Have you ever wondered how a chance encounter can spark a whirlwind adventure? Lina and I start this episode with some fun tales about our pets, Toby and Kaia, who always seem to have their own plans. From there, Lina shares the spontaneous decision to jet off to Tulum, all because of a social media post about my new luggage. Joined by the enigmatic "Mr. New Year's," we found ourselves indulging in gluten-free delights and making new friends at the Grand Oasis Tulum, turning an impromptu trip into a feast for the senses.
Navigating the unpredictable waters of new relationships, we reflect on the beauty of finding love when least expected. The episode takes a warm turn as we dive into tales of blossoming connections, exploring how patience and small gestures can build a foundation of trust and love. Through personal stories, we explore the importance of clear communication and the joy of embracing each other's quirks, even when things like hair color mishaps threaten to steal the spotlight. These moments remind us that the path to love is often lined with unexpected joy and laughter.
As we dream about future adventures and even contemplate wedding bells, the conversation turns to the humorous challenges of balancing children, podcasts, and planning a fairytale wedding. With a touch of playful banter, we discuss the possibility of "Mr. New Year's" charming accent joining our podcast and the fun dynamics of planning a life together. Whether it's the surprise of spray tans gone awry or the art of blending families, this episode is a heartfelt celebration of life's unpredictable and delightful moments.

So, um, what are we talkingabout today?
Speaker 2 (02:14):
so there's a lot that happened.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I got back from my trip, oh yeah, yeah, you want to
fill us in on that.
How'd that go?
It went great um.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
So I went to.
It was a byproduct of NewYear's Day.
New Year's, yeah, into NewYear's Day.
So I told you I had posted apicture of the luggage that you
got me for Christmas and Iposted it on social media and I
was like, when you get newluggage for Christmas, then you
don't have anywhere to go.
So I said I was acceptingoffers which somebody took me up
(02:44):
on.
And so, mr New Year's, Mr NewYear's.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
is that what we're calling?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
him right now.
Call Mr New Year's for now.
Yep, until he gets his own name.
Um, so Mr New Year's was likewhy is that funny?
I was gonna say something, butI can't you can't say it because
it's too close to his name.
Yes, I know, because Inicknamed that him.
I nicknamed him that on ourtrip.
No, um, but it's way too closeto his name.
Yeah, so we'll have to come upwith a name for him in due time.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
We should ask him what he wants his nickname to be
.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
We should I'm sure it'll be something like ewan
mcgregor.
I can't.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
That wasn't even right, that't even the right
accent no, not even close, noteven close.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Colin Firth, I don't even know what I'm doing.
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I'm not good with accents.
Okay, let's focus.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
How did the trip go?
So the trip was amazing.
The resort was really small.
Where'd you say, yeah, westayed at the Grand Oasis Tulum,
okay.
So super small resort.
Food was great.
So as soon as we told the chefthat I was gluten-free, he
swears the chef had a thing forme, which may or may not have
been true, but he made meanything I wanted.
(03:57):
He came out and he was like youwant sushi?
You want gluten-free pizza?
I have pasta.
I can make you steak, but notthe steak on the menu.
I have filet mignon for you.
And he was like just don't tellanybody else.
And so he would literally comeout with a whole tray of tacos
and it'd be like shrimp andlobster tacos and filet mignon
tacos, and it was not on themenu.
So people would walk by andthey'd be like Ooh, what's that?
(04:18):
And we're like nothing.
They're like where'd you getthat from?
And I'm like I made it BecauseI didn't want to throw them
under the bus.
You know, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So the food was great.
We did not have any bad meals.
He told me he's like I'm goingto make you you like chocolate.
I'm like I love chocolate.
He's like I'm going to make youchocolate muffins for breakfast
.
And so Mr New Year's Eve waslike what is this guy doing?
He's baking for you.
(04:49):
He reaped the benefits of mebeing gluten free because he got
to eat all the really good foodtoo.
Um, so the food was great.
We made a lot of friends.
There were a lot of reallyinteresting people in the resort
.
Uh, the first night that wewent to the club, this woman
walks by, I mean and when I meanwalk, I mean she's pretty much
running.
She was wearing this brightyellow dress and all of a sudden
she yanks me seen this woman inmy life.
Yanks me by my arm, almost likedislocates my shoulder, yanks
me, pulls me away I have a drinkin my hand goes flying, pulls
(05:11):
me out to the dance floor so weall start dancing.
So I sneak away to get back tothe bar and all of a sudden,
like 15 minutes later, I lookover and she's motorboating the
guy next to us.
So she became motorboat.
We called her motorboat for therest of the trip.
Oh, that seems like anappropriate name it turns out
that she was from texas and she,I think, was the only other
american, her and the guy thatshe was with, because everybody
(05:31):
else we met was canadian.
Oh, so they were either frommontreal, from quebec, a couple
people from toronto, but mostlyfrench canadian, so a lot of
french-speaking people at theresort.
Um, the pool was, the swim upbar was a lot of fun.
Drinks were good, nice andstrong.
The pool was freezing cold.
Really.
I don't know why.
I don't know why the pool waterdid not get the memo that we
(05:53):
were in Mexico.
Yeah, it was so cold.
So he would always go in to thepool before me.
He'd be like, babe, what do youwant to drink?
And I'd be like, uh, mojito.
So by the time that I actuallygot into the water and got to
the bar, my drink would bewaiting for me After you got
acclimated to the water.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
It was so cold.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
It's the worst, yeah, so it was great.
We had a really fabulous time.
It was nice to just kind oflike get away again, disconnect
and just have that time together, too, to figure things out.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Did we figure things out?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Oh, yeah, we figured them out.
Oh, what did we figure out?
It's a thing.
Oh, it's a thing.
It's a thing Like official Offthe market.
It is a thing.
We are doing this.
Oh, it was not the right timingfor him three years ago, right.
It was not the right timing forme six months ago, right.
So he gave me time, which youneeded.
(06:45):
I needed time, I needed space,I needed just to kind of heal
and I needed time with myfriends and my family and to do
things that I wanted to do forme.
And he gave that to me and hewas really patient and really
understanding and really kind.
But I think the most importantpart for me was that he never
gave up, right, and it wasn'tlike in a creepy way where he
was like stalking me and notleaving me alone, but he just
wanted to be relevant in my life, right, and just understand how
I was doing and how my familywas doing.
(07:05):
And he would just check in andask me to go out to dinner and I
would always try to split thebill with him because I didn't
want him to think I was justusing him to go to dinner and he
would never let me pay and umit wasn't anything.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Like you know, we never went home together
afterwards.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
We never anything and we just kind of really took it
very slow to get.
I mean, there were times we'dgo to dinner once every six
weeks, like would be a month orso since we saw each other, and
we just took it really slow.
And here we are doing adultingthings, mature, healthy, good
things look at you being matureand healthy.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I know who are you.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
I have no idea who I am.
I even ate sushi I mean I Istill cannot yeah, wrap my brain
around that.
Yeah, he made me fall in loveand eat raw fish in the same
week like wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait back the
truck.
I just figured I would likethrow that in there and just let
it slide and maybe nobody wouldcatch it.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I was gonna not catch that.
Yeah, there's a thing we're inlove.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
We're in love.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yeah, it's so like cheesy and corny, but it's good,
I know, I know, I've seen textmessages, I know.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
I told him when we were in the hotel and I looked
over at him, he was laying onthe bed watching a movie or
whatever.
Usually I would look over atsomebody and think, oh, that's
the man I love, or oh, he's sohandsome, or whatever it is that
I would think about him.
But for the first time I lookedat him and I was like, wow,
that man loves me.
And I didn't mean it in like adisrespectful way at all, not
(08:24):
that I don't love him or I don'tthink he's handsome or whatever
it is, but just the fact thatwhen I look at him I see the way
that he looks at me.
And it's the first timesomebody has made me feel like
that.
And I can honestly say I'venever felt so safe or secure
with someone before, so securewith someone before, so like my
feet hurt.
The one night we were dancingat the club for hours and I was
(08:45):
wearing heels and I take myheels off and we go to walk
outside and there's like acobblestone walkway and I
couldn't walk on it with my barefeet, otherwise it would hurt,
and without even thinking twicehe just picks me up and carries
me and, just like the sweetestthings ever.
We get back to the room and Iwas so tired and just wanted to
go to bed, but my feet weredirty and I didn't want to climb
in bed.
He gets in the shower andwashes my feet for me, so I
didn't have to get wet andcarries me and puts me in bed.
(09:06):
Oh right, Really that's sweet,super thoughtful, like he just
says, really thoughtful things.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
That's good.
So I then now my next questionwould be you ready?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I don't know if I'm ready but here I am.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Did he actually ask you to be his boyfriend?
Speaker 2 (09:21):
No, he did not ask me to be, his boyfriend, so he did
ask me.
But I made him ask me, so Itold him, oh there you go yeah,
see, she got excited, she's herefor the conversation.
She's like wait, I was therewhen it happened, me too.
Me too.
I made him ask me because Ididn't know, I didn't want to
assume at this point in life,you know, um moving forward from
here.
So I just kind of think it'd befunny if he was like oh yeah,
(09:43):
for all these months I've beenpursuing you and you know, now
that you're in love with me, I'mseeing somebody else too.
So I didn't imagine, no, I'dprobably go back to Mexico and
drown him.
So I didn't want to assume andI wanted to know that what we
were doing was intentional andthat we were both on the same
page in the same book, readingthe same language, you know, for
the first time.
So you know, I did want tounderstand, like, so this is
(10:06):
what we're doing, we areexclusive, we're not seeing
other people, we're giving thisour best effort.
And it was a resounding yes, soresounding a resounding how?
how did he go about asking you?
So he kind of laughed androlled his eyes and he was like
oh, did that like off?
Speaker 1 (10:21):
no, because, it's just his personality okay.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
And he was like do you really need me to say it?
And I was like, yes, I do.
And I'm like because I don'twant to assume.
And he's like will you be mygirlfriend?
And I was like, yes, I will.
And he kissed me and he lookedat the bartender and he was like
we're in love, oh god.
And the bartender was like okay, so I translate spanish for him
.
And then he was like oh yeahyeah, and it was like giving
(10:46):
like the rock on sign.
Oh yeah, so it was cute.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
It was cute oh, that's so funny.
Did I ever tell you about?
