1986 Called. They Want Their Party Back.

So, my quiet weekend I planned? Wasn’t so quiet. My darling friend Kristen called me Friday afternoon asking if we’d attend a party with her. In Missouri City. Full of people none of us knew. She met a guy she likes hanging out with and he was hosting this soiree.  But she didn’t know anyone [...]

Ladies, Grab a Tissue.

Nights and Rodanthe delivered. It was exactly like the book and exactly how I envisioned it. For the third time, Hollywood has nailed a Nicholas Sparks book.  This one just happens to be my favorite. I hated the movie version of Message in a Bottle, but A Walk to Remember and The Notebook were fantastic. [...]

Hurricane Humor.

It’s been an interesting week, I can say that. Learning to live without power has been fun. Lucky for me, the office is up and running and I’ve got power and my beloved internet. Oh, internet. How I missed you so! Honestly- it hasn’t been that bad. The weather is beautiful and cool so living [...]

Baseball, High Heels and The City.

Dear Houston, I’d like to have summers like they have in New Jersey. 70′s, low humidity and breezy. Can you do that for me? kthnxbye. We spent the weekend in the New Jersey/New York area. We visited Mike’s family and friends, saw a Yankees game, went to a chi-chi wedding and had some drama along [...]

Baseball, Ghetto-tastic and Kumbaya

Oh what did I create when I gave Mike that little Flip Mino digital video camera? It’s his new bestest friend. We hit the Astros game last night with some of my work people and Mike decided to make a couple of little videos. Now, we had met at my house for some tasty beverages [...]

60 People in Cabos. How Can You Not Have Fun?

Cabos was awesome. Beautiful, fun, relaxing… just awesome. Even the plane ride was awesome. We were greeted by my parents, Seth and Savannah and her parents with cocktails and goody-bags. We then went to our rooms and dropped off our stuff. We had a mini-fridge that was filled everyday with Corona, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi, Sierra [...]

The Newest Chapter of What The Fuck

Mike and I went to the Midnight showing of The Dark Knight on opening day. Originally it was because were going to be out of town. Normally we’d just go Friday night like sane folks. We ended up not going out of town but we already had the tickets. So, off we went. The place [...]

One Week

At this time next week, I’ll be lounging on the beach in Cabo San Lucas with a drink in hand, doing nothing but chillin’ like a villain. Mike and I haven’t been on a vacation since we went down the shore a couple of years ago and he doesn’t even count that. Had my brother [...]

Is it July 9th, yet?

Right now, my co-worker Neal is laying behind my chair asking me not to roll back to fast so that we don’t have an emergency room incident on our hands. Cuz that would blow a little bit. It’s 12:34 AM. I’ve been here since a little after 8. AM. He was here earlier than me. [...]

Sex, Tears, Laughter and Popcorn

I’ve been so non-bloggy feeling lately. I’m totally exhausted from work and life in general. In the last couple of weeks, we re-painted the bedroom again. Mike was so happy. He told me I could move out if I decided to paint anything else. That’s love right there. Anyway. We did that, somewhat organized the [...]
