorn (or ice cream, fill in the blank) for dinner sometimes is exactly what we need πŸ™‚

      It’s the best part of being a grown up!

    Wow Wendy’s… sometimes ya just never know with fast food salads.

  13. Pip {Cherries & Chisme} says

    July 22, 2015 at 8:48 AM

    WOW that is a lot of rain! It looks a bit like Buenos Aires in a storm, everything stops. No buses, no cabs, nothing. At it’s a 100% legit excuse for being late for work πŸ˜‰
    I could do with one of those dinners today… I know what you mean! Hope your confusion sorts out soon.

    • Laura says

      July 27, 2015 at 1:54 PM

      It was crazy – especially since people here never see rain. They were fascinated. πŸ™‚

    I didn’t even know it could rain in Vegas.My hubs was there last week for poker and it was like 110 degrees. It’s rained a ton here in DC this summer so I don’t have to water my plants πŸ™‚

      I heard the East coast is getting pummeled! People back home are posting constant flooding pics. Yuck!

  15. Liz says

    July 22, 2015 at 10:57 AM

    Sometimes you just need M&Ms, Popcorn, and wine. πŸ™‚

    Great eats:) I haven’t seen ant man..I have to say I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews about it. Glad to hear you liked it…And jealous of your theater food! I love movie popcorn…

      It isn’t going to win an Oscar, but it was a really cute movie!

    If I have a Starbucks near, I’ll get their protein box, if not, Subway all the way!

    Wendy’s salads aren’t too bad! One of my go-to fast food options if I’m not feeling a burger or something more traditional fast food-ish.

    #yolkporn is growing on me. Not the hashtag but the actual runny yolks. I used to have a huge celeb crush on Paul Rudd when he was in Clueless. He would be my main reason for wanting to see Antman. But I doubt I’ll see it in the theatre. Probably gonna wait for it to be released on Netflix.

    • Laura says

      July 27, 2015 at 2:01 PM

      It was a good theatre show just because you can see it in 3-D, but it’ll be good on Netflix too. Why are movies SO expensive?!

  20. Mary Legare Whaley says

    Sounds like to dominated the move! That breakfast looks awesome…minus the cantaloupe. I just can’t get into melon. I’ve always viewed it as filler fruit, mostly because fruit salads are always 90% honeydew + cantaloupe and 10% good fruit.

    The last movie I saw in a theater was Black Swan. I kid you not. I don’t like to spend the money. And honestly, movie previews rarely catch my attention. I’m more enticed by a TV series than a movie.

    My fast food go-to is always Subway. My lame meal of choice is the foot long veggie sub. No meat. No cheese. It’s basically a hefty tomato sandwich with lettuce, black olives, banana peppers, pickles, and spicy mustard. On wheat. YUM.

      Sounds like “you” dominated the move… I hate that I can’t edit a post.

        July 27, 2015 at 2:02 PM

        That shit drives me nuts too!

    • Laura says

      July 27, 2015 at 2:04 PM

      I’m really not a movie person either. I did see Black Swan in theaters. And Les Mis. I think the most recent was Wild with Vegas. I hated it.

    I heart avocados so much and I could eat eggs everyday and literally do. The yolk is seriously my favorite part. πŸ™‚ Glad California finally got some rain – it’s been a heck of a drought they’ve been experiencing over there! Have a great weekend Laura! -Iva