I have an ex and we were.
We were dating and I'll neverforget this.
He turned around and he goeswhat would you do if I asked you
to be my girlfriend and mebeing the jerk that I am?
I was like, well, why don't youask me and find out?
(11:09):
And he kind of looked at me.
He's like I thought I just did.
I was like, oh, that was you,you're like that's not what
happened.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
That was a what if question.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I was like, oh, is that what we're doing here?
I was such a jerk but we woundup being together, but it just
made me think of that.
It was so funny.
I was like, oh, ask me and findout.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
No, he wasn't going to ask me, but I made him ask me
because, like I said, I've beenin situations before where I
thought this was something andthey thought it was something
else and I just wanted to makesure that we both had the same
understanding.
Yeah, and we moving forward,there were no surprises.
Yeah, no, that makes sense.
That way, the first surprise Icould be like that was not what
(11:49):
we remember.
Bro, bro, yeah, bro, bro, yeah.
So I mean, now that we're onthe topic of mr new year's, you
met him I did yep, I did meethim okay and I thought he was
very nice.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I don't have anything bad to say about him yet.
Oper Operative word Give mesome more time, although I will
say so.
You started a group textmessage between the three of us
because you wanted him to meetme, but this was your idea, and
I thought it was fabulous.
Right.
So you started this groupmessage and you're like Mr New
(12:18):
Year's meet Nikita and Nikitameet Mr New Year's, and Iita and
Nikita meet Mr New Year's, andI was like, hey, what's up, we
go back and forth a little bit.
So then the other day I'm atyour house and me and the kids
are getting ready to leave andthe group text message goes off
and I open the message oh Lord,it was Mr New Year's.
(12:42):
Good night baby.
Oh Lord, it was Mr New Year's.
Good night baby.
I love you, I will see youtomorrow.
And I about lost it and I tookmy opportunity and I'm like, oh
babe, I love you too, and I justplayed right into it and he was
really cool about it, he aboutshit himself, when he realized I
(13:05):
know His response was ah fuck.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
So that was our recap .
So that was our Mexico trip.
Came back with a wholeboyfriend, a whole ass boyfriend
.
Crazy, right?
Yeah, look at me.
From our first podcast I'm'mlike I don't care about anybody
or anything other than myfriends and my family.
And now I'm like I love myboyfriend.
Yeah, who am I?
And I'm eating sushi.
I'm sick.
(13:29):
I'm sick of me.
I hate me.
I don't know who you are, Iknow but you're, you're just
starting to eat sushi.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Talk to me when you eat more than a california roll
with I had like tuna in it, didit.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Yeah, it had like tuna in it, did it.
Yeah, oh, okay, no, no, therewas tuna in it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
It was like tuna and avocado.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Oh, okay, yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I'll give you that then.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
But I don't know that I could do like the sashimi,
like the pieces of the wholefish over the thing, rice.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
That freaks me out.
Although, that freaks me out.
Although, although sashimi isjust raw fish, it's not.
I thought that was crudo.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
No, I don't know.
See, I don't really know enoughabout these things.
I feel like if I eat a whole,just flat ash chunk of fish,
it's going to come back alive,if not in my mouth, in my
stomach.
I'm sending you those Instagramreels so gross, yeah.
Yeah, something about rot andfish that just doesn't compute
in my brain.
But I'm trying.
I have an open mind and I'mtrying new things.
(14:25):
I'm growing and learning as aperson are you though?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
yes, okay, I think I am.
Do you like my other mic?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
I do.
It matches your tie-dye hoodie,by the way.
It's perfect.
Oh, how's your hair?
So it's less orange and pinkthan it was yesterday.
That was interesting.
So apparently, when you havelike really blonde extensions,
you can't use regular sunscreen?
Yes, so I was aware of this andI have been using mineral
(14:52):
sunscreen.
However, I was spraying Mr NewYear's with regular sunscreen
and I guess there were otherpeople around me, so I don't
know.
I mostly had my hair tied up ina bun and I was wearing a hat
for the majority of the timethat we were out and about
anyway, so I'm not really surehow it happened.
Some people are like, maybeit's the chlorine, I don't know,
but my hair turned orange andpink Like bad, really, really
(15:15):
bad.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
I thought well, when I first saw it, it looked more
brass to me.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
I didn't see the pink tones but you swore up and down
there was pink in there.
No, no, no.
It was pretty bad, and even MrNew Year's was like wow, that is
an interesting color and I'mlike, I'm like it's a good thing
.
Pink is like one of my favoriteartists.
I could be like you know, Ijust like my pink.
But it was really bad.
So I went online and I startedGoogling how to get the pink and
orange out of hair fromsunscreen mishaps and I found
this product called like MalibuC or something, so I ordered it
on Amazon and it came the nextday and I was never so excited
(15:47):
for my Amazon driver to getthere, because I just wanted to
wash my hair in the worst way.
I remember you saying that, soit definitely looks better than
it was.
There's still some weird tingythings, but I did order new hair
, so we'll see how that goes.
I'm gonna wash it again one moretime before I get my new hair
Put it.
And so you go Thursday for thatright Thursday.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
So I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I can't wait to get my extensions moved up and my
color done.
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
It's time.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yeah, I still got another couple of weeks, though,
oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, I think I could go longer in between the move
ups.
I don't feel like I have thatmuch growth, like it's not
bothering me, but I guess Idon't know if it's because of
vacation or all the issues thatI've had, but I've had a lot of
things popping and beads comingout.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Well, that's the beads popping.
That's normal.
That's not anything abnormal,because I always have a couple
of beads that pop and I talkedto my hairdresser who's also
your hairdresser about it.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
That's completely normal.
Okay, so it didn't happen thethe first time, but the first
time I felt like I had moregrowth by the time that I went
for my move up.
This time I don't feel like Ihave as much growth, but I feel
like I have a lot more nonsensehappening nonsense.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Yeah, so, okay, yeah.
So that's that good times yeah,it's definitely good times.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Look at you being such an adult.
I know it's so weird because,like now we're talking about
like doing adult things togetherwith like families, and he's
like I want to meet your dad andI want you to come on vacation
with my kids and I want to dothis and I want to do that.
And again, it's not like wejust met, right, so it's not.
(17:17):
It's like, oh my God, it's sosoon, but it's like a big deal,
you know.
But I'm excited about it.
His kids seem super welladjusted and like.
I've spoken to them on FaceTimeand I've met his oldest
daughter and she's like superawesome, she's great, we had a
lot of fun together.
So I'm equally as excited tomeet the other two.
He's got three kids.
Yeah, first of all, neverthought I'd date another guy
with kids, never thought I coulddate a guy who had three kids.
Never thought I'd date a guythat was foreign and not born in
(17:39):
this country and not an accentlike the whole night.
There's so many things, youknow, and it has nothing to do
with anybody being, you know,foreign or anything like that.
But my dad, my dad's animmigrant.
He came from another countryand spoke different language,
and I just think you know,sometimes you categorize people
by where they're from.
So, like my family's fromPoland, so a lot of Polish men
they drink and they smoke Right.
(18:07):
And Mr New men, they drink andthey smoke right, and mr new
year's where he's from.
That's also a bigcharacterization of men from his
country.
That's what they do, and that'sjust not what I was ever
attracted to, and I never in amillion years thought I would be
dating a man from anothercountry with an accent, who has
three kids.
But here I am, doing it andloving it.
So, and smokes and drinks.
Well, he doesn't smoke, hevapes, which I guess isn't the
same, but he's also quitting,because I apparently guilted him
and threw his vape in the pool.
(18:28):
I don't remember though.
So did it really happen?
No, right, if I don't remember,it didn't happen.
So we're looking throughpictures on his phone while
we're, uh, in the hotel room andhe's swiping.
I'm like oh wait, stop.
I'm like who is that?
And he's like that's the girlthat you were hanging out with
at the bar.
I'm like when?
And he's like yesterday, andI'm like what?
(18:49):
Go back?
No idea.
So I play the live.
Apparently I knocked some girldown.
We're standing on the swim upbar stools and we're like
dancing or something and I don'tknow if she went to go fall
down or what happened, but Iwent to go grab her and we like
sat down on the bar together.
No idea who she was.
He's like you were hanging outwith her for hours at the bar.
I'm like, yeah, I don'tremember her.
(19:09):
I have no recollection of this.
Yeah, so I don't know Reallygood drinks or really bad drinks
.
One of the two.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
But I was in a safe place.
Maybe they roofied you.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
That's what I'm saying.
You know how sometimes they sayin Mexico it's not actually the
alcohol that's in the bottle.
So that's happened to me oncebefore in Mexico.
But really bad experience.
This wasn't a bad experience,this was fun, right yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Interesting.
Yeah, I'll have to investigatethese photos.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
There were some good photos and we had some matchy
photos, which we totally didn'tplan because we haven't been
together long enough to havematching outfits.
But it just kind of worked outwhere he was like babe, what are
you wearing?
And I'm like I'm gonna wearthis color, and he's like, oh, I
have a short that color andjust kind of worked.
So which?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
makes me laugh, because my boyfriend and I, when
we go on vacation, we purposelymet, yeah, yeah, we like I'll
pick out whatever I'm gonna wear, and he's like, all right, just
pick out shirts whatever, andhe leaves it up to me.
So I always just becoordinating matching shirts and
like we went on a cruise and Ihad a blue dress on, he had a
(20:12):
blue shirt on and everybody'slike, oh, you guys match, you
look so cute.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
So yeah, I love when guys are open to doing that,
because I'm like that's so corny, I don't want to do that, you
know whatever.
But like with mr new year's, Iwas like, oh, so we can get like
matching christmas pjs nextyear.
And he's like I'm so totallydown for it and I'm like, okay,
I love this.
Like he's so into it.
He's like whatever you want,babe.
And I'm like, wow, I am notused to hearing that.
You know whatever you want,babe.
(20:37):
So that's cute.
Oh, we were the king and queenof karaoke, by the way.
Yeah, what did we sing?
So, uh, I first sang wagonwheel by darius rucker, and the
funniest part about it was thewoman who was introducing us.
Like the entertainment stafflady, she introduced me in
spanish and had no idea that Ispoke spanish, and so she told
(20:57):
the entire crowd that I was aprofessional singer from new
jersey, oh god.
And so the crowd's going wild.
