Saturday was a very Zeta day ( Read more... )

You know how Christmas is supposed to mean spending time with friends and family more than the presents under the tree? I have felt that so much lately. I'm so glad I got to see Jess and spend some time with her. And even though only Ashley could come to the family dinner, it was great catching up. I feel like since leaving school, these ( Read more... )

Our office Christmas party is Sunday. My grandmother has already warned me not to get drunk and make a fool of myself. Sometimes I wonder just who she thinks I am! And then there was the issue of her thinking I was naked under my dress because it's sheer black with a nude underlay! Recently she told my cousin who's 12 not to get a 'nude dress ( Read more... )

I went to hear my mom's choir sing at my grandfather's nursing home yesterday. They were wonderful, and I really love seeing the joy it brings her. Her friends there - they are her second family . . . like I have my Zeta sisters. But here's the big news: they just found out they are going to be singing at Carnegie Hall! Not a one of them could ( Read more... )

Last night we celebrated Michelle's birthday and Sally's moving to California. It was a great night with lots of old friends. We ate Rojo for dinner. The birthday girl was all decked out in her birthday crown and glowstick jewelry (the excuse for them being . . . so we wouldn't lose her later in the bar). There were balloons and cupcakes too - ( Read more... )

. . . every time I do, I come back sans camera. This time it (my brother's that I was borrowing) fell in the toilet. Don't ask how that one happened. I salvaged the memory card as quickly as possible and saved all of his 500 pictures though. So, yay for that! My phone was water-logged too. So I bought a pink razor one because it makes me ( Read more... )

Ok, I really miss my digital camera. I know it's just a thing and things aren't important. But I take pictures everywhere and took soooo many at the wedding. I just can't get over how people can be so dishonest. I'm pretty sure now someone took it when I had my back turned. You'd think at a wedding reception of family and friends that most of ( Read more... )

Ashley is married! As tired as I am right now and as long as the day seemed at the time, it all seems a blur. I reported for bridemaid duty to have my hair done at 7:45 this morning. Then it was a whole lot of sitting around, taking pictures, and sitting around uncomfortably in our dresses. But I see why we had to get there so early because ( Read more... )

I made the front page of the paper! I'm practically famous.

I like how I only get hit on by the creepy guys. Granted Vulcan's birthday bash was probably not a place where I was likely to meet the guy of my dreams, but did it have to be the slow, balding guy with a balloon that followed us around and then sat on a bench and watched the kiddies? He used the ol' You Look Like Someone I Went to High School ( Read more... )
