[/caption] My husband I met 8 years ago this past Memorial Day weekend. I was out here in LA at a party, sort of a grad school graduation gift to myself and well…there he was. We dated, long distance for the first [...]

You Can Get Over Your Break up in 21 Days!!

LA Blogger Gal — Tue, 12 May 2009 17:40:11 +0000

My real-life, good friend Lisa Steadman, relationship coach extraordinaire and best selling author, has a brand new book coming out today that will seriously rock your world if you’re going through a breakup or struggling to heal and move on from past heartbreak. It’s called It’s A Breakup, Not A Breakdown The Workbook: A 21 [...]

We Have a Party!

Or more to the point, I finally have my restaurant reserved. It will be out on this amazing patio. I’m SO excited! I have to stop by there tonight to go over the menu and talk booze. From there I can order the cake. And then take a deep breath. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Our anniversary weekend [...]

Birthday Season Begins Here in LA Blogger Gal Land

LA Blogger Gal — Tue, 24 Mar 2009 17:27:20 +0000

Yes, I said “Birthday Season” and yes, I capitalized. You see, we have eight birthdays between today and the first week in May (me! yay!) and yes, that’s only the beginning. There’s easily another 5 or more to get us through until September. But two of the three most important men in my life have their [...]

Valentine’s Day Schmalentine’s Day

LA Blogger Gal — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 23:19:38 +0000

I meant to write this post on Saturday, you know, Valentine’s Day, but um…well, I didn’t. Well, then I mean to write it on Sunday and well, that didn’t happen either. Then I came into the office about two hours ago saying to my husband “I’m going to blog now” and well, found other things [...]

Stuff Like This Totally Makes Me Cry

LA Blogger Gal — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 18:02:42 +0000

I’m often moved by the plight of homelessness. More often than not though, I’m not really prompted to DO something. I give on the freeway off ramps when I can – water, money, food. I always smile to let the folks know that they’re not invisible. I donate our food to [...]

Nothing Beats a Good Snuggle With the Boys

LA Blogger Gal — Mon, 17 Nov 2008 05:47:15 +0000

We got home late last night, after midnight. By the time we went to bed it was 1:30 or so. Before we could even think about settling down, the cat demanded that we give him the attention he felt he deserved. Of course, by the time we went to bed, he was meowing up a [...]

Just ONE Lipstick? Seriously?!?!

LA Blogger Gal — Thu, 16 Oct 2008 18:08:35 +0000

A while back I was watching an episode of Monk. On this episode, the serial killer would always take his victim’s one lipstick. The whole time I was watching this (and now, months later) I can’t get over the one lipstick thing. I don’t know about you, but I have a bit of a lip product [...]

They Say You Can Never Go Home

LA Blogger Gal — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 14:47:27 +0000

Well, it’s that time. We leave within the hour. I told myself when I left years ago (back in ‘89) that I’d never go back. Well, not exactly never, but only go back 1) if someone died and I needed to be there or 2) when my friend Matt got married and [...]

It Doesn’t Mean I Don’t Appreciate Him

LA Blogger Gal — Fri, 09 May 2008 17:24:27 +0000

But I just had to throw the flowers away. I waited until last night to tell him so he wouldn’t be surprised. He knows that they’ve been messing with my allergies this whole time. I just couldn’t take it any more. So when the early blooms started dying I told him that I was going [...]