So then, then I turned aroundto her in Spanish and I was like
why are you lying to everybody?
And she was like you speakSpanish, and it was great.
And I was like si mentirosa?
And she's like, oh my God, I'mlike adios mio.
And like the crowd's laughing,everybody's laughing.
And so I proceeded to tell thecrowd I was not a professional
(21:17):
singer from New Jersey.
To tell the crowd I was not aprofessional singer from New
Jersey, although I was from NewJersey Did you start getting
booed.
No, no, okay, because apparentlyI was like the best karaoke
singer that night or that thatresort has ever seen, because
they went wild and I'm notreally sure why.
There's video evidence thatthis floating is somewhere, so
we might be able to find it.
Okay, so I sang Wagon Wheel andthen, um, after that I don't
(21:40):
know, and she's like no, no,like, please will you sing again
?
and I'm like twist my arm okayfine so then, I sang um, pat
Benatar, hit me with your bestshot.
Okay, totally killed it.
Yeah, killed it, uh.
And then she came up to usagain.
She's like, can you guys do aduet?
Because he had sang too.
So he did like Sweet Caroline,he did a couple country songs
and stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
So then we sang Shallow that has to be
interesting with his accent.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Yeah, it was fun.
I also definitely have videoevidence of that, because that's
on my phone.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Okay, then I definitely need to see that.
Yeah, I can show you that.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
And then we sang Shallow together that was our
duet.
So that was really cute.
And then by the second karaokenight everybody wanted me to
sing again, but I was sick.
So I got really sick on ourlast day there, and hence the
not great sounding voice rightnow, the nasal yes, I sound
extra annoying.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
today you look a lot better than when you came home.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Oh, I look like death when I came home.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Yeah, you were in rough shape when you stopped to
get the dog.
You were like dead.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
I couldn't breathe.
That was the worst plane rideback because my ears I thought
my drums were going to rupture.
They were like so pressurizedfrom like the equilibrium and
the altitude and everything.
I was in pain.
I was in a lot of pain on thatflight and so I got home and I
called Teladoc and they calledin antibiotics.
But by that point the pharmacywas really closed.
I had to wait for the nextmorning to get them.
So I was in pretty rough shape,but I'm feeling better now.
(22:58):
I'm on day three of antibiotics, so Three or four.
I picked them up Friday.
So Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Oh, so it's day three .
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Yeah, so definitely not contagious, but I'm still.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Thank God you're not contagious, considering you're
sitting on my lap.
That's because you missed me.
Oh God, that's so funny.
Well, I'm glad you had a goodtime.
I'm glad you came home.
Well, I'm glad you had a goodtime.
I'm glad you came home.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Thanks for watching my dog for me again.
I'll take her anytime.
She was good.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
I had no problems.
You know, I find it absolutelyhysterical.
You bring the dog and I havethe two of them.
Yeah, and they're fine.
I never have any problems withthem.
They don't fight.
No, they don't.
They're so chill, they reallyare.
I have zero issues with them.
You get here and all hellbreaks loose.
Madness mayhem and pandemonium.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I don't understand.
You know my dog is superoverprotective of me and I think
that has something to do withit.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Maybe, but it chaos ensued when you got here.
I'm like this was not a thingAll week.
All week she was fine.
Yeah, all week she was quiet.
There was no, the dogs didn'tfight.
Yeah, there was no bickering,nothing.
You got here and Kaya hatesToby, toby hates Kaya.
I'm like going on.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
That's not true.
They were just like siblingsgetting into their little.
You know Sibling rivalries.
Yeah, that's it, and then theyget back together and it's love
all over again.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh, I love you, I hate you, I need you.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I want you and now.
Let sleeping dogs lie.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yes, please let sleeping dogs lie.
It's nice and quiet it is youdon't hear children's.
Well for what it's worth.
Well, for what it's worth.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
we only have one child here today, yes, but
there's multiple children in thebackground with child FaceTime
and apps.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
I actually haven't even heard her.
Usually I can hear her and Idon't hear anything.
So it makes me wonder whatshe's doing.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Well, I mean, you did tell her that you were going to
cut off her fourth finger ifyou heard her talk while we were
recording this is true.
I had something to do with it.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Totally kidding, totally kidding, totally killing
.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Please don't call dyphus or cbs or any other child
protective agencies.
The child is fine and safe andall of the fingers are attached.
And there were no threats.
I was just kidding.
This is a psa.
Children are safe.
Wow, coming from a certifiedfoster mom, there were no
children harmed in the filmingof today's podcast oh goodness,
oh my goodness, I can't, yeah,so funny.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Well, I'm glad, like I was saying, you came home in
one piece.
You didn't get married, whichwas a huge concern.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
It was a close call.
Did I tell you about the twowomen who took off their
engagement rings and told themto marry?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
me.
You know, you did tell me thatpeople were offering their rings
.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
So at one point he was talking to a bunch of the
people from the group that wewere with and he was telling
them our whole story, how we hadfirst met and what had happened
and then how we reconnected andwhat had happened and then how
we're connecting again.
And you know, he was tellingthem how he felt about me and
everybody was like, oh my God,this is fate.
How could your paths cross somany times?
(26:02):
It's not the other thing.
And when he kept telling themhow he felt about me, literally
two women took off their ringsand handed them to mr new year's
and was like go ask her tomarry you now.
Because he told them, everyhe's like I'm going to marry her
, she's going to be my wife.
And they're like go do it, godo it now, go do it now.
And they're literally handinghim rings and he turns around
and he was like I haven't mether dad and I haven't met her
daughter and I'm not going toask her before I ask them.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Oh, that's a whole nother conversation that we're
not going to get into.
I lost that.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I started crying.
I started crying and I was likeI can't with this man, like
where did he come from?
Yeah, so he handed them backand he goes.
I'm going to ask her goes, andwhen I do, it's going to be the
ring of her dreams and it'sgoing to be after I ask her dad
and after I ask her daughter,and I was like, oh, yeah, oh, I
hear yep, like that, yeah, shewouldn't be laughing if her
(26:45):
finger was cut off, by the way.
So proof all the fingers, allthe fingers, yeah oh, that's
sweet yeah it was very sweet.
We're gonna have to talk aboutthat, though.
Yeah, what color do you want towear for my wedding bridesmaid
dresses?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
um, not green, not green.
We have to make sure that,that's not not green, not green.
Okay, what time of the year arewe gonna get married?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
oh, that's a good question like destination or
here so I'm thinking destinationI would like to get married in
a castle in his country.
Oh, that that would be fun,right?
So he actually sent me a linkto this castle and I was like
that'd be amazing and to haveall of our friends and family
stay at the castle and partylike rock stars in a freaking
castle.
Cause I was like, I was like Ithink that'd be great, like have
(27:28):
a day where, like, I feel likea princess.
And he was like absolutely not.
And I was like what?
And he's like you are my queen,not a princess.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Oh, Annabelle too.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
She's even on board, so yeah.
So I think that would be reallycool to do something like that.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
That would be cool.
So are we thinking formalwedding then?
Yes.
So are we thinking like blacktie formal?
Or are we thinking like blacktie formal, or are we thinking
like typical wedding formal?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Probably typical wedding formal Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I think it would depend on what time of the year.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Because, like, if you're going to do a fall
wedding, you don't want to bewearing like bright summer
colors.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
You know what I mean?
Yeah, bright orange.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Yeah, not that I would want to wear bright orange
, but just.
But you know you would wantthat, you'd want it to fit the
theme you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
So I know he says like the best time to go to his
country is the beginning ofaugust because there's this big
like bank holiday, so maybe itwould be around then that would
be doable because I probablywouldn't have children at that
time of the year.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah, and we can go frolic in a castle Cause all
kinds of mayhem Right.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Tell me about it.
I think that would be fun, andthen I think we'd probably do
something here too, just foranybody who wasn't able to go
Right.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
So many conversations to be had.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
I know, and I know it's so crazy that we're even
having these conversations.
But again, it's not like wejust started dating, we just see
each other.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
It's not like you, don't know who he is Exactly.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just that we're finally onthe same page at the same time
and we're both like, yes, yes,we agree, we feel the same way
at the same time.
This is great happy.
I'm so happy for you Thanks,appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Aww, yeah, look at you being a whole ass adult now
I know, I'm so embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
I feel like I'm turning red like my sweatshirt.
Maroon Whatever you want tocall me that's, I would say
that's maroon.
By the way, did you notice mytan from coming back from
vacation?
Nope, not even a little bit.
That's bullshit, because Itried really hard If I showed
you my ass, because it's barewhite and then tan.
So, sis, did you notice it whenI was in the shower?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
yeah, you can say it, I was gonna go there I did
notice.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Please tell our listeners and our viewers how
you were watching me in theshower.
Tell them, because that's notcreepy at all.
No, tell them how you werewatching me in the shower and
then you impersonated me to mrnew year's on the phone.
I did impersonate yeah, I didall right, so tell me about your
views.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
While you were sitting, I did notice a little
bit of a tan line.
Thank you, that's what you wantto call it thank you, yes, no,
I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, I feel like I should spray tan before going
back to work.
So some people are in like Ithought you were on vacation.
Be like I was.
Then you don't look like it.
Do you remember when I spraytanned for my friend's wedding?
This was probably like 2017,2018.
What I did your makeup for?
And I came to your house rightafter I spray tanned and I was
(30:26):
like what happened to you?
I had never spray tanned beforeand I was like so embarrassed
because I was doing the onewhere somebody actually tans you
and it wasn't the machine, yeah, and I had to get fully naked
in front of this chick and shewas like pretty hot and she was
really cool, so that made itfeel better for me.
But like she was beautiful andI had to get naked in front of
her and I was like huh, I hadbabies.
(30:47):
She never had babies, I know,but it was my first time doing
it, you know.
So kind of like my other reallygood friend she's like my
childhood best friend and shegoes for her waxing, yeah, and
her she said her wax lady, herwax lady.
Did I say wax lady?
no, I think you can you say waxlady three times fast?
Probably not okay.
So her wax lady, wax lady, waxlady, wax lady.
(31:08):
Oh, again, but that wasn't fast.
Oh, wax lady, wax lady, waxlady, I can do it, it just
sounds funny, wax lady.
So she said she gets really setat ease when she goes for her
waxes down there, because thewax lady looks like me.
So she's like it's not creepy,she's like it makes me feel
better, like she's not acomplete stranger, because she
reminds me of you, oh.
