Talked to M & D until 1:30AM last night. Realized for the 100th time that they are my friends.  My friends that unconditionally love and understand me.  My friends that have wisdom and resources and problem relieving skills.  My friends that can alleviate my stress by simply listening and staying quiet. So Cool.  Honestly So…

It’s all about: Bare Essentials Makeup.  So easy even I can apply it right. Breyers Oreo Cookie Ice Cream.  Target has it.  I eat a scoop every break.  Not gonna lie, it’s one of the few full-fat, full-sugar foods I indulge in.  Love every bite. Crazy by Gnarls Barkley.  Might be the best song of…

Am home from work. Am grateful for email. Am excited for Penny’s wedding. Am craving Strawberry Twizzlers which are for sure not in the house. Am anxious to brush my teeth, wash my face and JUMP into bed with A Long Way Down. Am saying Good-Night.

Very busy rest of July. This weekend is Penny’s wedding at Pajaro Dunes.  So excited to celebrate. July 18 & 19 I am down in LA.  Robbie has orientation and I am going to see the girls and visit the 9-0. July 26 is Round 2 of the tooth surgery adventure.  This time we are…

Work: Learning to be strong.  Have really been forced to evaluate how I lead.  And to be honest?  I am confident in my abilities.  And that is a good feeling.  Something that is important to remember. Damn.  Hate being so vague.  Bottom line is that I am facing challenges.  And I am rising to meet…

Same location.  Same girls.  Same idea.  Better camera.  Good times.

Drive to Berk.  Get dressed.  Get dinner.  Get ready.  Drink a little.  Walk a little.  Show IDs.  Buy a pitcher.  Find a table.  Find a quarter.  Play a little.  Laugh a lot.  Drink a lot.  Buy more beer.  Get hungry.  Get shady Mexican food to-go.  Walk home.  Get in PJs.  Eat shady Mexican food.  Fall…
