A Chance Meeting

After work on Friday, I had two functions to go to. A vendor party at a printers and a birthday party. Naturally after a long week at work I was tired an promised myself I would only stay a half hour at the work function and then go home. Why is it when you are going to a party you don't want to be at you end up being there longer than you had planned. My 1/2 hour turned into 3 hours. If I hadn't turned to a girl on my left and said "You look familar do I now you/" I would have been home before 8pm. But instead I asked the question and was out till past midnight. The girl turned to me and said "No, I don't think so." That turned into some small chat and an introduction to her friend. We somehow got on the topic of moving and the previous person's mail. The girl confided that she had gotten the most beautiful wedding invitation in the mail but that it wasn't addressed to her it didn't take a genius to figure out that she had committed mail fraud and had opened the invite. She went on to say that she didn't stop there. She ended up googling the couple and the upscale town outside of New York. I couldn't help to be taken in by the couple and encouraged the two girls to crash the wedding. After all if they could afford to send out customized invitations on expensive die-cut paper than they must be rich and inviting hundreds of people. No one would notice two wedding crashers. I spent the next two hours chatting it with this girl and her two friends. When it came time for the raffle the 4 of us girls won! Can you believe that in a room of 100 people all 4 of us won. We couldn't believe our lucky so we decided to each buy lottery tickets. 9pm came rolling around and I told the girls I needed to go to another party. I had had so much fun talking to them that I asked them to come along and they did. I never got on so weel with strangers before much less three girls. They met me at Formosa Cafe and we partied there for several hours. For an evening that was supposed to be a quick stop, it sure turned into a long one and a fun one. I love having those kinds of days when anything could happen, it makes a gal very excited about life.

Vaccine Part 1

As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen.  If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public.  Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me.  Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....

Surfing Goat Diary

We left the store and headed to the Surfing Goat Diary, again, this was a second trip for us but what was different this time is that we scheduled an hour long tour. Last time we arrive right before closing and were rushed. We spent a fair amount of time there exploring before the tour. We tried their cheesecake, we met the cats and dogs that roamed the place, we played in the playground, we pet and fed the baby goats that were penned up, and pursued the little store. Penny was eager to get her hands on the chocolate goat milk truffles. I must admit they did look good. I had my eyes on a t-shirt and a mug. Our tour started at 3:30pm that day and we met all the goats and learned all about the farm. But the most exciting part of the tour was getting the opportunity to milk the goats. Penny was quite a good milker. A friend later reminded me that Penny was breastfed (wink, wink). By the time the tour ended we were extremely hot. Maui was hot but also humid. We were ready to...

How Was Your Weekend?

Does a Monday morning ever go by without someone asking you how your weekend was? I got to work and was bombarded with the question and this week I didn't have a thing to say. Didn't feel good the whole weekend so we did nothing except managed to go grocery shopping, make a trip to Target and watch several epsiodes of Quantum Leap and Battlestar Gallactica. I found that when you don't have anything to say it's good to have at least a change in your appearance to deflect the pitty looks for not having done anything on your weekend. Luckily, I had a new hair cut and color job so I was able to skip the fact that I didn't have any exciting plans to report. Last week I awoke with that I can't this hair anymore attitude and booked an appointment. I went back to bright blonde as opposed to darker blonde with brown streaks I had for the wedding. It was refreshing to go get your hair done after spending the weekend in pain. Luckily for me, the new hair color must hav...