(31:29):
And I was like oh, okay, thanks, like you just want me to wax
you next time.
You know, let me know.
She's like yeah, she's my hero,that's what she.
I could never get that wax likethat.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, the only thing I've ever had waxed were my
eyebrows.
I was not a fan, so my eyebrowsdon't bother me.
Yeah, I used to actually get mylip wax too.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Oh really that one I was not a fan of.
But no, I've never waxedanything else and I don't think
I could or would.
No, no, no, that scares me.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Yeah, I wouldn't wax down there, I wouldn't do like
the people who do, likeBrazilians, like no, yeah, I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
I can't even imagine.
Like what an awkward thing tooAre they?
Like spread your cheeks, spreadyour I mean they have to Lips,
spread all the things, all thethings.
Like do they stretch you, likeput you in different positions,
like take your leg behind yourhead?
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I don't think so because you want the skin to be
tight.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
That'd be really weird.
What if you made noises whileit was happening?
I'd be so embarrassed I'd belike, oh my god, I just queefed
in front of my Brazilian waxlady.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
I'd be so embarrassed .
I just queefed in front of myBrazilian wax lady.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I don't know if I'd be able to do it.
The best part is, when you takethat clip for our little social
media snippets, it's going tosound like I did something that
I never did.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
It was a hypothetical people, people was a
hypothetical, or was it really?
Speaker 2 (32:48):
yeah, I don't know.
You'll have to tune in andlisten to find out what happened
with me and my non-brazilianwax ladies inside urban wax.
Good, god, help us all.
I love where our conversationsgo.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
They are interesting I don't know this was happening.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
This was not what was on the agenda at all tonight.
But, like I said, sometimes I'mjust as surprised as the things
that come out of my mouth, aseverybody else is yeah, yeah, so
Shocker.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
So when is the next vacation with Mr New Year's?
Speaker 2 (33:19):
So he has invited me to go on vacation with him and
his kids for spring break and hehas invited all my friends and
family.
He said the more the merrier,oh yeah, okay, so if you decide
you want to change your plans,Well, my plans include me and my
children going to SouthCarolina Right.
So like I said, if you want tochange your plans, come on
(33:40):
vacation with us.
Do you even know what you'redoing or where you're going?
So he usually does anall-inclusive resort with the
kids, and so we had spoken aboutthat.
I was like, oh, have you everdone a cruise with the kids?
And he's like no.
And I'm like, have you everbeen on a cruise?
And he said no.
So I was saying how much fun itis and how many different
activities there are and howit'd be a great thing for the
kids.
And he said he's totally gameto try it.
So he had texted the kids tosee what they thought about it.
(34:07):
And they are, so it would be areally great idea for him.
And he was laughing because hisoldest daughter is in college
and she was not going to go onspring break vacation with them
because her spring break doesn'talign with her brother's and
sister's spring break, sincethey're still in high school.
So she's like, no, I'm notgoing to go.
And as soon as he told her thatI was going, she's like yeah,
no, no, that sounds great, I'mgonna come.
(34:27):
And he's like what?
What do you mean?
You're gonna come, just like,well, she's coming, I'm coming.
Oh yeah, so I thought that was.
I was like well, would yourather be the opposite and her
not want to go because I wasgoing?
It's like, of course, of coursenot.
I can't, you can't, I can'tgive up on it.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
I know I can't do it justice, it's great do you think
he would ever come on thepodcast, just so we can have
everybody experience his accent?
Speaker 2 (34:48):
A thousand percent, without a doubt.
But then he'd probably take myrole and then it'd be like a new
podcast.
It'd be like the new year andNikita.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
The new year and.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Nikita, I know and I'd get kicked off my own show.
He would definitely come to thepodcast.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Just so people can hear the accent.
Yeah, because you're doing it.
No justice.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
No, I know I can't do it at all.
That's something that he saysNot at all.
That's not even what it soundslike.
No, no, but it's great.
It's so great.
I didn't hear it as much atfirst, like when we had first
started dating, and I think hewas like very conscious of it,
but now I think he's just socomfortable around me that it
(35:29):
just comes out.
And the more it comes out, themore I love it.
But I'm just still learningwhat things mean.
So, like when I came out of theroom one day that we were in
Mexico and he's like I love youplat, what?
Yeah, that's what I said.
I said what?
So he repeated exactly what Iheard I love you plat.
And I was like, yeah, that'swhat I thought you said.
(35:50):
He's like yeah, I'm like okay,but what does it mean?
And he's like you're plat.
And I was like what?
And he's like you're braid.
And I was like, oh, thank you.
A braid is called a platInteresting.
I had no idea, so that was agood one.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
So I'm still learning .
What other interesting wordshave you learned?
Speaker 2 (36:07):
oh.
So my favorite one was garage,garage, no garage, garage with a
d yes, garage.
So when he first said that tome, I said what?
And he said garage.
And I said, oh, carriage.
And he's like no garage.
I'm like what is a garage?
And he's like you know, youknow a garage.
I'm like could you spell?
I don't know what that is.
I'm like could you spell?
(36:28):
No, I don't know what that is.
I'm like could you spell it forme, right, cause I'm really
good with spelling.
You know me and my grammar,nazism.
So he's like G, a, r, I, d, g,e and I'm like nope, no, what,
what is that he's like you knowwhere you park your car?
I'm like, oh, a garage, yeah,Garage.
I'm like, oh, yeah, so that'sanother really good one.
Um.
He says straight away insteadof like soon or quick, like I'll
(36:49):
be there straight away, oh,okay, so that one is a cute one
too.
He says ye a lot, yeah, um, sothat's cute.
Or he says me, like you know mepants instead of my yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.
So I'm still learning.
I'm gonna, I think, puttogether a list of some of them,
some of, yeah, please, some ofmy favorites.
This would be interesting.
Yeah, that'll be fun.
(37:10):
Yeah, so I just want to see himlike in his environment, back
at home with his friends or hisfamily, and I just want to see
it come all out full force,right, because I'm pretty sure
he'll be speaking English and Iwon't understand a word that
he's saying.
You know, like the smile andnot yes.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Now do his kids speak the language?
Speaker 2 (37:35):
The language Um no, so believe it or not, do they
have accents.
No, no, no.
So they were all born here.
Okay, they were all born hereand it's considered a dead
language.
Nobody really speaks it anymore, and so they only actually
teach it in school, I think upuntil high school.
So everybody still has to learnit, that goes to school there.
But the part that blows my mindis his parents don't even speak
(37:59):
it Really, so his parents were.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Do they live?
Speaker 2 (38:01):
there or do they live here?
They live there now, okay, butthey lived in other countries
growing up, mm-hmm.
So they moved to his countrywhen they had him.
So they weren't like born andraised there, but he was so to
me.
It just kind of blew my mindthat he spoke a language that
his parents didn't speak.
Could, you imagine your kidscoming home from school every
day and learning to speak thelanguage for the country that
(38:23):
you live in and you don't speakit.
And again, like you said, it isa dead language and everybody
that lives in that countryspeaks English.
Right, but just the fact thatyou know your kids are learning
a language of the country thatyou live in and you don't speak
it, yeah, that's weird, yeah,crazy, yep.
So he speaks it.
His kids don't speak it.
Do you learn it from him?
(38:52):
You know, I think it'ssomething similar to what I went
through growing up.
So every Friday my brother andI had to go to Polish school.
So between six and nine we wereat Polish school.
Every Friday all the other kidswere having sleepovers or, you
know, parties at my friend'shouse.
For that I hated it.
I hated that.
They forced me to learn it andI wish now I had paid more
attention, like I can't but canyou speak Polish?
I can speak it conversationally,I wouldn't by any means say
(39:12):
that I'm fluent and I can't readit, and I can't write it at all
.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
That was me with my grandmother.
I could converse with mygrandmother in Italian, couldn't
read it, couldn't write it, butI could get away enough talking
to my grandmother Right.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
So if I need to know where to go to eat or what's in
the food or where the bathroomis, or get directions to
somewhere, I can get by.
But by no means is my Polish asgood as even my Spanish.
I feel like my Spanish isprobably better than my.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Polish.
Now, both your parents speakPolish right?
Yes, yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
So I wish that I had paid more attention to when they
sent me to Polish school.
I wish I would have taken itmore seriously.
I wish I would have understoodhow much more that would have
meant to me.
Now then, but of course Ididn't, and after probably about
three or four years of justbeing complete assholes to our
parents, they were like fine,forget it, just stop going to
Polish school.
So I think that's probably howhis kids feel about it, like
they don't really care, you know, but they do go back to the
country and he used to send themfor like six weeks every summer
(40:10):
so they would spend time with,you know, his family, and they
like going.
They look like, oh good, yeah,so, and he like lives on an
island so they go surfing and oh, water and everything, yeah,
yeah, that's pretty cool.
Oh, that's so exciting.
You want to go?
Yeah, let's go when august,first week of august this august
.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Yeah, I can't go August.
Why?
Because I have other plans forthis summer.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
Oh, we have other plans for the first week of
August.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Actually, I think I just get back around, then I
forget what dates, because wehave my boyfriend and I have
plans for the summer.
I forget the exact date.
Off the top of my head Soundsto me like you'll be available,
possibly, but I'm not going tohave the vacation time though,
because I have to go pick mykids up too.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
Are you going to have the sick time?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
I don't have sick time.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Are you going?
Speaker 1 (40:57):
to have the personal time.
I don't have personal time.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
What if you got abducted and we put in a missing
persons report?
I know someone who could helpus file it.
I know someone who could helpus file it on that note, I think
(41:38):
we need to stop.
Speaker 1 (41:38):
Oh my god, it's getting hot in here it's getting
hot in here.
Speaker 2 (41:44):

Speaker 1 (41:50):
I am getting so hot.
I mean, am I wrong?
Oh my goodness, I have a childstaring at us like we're nuts.

Yeah, because there is multiplepersonalities.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Oh no, I thought she was coming.
No, sure, I was waiting for herto make her debut on this
episode.
She's been on episodes before.
Yeah, I know, I.
Yeah, I know, I thought she wasjust making a comeback, but she
will come up at the leastopportune time.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
I don't remember.
Was she on our last episode?
She might have been, I don'tremember, but I'm sure she'll

No, you're my best friend.
