Boyfriends, Spray Tans and the Spice Girls

I was lucky enough to get to spend Sunday and Monday with Sven (my boyfriend who was given this codname in the previous post). Which Means I spent the night with him, yay! I love when I get to spend the night with him. It's such a reassuring feeling falling asleep next to him knowing I get to wake up next to him as well. But enough wth the gushy stuff, on to the "Action"!

So Sunday we went for an early dinner at Coco's, which had a new menu, which is always a fun treat to stumble upon. Of course, I ended up not straying from my standard choices. But only because one of the 'new' items was a combination of my 2 favorite pasta dishes there, the Chicken Alfredo and the Stuffed Rigatoni (although I get it with the Alfredo sauce and not the marinara or meast sauces recommended). It was heaven people, HEAVEN! What a fantastical idea. It was so good I wish I was eating it right now.

We went back to Sven's place and watched some TV and then we watched the season finale of Alias, which was a real shocker. DAMN THEM and their stupid cliffhangers! Although, they definitely left me wanting more, so I guess their work is done, at least until next season.


The next day Sven took me to his work (a tanning salon) and he practice his spray tanning technique on me, as his work just got spray tanning and he wanted to practice ona couple of people before he started in on the paying clients. So of course I was his guinnea pig, not that I mind. Besides, now I am no longer blindingly white, horay! It actually turned out pretty well. I was pleasantly surprised. The only downfall to it is that you can't shower for 6hrs afterwards and the spray leaves you feeling gross.

After I was all sprayed, We went and had food at Red Robin, which was delicious. Then Sven drove me to Toy's R Us so that I could feed my toy collecting habit. Unfortunately, the selection was less than spectacular, so I left empty handed. Oh well.

After that, we went back to his place and I watched some tivo'd Golden Girls while he did some homework. And then we cuddled and wayched Best Week Ever, which was hilarity. The Tom Cruise and Rob And Amber bits were the best. "Boston Rob is so romantic, Love sounds so much better with No R's". That is good comedy people, good comedy! And then I came home and conked out on my bed.

Also this week, I discorved that my all time favorite band, The Spice Girls, may be reuniting for a charity gig that is to take place in July. Whike nothing is finalized yet, and rumors abound, I am hopeful it's true. I love the Spice Girls, they are the first band where I had to go out and buy all of their Cds and singles, their posters, toys, candy, concert tickets, etc, etc. I LOVE the Spice Girls. And because I do, here is a plug for all musical things Spice (go buy these!).

SPICE GIRLS:

Spice: The Spice-tastice debut album. Features the single that started it all, Wannabe. As well as the singles Say You'll be There, 2 become 1, Mama, and Who Do You Think You Are. (Mama/ Who do You Think You Are being a UK only double release).

Spice World: The outstanding follow up to Spice. Features the singles Spice Up Your Life, Too Much, Stop and Viva Forever (Viva Forever beinga UK only Release). It also features the songs used it their Pepsi campaign, Move Over (Generation Next) and Step To Me (which is only avaliable on the Japanese edition of Spice World.

Forever: The 3rd album and the first full album without Geri, and equally, in my opinion, spicy! Features the singles Goodbye, Holler and Let Love Lead the Way, as well as the planned singles Tell Me Why (an AWESOME song) and If You Wanna Have Some Fun.

GERI HALLIWELL:

Schizo-Phonic: Her First solo album, and quite the amazing one at that. Features the singles Look At Me, Mi Chico Latino, Lift Me Up and Bag It Up (the best song on the album, in my opinion).

Scream If You Wanna Go Faster: A rollercaoster ride of pure pop fun. It features Geri's take on It's Raining Men (her 1st single off of the album) and well as the singles Scream If You Wanna Go Faster and Calling

Passion: Geri's 3rd album due out June 6th. Features her hot first single Ride It, as well as the current single Desire. It's set to be Geri's best yet!

A Girl Like Me: Fun and fresh, it features the singles What Took You So Long, Take My Breath Away, We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight, and What I Am (with Tin Tin Out).

Free Me: A very different album than her Spice stuff, it has a more mowtown feel with a 60s flair. It suits Emma's voice very well. Features the singles Free Me, Maybe, I'll Be There, and Crickets Sing For Anna Maria.

Out Of Your Mind: Her collaboration with True Steppers and Dane Bowers. An awesome song. (not featured on her full album)

Victoria Beckham: Pure pop goodness. Features the singles Not Such An Innocent Girl and A Mind Of It's Own
