at what happened this week good week yes it is bad week oh no becca tobin all right i'm excited
to share this one um it was just a week of ups and downs you know it was a roller coaster ride
i moved this week which can be a bitch but it is always a bitch and you think you're so prepared
and you do all the little like packing tricks and by the end i was throwing like my dog in the same
box as my blender so i'm still alive is the one question well this has to do with my dog so the
good part of my week is that i moved i love my place and i read that book the art of tidying up
oh everyone's reading that book holy crap changed my life i i threw everything away except like a
hairbrush toothbrush and a pair of underwear but i my apartment is immaculate here's the bad part
of my week so my dog went from we were in a house and now we're in a building and wait what kind of
dog do you have she's a have a poo that's not even a real dog what's the have a part it's an
emoticon it's a havanese poodle mix what's a havanese it's a great little white fluffy friendly
dog and she's amazing yes i almost gave her away after this but i'm keeping her because she's so
damn cute okay so um you know i move in and i'm very cautious of leaving her alone because she
can bark but i had to go to yoga because my ass is so big right now that i can barely zip my jeans
and i'm like hey big asses are in now yeah people get implants to have bigger butts no i don't need
that i because you know what comes with a big ass is like eight chins and like not all people can
just know it's like no i'm not that girl i look like spongebob square pants if i gain three pounds
so i'm like orly my dog i love you so much i'm leaving you for two hours please just keep your
shit together i get out of yoga i think i get a little cocky i go to the container store no you
did not don't divert yes i did i'm like she's fine she's totally fine i get an email from the
manager of the building oh gosh leasing office whatever she's like we had a complaint that your
dog has been barking all day first of all all day is quite a an exaggeration right two effing hours
at 11 a.m okay who's even home at that point get a job people with time to email leasing offices
and tell them that my dog is barking so my instinct is i'm packing up i'm moving out these
people aren't accepting me that's my go-to out of the squad i'm out of the squad i don't care
keep my stupid deposit i'm out but that's not the smart adult decision that i ended up coming to
I take a breather. I take a five which is what I have to do a lot of the time pause
Pause and i'm like, you know what i'm gonna kill them with kindness something i've never been very good at
I've never done that once. No. Well about that
To add to my low point of the week. This is why I was low
I spent a hundred effing dollars on macaroons to give to my neighbors
And a picture of my dog printed out saying dear new neighbors
please don't hate my mommy i'm just getting adjusted to my new home so i was like chris
kringle down my hallway passing out macaroons trying to like put the no underneath her door
meanwhile i just shelled out thousands of dollars on this move and you know when you've spent so
much money that you're like i'm gonna reel it in this week i'm gonna rein it in and then it's like
a hundred dollars at the macaroon place oh wow cheers to that girl that was a cheers that's a
terrible i didn't even put orange juice in this champagne today just straight i don't know she's
taking a shot yes jack good week bad week all right so my good week revolves around food
obviously worse carbs so more so fat so you just moved to hancock park becca have you ever been to
salt and straw have i i have like a permanent parking spot in front of it okay so they have
like okay salt and straw is uh like a gourmet ice cream specialty place and they have their like
seasonal menu of ice creams and this is sad that this is my high point of my week because
it my high point is eating ice cream that's it okay that's what i'm gonna tell you what these
flavors are because it's insane so it's like a whole entire like seasonal meal basically they
have sweet potato and maple pecan ice cream gross buttered mashed potatoes and gravy ice cream no
thanks apple cranberry stuffing ice cream oh god salted caramel turkey ice cream oh god and then
spiced goat cheese and pumpkin pie but you acted like the goat cheese was okay well that's the
only one that's not like i don't know the goat cheese one was amazing no i can't support meat
flavored ice cream it was not only meat flavored there was like pieces of turkey and ice no it
wasn't yeah oh that's like caramelized turkey it was amazing so wow you're actually out of the
vampire just kidding you can stay okay so that was your good week turkey ice cream was your good
week can't wait to see where the bad week takes us so it's only downhill from here so bad week
