blah blah blah...

I feel so uninspired to write anything. On my way to work I think to myself "I really need to update btothez today." Should I write about all the homeless people I see on the drive and how sometimes I start crying at the sight of them? Should I write about how busy work is and how stressed out I am? Should I write about how lazy I am and how unhealthy I feel? All of that is so depressing, who the hell would want to read it?
What about our new place in Pasadena? okay...

Top 5 reasons I'm excited to move:
1. washer/dryer
2. kitchen w/ a window and big enough for two. (not to mention our refrigerator door will probably be able to open all the way)
3. fireplace
4. extra bedroom
5. 20 minutes closer to work
5.1. Brian will only be 5 minutes away from work. That means he can make dinner everynight. (my stomach just growled thinking of dinner. me so hungry)
5.2. No loud, drunk, college student neighbors.

Top 5 reasons I'm NOT excited to move:
1. our friends don't live in Pasadena
2. no open sesame
3. our friends don't live in Pasadena
4. no beach (not that I took advantage of it very often. but it's nice to see the ocean first thing in the morning)
5. our friends don't live in Pasadena

margaritaville

Dude. The past two weeks have been soooo busy. Work is nuts. I feel totally overwhelmed. But at least I'm making mucho moolah for this company, not that I see much of it. And I suppose busy is better than bored or tored. And if work wasn't crazy enough now I'm totally consumed w/ finding a place to live. Oh, and did I mention we are planning a wedding? I have a headache.

Let's talk about something fun...margaritas!! I love them. Brian always makes fun of me when I say that I want to relax w/ a margarita because, really, I don't drink margaritas. Though lately I've been enjoying them. The trick is get keep it on the rocks, NOT blended. (Blended gives you a brain freeze and those SUCK!! My head already hurts from all this stress.) I made tacos for Sonny and Brian the other night. We ate them with margaritas and it was yummy. So now I heart margaritas. If you don't believe me please see the picture below. I was drunk and happy and it's all due to the magical margarita (and the good company, of course)

annoyed in LA

This week is so annoying. I really don't know what else to say.

busy busy bo busy

Sundance starts tomorrow. This is the first time in 6 years Brian and I aren't going. I'm so bummed. Levi will be up there waiting in the cold for movies to start and we'll be stuck down here working. The worst part about it... we miss out on hanging out Kathleen, my little cousin. I just got home from seeing her at my Grandma's house. Just as we started bonding they had to leave for the airport. She is soooooooo cute!! Such a tough little girl. She makes Shae look so wimpy. Next year we are going to Sundance. And by that time Kathleen will be 2 1/2 and talking!!
At least we're going to Cabo and on a (tbd) honeymoon this year!!

i heart new york...

New York was great! The weather was amazing!! Work was exhausting. I always feel like such a loser while I'm there. Rather than go out every night enjoying the city, I end up going to an early dinner and falling asleep by 11:00. It's hilarious. I did go out with Wendi on Tuesday...we got hammered. It was not planned but so fun! We opted to steer clear of "Two for Tuesdays" to support our new year's diet. But I don't think eating nachos and having 10 drinks keeps the weight off. And I know the 1am walk to Duane Reade for Cheez-its didn't help. good times...

I was so tired on the flight home...I was crying through The Parent Trap. (Shake says it well, I feel sooo emootioonaallll.) Dude, that movie kinda sucks. Susan and Sharon were really mean to Vicky, their would-be stepmom. Vicky is a bitch but come on. They put honey on her feet and tie her up while she's sleeping so the bears can get to her. Hello, bears ATTACK people. I can't imagine the relationship between human and bear was that much different in 1961. And then Hecky plays it off "oh, those little bear cubs wouldn't hurt you." Um, their mom would.
And last time I checked punching your ex-husband in the face is not cool. Maggie does not know how to win her love back. And why is that only Verbena and the dog can tell that the twins switched. Shouldn't a parent realize these things. I'm so sure the girls would have the same mannerisms. And what are these names? Hecky and Verbena?

Am I really analyzing The Parent Trap?

I don't even like football...

Dude last night was intense!! Brian and I watched the 2nd half of the Rose Bowl game. We don't watch football and haven't seen a game all season but this game had hype so we had to watch it... and holy crap it was nuts!!

Sometimes when I watch basketball, especially during the playoffs, my heart starts pounding and I have trouble breathing because I'm so excited and stressed out. The same thing happened last night. When that one dude walked the ball over the end zone I almost threw up. I could really care less about USC football but I was so sad to see them lose. But they lost a good game so I guess that counts for something. And how much sweeter is the championship for Texas after stealing it from the best team in the country?

my condolences to The King and Katie!

pf cooper...

Man, it's hard to come back to work after a nice relaxing weekend! I keep dreaming about my couch and a book. I had a such a great New Years... mucho wine and laughs at Biggs then mucho champagne at Kristen and Steve's place. It was really fun and mellow and I was happy to ring in the new year w/ my bestest buddies. And nothing beats laying on the couch until 3pm on Sunday then going to PF Changs with my two best guys.

I have to start talking about it before I go crazy at work...
