I had to drive to Los Angeles for a meeting last week. Though I live in Orange County, I’ve spent very little time in LA. I recognize some of the street names that line the 5 Freeway, but only from hearing them on traffic reports or because they are famous–like Hollywood Blvd. When my meeting […]
It’s a Mad, Mad, “Mad Men” world or at least that’s what everyone says
I have already professed my devotion to “Pop Waffle,” the only celebrity news I can muster-up the interest to watch–aside from The Soup (watch “iPhone 3G”) , of course. But when the latest episode showed up in my subscriber line on YouTube, I knew I had to parade it in front of you once more. […]
Bowling, it’s the new bowling
On Friday night Larry and I went with friends to dinner at The White House and then off to bowl at “300 Anaheim” (I know, tragic name) in the Garden Walk. I bowled a few times as a teenager, but was firmly a roller skating girl and had little time for a “sport” with no […]
How to impress friends with pigs in a blanket
My friend Andrea and her family came by to visit last week. Andrea and I were friends in high school, and moved to San Francisco together for college. She stayed up in Northern California, so I only get to see her every three or four years. Whenever kids come over to our house I always […]
Today’s snapshot: Hmmm, decisions, decisions…
The Orange County Fair
Our house is a very, very, very fine farm
After settling in we people-types at our house, I found places for all of our pets. This is where the gecko lizard and the snake set up camp. I wanted it to look like a scientific study lab. I think the place we found on our landing is the perfect spot. Hazel and George cozied […]
Kathleen and Angeleen, the Orange County twins
I will tell you the whole story later, but this is a picture from last night. It’s me with the famous Orange County twins (not you J&J), Kathleen and Angeleen, at The White House in Anaheim. They were so sweet and loved to have their picture taken–both great qualities. (Why do I get the feeling […]
Mother Nature: No match for Twitter
Yesterday we had an earthquake of questionable magnitude here in Orange County. I say “questionable” because the number keeps changing. I am just going to go with magnitude- 5.4 because it backs up my actions in the following story of “The Quake of ’08.” (Insert flashy graphic with a flipping montage of pictures of books […]
Dude, I’m from AT&T
My family and I moved over this last month to a new house. For reasons only known by the old owners, there was no phone service at the house. (…I see you nodding off…I am going somewhere with this story–promise.) After arranging for AT &T to come by and fix the problem, I let the […]
Sleep Tight: Lullabies
I like to make CD’s as gifts for my family and friends. I usually make a copy of this iMix I made Sleep Tight: Lullabies…(Click here to go to iTunes) and give it with a baby gift to the new parents. This iMIx is packed with songs from Rickie Lee Jones to Death Cab for […]