You set yourself up for that,you just wanted to hear it.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
Yeah, I love you anyway.
So, um, what are we talkingabout today?
Speaker 2 (02:14):
so there's a lot that happened.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I got back from my trip, oh yeah, yeah, you want to
fill us in on that.
How'd that go?
It went great um.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
So I went to.
It was a byproduct of NewYear's Day.
New Year's, yeah, into NewYear's Day.
So I told you I had posted apicture of the luggage that you
got me for Christmas and Iposted it on social media and I
was like, when you get newluggage for Christmas, then you
don't have anywhere to go.
So I said I was acceptingoffers which somebody took me up
(02:44):
on.
And so, mr New Year's, Mr NewYear's.
Speaker 1 (02:47):
is that what we're calling?
Speaker 2 (02:48):
him right now.
Call Mr New Year's for now.
Yep, until he gets his own name.
Um, so Mr New Year's was likewhy is that funny?
I was gonna say something, butI can't you can't say it because
it's too close to his name.
Yes, I know, because Inicknamed that him.
I nicknamed him that on ourtrip.
No, um, but it's way too closeto his name.
Yeah, so we'll have to come upwith a name for him in due time.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
We should ask him what he wants his nickname to be
.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
We should I'm sure it'll be something like ewan
mcgregor.
I can't.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
That wasn't even right, that't even the right
accent no, not even close, noteven close.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
Colin Firth, I don't even know what I'm doing.
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
I'm not good with accents.
Okay, let's focus.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
How did the trip go?
So the trip was amazing.
The resort was really small.
Where'd you say, yeah, westayed at the Grand Oasis Tulum,
okay.
So super small resort.
Food was great.
So as soon as we told the chefthat I was gluten-free, he
swears the chef had a thing forme, which may or may not have
been true, but he made meanything I wanted.
(03:57):
He came out and he was like youwant sushi?
You want gluten-free pizza?
I have pasta.
I can make you steak, but notthe steak on the menu.
I have filet mignon for you.
And he was like just don't tellanybody else.
And so he would literally comeout with a whole tray of tacos
and it'd be like shrimp andlobster tacos and filet mignon
tacos, and it was not on themenu.
So people would walk by andthey'd be like Ooh, what's that?
(04:18):
And we're like nothing.
They're like where'd you getthat from?
And I'm like I made it BecauseI didn't want to throw them
under the bus.
You know, yeah, yeah, yeah.
So the food was great.
We did not have any bad meals.
He told me he's like I'm goingto make you you like chocolate.
I'm like I love chocolate.
He's like I'm going to make youchocolate muffins for breakfast
.
And so Mr New Year's Eve waslike what is this guy doing?
He's baking for you.
(04:49):
He reaped the benefits of mebeing gluten free because he got
to eat all the really good foodtoo.
Um, so the food was great.
We made a lot of friends.
There were a lot of reallyinteresting people in the resort
.
Uh, the first night that wewent to the club, this woman
walks by, I mean and when I meanwalk, I mean she's pretty much
running.
She was wearing this brightyellow dress and all of a sudden
she yanks me seen this woman inmy life.
Yanks me by my arm, almost likedislocates my shoulder, yanks
me, pulls me away I have a drinkin my hand goes flying, pulls
(05:11):
me out to the dance floor so weall start dancing.
So I sneak away to get back tothe bar and all of a sudden,
like 15 minutes later, I lookover and she's motorboating the
guy next to us.
So she became motorboat.
We called her motorboat for therest of the trip.
Oh, that seems like anappropriate name it turns out
that she was from texas and she,I think, was the only other
american, her and the guy thatshe was with, because everybody
(05:31):
else we met was canadian.
Oh, so they were either frommontreal, from quebec, a couple
people from toronto, but mostlyfrench canadian, so a lot of
french-speaking people at theresort.
Um, the pool was, the swim upbar was a lot of fun.
Drinks were good, nice andstrong.
The pool was freezing cold.
Really.
I don't know why.
I don't know why the pool waterdid not get the memo that we
(05:53):
were in Mexico.
Yeah, it was so cold.
So he would always go in to thepool before me.
He'd be like, babe, what do youwant to drink?
And I'd be like, uh, mojito.
So by the time that I actuallygot into the water and got to
the bar, my drink would bewaiting for me After you got
acclimated to the water.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
It was so cold.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
It's the worst, yeah, so it was great.
We had a really fabulous time.
It was nice to just kind oflike get away again, disconnect
and just have that time together, too, to figure things out.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Did we figure things out?
Speaker 2 (06:19):
Oh, yeah, we figured them out.
Oh, what did we figure out?
It's a thing.
Oh, it's a thing.
It's a thing Like official Offthe market.
It is a thing.
We are doing this.
Oh, it was not the right timingfor him three years ago, right.
It was not the right timing forme six months ago, right.
So he gave me time, which youneeded.
(06:45):
I needed time, I needed space,I needed just to kind of heal
and I needed time with myfriends and my family and to do
things that I wanted to do forme.
And he gave that to me and hewas really patient and really
understanding and really kind.
But I think the most importantpart for me was that he never
gave up, right, and it wasn'tlike in a creepy way where he
was like stalking me and notleaving me alone, but he just
wanted to be relevant in my life, right, and just understand how
I was doing and how my familywas doing.
(07:05):
And he would just check in andask me to go out to dinner and I
would always try to split thebill with him because I didn't
want him to think I was justusing him to go to dinner and he
would never let me pay and umit wasn't anything.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
Like you know, we never went home together
afterwards.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
We never anything and we just kind of really took it
very slow to get.
I mean, there were times we'dgo to dinner once every six
weeks, like would be a month orso since we saw each other, and
we just took it really slow.
And here we are doing adultingthings, mature, healthy, good
things look at you being matureand healthy.
Speaker 1 (07:35):
I know who are you.
Speaker 2 (07:36):
I have no idea who I am.
I even ate sushi I mean I Istill cannot yeah, wrap my brain
around that.
Yeah, he made me fall in loveand eat raw fish in the same
week like wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait back the
truck.
I just figured I would likethrow that in there and just let
it slide and maybe nobody wouldcatch it.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
I was gonna not catch that.
Yeah, there's a thing we're inlove.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
We're in love.
Speaker 1 (07:57):
Yeah, it's so like cheesy and corny, but it's good,
I know, I know, I've seen textmessages, I know.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
I told him when we were in the hotel and I looked
over at him, he was laying onthe bed watching a movie or
whatever.
Usually I would look over atsomebody and think, oh, that's
the man I love, or oh, he's sohandsome, or whatever it is that
I would think about him.
But for the first time I lookedat him and I was like, wow,
that man loves me.
And I didn't mean it in like adisrespectful way at all, not
(08:24):
that I don't love him or I don'tthink he's handsome or whatever
it is, but just the fact thatwhen I look at him I see the way
that he looks at me.
And it's the first timesomebody has made me feel like
that.
And I can honestly say I'venever felt so safe or secure
with someone before, so securewith someone before, so like my
feet hurt.
The one night we were dancingat the club for hours and I was
(08:45):
wearing heels and I take myheels off and we go to walk
outside and there's like acobblestone walkway and I
couldn't walk on it with my barefeet, otherwise it would hurt,
and without even thinking twicehe just picks me up and carries
me and, just like the sweetestthings ever.
We get back to the room and Iwas so tired and just wanted to
go to bed, but my feet weredirty and I didn't want to climb
in bed.
He gets in the shower andwashes my feet for me, so I
didn't have to get wet andcarries me and puts me in bed.
(09:06):
Oh right, Really that's sweet,super thoughtful, like he just
says, really thoughtful things.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
That's good.
So I then now my next questionwould be you ready?
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I don't know if I'm ready but here I am.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Did he actually ask you to be his boyfriend?
Speaker 2 (09:21):
No, he did not ask me to be, his boyfriend, so he did
ask me.
But I made him ask me, so Itold him, oh there you go yeah,
see, she got excited, she's herefor the conversation.
She's like wait, I was therewhen it happened, me too.
Me too.
I made him ask me because Ididn't know, I didn't want to
assume at this point in life,you know, um moving forward from
here.
So I just kind of think it'd befunny if he was like oh yeah,
(09:43):
for all these months I've beenpursuing you and you know, now
that you're in love with me, I'mseeing somebody else too.
So I didn't imagine, no, I'dprobably go back to Mexico and
drown him.
So I didn't want to assume andI wanted to know that what we
were doing was intentional andthat we were both on the same
page in the same book, readingthe same language, you know, for
the first time.
So you know, I did want tounderstand, like, so this is
(10:06):
what we're doing, we areexclusive, we're not seeing
other people, we're giving thisour best effort.
And it was a resounding yes, soresounding a resounding how?
how did he go about asking you?
So he kind of laughed androlled his eyes and he was like
oh, did that like off?
Speaker 1 (10:21):
no, because, it's just his personality okay.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
And he was like do you really need me to say it?
And I was like, yes, I do.
And I'm like because I don'twant to assume.
And he's like will you be mygirlfriend?
And I was like, yes, I will.
And he kissed me and he lookedat the bartender and he was like
we're in love, oh god.
And the bartender was like okay, so I translate spanish for him
.
And then he was like oh yeahyeah, and it was like giving
(10:46):
like the rock on sign.
Oh yeah, so it was cute.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
It was cute oh, that's so funny.
Did I ever tell you about?
I have an ex and we were.
We were dating and I'll neverforget this.
He turned around and he goeswhat would you do if I asked you
to be my girlfriend and mebeing the jerk that I am?
I was like, well, why don't youask me and find out?
(11:09):
And he kind of looked at me.
He's like I thought I just did.
I was like, oh, that was you,you're like that's not what
happened.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
That was a what if question.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
I was like, oh, is that what we're doing here?
I was such a jerk but we woundup being together, but it just
made me think of that.
It was so funny.
I was like, oh, ask me and findout.
Speaker 2 (11:29):
No, he wasn't going to ask me, but I made him ask me
because, like I said, I've beenin situations before where I
thought this was something andthey thought it was something
else and I just wanted to makesure that we both had the same
understanding.
Yeah, and we moving forward,there were no surprises.
Yeah, no, that makes sense.
That way, the first surprise Icould be like that was not what
(11:49):
we remember.
Bro, bro, yeah, bro, bro, yeah.
