Look Who I Met at BlogHer Last Night

This list is based purely on business cards and two others I remember chatting with…

Clair @ clairnation.blogspot.com & endorphineaddtict.blogspot.com - does a local San Francisco based blog with lots of photos
Jessica @ ItalyLogue.com - she’s a travel writer that writes all about Italy. Great job or what?
Sarah @ findableblogs.com - she does blog design
Jennifer @ [...]

Greetings From San Francisco!

Here’s a brief tour of my hotel room here in San Francisco. I’m waiting on my wine opener and crackers now - scratch that, they’re bringing me chocolate instead! Woohoo! Gotta love hotels with loyalty programs!
Trying to decide if I want to head on over to Fisherman’s Wharf on my own or just hang low [...]

BlogHer Here I Come!!!

Well, I leave tomorrow, but same thing. I mean I don’t know if I’ll have time to post something before I go tomorrow since I have to drop the pupster off before heading out. And today, man, well today I still have a list of things to do…deal with our newspaper subscription (neither one of [...]

And Now a Yay! Moment

One of my good friends from Spain just called!!! We used to teach together back in Atlanta. The year before I moved away, she got into the teaching abroad program. Since then, I’ve moved twice and she’s lived and taught in three countries - Turkey, Peru and now Spain.
I’ve been lucky enough to visit her [...]

You Got Mud on Your Face, You Big Disgrace

somebody better put you back into your place!

Yeah, yeah, so I’m a bit of a Queen fan. Actually, I tend to forget just how much I love Queen until I hear them on the radio. And well, then I just can’t seem to stop singing along and dancing in the driver’s seat. ‘Cuz Queen, well, [...]

They Say You Can Never Go Home

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 [...]

I’m Back & Feeling Better

In fact, I decided to not even bother with the visit to the acupuncturist. I do feel that much better. My head still gets a tad stuffy (or so it seems), but there’s no more pounding and pressure. So as far as I’m concerned, I’m better
Now as for the SATC movie…I don’t want [...]

Six and the City

First and foremost, thank you Miss Attitude for posting this yesterday. It cracked me up and make my day. To get you all in the mood for Sex and the City this weekend I bring you “the girls” age six (no hype, no plot given away)…

I’ve decided that I’m going to see the [...]

Not Quite Wordless Wednesday: Sonoma Edition

Consider yourself warned…this is a long post, with photos.

Sonoma was fun. Sonoma was cold. Sonoma was rainy. Herbie was awesome! Really, that’s the trip right there. Fun, but cold and rainy with a great show. We didn’t get to do pretty much anything on our brief list of things [...]

Sex and the City

I’m feeling a little crappy today (I really, really hope this doesn’t turn into anything), so instead of a deep post, I thought I’d share my SATC thoughts. Two things to keep in mind…one, I tend to get caught up in all the hype around certain movies and then just end up sadly disappointed and [...]
