Why, HELLO!!! Despite popular belief, I am still updating this thing. It's just that I'm so l-a-z-y. And the longer I wait to update, the more I have to do...and the lazier I feel about it...and then I put it off some more...it's a catch-22 really. But, since recently I sit on my ass all day with nothing to do (more on that later) I have no excuse to not update.
So here we go...here's the past four months in a pistachio shell (I would say nutshell, but I'm anti-walnuts...for obvious reasons)
In July, we head to LA for Thomas and Anna's wedding.
The night before, we saw a man on the streets of LA getting his photo taken by a small crowd. I don't know who he is but with my skillz of deduction: unreasonably tall man + black + getting photo taken = famous athlete. (Feel free to identify him in the comments section -- I would actually be curious as to who he is)
The next afternoon was the wedding. Congratulations Thomas and Ana!!
Reunited with high school friends Sue and Jennie. Yes, I understand I'm a giant in this photo. Stop judging me. Maybe I'm standing on a footstool. Actually, it's rollerskates...yah...rollerskates.
After the weekend in LA, one of my best friends, Sue, head to the Bay Area to spend some time with me! (and her brother, but more importantly, me : P)
We met up with my cute college friend, Owen, for brunch in Sausalito.
And then spent the rest of the afternoon getting cultured at SF MoMA. Come back, Sue!! And Owen! You both need to move here and spend more time with me ASAP : )
And then comes August...
As mentioned in my last post, my sister Jennifer had a beautiful baby girl. It was a shockingly fast delivery (100% natural too!) And Jennifer was so upbeat and energetic afterward. Very unusual....very amazing..and yet, very unusual.
Here's her site for updated photos of her baby: http://www.xanga.com/yellowhead. Yes, she got even cuter! (Both Jennifer and the baby)
My Mom flew out to California to help out with the newborn.
Then, Alice and I smuggled my Mom to the Bay Area to treat her to some of the best food this area has to offer -- Koi Palace seafood hotpot.
At the end of August, Eddie and I head to LA again for another wedding. This wedding was GORGEOUS. So elegant and classy.
Congratulations Phil and Jane!! Jane is an absolutely stunning bride.
I love their cake. Perfect design and taste. I honored its design with this photo. I honored its taste by eating two slices.
Finally in September, another one of my best friends, Denise, and her husband Dave moved to the Bay Area. They are currently living in our house while their own house is getting built nearby : )
Ta-daaaa! Welcome Denise and Dave!! (this photo seemed appropriate for their introduction)
For Eddie's birthday, the four of us took a flying trapeze class. Luckily, Eddie's old, crickity 31yo bones made it through the class.
And my trapeze video debut!!
And to cinch the birtrhday celebration, I spoiled Eddie with a novelty FOUR FOOT BURRITO.
Although I still have a lot to update, I want to end this entry with a bang...so this entry shall end here. BANG!! BIG BURRITO! BANG BANG!!
