The Divine Secrets of a Southern Diva

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

I really, really need to blog more.

It’s so sad, really. I love to write.  I just don’t seem to have the energy to do anything remotely creative when I get home. It’s like it all gets sucked out of me at work.

BUT, I’m going to make myself do it more often. If I don’t, y’all have my permission to beat my ass.

So, lets bullet point the highlights of life since I last blogged, shall we?

Jersey Vacation- Lots of fun. The shore was beautiful, as was Mike’s aunt and uncle’s condo which they so awesomely let us use.  Mike’s cousin’s wedding was a blast, too. I got all sorts of tore up. GO FIGURE. I blame Mike, though. He was bringing me one vodka cranberry after another on a mostly empty stomach. How am I supposed to control myself like that? That’s like drinking candy. It was great spending time with his family. We don’t get to do it near enough.

My niece said “douche”. I didn’t get to see it, but it was a proud moment for Nanny.

Tom Delay left DWTS due to fractured feet. I can’t believe he lasted that long. Whoever voted for him is dumb. There, I said it.

Danielle and Scott came visit. We had some nice lunches and dinners and threw some darts. It makes me wish we all lived closer.

I got to hang out with Meg and Josh while I’m in Indiana this week.  We had so much fun- they took me to a fabulous restaurant where we relaxed and had a long dinner and talked until they kicked us out. It was great and I hope they take me up on my offer to come to Houston!

Anniversary Weekend 005

MOST IMPORTANTLY… Mikey’s art exhibit opened!

I’m so proud of him! The photos looks amazing (and were the best there in my humble, unbiased opinion).  The whole family went and then had a lovely dinner at Gravitas. It was a fantastic night and I really couldn’t be more proud of him.  Go read his blog to see his photos and how excited he is!

That’s it in a nutshell. I’m enjoying my time in Indiana, learning a lot, enjoying the fall weather and, of course, eating. I get to go to another conference in Nov at Microsoft where Coca-Cola’s Social Media Director is a key note. EEEEKKKK. That makes me giddy.

Promise to try to write more! Honest.

Heart,

Ali

    I keep saying the same thing. I tell everyone how much fun I had and they ask what we did. I say ate at Chuy’s and played darts. It was friggin fun. You have to come visit next!!!


  2. No, Danielle. You and Scott should move to Houston. It’s at least kind of normal. Louisiana is Looney Tunes.

    The photo exhibit was so much fun. I need to get more involved in stuff like this.

    Also, yes. Blog more, Ali. Every week.

  3. Meg

    Lol, they literally kicked us out…kindly. We had so much fun, and we are definitely going to make it down.

    Yay! The return of the Diva!


  5. Well thank freakin’ Jeebus that you’re back. I was beginning to go through the withdrawals.