i was in a beer pong competition i had seen you that night before i went out to slay in beer pong
and uh i did terrible my teammates sucked and so i got kicked out of the competition so i just
proceeded to just drink all the beer all the whiskey all the anything this party had to offer
good girl got way too drunk for my own good yep apparently when i went home i texted every single
guy i've probably hooked up with in the past year wow classy hi that's it just hi so i woke up in
the morning with like i'm not kidding it was probably like 15 different guys it was just like
i looked on my text message screen it was like hi hi was there punctuation in the high oh yeah
like just a high period oh no just a period oh that's it because i'm like trying to seem like
sexy and coy when i'm drunk but really like can't see and i'm like texting with one eye
question did any of them write back all of them of course they did they're still and it's like
people i've like hooked up with once that i'm like i like the date was horrible i never want
to see you again and it's like oh hey jack good to see or good to hear from you so like you want
to get dinner this week oh no it was a blackout mass test trying to get busy like i was but then
i like went home and regretted it turkey ice cream immediately no that was the next day that
was trying i was trying to redeem myself wow well i don't know how i can top that hi hi hi um good
week for me this week it's very exciting i think all the ladies out there will understand this
i bought a new pair of jeans now here's the thing when i picture what hell will look like
it's totally the fluorescent lighting in the dressing room trying on jeans and then all my
ex-boyfriends i can't tell you where i was but i was it's a big store big store because i don't
but if they want to sponsor the podcast i don't want to be like your dressing room stink you know
what i'm saying like i gotta make that money i'm gonna ask you after this is over okay so the
dressing was terrible but anyway so i've been trying on jeans for a whole year because there's
a part of my brain that thinks oh my goodness i should be like high school kelty size forever
Like, I'm in my 30s now.
I have to let that go.
My metabolism, it's, like, we can't all be Cindy Crawford.
You know what I mean?
Anyway, so I found a pair of jeans that fits.
Can I get a hell yeah for that?
Like, that's, like, very important.
Heck yes.
I've been wearing sweatpants for a week.
Okay, well, whatever.
I literally only wear leggings.
Okay.
So, anyway, jeans fit.
Here's my bad week.
So, we're very excited to have Cheryl Burke on the podcast.
And, you know, I have to, as my job, I, you know, have work at this TV studio.
And there's a Trader Joe's right there and a BevMo.
The only things you really need in life.
So I was on the champagne run to have these delicious mimosas and I really have such a
crazy life.
I have no time off.
So I borrowed the guy who sweeps the lots bike that had a case, like a little basket
on the front.
And I was like, cool, I got 10 minutes.
I'm going to roll up, get myself a green juice and then I'm going to roll over to BevMo
and I'm going to get the champagne for the podcast.
Honestly, anytime a grown woman talks about jumping on a bike, I get nervous.
Wait, I don't understand why you couldn't have driven?
No, because I could walk, but it takes a long time to walk.
I'm speedy on a bicycle.
I spin.
I spin, baby.
I can go real fast.
Anyway, so I'm driving up.
I get BevMo, got the champagne.
Boom.
Got my green juice, and I was like, yes, I'm so excited.
I'm eating healthy.
I'm going to drink my green juice.
I'm driving back.
I'm living.
I'm living.
And then I'm not living.
I fall off the bike.
Half of the champagne breaks, which is, it's horrific.
No, that's a human crime scene.
But if you drink one bottle of champagne, that's horrible.
Thank you.
My green juice empties, so there's just an inch of green juice.
I was being such a good girl.
I didn't have McDonald's for lunch.
I had the damn green juice.
It's gone.
I had to put it in a tiny cup and drink it out of a straw.
Anyway, it was so embarrassing.
And here's the real truth of it.
I have one of those hoverboards that's just, like, embarrassing, but I can go super fast.
I know.
So I can ride around on my hoverboard and not fall at all.
But then the security guys at my studio said, no wheels on the lot, Kelty.
so i can't ride the hoverboard anymore so to borrow this damn bike i fell off the bike isn't
a bike wheels like i don't know they just don't want you looking like a tool on the hoverboard
yeah i mean i think that's a really good they're saving your reputation we're trying to help your
career please don't drive that hoverboard around executives who are you justin bieber you're so
weird i know only rappers can have whatever anyway so that was my bad week is that thank god we got
