Wow, it’s been a while. Since I loked myself in the office I have also locked myself OUT of my apartment building. That was awesome, especially combined with the I don’t know any of my neighbors fact. I was very lucky to find someone still up and willing to let me in.

Then I went to SC to visit The Monogram Queen and her family. It was a blast – just what I needed! We drank a lot and I went to the races (car) for the first time. Let’s just say, racing is way to stressful for this yankee! I even won a shirt at the race track the 2nd night dancing to the YMCA, drunk Bella was out that night! Oh my, haven’t drank like that in quite some time, I was able to maintain my rockstar status. It was a lot of fun, and I really enjoyed myself, thanks for a great weekend!

Last weekend I went to MI for a family reunion thing. Had the opportunity to see one of my old friends who I rarely see. It was an interesting evening. Went on a booze cruise thing, got dropped on my ass, met a DJ named G*ravy and got to drive the boat. All in all, wasn’t a bad evening. The next day was the family reunion thing, it was lovely – my family didn’t know who I was. They thought I was my sister. AWESOME. Especially since we look nothing a like and you know, don’t know anything about either one of us. Anyway, it was an ok time. It is just akward being around people you know (and are related to) but don’t really know….. But now that I’ve seen them I don’t have to see them again for another 10 years. It is what it is though. Nothing you can do about it, ya know?

I also went to a sushi making class, and it was fun! I need to pick up stuff so I can make it. I was actually impressed at how easy it was. The class left a little to be desired, I think it would have been fun to take with people I knew – the instructor was a little disorganized and I think some of it could have been better but really for what I paid for it, can’t complain too much.

Last week TMP and I went to a book signing by Jen Lancaster, I was surprised at how busy it was this year. Seriously there had to be triple the number of people there this year. It was very cool to see how her popularity grew in the last year. Can’t wait for next year!

That’s the brief update, I will do my best to not abandon the blog, at least once a week I will try to post. Life has been crazy with work and all – same old, same old. You know how it goes, but I’m still around, you just have to know how to find me!

  1. Dude. Jen Lancaster was fun. At least we weren’t crazy like those insta-friends behind us who thought they were BFFs with Jen Lancaster. Yeah, like she would hang out with that kind of weirdos!

    Can’t wait to make sushi some time! FUN!
