I know it's early still, but then again, I was asleep by 9:30, so technically not that bad. Gonna work on the scarf that never wants to finish, and then ( Read more... )

Last night at Kadan was FABULOUS!!!!!!! I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate the b-days of shamafrog, sarahredhead and (in case you guys didn't realize it) mikeclaytablet. The only problem was I did more dancing last night than in a very long time and between Kris Kross Jump Jump and House of Pain Jump, my thighs have begun to hate me, but at least they waited til after ( Read more... )

but today, I resisted the ever tempting chocolate donut. Oh yes, it sat upon my desk, delicately ensconced in a paper towel, awaiting the moment for me to take it in my hands. It was just a 1/2 step down from my favorite - it's chocolate cake with a lovely glaze (favorite is chocolate glaze), unhindered by sprinkles, nuts or coconut. And ( Read more... )

This year things are a little tighter for x-mas shopping, so I informed the lovely boys who do my hair that this year's gifts would be of the baked variety. One was kind enough to say he would eat whatever, and my other fella said he's cool with whatever, but that he liked coconut, caramel and nuts ( Read more... )

I have this friend, Debbie, who I've known for about 15 years now, and we still remain great friends, even though we only see each other a few times a year, and since she had a baby a year and a half ago, that time has diminished, or is occupied with baby in tow (nothing wrong with that, but not as easy to just "hang with the girls" when there's a ( Read more... )

Mmmm, fall is upon us and I sit here wrapped up in a two person throw to keep toasty ( Read more... )

Why is it that whenever I go eat at my favorite little Mexican place by my work (El Portal, in the Ralph's shopping center off Friar's and Mission Center), I only want *more* Mexican food later?? Is it something in the chicken, the chips perhaps? All I know is soft tacos sound really good right now, despite the ever-so-tasty ceasar pepita salad I ( Read more... )

Body not happy with the beer from dinner, I guess. Even tho' I fell asleep on the couch by 9:30, as is my routine lately, it woke me up just be 2 a.m. to see how things are goin'. Great, now can I go back to sleep? Maybe it was too disturbed by "Manos-Hands of Fate", MST3K version. Not enough beer in the world ( Read more... )

And yet, awake by 6 a.m. Last night was my co's holiday party, which I got tp be the planner for (big surprise....), and after all the preparation and cleanup, I'm more sore than after one of my events. Up and down stairs, taking in supplies, taking out trash, at least I should have burnt off all the crap I ate yesterday (a client sent us almond ( Read more... )

I "worked" from home on Wednesday, did actually get some work done, just not as much as planned. No loss. For turkey day, it was low-key hang out with one of my sister's and her son, had salad, lasagna and my crustless, sugar free pumpkin pie (which was actually tasty!), and a little "Babe" for our viewing pleasure. Got to see the Bah Ram Ewe ( Read more... )