So I mean, now that we're onthe topic of mr new year's, you
met him I did yep, I did meethim okay and I thought he was
very nice.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
I don't have anything bad to say about him yet.
Oper Operative word Give mesome more time, although I will
say so.
You started a group textmessage between the three of us
because you wanted him to meetme, but this was your idea, and
I thought it was fabulous.
Right.
So you started this groupmessage and you're like Mr New
(12:18):
Year's meet Nikita and Nikitameet Mr New Year's, and Iita and
Nikita meet Mr New Year's, andI was like, hey, what's up, we
go back and forth a little bit.
So then the other day I'm atyour house and me and the kids
are getting ready to leave andthe group text message goes off
and I open the message oh Lord,it was Mr New Year's.
(12:42):
Good night baby.
Oh Lord, it was Mr New Year's.
Good night baby.
I love you, I will see youtomorrow.
And I about lost it and I tookmy opportunity and I'm like, oh
babe, I love you too, and I justplayed right into it and he was
really cool about it, he aboutshit himself, when he realized I
(13:05):
know His response was ah fuck.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
So that was our recap .
So that was our Mexico trip.
Came back with a wholeboyfriend, a whole ass boyfriend
.
Crazy, right?
Yeah, look at me.
From our first podcast I'm'mlike I don't care about anybody
or anything other than myfriends and my family.
And now I'm like I love myboyfriend.
Yeah, who am I?
And I'm eating sushi.
I'm sick.
(13:29):
I'm sick of me.
I hate me.
I don't know who you are, Iknow but you're, you're just
starting to eat sushi.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
Talk to me when you eat more than a california roll
with I had like tuna in it, didit.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
Yeah, it had like tuna in it, did it.
Yeah, oh, okay, no, no, therewas tuna in it.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
It was like tuna and avocado.
Speaker 2 (13:47):
Oh, okay, yeah, all right.
Speaker 1 (13:49):
I'll give you that then.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
But I don't know that I could do like the sashimi,
like the pieces of the wholefish over the thing, rice.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
That freaks me out.
Although, that freaks me out.
Although, although sashimi isjust raw fish, it's not.
I thought that was crudo.
Speaker 2 (14:05):
No, I don't know.
See, I don't really know enoughabout these things.
I feel like if I eat a whole,just flat ash chunk of fish,
it's going to come back alive,if not in my mouth, in my
stomach.
I'm sending you those Instagramreels so gross, yeah.
Yeah, something about rot andfish that just doesn't compute
in my brain.
But I'm trying.
I have an open mind and I'mtrying new things.
(14:25):
I'm growing and learning as aperson are you though?
Speaker 1 (14:28):
yes, okay, I think I am.
Do you like my other mic?
Speaker 2 (14:31):
I do.
It matches your tie-dye hoodie,by the way.
It's perfect.
Oh, how's your hair?
So it's less orange and pinkthan it was yesterday.
That was interesting.
So apparently, when you havelike really blonde extensions,
you can't use regular sunscreen?
Yes, so I was aware of this andI have been using mineral
(14:52):
sunscreen.
However, I was spraying Mr NewYear's with regular sunscreen
and I guess there were otherpeople around me, so I don't
know.
I mostly had my hair tied up ina bun and I was wearing a hat
for the majority of the timethat we were out and about
anyway, so I'm not really surehow it happened.
Some people are like, maybeit's the chlorine, I don't know,
but my hair turned orange andpink Like bad, really, really
(15:15):
bad.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
I thought well, when I first saw it, it looked more
brass to me.
Speaker 2 (15:27):
I didn't see the pink tones but you swore up and down
there was pink in there.
No, no, no.
It was pretty bad, and even MrNew Year's was like wow, that is
an interesting color and I'mlike, I'm like it's a good thing
.
Pink is like one of my favoriteartists.
I could be like you know, Ijust like my pink.
But it was really bad.
So I went online and I startedGoogling how to get the pink and
orange out of hair fromsunscreen mishaps and I found
this product called like MalibuC or something, so I ordered it
on Amazon and it came the nextday and I was never so excited
(15:47):
for my Amazon driver to getthere, because I just wanted to
wash my hair in the worst way.
I remember you saying that, soit definitely looks better than
it was.
There's still some weird tingythings, but I did order new hair
, so we'll see how that goes.
I'm gonna wash it again one moretime before I get my new hair
Put it.
And so you go Thursday for thatright Thursday.
Speaker 1 (16:05):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:06):
So I'm excited.
Speaker 1 (16:06):
I can't wait to get my extensions moved up and my
color done.
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
It's time.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
Yeah, I still got another couple of weeks, though,
oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Yeah, I think I could go longer in between the move
ups.
I don't feel like I have thatmuch growth, like it's not
bothering me, but I guess Idon't know if it's because of
vacation or all the issues thatI've had, but I've had a lot of
things popping and beads comingout.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
Well, that's the beads popping.
That's normal.
That's not anything abnormal,because I always have a couple
of beads that pop and I talkedto my hairdresser who's also
your hairdresser about it.
Speaker 2 (16:38):
That's completely normal.
Okay, so it didn't happen thethe first time, but the first
time I felt like I had moregrowth by the time that I went
for my move up.
This time I don't feel like Ihave as much growth, but I feel
like I have a lot more nonsensehappening nonsense.
Speaker 1 (16:48):
Yeah, so, okay, yeah.
So that's that good times yeah,it's definitely good times.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
Look at you being such an adult.
I know it's so weird because,like now we're talking about
like doing adult things togetherwith like families, and he's
like I want to meet your dad andI want you to come on vacation
with my kids and I want to dothis and I want to do that.
And again, it's not like wejust met, right, so it's not.
(17:17):
It's like, oh my God, it's sosoon, but it's like a big deal,
you know.
But I'm excited about it.
His kids seem super welladjusted and like.
I've spoken to them on FaceTimeand I've met his oldest
daughter and she's like superawesome, she's great, we had a
lot of fun together.
So I'm equally as excited tomeet the other two.
He's got three kids.
Yeah, first of all, neverthought I'd date another guy
with kids, never thought I coulddate a guy who had three kids.
Never thought I'd date a guythat was foreign and not born in
(17:39):
this country and not an accentlike the whole night.
There's so many things, youknow, and it has nothing to do
with anybody being, you know,foreign or anything like that.
But my dad, my dad's animmigrant.
He came from another countryand spoke different language,
and I just think you know,sometimes you categorize people
by where they're from.
So, like my family's fromPoland, so a lot of Polish men
they drink and they smoke Right.
(18:07):
And Mr New men, they drink andthey smoke right, and mr new
year's where he's from.
That's also a bigcharacterization of men from his
country.
That's what they do, and that'sjust not what I was ever
attracted to, and I never in amillion years thought I would be
dating a man from anothercountry with an accent, who has
three kids.
But here I am, doing it andloving it.
So, and smokes and drinks.
Well, he doesn't smoke, hevapes, which I guess isn't the
same, but he's also quitting,because I apparently guilted him
and threw his vape in the pool.
(18:28):
I don't remember though.
So did it really happen?
No, right, if I don't remember,it didn't happen.
So we're looking throughpictures on his phone while
we're, uh, in the hotel room andhe's swiping.
I'm like oh wait, stop.
I'm like who is that?
And he's like that's the girlthat you were hanging out with
at the bar.
I'm like when?
And he's like yesterday, andI'm like what?
(18:49):
Go back?
No idea.
So I play the live.
Apparently I knocked some girldown.
We're standing on the swim upbar stools and we're like
dancing or something and I don'tknow if she went to go fall
down or what happened, but Iwent to go grab her and we like
sat down on the bar together.
No idea who she was.
He's like you were hanging outwith her for hours at the bar.
I'm like, yeah, I don'tremember her.
(19:09):
I have no recollection of this.
Yeah, so I don't know Reallygood drinks or really bad drinks
.
One of the two.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
But I was in a safe place.
Maybe they roofied you.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
That's what I'm saying.
You know how sometimes they sayin Mexico it's not actually the
alcohol that's in the bottle.
So that's happened to me oncebefore in Mexico.
But really bad experience.
This wasn't a bad experience,this was fun, right yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Interesting.
Yeah, I'll have to investigatethese photos.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
There were some good photos and we had some matchy
photos, which we totally didn'tplan because we haven't been
together long enough to havematching outfits.
But it just kind of worked outwhere he was like babe, what are
you wearing?
And I'm like I'm gonna wearthis color, and he's like, oh, I
have a short that color andjust kind of worked.
So which?
Speaker 1 (19:52):
makes me laugh, because my boyfriend and I, when
we go on vacation, we purposelymet, yeah, yeah, we like I'll
pick out whatever I'm gonna wear, and he's like, all right, just
pick out shirts whatever, andhe leaves it up to me.
So I always just becoordinating matching shirts and
like we went on a cruise and Ihad a blue dress on, he had a
(20:12):
blue shirt on and everybody'slike, oh, you guys match, you
look so cute.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
So yeah, I love when guys are open to doing that,
because I'm like that's so corny, I don't want to do that, you
know whatever.
But like with mr new year's, Iwas like, oh, so we can get like
matching christmas pjs nextyear.
And he's like I'm so totallydown for it and I'm like, okay,
I love this.
Like he's so into it.
He's like whatever you want,babe.
And I'm like, wow, I am notused to hearing that.
You know whatever you want,babe.
(20:37):
So that's cute.
Oh, we were the king and queenof karaoke, by the way.
Yeah, what did we sing?
So, uh, I first sang wagonwheel by darius rucker, and the
funniest part about it was thewoman who was introducing us.
Like the entertainment stafflady, she introduced me in
spanish and had no idea that Ispoke spanish, and so she told
(20:57):
the entire crowd that I was aprofessional singer from new
jersey, oh god.
And so the crowd's going wild.
So then, then I turned aroundto her in Spanish and I was like
why are you lying to everybody?
And she was like you speakSpanish, and it was great.
And I was like si mentirosa?
And she's like, oh my God, I'mlike adios mio.
And like the crowd's laughing,everybody's laughing.
And so I proceeded to tell thecrowd I was not a professional
(21:17):
singer from New Jersey.
To tell the crowd I was not aprofessional singer from New
Jersey, although I was from NewJersey Did you start getting
booed.
No, no, okay, because apparentlyI was like the best karaoke
singer that night or that thatresort has ever seen, because
they went wild and I'm notreally sure why.
