Sundays With Tabs the Cat, Makeup and Beauty Blog Mascot, Vol. 381

January 17th, 2016 by Karen 11 Comments

Dear Diary,

Pack your swim trunks, rash guard and your puka shells because we’re heading to Hawaii! YES!!!

Sometimes I affectionately refer to Hawaii as “the motherland” because my male assistant is from there, and because I go there so much. I might as well be part Hawaiian!

This one is mostly a work trip — like, I have to check on several possible beach shoot venues for my upcoming kitty swimsuit calendar, and I also want to stop by and visit the kitty models that I manage on Kauai. They’re part of the Hawaii branch of my modeling agency, which I’m very proud of, and the team there has made some big strides over the past few years.

But I’ll also be going for play, so of course I have to meet up with some of my surf buddies, like Kelly Slater (not to drop names or anything) — you know, to do some surfing and hanging out, just enjoying the islands.

So I’m really, REALLY excited. First things first, tomorrow I have to get my assistant to pack all of my necessities — my fur SPF, of course, because it’s so important; and all of my beach gear; and oh! — my snorkel equipment.

The last time I went to Hawaii, I took up snorkeling, and it’s actually really fun. I love it almost as much as surfing.

And of course I’ll be bringing you, Diary, so I can document my adventures and all of the fish I see while I’m snorkeling. Contrary to popular belief, I’m fully capable of snorkeling without swatting at every fish in sight. I do it more for the relaxing, so it’s not about hunting.

This is so exciting! I leave in less than a week, and thank goodness because I’m so over El Niño… See you soon with sand between my paws.

Aloha,
Tabs

    Aw, man, I am so jelly! We spent our honeymoon in Hawaii and I really want to go back someday. Unfortunately I am not a gorgeous kitty model like you and I don’t get to go to all these fabulous shooting locations 🙁

    Sounds so nice! We had single digit temperatures here in Michigan, although it’s otherwise been unseasona todaybly warm this year (much needed after a month+ of below zero temperatures the past two years!)

    I hope you have a good trip. Can’t wait to see the Kauai kitty models!

    My kitties love sunbathing too! They said to tell you they’re jealous! They also said to tell you how awe-inspired they are with your talent for surfing! They run away at the mere sight of water! Relax well Tabs, it’s a tough life being a pampered pet and you deserve it!

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
