It's been kind of a crazy week, what with all the baseball and the hockey and the party and work still being unnecessarily crazy and whatnot.  So here is a quick rundown.

1. YAY RED SOX. I have been watching too much baseball. But the end result is that the Red Sox won so that makes it all better. I still cant really get into baseball as a sport. It ( Read more... )

You know what I hate? What I really REALLY hate? When I stay late and work my ass off and when I come in the next morning and my boss is all, "Why didnt you get all your pages up? This really needed to get done yesterday ( Read more... )

I was not named a finalist. But I did get a lovely certificate of recognition in a beautiful frame, $100, and chocolate covered strawberries! So it's almost like I was a winner. :)

On the right side of page there is a story by NINA MANDELL. The best sports reporter EVER. And a smoking head shot.

I am trying not to let the fact that we share some DNA color my opinions.

If the rest of the NHL and the country is going to take us seriously ( Read more... )

Yesterday I went to see the opera for the very first time. I saw La Boheme at the Kennedy Center with my lovely roommate, Rachel ( Read more... )

Elizabeth and I went to a very nice dinner tonight downtown at Georgia Brown's and Tavis Smiley was there.  I am sure outside of DC not many people would be that excited. But it's DC. We don't have typical celebrities. We get excited about the weirdest people. And I say "we" cause everyone in the restaurant was excited about it - it wasn't just me ( Read more... )

Last night I went to my first hockey game of the season, sure it was only pre-season, but it was a big deal to me. I haven’t had any hockey in 4 months and I've been going a little bit crazy. For those of you that don’t know - I have season tickets for the Washington Capitals. I am absolutely obsessed with all things hockey and Capitals related.

Is it sad that I get so much enjoyment out of fictional characters? Sigh.

While I might be mad at Ugly Betty (Santos!) and Grey's (Izzie and George? The deer?) at least I have The Office to keep me happy. It is really nice to having something that makes you laugh out loud.