There's video evidence thatthis floating is somewhere, so
we might be able to find it.
Okay, so I sang Wagon Wheel andthen, um, after that I don't
(21:40):
know, and she's like no, no,like, please will you sing again
?
and I'm like twist my arm okayfine so then, I sang um, pat
Benatar, hit me with your bestshot.
Okay, totally killed it.
Yeah, killed it, uh.
And then she came up to usagain.
She's like, can you guys do aduet?
Because he had sang too.
So he did like Sweet Caroline,he did a couple country songs
and stuff.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
So then we sang Shallow that has to be
interesting with his accent.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Yeah, it was fun.
I also definitely have videoevidence of that, because that's
on my phone.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
Okay, then I definitely need to see that.
Yeah, I can show you that.
Speaker 2 (22:08):
And then we sang Shallow together that was our
duet.
So that was really cute.
And then by the second karaokenight everybody wanted me to
sing again, but I was sick.
So I got really sick on ourlast day there, and hence the
not great sounding voice rightnow, the nasal yes, I sound
extra annoying.
Speaker 1 (22:28):
today you look a lot better than when you came home.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Oh, I look like death when I came home.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
Yeah, you were in rough shape when you stopped to
get the dog.
You were like dead.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
I couldn't breathe.
That was the worst plane rideback because my ears I thought
my drums were going to rupture.
They were like so pressurizedfrom like the equilibrium and
the altitude and everything.
I was in pain.
I was in a lot of pain on thatflight and so I got home and I
called Teladoc and they calledin antibiotics.
But by that point the pharmacywas really closed.
I had to wait for the nextmorning to get them.
So I was in pretty rough shape,but I'm feeling better now.
(22:58):
I'm on day three of antibiotics, so Three or four.
I picked them up Friday.
So Friday, Saturday, Sunday.
Speaker 1 (23:05):
Oh, so it's day three .
Speaker 2 (23:06):
Yeah, so definitely not contagious, but I'm still.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
Thank God you're not contagious, considering you're
sitting on my lap.
That's because you missed me.
Oh God, that's so funny.
Well, I'm glad you had a goodtime.
I'm glad you came home.
Well, I'm glad you had a goodtime.
I'm glad you came home.
Speaker 2 (23:22):
Thanks for watching my dog for me again.
I'll take her anytime.
She was good.
Speaker 1 (23:25):
I had no problems.
You know, I find it absolutelyhysterical.
You bring the dog and I havethe two of them.
Yeah, and they're fine.
I never have any problems withthem.
They don't fight.
No, they don't.
They're so chill, they reallyare.
I have zero issues with them.
You get here and all hellbreaks loose.
Madness mayhem and pandemonium.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I don't understand.
You know my dog is superoverprotective of me and I think
that has something to do withit.
Speaker 1 (23:52):
Maybe, but it chaos ensued when you got here.
I'm like this was not a thingAll week.
All week she was fine.
Yeah, all week she was quiet.
There was no, the dogs didn'tfight.
Yeah, there was no bickering,nothing.
You got here and Kaya hatesToby, toby hates Kaya.
I'm like going on.
Speaker 2 (24:11):
That's not true.
They were just like siblingsgetting into their little.
You know Sibling rivalries.
Yeah, that's it, and then theyget back together and it's love
all over again.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Oh, I love you, I hate you, I need you.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I want you and now.
Let sleeping dogs lie.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Yes, please let sleeping dogs lie.
It's nice and quiet it is youdon't hear children's.
Well for what it's worth.
Well, for what it's worth.
Speaker 2 (24:33):
we only have one child here today, yes, but
there's multiple children in thebackground with child FaceTime
and apps.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
I actually haven't even heard her.
Usually I can hear her and Idon't hear anything.
So it makes me wonder whatshe's doing.
Speaker 2 (24:46):
Well, I mean, you did tell her that you were going to
cut off her fourth finger ifyou heard her talk while we were
recording this is true.
I had something to do with it.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Totally kidding, totally kidding, totally killing
.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
Please don't call dyphus or cbs or any other child
protective agencies.
The child is fine and safe andall of the fingers are attached.
And there were no threats.
I was just kidding.
This is a psa.
Children are safe.
Wow, coming from a certifiedfoster mom, there were no
children harmed in the filmingof today's podcast oh goodness,
oh my goodness, I can't, yeah,so funny.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
Well, I'm glad, like I was saying, you came home in
one piece.
You didn't get married, whichwas a huge concern.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
It was a close call.
Did I tell you about the twowomen who took off their
engagement rings and told themto marry?
Speaker 1 (25:32):
me.
You know, you did tell me thatpeople were offering their rings
.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
So at one point he was talking to a bunch of the
people from the group that wewere with and he was telling
them our whole story, how we hadfirst met and what had happened
and then how we reconnected andwhat had happened and then how
we're connecting again.
And you know, he was tellingthem how he felt about me and
everybody was like, oh my God,this is fate.
How could your paths cross somany times?
(26:02):
It's not the other thing.
And when he kept telling themhow he felt about me, literally
two women took off their ringsand handed them to mr new year's
and was like go ask her tomarry you now.
Because he told them, everyhe's like I'm going to marry her
, she's going to be my wife.
And they're like go do it, godo it now, go do it now.
And they're literally handinghim rings and he turns around
and he was like I haven't mether dad and I haven't met her
daughter and I'm not going toask her before I ask them.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
Oh, that's a whole nother conversation that we're
not going to get into.
I lost that.
Speaker 2 (26:23):
I started crying.
I started crying and I was likeI can't with this man, like
where did he come from?
Yeah, so he handed them backand he goes.
I'm going to ask her goes, andwhen I do, it's going to be the
ring of her dreams and it'sgoing to be after I ask her dad
and after I ask her daughter,and I was like, oh, yeah, oh, I
hear yep, like that, yeah, shewouldn't be laughing if her
(26:45):
finger was cut off, by the way.
So proof all the fingers, allthe fingers, yeah oh, that's
sweet yeah it was very sweet.
We're gonna have to talk aboutthat, though.
Yeah, what color do you want towear for my wedding bridesmaid
dresses?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
um, not green, not green.
We have to make sure that,that's not not green, not green.
Okay, what time of the year arewe gonna get married?
Speaker 2 (27:07):
oh, that's a good question like destination or
here so I'm thinking destinationI would like to get married in
a castle in his country.
Oh, that that would be fun,right?
So he actually sent me a linkto this castle and I was like
that'd be amazing and to haveall of our friends and family
stay at the castle and partylike rock stars in a freaking
castle.
Cause I was like, I was like Ithink that'd be great, like have
(27:28):
a day where, like, I feel likea princess.
And he was like absolutely not.
And I was like what?
And he's like you are my queen,not a princess.
Speaker 1 (27:37):
Oh, Annabelle too.
Speaker 2 (27:39):
She's even on board, so yeah.
So I think that would be reallycool to do something like that.
Speaker 1 (27:45):
That would be cool.
So are we thinking formalwedding then?
Yes.
So are we thinking like blacktie formal?
Or are we thinking like blacktie formal, or are we thinking
like typical wedding formal?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Probably typical wedding formal Okay.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I think it would depend on what time of the year.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
Because, like, if you're going to do a fall
wedding, you don't want to bewearing like bright summer
colors.
Speaker 2 (28:10):
You know what I mean?
Yeah, bright orange.
Speaker 1 (28:12):
Yeah, not that I would want to wear bright orange
, but just.
But you know you would wantthat, you'd want it to fit the
theme you know what I mean.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
So I know he says like the best time to go to his
country is the beginning ofaugust because there's this big
like bank holiday, so maybe itwould be around then that would
be doable because I probablywouldn't have children at that
time of the year.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Yeah, and we can go frolic in a castle Cause all
kinds of mayhem Right.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
Tell me about it.
I think that would be fun, andthen I think we'd probably do
something here too, just foranybody who wasn't able to go
Right.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
So many conversations to be had.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
I know, and I know it's so crazy that we're even
having these conversations.
But again, it's not like wejust started dating, we just see
each other.
Speaker 1 (29:00):
It's not like you, don't know who he is Exactly.
Speaker 2 (29:02):
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's just that we're finally onthe same page at the same time
and we're both like, yes, yes,we agree, we feel the same way
at the same time.
This is great happy.
I'm so happy for you Thanks,appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (29:14):
Aww, yeah, look at you being a whole ass adult now
I know, I'm so embarrassed.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
I feel like I'm turning red like my sweatshirt.
Maroon Whatever you want tocall me that's, I would say
that's maroon.
By the way, did you notice mytan from coming back from
vacation?
Nope, not even a little bit.
That's bullshit, because Itried really hard If I showed
you my ass, because it's barewhite and then tan.
So, sis, did you notice it whenI was in the shower?
Speaker 1 (29:38):
yeah, you can say it, I was gonna go there I did
notice.
Speaker 2 (29:42):
Please tell our listeners and our viewers how
you were watching me in theshower.
Tell them, because that's notcreepy at all.
No, tell them how you werewatching me in the shower and
then you impersonated me to mrnew year's on the phone.
I did impersonate yeah, I didall right, so tell me about your
views.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
While you were sitting, I did notice a little
bit of a tan line.
Thank you, that's what you wantto call it thank you, yes, no,
I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
Yeah, I feel like I should spray tan before going
back to work.
So some people are in like Ithought you were on vacation.
Be like I was.
Then you don't look like it.
Do you remember when I spraytanned for my friend's wedding?
This was probably like 2017,2018.
What I did your makeup for?
And I came to your house rightafter I spray tanned and I was
(30:26):
like what happened to you?
I had never spray tanned beforeand I was like so embarrassed
because I was doing the onewhere somebody actually tans you
and it wasn't the machine, yeah, and I had to get fully naked
in front of this chick and shewas like pretty hot and she was
really cool, so that made itfeel better for me.
But like she was beautiful andI had to get naked in front of
her and I was like huh, I hadbabies.
(30:47):
She never had babies, I know,but it was my first time doing
it, you know.
So kind of like my other reallygood friend she's like my
childhood best friend and shegoes for her waxing, yeah, and
her she said her wax lady, herwax lady.
Did I say wax lady?
no, I think you can you say waxlady three times fast?
Probably not okay.
So her wax lady, wax lady, waxlady, wax lady.
(31:08):
Oh, again, but that wasn't fast.
