oo look, it's me!

Monday, July 31st, 2006

During the giant summer project from hell, I've come across many an entertaining picture... my dad and his first girlfriend (oo la la, but my momma is WAY cuter), my grandma in a swimsuit (with a note from my grandpa on the back that reads "you broke the camera" :) ...

ahhh sangriahhhhhh

Monday, July 31st, 2006

Block parties are fun little morsels of drunken goodness. Particularly when EVERYBODY gets tanked and you spend a good twenty minutes debating if him and her and him (who snuck out for a few minutes) came back stoned. Unanimous decision: yep. So J made white sangria and another friend of ours made ...

damn phone

Friday, July 28th, 2006

Several weeks ago I dropped my cellphone for the, oh, say, 30th time, and a little part broke off. It was a small piece of gray plastic that holds the battery in. Fortunately, I was able to shove the two halves back in and voila! the battery stayed on. I dropped ...

summer reading

Thursday, July 27th, 2006

My cousin called to ask why I haven't blogged lately... and I told her the truth. "Well, nothing's going on, lol." Generally my day revolves around going to the beach, responding to emails and phone calls and going to interviews. I'm so tan I seriously look like I am Mediterranean. (J and I ...

cuervo and the box

Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

We escaped this morning, and have spent the past couple of hours here at the airport. Drinking. We all got doubles... but not on purpose. Apparently my dad meant to order a Corona with a lime... a slip of the tongue resulted in a double Cuervo and a Corona... with four ...

35 minutes

Tuesday, July 25th, 2006

It took me 35 minutes to get from my house to sitting at the gate on Saturday—parked, checked in, through security and with a cup of coffee. I LOVE my little airport. I've been in TX for a couple of days. We had a military burial this morning and it was really... ...

lightning flashes

Wednesday, July 19th, 2006

We had a ridiculous summer storm last night, filled with lightning and gushing rain... for five hours. My bedroom has a drainpipe right outside the window. Grrr.... hence the reason I know it started aroun 10ish and continued until past 3AM. Damn rain. To make matters even more fun, my crazy ass ...

rest in peace

Monday, July 17th, 2006

My mom's dad died when she was young, so I've only ever known three of my grandparents. My nana (my mom's mom), who was one of my closest friends, died three years ago this month. My dad's mom died last May. This morning my dad's dad passed away in his sleep. It's weird knowing ...

goose juice

Sunday, July 16th, 2006

I could sing an ode to Cape Cod. It'd be all boats and quiet inlets and FANTASTIC fish and crab and oh yeah, fruity drinks. Mmmm.. Goose Juice. If you've never had fresh squeezed grapefruit juice and Grey Goose, on the rocks, get thee to a juicer, because that stuff ...

make a decision

Wednesday, July 12th, 2006

Sometimes I find myself completely devoid of interesting content, and it's those times that I think to blog would be pointless. Then there are other times when so many different things hit me all at once and I find myself craving an outlet and yet completely stumped. Should I write about... no, ...
