Fair Day!

ferris

Woo-hoo, we're going to the State Fair this weekend!
What does that entail? A little of this:

1. People watching... out-of-town visitors,carnies,
teenagers making out (ewww!).

2. Chile Relleno Dogs. (Exactly what they sound like:
a green chile stuffed with cheese and a hotdog(!!!), battered
and fried, smothered in green chile.)

3. Aguas Frescas. I love to mix flavors.

4. Roasted Corn with lots of butter, s+p, lemon and cayenne
pepper.

5. Warm, sweet pecans!

6.  Livestock and exhibits... sooo many cool, cute, weird items
to enjoy!

(and yes, I probably can eat everything mentioned!)

Funny People


Last night was date night and we decided
to go old school...to the movies to see
Funny People. Although it was indeed funny,
there are some serious undertones that deal
with love, death, infidelity, and friendship.

Anyone who enjoys Judd Apatow + his crew
will definitely enjoy this film as well.

I'm obsessed!

Here's a favorite scene perfectly
reenacted by the Crusty Jugglers
(the name of our night-time bike riding gang).

ENJOY!

Sundays, Star Sightings and Scooters...

Sunday was Father's Day and we
celebrated by having lunch in Santa Fe
@ a favorite, Cafe Pasqual's. Anyone who's
ever been there knows there is ALWAYS a
wait, well worth it, and this Sunday was no
different. But, while we were waiting, I spotted
Hilary Swank! She was blonde and petite and
walking down the street, minding her own
business. It was actually really exciting!
She's a looker!


Another exciting thing coming up is the
Lambretta Scooter Rally, being hosted by my
Sweets and his friends. They have been working
so hard for months, but I think it's going to be
great fun and worth all the hard work. The guys will
also be in the paper on June 25th, I'll post a link or
something...In the meantime, here's a pic of the pinata,
not quite finished, that will be smashed to smithereens:

hello and hi.

how's that for boring!?

not a lot going on 'round these parts...

work has been extremely busy the past
2 weeks. people? they're nuts!

i saw calexico this weekend.
they were great~ there was a pinata.
i have some pics, i'll post them later.

oh, i've been watching a lot of twin peaks
lately. i was never really into it when it was
popular in the 90's... i was probably too busy
with the New Kids or something else equally
lame. anyhoo, i'm really digging it, there are
so many weird, freaky, wild, bat-shit crazy
characters~ i love it. i'm up to season 2 as of
tonight. good stuff.

that's all i've got for now.

it's Friday...oh yeah!

I get to go on a date tonight... lucky me!
Is it really a date if I choose the date, place
and time? I say IT IS! Anytime I get to spend
quality ADULT time with my lover is fun to me.
We, like (probably) everyone, have gone through
rough patches, and most likely will again in
our future, but we are both working hard at
our relationship and will continue to do so.
We've been together for like 8 years or something!

DAAAAANG!

Sunday!

We viewed the Meso-Americhanics Exhibit after a
late breakfast at La Fonda del Bosque restaurant yesterday.
For all you locals, the National Hispanic Cultural Center offers
free admission on Sundays... a great way to spend the afternoon!

Here's a tiny peek at the greatness of this show:
I went home with all sorts of ideas and inspiriration!

monday already?!

today is rainy and grey... i SO wanted to stay in
bed this morning...

oh well.

i did have a SUPERB weekend, though.

on friday night, we stayed home, had dion's pizza
and introduced angus to freaks and geeks and he
really enjoyed it!

saturday was a super busy day! we got to sleep
in, which was awesome, then headed over to
amerasia for some delicious dim sum. this is my
favorite thing to eat there:



after that, we headed up to the heights for angus's first
soccer game of the season... they lost, but played well.

and after that, we went to see watchmen and it
THOROUGHLY.KICKED.ASS. many asses, actually.
i (of course) was crushing on almost all of the characters,
especially silk spectre II

...

and here's a photo of one of the coolest 10 yr.olds, halloween 2008:
Photobucket
he CLEARLY loves the comics like his pops... cu-ute!

on sunday, we cleaned the house like nobody's business.

it took me 4 hours to clean the the bathroom from top
to bottom. then another 3 hours to do the living room,
top to bottom. i felt bad for craig, he did the entire
kitchen by himself. now, we're not the dirtiest people
in the world, but apparently not the cleanest either.
what? i HATE cleaning almost as much as i hate folding
the white loads of laundry! too many damn socks!! oh, i
was ranting for a sec, forgive me.

after cleaning pretty much all day long, we had dinner here:


it was sooo good.

all of it!

I'm Crushing your Head!



Hi.

Hope everyone is well.

Had a lovely weekend, got to hang with some
funny chicks on Saturday evening, saw 2 ex's (shit!),
went home and watched Manu Chao on tv and
just enjoyed myself.

Sunday, I finally took down the Christmas tree...
it wasn't as horrific as I THOUGHT it was going to be,
did some housework, played at the park with 3 cute boys
and had a yummy roasted chicken dinner.

In between it all, there were also episodes of Kids in the Hall
and one of my new favorites, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
I have to say, it was a great weekend.


This weekend is also going to be lots of fun~
one of my best girls will be in town and we're
going to have a blast... we ALWAYS do!

FRIDAY= good times.



hi kids, hope you're all well!

as always, i love the weekends...
so much to do and it's almost
already the end of the month which
means Halloween and soon after that,
Dia De Los Muertos... which translates
into lots of fun and activities. we plan
on going to a parade in the valley and
i'm going to take lots of pics with my
loverly holga camera! it's been too long...

this weekend i am going to make sugar skulls
and i'm pretty damn excited! mine won't be
edible though because i got all sorts of beads
and rhinestones and shit to decorate them.
AND they're way to sweet to eat anyway. i'll
post pics later next week.

another AWESOME thing we're doing is
attending a rally for barack obama and i am
thrilled. odds are it'll be super packed and
barack will be the size of an ant... i don't
care, i wouldn't miss it for anything!

well, i should get back to work and
to playing scramble (a word game/time
killer) on facebook.
