Hello, Crystal!


I've been remiss in my Crystal Gayle hair spotting duties lately.  But thank goodness for my CGH (that's "Crystal Gayle hair", of course) sidekick Elsie.  She's always on the prowl - and armed with a camera.

I believe this "beauty" was spotted during Elsie's recent visit to New Hampshire.  I shudder to think what her shower drain must look like...  

Weekend Silliness

Kicked off the weekend by spending quality time with Michelle on Saturday afternoon.  We went to her friend's housewarming party in Alameda.  The place was super cute (who knew?) but I couldn't help hearing my dad's voice in my head saying "Never live in Alameda - it's just landfill.  You're in trouble if there's an earthquake".  

Anyhoo - we giggled and socialized.  All in all - a very good afternoon.  And then...


...it was off to the city for dinner with Michael and Shawn at L'Osteria.  Dinner was nothing but silliness and laughs.  Seriously.  And the food was hella good, too.

From dinner we went to see Nicky at his bar tending debut at LaLola.  He did a great job.  Oh - and the sangria was delicious (and flowing freely).  

The next day I spent the afternoon with Matt.  We had mai tais at Kona Club (the tiki bar in my neighborhood).

It was a great weekend.  But then I woke up Monday morning feeling sick.  And here it is Thursday evening and I'm still sick.  Was it the weekend booze that did this to me?  Nah - it can't be.

Old Spice? Yes, please.

This is one of my favorite scents in the entire world. I'm serious.

I'm sick :(

Currently curled up on the couch (well, it's more of a love seat, actually) with a cup of tea and a box of tissues.  Ugh...

"I love my tail in these jeans!"

FYI - Tisha is at the top of my Christmas list this year.

Welcome to Waffle Country

Visited Waffle Country this morning (including a brief stop in the Bacon Barrio).  Met Denise and Jennie there for a delightful brunch.  It's a semi-regular outing for us.  Because we love this place.  Sure - we're always the youngest (and loudest) ones there.  But what's wrong with that?

The best part about a visit to Waffle Country is that you can choose a 1/2 waffle as your breakfast bread choice.  You heard me.  As Denise says "It's breakfast dessert!".  Yes, D.  It most certainly is.

This morning's breakfast was full of the usual (coffee and cackling).  But what made it even better was Jennie and her Rain Man ways.  I never knew she had the skills - but she does.  And she's not afraid to use them.

I need to get knocked up - ASAP

I know...I KNOW! This just made my ovaries smile.

So - raise your hand if you want to be my baby daddy. G'head - raise them up.

OK, now. You in the blue shirt - it's your lucky day ;)
