No Lollipop for the Hub

The hubby got the news a while back from our dentist that he needed to get his wisdom teeth pulled. Not because anything was wrong but because as you get older the teeth pretty much like where they have been and don't like to come out easy. He thought this week would be a good week to do do the deed because he had a week off before starting his new TV editing gig called TEN YEARS YOUNGER. So he called me up at work on Tuesday and asked if I could be his designated driver. When you have oral surgery they drug you up and you must have a driver wait for you at the office while they take the teeth out. I didn't mind as I got out of the office for a half of day plus he seemed a bit nervous so I wanted to be there for him. He went in at about 9:30AM on Wed and came out about 11:10AM. His checks were puffy. Following close behind him was a lady who gave me a bunch of paperwork on how to care for him. I had already filled his two prescriptions so we immediately went home. He was a little bit in shock as he hadn't realized he'd be knocked out. So he was a bit disturbed that he awoke in a different room then where he started (insert funny joke here). He appeared to have all his clothes on right so I didn't worry. Got him home and put him in bed and forbid him to drive anywhere. I don't think I needed to worry as he was still knocked out when I got home at 8pm. Getting your wisdom teeth out sucks cuz you can't eat. Thank god Jamba Juice is close by! I think the only thing the poor guy had to eat for two days were the two pineapple flavor Jamba drinks. He was down for about two days. Luckily he was up for going out last night. He was able to join Rhonda's movie club and we took in a movie, cocktails and dinner at the Arclight. It was nice to have a date night with the hubby. Today we are just working on the house. Then we have to pull the Halloween costumes out of the garage as we have a big party to go to in West Hollywood at a club called Pearl. One of my vendors has an annual party each year. Actually it was at his party in a where house downtown in 2003 where I first made out with Brian in a corner until the LAPD broke up the party (boy, was that a good party). So I am looking forward to finding a good corner tonight.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of ...

Buffalo Wild Wings

When I was going to Michigan State University, my friends and I would always go to BW3's for hot wings. They always had a variety of flavored wings from Honey BBQ to steaming hot, hot, death wings. Wings and a beer were just the thing to satisfy a busy student's appetite. When we frequented BW3's it was a dive bar but by the time my brother graduated from MSU they swapped locations for a building across the street and turned the name to Buffalo Wild Wings and the restaurant became more like a chain thing. Well, color me shocked the other day when we went to the movies and I saw a Buffalo Wild Wings being built in the AMC Burbank 16 complex. Apparently, after looking on their website they are one of the fastest top 10 chains in the US. So of course I had to introduce the hubby to one of my favorite college treats. I don't think he is so much a fan of chicken wings so we got boneless chicken wings a.k.a. tasty little chicken chunks in two of the flavored sauc...

The Lost Art of Letter Writing

This week I was the recepient of two postcards. In the age of e-mailing and blogging this is a rare occurrrance. It's not that people don't write anymore it's just they are doing it in different forms and I think in less personal forms. It's kinda sad when you think about it. For me, there is nothing better then getting a hand written letter in the mail because it means someone was specifically thinking about you. Writing a letter these days takes a lot of effort when GMail is so near. I mean a person has to pick out stationary (if they even have any on hand), find time to sit down and compose a letter (and who has a spare half hour these days?), find or buy a stamp and actually walk the letter to the mailbox. With all this effort, no wonder people email these days! My girlfriend Becky and I joke that the United States Postal Service has become "Snail Mail." Most times before a letter gets to us these days we already know the information inside ...
