Fresh Angeles: April 2010

I Played PROJECT NATAL... And LOVED it!!!

(Check out me & my new BFF Jessica Lange on the 1s & 2s.
We are Rockin' it... No?)

I went to a Special Event at an Art Gallery this week.
But it wasn't to look at art.

It was to get a sneak peak at PROJECT NATAL the newest, hottest thing in gaming coming out this Holiday Season.
Now normally, I bring my kids to these types of events, but every now & then parents need to step out alone to P-A-R-T-Y!!!

So there we were, my husband & I. Hanging out, eating appetizers, sippin' on some drinks, playin' the Project Natal. There was a DJ & it was held at a really rad spot.
We felt like we did when we were just dating again. Young & carefree!
OK, I really need to get out more...

Let me just say that this game is SO SWEET. I actually BECAME the controller. Me, Myself & I. My whole body was read by the system & I became the person inside of the game. It actually followed every move I made! Even when I did the robot, guess what it did???? THE ROBOT!!! Cool, Right?

Their mission is to "Change Living Rooms Forever". Well, I say Mission Accomplished! It gives you a real workout too. I was sweating just by playing a game or 2. So my next task is to get an XBOX 360 for the family. Can't believe we don't have one yet! (Embarrassing) And you should too, becuz this Amazing thing is coming out just in time for the holiday season. Woot! And I know my kids are gonna ask for it. Shoot, I know my husband is gonna ask for it.

* Thank You to my XBox Peeps. Thanks for inviting us to your SUPER-FUN PARTY!

Hair Boot Camp w/ Got Milk?

Having long hair can be a challenge... I know because I've pretty much had it all of my life. I like the way it looks. And I think it's the best look on me. I know how important it is to take care of it. I know how health comes from the inside out. So what you eat & drink is just as important as any fancy shampoos & conditioners that you may use. (Hence why MILK would do an event at a Beauty Salon... It ALL ties in (Aha Moment! lol.)

So having all of this hair for all of this time, I think I've got a pretty good idea on how to do it. One thing however that I haven't mastered is the "BLOW-DRY" I have actually wanted to go to Beauty School for awhile now... Not to become a hair-dresser, but to learn how to do that "Thing" that they do.

Thankfully I have friends in cool places! My Girls at Toma Leche? (Shot Out to Angelina, Elizabeth & Tatum) were putting on an event at a local salon in West Hollywood. But these aren't your average friends, and this wasn't your average Hair Salon...

We underwent HAIR BOOT CAMP at POINT DE VUE Salon & I actually survived! Sounds Scary doesn't it? It was a little intimidating, but we had a master leading the way... A-List Celebrity Stylist , Muriel. We got to hang with Muriel, her husband & a few of the stylists that work at the salon. (Shot out to Betsy & Janice) They also treated us to scalp massages & eyebrow waxing. So it was a much needed pampering session for this mama! Thank you to everyone who had a hand in the day!
I'm just so glad that my family was there to share it with me. (Shot out to Tracey, Becky & Shelley)
I have learned the "secrets"of the BlowDry, at HAIR BOOT CAMP... now I just need to go home & practice the new techniques.
Wish me luck!

Here are some of the photos from the event! Enjoy!
