What Are You Doing NYE?

2011-12-30T10:05:00.000-08:00

What are YOU doing NYE? I am fortunate enough to spend the evening with my wonderful friends in San Francisco. Would be better with ALL of my besties and my family, but you know, I can't have my cake and eat it too. At least, not yet. ;) Please enjoy the musical stylings of Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon Levitt (yeah, the 3rd Rock kid!). Pretty rad, and I must say...makes me want to get some karaoke (please think Ross from Friends when you read that word) on tomorrow night!!!

HAPPY NEW YEARS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!

What A Scrooge, Jimmy Kimmel!

I absolutely love how we can exploit our children for our own personal pleasure. I can't lie to you, these brought tears to my eyes...while I was rolling all over the floor laughing hysterically.

I Present To You...Alfalfa!

A San Francisco Christmas

Union Square Menorah...

2011-12-20T22:34:00.000-08:00

This is how we do Hanukkah in San Francisco. Menorah ice blocks and kids who like licking ice. I get so close to seeing a re-creation of the kid who licks the pole in A Christmas Story, but it never happens...It never happens. :(

Happy Hanukkah, San Francisco!!

Another Sad Goodbye...

2011-12-18T21:45:00.000-08:00

Two years ago she left us suddenly, and I still can't forget her sweet, sweet smile. Today he followed her home. Joe Donnelly, thank you for being a part of my life. You brought a smile to my face whenever I saw you. I will never forget you.

RIP My Sweet Isy...

2011-12-13T23:04:00.000-08:00

Today I officially said goodbye to my sweet little Isis. I'm sad.

Our First Christmas Tree!

W.W.L.O.A.D.?

2011-12-05T20:10:00.001-08:00

Seriously, DamnYouAutoCorrect cracks me up every time. In honor of the holidays, and one of my favorite past times, I ask of you this: What Would Little Orphan Annie Do if she saw this post?

Have I Ever Told You...

2011-12-05T19:59:00.001-08:00

That I have the cutest niece and nephew on the face of the planet? (blood related, that is.) I was fortunate to spend Thanksgiving with these two, and I am so grateful that their parents allowed me hug and kiss and tickle the cuteness out of them. Tyler is so in love with his little sister, it makes my heart skip a beat. I look forward to the day they love my children with the same enthusiasm. (Although that will be a LONG LONG LONG time from now!)

Because I Am Thankful...Belated!

2011-12-05T19:43:00.001-08:00

30. Tea and Honey :)
28. Love. LOVE!
27. Fun and games with friends on a Funday Sunday, IN MY PANTS!

Day 26 | Because I Am Thankful...

2011-11-26T16:50:00.001-08:00

Style network airing reruns of Sex and the City, over and over again. I just can't get enough of seeing Manolo, Chanel and Dior popping up in every seen. A girl can only dream...

Day 25 | Because I Am Thankful...

2011-11-25T23:32:00.001-08:00

Spending time with my niece and nephew. Since working in the City has taken away from Tyler and Ellie time, I am so thankful to be able to spend time with them during the holidays. They are my everything. Poopy diapers, temper tantrums...I'll take them anytime :)

Day 24 | Because I Am Thankful...

2011-11-24T10:16:00.001-08:00

No matter where we are, what we are doing, or who we are with, I am reminded everyday that family is the best thing in my life. Whether they are blood or not, my family is always there. They are the first ones I run to, the first ones I cry to, and the first ones I celebrate with. I am proud of my family, and I couldn't imagine my life without any of them. I thank you all for loving me, supporting me, and allowing me to be the dork that I am. You are the best family a girl could ask for. I love you!

Day 23 | Because I Am Thankful...

2011-11-24T10:01:00.001-08:00

The little furry creatures in my life. They are so FLUFFY!!!! I just might die.

Day 22 | Because I Am Thankful...

2011-11-22T19:41:00.001-08:00

Neighbours. A cup of sugar, a meat thermometer, or a bottle of wine. (yes, a bottle!) They are awesome. So are their furry little friends :)

Day 21 | Because I Am Thankful...

2011-11-21T20:55:00.001-08:00

I suck. I've missed a few days. Here I go!

21. Strangers. You never when one will make you smile and make your day better.
20. Best friends. Have I mentioned them before?
19. Concerts. Just another way to bond with my sisters.
18. Yum Yum Hunan :)
17. Home cooked meals. Even if they're semi-home made.
16. Kickball. Awesome friends, awesome times.
15. Just because it's Tuesday.

The Lady Is A LAWYER!!!!!!!!!

2011-11-18T18:51:00.001-08:00

She passed the bar!!!! One of my closest friends of over 10 years, found out this evening at 6:00 PM that she passed the California State Bar Examination!!!!! She has become a sister to me, and I couldn't be more proud. Before law school, we talked and hung out like it was the end of the world. Okay, not THAT much. But a lot. We did. The day she started law school, I knew I wouldn't talk to her for another three years. Now is the time; no fretting, no spazzing. No bailing out on city nights BECAUSE SHE HAS TO STUDY! For now, it's time to party, and party we will! We get to celebrate tomorrow night, along with my sister Bea, we will be rock'n out to THE SOUNDS!!! I really can't wait, and I know that we are going to have an awesome time. Yeah!!!

Congrats my love, I I am so proud!!!!!!!!!

Day 15 | Because I am Thankful...

2011-11-15T22:37:00.001-08:00

My two oldest best friends are just a text message, phone call, email away...

My two newest best friends are only 4 blocks away...

(You aren't limited to the amount of besties, but it is quality, not quantity...)

All of them make me smile when I need it most, tell the best jokes when I need it most, and are there for me when I need a shoulder to cry on.

They are my friends, and they love me, just because I am me.

I love you :)

Because I Am Thankful...

A family member of mine has been posting on facebook what she is thankful for every day since November 1. Taking note from her, I will from this day forward do the same, until the end of the month. So, since it has been 14 days, here are 14 things that I am thankful for:

14. Major League Baseball. I bleed orange and black.
13. Ikea!!!!!! Bringing me closer to my roots, hehehe.
12. Cherry Carmex.
11. Reading Rainbow. Because of you and my sister, I never leave home without a good book.
10. The Muni bus drivers. Keeping me safe from sleeping passengers and moth balls.
9. Gabrielle Reece. She's my idol.
8. The Television industry. Keeping my nightly calendar full :)
7. Pepperidge Farms...Just keep swimming, just keep swimming, just keep swimming, little fishies into my mouth!
6. Rain. Too many dry, sunny days make Adrienne a dull girl.
5. The sun, the moon, the stars...From them, art, music and life is born.
4. My nieces and nephews...I can't image a life without your smiles and your giggles!
3. My boyfriend. You are my heart and soul.
2. My best friends. Without you, I would not know warmth.
1. My family. Without them, I am alone.
