The Divine Secrets of a Southern Diva

Observations drenched in chocolate, best enjoyed with a fine wine.

It’s Jeanine FOR THE WIN.

She sold me on that solo. GOD, the pirouettes into a paused attitude.  Hello?! THAT alone should make her the winner. And that PASO.  Katie Swick, THAT is what I’m talking about when I say Paso is my favorite Latin Dance. That was easily the best I’d ever seen.
I think Brandon was great. I think [...]

Neal and Ali’s Lunchtime Adventure And Other Things

Today no one was at work. Between the flu and vacations and sales training and whatever else it was a ghost town. So me and Neal (the two people with no vehicles) were all “Let’s go to lunch! And lets go someplace we have to drive to!”.
Fail.
So, Neal’s all “We can take the bus!”. Hi. [...]

Nancy Is Such A Hater.

Do y’all even know what that bitch did? She bought me a plane ticket to LA, fed me tons of yummy food, got me liquored up, let me hang out with Megs AND let me decorate her new office AND her new apartment.
That girl is the devil. Just the absolute fucking epitome of evil.
It all [...]

Are Mah Eyes Deceivin’ Me?!

My co-worker Kevin’s job is to find awesome stuff on the internet. And when he finds truly superbly awesome stuff, he passes it out.   I’m fairly certain he hit the jackpot with this one (even if he actually saw it on TV first).
This is an infomercial. Someone took all the good parts and chopped [...]

Why are people throwing things at me?

So I’m on Facebook, right? It’s a cool little website. I find it to be an amusing little time-suck. BUT. What the fuck with the crazy application shit?
Last night, someone threw a hamster in a water balloon at me.  I don’t know what to do with that.
Did they kill a hamster, fill a water balloon [...]

Me Time.

OH MAH GAWD, Y’ALL. You know what I have to do this weekend?
Not a fucking thing. I am happier than a pig in shit about that.
I feel like we’ve been going non stop since October. Mike’s parents were here, Dianne was here (amazing that my liver survived that) then Christmas and we celebrated 4 times, [...]

Dishing With The Diva

So, we are 5 days into the New Year. The holidays went over like a blur. I know I experienced them and I have Christmas gifts, pics and video to prove it, but it feels like a lifetime ago. That’s how busy I was. I actually worked pretty much everyday of my vacation.
I’ll post an [...]

A Tribute to Steve Perry…

by a bunch of drunk crazy bitches. Me, Mike, Dianne, Sarah, Seth, Savannah and Jacques (yes, Jacques was in town ) all headed out to dinner and Howl At The Moon last night. Initially we were going to Max’s Wine Dive, but since they can’t answer the phone or even be polite, we didn’t [...]

DAY 2: Dianne and Ali Take Over THE WORLD

Yesterday we sat around in our PJ’s most of the day, watched Definitely Maybe and drank coffee.  It was fabulous.
Later, Sarah and Kristen came over and we headed out to 1/2 price wine night at The Daily Review Cafe.  Every bottle under $50 is half price. I can dig that. And the food is YUM.
We [...]
