This is January???

So I am sitting outside in a T-shirt in January. While nice weather, kinda spooky. Can you say global warming? This is going to be one full week. Spoon, CSBG, and a lot of other stuff too. Last night was an impromptu night out at the Yellow Rose with Shana and Nicole. Much fun. Much Crown. Much Tuaca.

Amy is not a big fan of the Crown...

I finally got my friend Amy to check out Barfly's. The funny thing is for the first time they ran out of Lonestar.. They annouced it right when we walked in and the crowd did a collective "awwwwww".

Laurie and I had a couple drinks Thursday. Now as a launching spot, I love Iron Cactus North. And I love even more is the Austrailian bartendress who pours a mean Crown on the Rocks..

My dog has a new friend. Not sure what she thinks of it...

Yes! I tasted actual food!!!

Well, queso with beef. I love a knock on the door that when I open it I am greeted by queso. I am still not 100% but the fever broke this morning and after 3 gallons of water to replace all the sweating I have done the last couple days. At least I can resume being part of the human race again. My dog finally got to play outside. Well, she ran in a fenced area 50 feet from my door, I sat on the ground wearing 3 layers on a warm day like today... One last night of rest should bring me up to speed.

Well, I have been sick for 3 days now. This pic shows me at the best I have felt since Wednesday. I miss FOOD!!! I havne't been able to eat that much.. I am surviving on super juice (my own blend of sprite, orange-pineapple, and cran-rasp jucies) and spaghettios. I want mashed potatoes.. I want queso! I want to taste food! No one like to be seen when they are sick.. The one in full color I look like death warmed over.. I had to add the warm tones of sepia to show I have life in me..

My friend Laurie invited me out to Roller Derby. All I can say is hot chicks that can kick ass rawk!!

Do you do this???

Ok, so all of us in the "blogosphere" keep up with eachother through our blogs. But, for those of us that know the other party in the real world, while you read their blog does your mind speak the words in their voice? Kinda ceepy but kinda cool in the same way... Think about that next time you read someone's blog or MySpace account.

Stress. Hwah. What is it good for? Abosolutely nothing...

Say it again... A little play on the lyrics to WAR.. Someone I know told me that I add stress to their life. Taken back at first, I was suprised, but then I had to agree.. I do add stress. I do. I guess it as to do with relationships (dating, friends, and family) in my younger days. I expect more back now. Sometimes my expectations are not realistic, sometimes I show discontent, and it has a bad result. Others I am just let down. But my wall has kept me from really differentiating the differences. (that sounds like a GW quote..)

The one thing I can say is once I reach a certain point, it has been hard to recover from it. Either from the damage caused, my inability to chose my battles, or just plain pride. Something hard for me to fix.. But getting better at it.

Still though.. I am a work in progress... Tune in next week to see how things turn out!

Mua ha ha ha...

It's Friday the 13th. I didn't realize it till a little bit ago. This is usually a good day for me. We will see I guess... Keep an eye on the photos. I sense an adventure...

Seven days...

One of my favorite songs is Seven Days by Cracker. When I awoke this morning, it was stuck in my head. I took it as a sign to discuss the last week.

Tumultous. It definately describes the last seven. It seemed as if every day the ball of string kept getting tangled. I went to a birthday celebration last Friday. Yeah, that was one to have sat out on. My advice to people out there... If you have a situation with a friend that needs to be resolved don't do it on their birthday.

I have been working on a project for the last month. And that is where I find peace. Nothing like getting deep into something that you really enjoy doing. The only issue is that when I do, I focus so much on it that I forget about anything else going on in my world. So that took a bit of catching up that has left me a bit stressed. But it is all coming together.

But there is a one thing that I can say has been a blessing is my friend Laurie. She sometimes gets stuck in the middle of things she doesn't want to be a part of, but she stays true to both parties. She will listen and sometimes that is all that is needed. She will call you out on what you do and not sell out the others in the process. Going to miss you when you leave.

So I have been...

Really busy. Really really busy. But there is nothing like seeing the results of hard work come to fruition. I am excited to see what people think of what will be happening.

So of my friends.. Be patient with me. This time of year my ADD and tunnel vision goes into overtime. I know when we are out I will zone off and my mind will be 'at work' instead of enjoying the fun time we are having. It is just this time of year. But you will not be forgotten when I have something fun for you. Trust me.

On that note... I need a friggin Lonestar...

This is one of the many reasons I love Austin...

Post game fun.. Thank god for friends buying me drinks, as I get to meet new ones! Thanks for the ride home ladies! (Esp you Emily!)

UT WINS!!!

I was released from work early due to the fact that The Rose Bowl was going to be the only thing going on. I came home and went to the neighbors.. It was a nail biter but DAMN!!! I lost my voice and then met up with friends who bought my drinks and celebrated with me!

Way to go Horns!!! Now I want my Badgers to make a better run for it next year!!!

Laurie getting her swerve on!

Helldorado!!!

Laurie showing her O face...

Damn dirty ape!!!

Are we slow dancing?

Cheers Shot Bar Gang.. I love it when friends take my broke ass out!
