I had a dream last night that I won over $501 at a casino. So of course, while attending my niece’s regional cheer competition I was just certain I’d win the 50/50 raffle.
Yeah well, I didn’t.
What’s the point of dreaming of winning big then?! Talk about disappointing. Well, at least her team won and they’re [...]
You Know it’s Fall in LA When…
* You’d much rather have anything made from pumpkins - especially the pumpkin line over at Starbucks. Nothing thrills me like a pumpkin spice latte - non-fat, of course.
* You can find cranberry orange muffins or breads in the local bakeries. Yum!
* The Christmas lights show up lining the sides of Zoo Drive in Griffith [...]
Flickr Rocks (and other random thoughts)
A while back, one of my Sonoma photos was chosen for use in the Schmap guide. Today I got an email that yet another one of my photos was up for consideration for the San Diego guide. It was one of my Hotel del interior photos. Pretty cool if I do say so myself considering [...]
Hanging Out in Santa Monica
Last night the hubby and I headed out to the Santa Monica Civic Center to see Rilo Kiley. I’ve seen them a handful of times now and each time I come away awed by their performance. Last night was no exception. The had a great mix of old stuff and new stuff [...]
Human Nature Sometimes Just Fascinates Me
There’s a very interesting section in today’s LA Times regarding aging and happiness. It basically reports that as we get older, we tend to be happier, in particular in our much later years. It goes on to say that the average 75 year-old is much happier and more content with their life than [...]
I’m a Dork, I Admit it
I should also admit that I’m drinking a yummy glass of Merlot and I’m feeling a bit of a buzz, but well, that’s not the issue here. The issue is that I’m apparently not nearly as raunchy or risque as I might like to think.
Bummer. I’ll need to work on that.

Let’s Go Meet Crazy Aunt Purl
If anyone would like to join me at the Grove to see/hear Crazy Aunt Purl later today, you’re more than welcome. We can do dinner or drinks or coffee too! And if it helps to motivate and excite you, she’ll also be doing a raffle for a divorce gift basket (as seen here).
Come on, what [...]
It’s 2:30 and I’m Still in My PJs
Ack!! In my defense, I’ve been busy, busy, busy. My site had some malaware issues so I’ve been dealing with that over the past couple of days. Let it be known, I am the beauty, not the brains behind our website and tech-crap is not my strength by any means. But I can fake it [...]
I Learn Something New Every Day
I came in here to write about what I dumb ass I was not all too long ago - always a good topic. I’ll admit it, I thought that Banff National Park was in British Columbia. Funny thing, I just now learned that while it is most definitely NOT in British Columbia, it is exactly [...]
Mi Casa is Bueno, but that Casa is Mucho Bueno*
I love our apartment. I love our street and neighborhood. I love the wall I painted and think it really helps to make the place look not so much like an apartment and more like a home.
I love and appreciate our landlords (though there are some other challenges like their crazy, psycho, 95ish [...]
