#32: I'm a Bit of a Geocacher

If you've never heard of Geocaching don't worry. Up until two weeks ago, I hadn't either. But it's actually quite fun!

Geocaching is like a world wide scavenger hunt. People hide little tubes, tupperwares or ziplocks known as "cache" in various geographical points all over the globe. Inside, there is a log - that you sign upon finding. There can also be goodies or trackable items that you have to carry on to another cache.

So any way, you find these cache and log them online. There's no prize or anything, but it IS quite satisfying to find that little log.

Today, I went geocaching on my lunch break. Last weekend we visited "The Sloth, one of Seven deadly Sins".

Here's the description: One of Seven to be placed. Easy to get to. Maybe not so easy to find. Great Location for learning. This is one of my favorite places to take the kids or see a lazer light show at night. No bushwacking at all.

Hint: If you had a time machine and went back in time. You would not want to run into this. Related to the Armadilos family.

So, we realized that it was the big dinosaur next to the museum off US1.

But we searched for 30 minutes and came up short. Today, we went back with another strong clue and wouldn't you know within 3 minutes, we found it. Great find. Lots of fun.

I planted a cache at my job along with my geocaching crew, "D@be$tgeocachers" and hope to put one up around my neighborhood to.

Hope it inspires you to try. It's so much fun! But get a really good compass or download the app on your phone. Otherwise it's a mission. LOL

#31: I'm addicted to Cirque Du Soleil

Photo number thirty-one of Operation 365: I'm addicted to Cirque Du Soleil.

For my birthday this year, my mom gave me and my boyfriend tickets to see Kooza - a performance by Cirque Du Soleil.

It was the most amazing experience of my life.
The music was beautiful, the make up was stunning, the outfits were incredible and the stunts were phenomenal. I swear my jaw was on the floor the whole time. Amazing. I laughed, I cried, I gasped for breath.

If you haven't seen any of their performances, you should consider checking it out.

So, anyway, the merchandise at these events are outrageously expensive. We searched for a while during intermission, but refused to pay $90 for a shirt. So we grabbed a DVD and headed for checkout.

Then I saw these really cool coffee cups! They were only $5 each! So we snagged the last two and decided that our new "bucket list" would be to start a collection of Cirque Du Soleil cups.

So we plan on going to different shows around the state: Vegas, California and even in Florida. I even got a piggy bank specifically to save up for ticket money. $45 later, I'm almost there!

Photo number thirty of Operation 365: Cheesecake is my favorite dessert.

Just say the word cheesecake, and the fat girl inside of me starts to drool.

I love food... in fact I love almost ALL food. But cheesecake is not just regular food. It's the food of the Gods... for real for real.

So it's no surprise that one of my favorite places to go is the Cheesecake Factory. If you are one of my friends, who likes cheesecake and has never been here... we can no longer be friends.

Like Baskin Robbins 30-some-odd flavors, the Cheesecake Factory has a plethora - that's right, a plethora - of cheesecake assortments. I stole them off the menu... which one's your favorite? I personally have a hard time resisting the caramel turtle.

* Original
* Fresh Strawberry
* Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake
* 30th Anniversary Chocolate Cake
* White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle
* Ultimate Red Velvet Cake
* Godiva Chocolate
* Fresh Banana Creme
* Adam's Peanut Butter Cup
* White Chocolate Caramel Macadamia Nut
* Lemon Raspberry
* Dulce De Leche Caramel
* Chocolate Coconut Creme
* Tiramisu
* Chocolate Mousse
* Vanilla Bean
* Chocolate Tuxedo
* Kahlua Cocoa Coffee
* Pineapple Upside Down
* Chocolate Raspberry Truffle
* Dutch Apple Caramel Streusel
* Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
* Wild Blueberry White Chocolate
* Low Carb
* Low Carb With Strawberries
* Key Lime
* Caramel Pecan Turtle
* Brownie Sundae
* Snicker's Bar
* Carrot Cake
* Oreo

Whew... That's a lot of freaking cheesecake. So... how many of you are craving some now. LOL. Sorry!!!

#29: I'm Unbelievably, Absurdly, Inconceivably, Out of Control in Love.

Photo number twenty-nine of Operation 365: I'm unbelievably, absurdly, inconceivably, out of control in love.

Yes, yes, I know. Everyone is tired of seeing me posting about how incredible my boyfriend is and how much I love him.

But you know what?

I DON'T CARE!!!

I'm yelling it from the rooftop!!!

It's amazing how every day you can find one more thing about someone that makes you just a hair more insane about them. I'm completely head over heels for this boy.

It's funny, because I finally found someone who is a mirror image of myself. We laugh, we joke, we finish each others sentences. It's 100% meant to be. And to be honest... I can't see me living my life any other way.

This is... the HAPPIEST... I have been... my ENTIRE life.

Thanks babe... I love you so much!

I'm back!!

11:54 AM by Laura
So after a few facebook stalkers and pokes from friends... the 365 blog has been resurrected.

As promised, since 20+ people liked my status today, I've decided to continue on my blog. I'm not gonna start from one again since I don't want to get rid of the archive... so, I'm continuing where I left off.

I actually feel really good about this, because I feel like my life is on a great path right now. I've got a lot of opportunities ahead of me, and I'd love to share them with everyone.

Hope you all enjoy!
