Nothing New

This week went buy really quick. Had a belated birthday dinner with Caroline on Tuesday and caught up on 3 months worth of goings-on, etc. Heard rumors that Toby is supposed to be back in town but I have been hearing them for a few weeks now and there has been no siting as of yet. I am supposed to catch up with him and Caroline soon reminding me of the old El Torrito and red boots days. I wonder if he ever got his car back? hum? Caught up on some TV, well, tried too, I kept falling asleep. I think I have tried to watch Journeyman 3 times now. Oh well, thank god for replay and the ability to take your time. Talked to El Jefe for three hours on Thursday and another hour last night He tried to convince me to go to this big where house party but I was dog tired. Don't know why I didn't do anything all week except work. Couldn't believe I spoke to him for 3 hours, for 3 hours I should have at least gotten a personal appearance. Supposed to get tacos with him soon. Supposed to have dinner with Marie this week but alas, I found out my hubby has a couple of days off next week before starting a new gig so excited to actual spend weekday time with him. Today Brian's dad is coming for a visit to see the new house. Have dinner reservations at Il Camilo which I heard really good things about. The best thing about Eagle Rock is that I have yet to find a bad place to eat. In fact all the places have been extremely good. Tomorrow, meeting up with Susan and meeting the famous air force pilot that she met at my bacherlotte party. I so want her to get married so I can say I set someone up at my bacherlotte party in Vegas at a strip club. Well, I really didn't set them up but I was the reason she was in the strip club. P.S. still lovin the new JEEP. Although the coppers pulled up behind me at my house the other night and I had to prove to them I didn't steal my car. Talk about weird. How would little ole me know how to steal a car?

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...

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 ...

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 ...
