Last night I was getting ready to fall asleep a little after midnight after a tiring weekend in Lebanon for a bowling tournament when I heard a loud crash outside. I jumped up, put on my glasses and looked out the window to see a small red pickup truck smashed into the front of my mom's car parked in front of our house. By the time I could get ( Read more... )

I just finished reading The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson. It is the first book of a series of three so far. I had seen the most recent book all over the place and decided that if there was such a buzz about it that it must be good.

This past weekend was Fourth of July weekend, obvs. Saturday we went to a picnic at my mom's old boss/current co-worker/my old boss also's house.

Clearly, noon is the more ( Read more... )

This past weekend was Kat and Jimmie's wedding weekend extravaganza in exotic Avalon, NJ. Friday night after Liz, Neenan, and myself finally got there after taking so many back roads and survived attempted vehicular homicide by a GPS, we got changed and headed across the street to the rehearsal dinner. Somehow, despite our best efforts, we were ( Read more... )

So I just got an email from my mom saying we have to be at the studio by 9am to get our tickets. That means that we have to catch the 7:12am train out of Trenton which is over an hour away from our house. I guess for the second time this month I am going to be getting up before 6am. Ugh.

So this weekend is the long awaited wedding. I am really looking forward to seeing my UD buddies and drinking and hanging out and all that fun stuff for a whole weekend. I am leaving tomorrow and won't be back til some time on Sunday. It will be exhausting but well worth it ( Read more... )