Oh, wax lady, wax lady, waxlady, I can do it, it just
sounds funny, wax lady.
So she said she gets really setat ease when she goes for her
waxes down there, because thewax lady looks like me.
So she's like it's not creepy,she's like it makes me feel
better, like she's not acomplete stranger, because she
reminds me of you, oh.
(31:29):
And I was like oh, okay, thanks, like you just want me to wax
you next time.
You know, let me know.
She's like yeah, she's my hero,that's what she.
I could never get that wax likethat.
Speaker 1 (31:45):
Yeah, the only thing I've ever had waxed were my
eyebrows.
I was not a fan, so my eyebrowsdon't bother me.
Yeah, I used to actually get mylip wax too.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Oh really that one I was not a fan of.
But no, I've never waxedanything else and I don't think
I could or would.
No, no, no, that scares me.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Yeah, I wouldn't wax down there, I wouldn't do like
the people who do, likeBrazilians, like no, yeah, I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (32:09):
I can't even imagine.
Like what an awkward thing tooAre they?
Like spread your cheeks, spreadyour I mean they have to Lips,
spread all the things, all thethings.
Like do they stretch you, likeput you in different positions,
like take your leg behind yourhead?
Speaker 1 (32:22):
I don't think so because you want the skin to be
tight.
Speaker 2 (32:25):
That'd be really weird.
What if you made noises whileit was happening?
I'd be so embarrassed I'd belike, oh my god, I just queefed
in front of my Brazilian waxlady.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
I'd be so embarrassed .
I just queefed in front of myBrazilian wax lady.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I don't know if I'd be able to do it.
The best part is, when you takethat clip for our little social
media snippets, it's going tosound like I did something that
I never did.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
It was a hypothetical people, people was a
hypothetical, or was it really?
Speaker 2 (32:48):
yeah, I don't know.
You'll have to tune in andlisten to find out what happened
with me and my non-brazilianwax ladies inside urban wax.
Good, god, help us all.
I love where our conversationsgo.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
They are interesting I don't know this was happening.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
This was not what was on the agenda at all tonight.
But, like I said, sometimes I'mjust as surprised as the things
that come out of my mouth, aseverybody else is yeah, yeah, so
Shocker.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
So when is the next vacation with Mr New Year's?
Speaker 2 (33:19):
So he has invited me to go on vacation with him and
his kids for spring break and hehas invited all my friends and
family.
He said the more the merrier,oh yeah, okay, so if you decide
you want to change your plans,Well, my plans include me and my
children going to SouthCarolina Right.
So like I said, if you want tochange your plans, come on
(33:40):
vacation with us.
Do you even know what you'redoing or where you're going?
So he usually does anall-inclusive resort with the
kids, and so we had spoken aboutthat.
I was like, oh, have you everdone a cruise with the kids?
And he's like no.
And I'm like, have you everbeen on a cruise?
And he said no.
So I was saying how much fun itis and how many different
activities there are and howit'd be a great thing for the
kids.
And he said he's totally gameto try it.
So he had texted the kids tosee what they thought about it.
(34:07):
And they are, so it would be areally great idea for him.
And he was laughing because hisoldest daughter is in college
and she was not going to go onspring break vacation with them
because her spring break doesn'talign with her brother's and
sister's spring break, sincethey're still in high school.
So she's like, no, I'm notgoing to go.
And as soon as he told her thatI was going, she's like yeah,
no, no, that sounds great, I'mgonna come.
(34:27):
And he's like what?
What do you mean?
You're gonna come, just like,well, she's coming, I'm coming.
Oh yeah, so I thought that was.
I was like well, would yourather be the opposite and her
not want to go because I wasgoing?
It's like, of course, of coursenot.
I can't, you can't, I can'tgive up on it.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
I know I can't do it justice, it's great do you think
he would ever come on thepodcast, just so we can have
everybody experience his accent?
Speaker 2 (34:48):
A thousand percent, without a doubt.
But then he'd probably take myrole and then it'd be like a new
podcast.
It'd be like the new year andNikita.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
The new year and.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Nikita, I know and I'd get kicked off my own show.
He would definitely come to thepodcast.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Just so people can hear the accent.
Yeah, because you're doing it.
No justice.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
No, I know I can't do it at all.
That's something that he saysNot at all.
That's not even what it soundslike.
No, no, but it's great.
It's so great.
I didn't hear it as much atfirst, like when we had first
started dating, and I think hewas like very conscious of it,
but now I think he's just socomfortable around me that it
(35:29):
just comes out.
And the more it comes out, themore I love it.
But I'm just still learningwhat things mean.
So, like when I came out of theroom one day that we were in
Mexico and he's like I love youplat, what?
Yeah, that's what I said.
I said what?
So he repeated exactly what Iheard I love you plat.
And I was like, yeah, that'swhat I thought you said.
(35:50):
He's like yeah, I'm like okay,but what does it mean?
And he's like you're plat.
And I was like what?
And he's like you're braid.
And I was like, oh, thank you.
A braid is called a platInteresting.
I had no idea, so that was agood one.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
So I'm still learning .
What other interesting wordshave you learned?
Speaker 2 (36:07):
oh.
So my favorite one was garage,garage, no garage, garage with a
d yes, garage.
So when he first said that tome, I said what?
And he said garage.
And I said, oh, carriage.
And he's like no garage.
I'm like what is a garage?
And he's like you know, youknow a garage.
I'm like could you spell?
I don't know what that is.
I'm like could you spell?
(36:28):
No, I don't know what that is.
I'm like could you spell it forme, right, cause I'm really
good with spelling.
You know me and my grammar,nazism.
So he's like G, a, r, I, d, g,e and I'm like nope, no, what,
what is that he's like you knowwhere you park your car?
I'm like, oh, a garage, yeah,Garage.
I'm like, oh, yeah, so that'sanother really good one.
Um.
He says straight away insteadof like soon or quick, like I'll
(36:49):
be there straight away, oh,okay, so that one is a cute one
too.
He says ye a lot, yeah, um, sothat's cute.
Or he says me, like you know mepants instead of my yeah, yeah,
yeah, yeah.
So I'm still learning.
I'm gonna, I think, puttogether a list of some of them,
some of, yeah, please, some ofmy favorites.
This would be interesting.
Yeah, that'll be fun.
(37:10):
Yeah, so I just want to see himlike in his environment, back
at home with his friends or hisfamily, and I just want to see
it come all out full force,right, because I'm pretty sure
he'll be speaking English and Iwon't understand a word that
he's saying.
You know, like the smile andnot yes.
Speaker 1 (37:28):
Now do his kids speak the language?
Speaker 2 (37:35):
The language Um no, so believe it or not, do they
have accents.
No, no, no.
So they were all born here.
Okay, they were all born hereand it's considered a dead
language.
Nobody really speaks it anymore, and so they only actually
teach it in school, I think upuntil high school.
So everybody still has to learnit, that goes to school there.
But the part that blows my mindis his parents don't even speak
(37:59):
it Really, so his parents were.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Do they live?
Speaker 2 (38:01):
there or do they live here?
They live there now, okay, butthey lived in other countries
growing up, mm-hmm.
So they moved to his countrywhen they had him.
So they weren't like born andraised there, but he was so to
me.
It just kind of blew my mindthat he spoke a language that
his parents didn't speak.
Could, you imagine your kidscoming home from school every
day and learning to speak thelanguage for the country that
(38:23):
you live in and you don't speakit.
And again, like you said, it isa dead language and everybody
that lives in that countryspeaks English.
Right, but just the fact thatyou know your kids are learning
a language of the country thatyou live in and you don't speak
it, yeah, that's weird, yeah,crazy, yep.
So he speaks it.
His kids don't speak it.
Do you learn it from him?
(38:52):
You know, I think it'ssomething similar to what I went
through growing up.
So every Friday my brother andI had to go to Polish school.
So between six and nine we wereat Polish school.
Every Friday all the other kidswere having sleepovers or, you
know, parties at my friend'shouse.
For that I hated it.
I hated that.
They forced me to learn it andI wish now I had paid more
attention, like I can't but canyou speak Polish?
I can speak it conversationally,I wouldn't by any means say
(39:12):
that I'm fluent and I can't readit, and I can't write it at all
.
Speaker 1 (39:17):
That was me with my grandmother.
I could converse with mygrandmother in Italian, couldn't
read it, couldn't write it, butI could get away enough talking
to my grandmother Right.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
So if I need to know where to go to eat or what's in
the food or where the bathroomis, or get directions to
somewhere, I can get by.
But by no means is my Polish asgood as even my Spanish.
I feel like my Spanish isprobably better than my.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
Polish.
Now, both your parents speakPolish right?
Yes, yeah.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
So I wish that I had paid more attention to when they
sent me to Polish school.
I wish I would have taken itmore seriously.
I wish I would have understoodhow much more that would have
meant to me.
Now then, but of course Ididn't, and after probably about
three or four years of justbeing complete assholes to our
parents, they were like fine,forget it, just stop going to
Polish school.
So I think that's probably howhis kids feel about it, like
they don't really care, you know, but they do go back to the
country and he used to send themfor like six weeks every summer
(40:10):
so they would spend time with,you know, his family, and they
like going.
They look like, oh good, yeah,so, and he like lives on an
island so they go surfing and oh, water and everything, yeah,
yeah, that's pretty cool.
Oh, that's so exciting.
You want to go?
Yeah, let's go when august,first week of august this august
.
Speaker 1 (40:26):
Yeah, I can't go August.
Why?
Because I have other plans forthis summer.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
Oh, we have other plans for the first week of
August.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
Actually, I think I just get back around, then I
forget what dates, because wehave my boyfriend and I have
plans for the summer.
I forget the exact date.
Off the top of my head Soundsto me like you'll be available,
possibly, but I'm not going tohave the vacation time though,
because I have to go pick mykids up too.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
Are you going to have the sick time?
Speaker 1 (40:56):
I don't have sick time.
Speaker 2 (40:56):
Are you going?
Speaker 1 (40:57):
to have the personal time.
I don't have personal time.
Speaker 2 (41:02):
What if you got abducted and we put in a missing
persons report?
I know someone who could helpus file it.
I know someone who could helpus file it on that note, I think
(41:38):

Oh my god, it's getting hot in here it's getting
hot in here.

Speaker 1 (41:50):
