There’s been some changes in my life and thankfully most of them are ones I love. But it would be nice if someone can motivate me so I can get back into running. That’s one change I would love! My running schedule should have started this week but lately I’ll come home and all I want to do is crash. I’m becoming an old lady. YIKES! Help me!

Last weekend (August 9th-10th), Liliana and Patricia drove from San Antonio to visit me. We got Korean food for dinner upon their arrival. Then I took them to Cloud 10 Creamery. It’s been very famous in Houston lately so I figure it was a great chance to check it out. I need to do review on it over at Yelp! but overall … expensive and delicious.

We spent the rest of the night just hanging out at the hotel and ordering a bottle of Moscato. Being silly and myself with them was just what I needed. Don’t freak out about the first picture; those are candy cigarettes in our mouths!

The next day we got free breakfast/brunch from the hotel and then I took them to various art museums and even stopped by at the famous Biscuit Paint Wall. I had a lot of fun with them and I hope they feel the same. In the bottom left hand picture you can see some photos. That one with the fire … one of my favorite pieces there. The other one is blocked by Liliana. Gah … I. Love. Art.

Friday night, August 15th, we bid farewell to BossMan. The whole team surprised him at the restaurant for dinner when he thought it was just going to be two teammates with him. He was very, very surprised so all went well. We got him a Diesel Watch, Starbucks Gift Card, Whiskey Scotch, and a picture frame of the whole team and a farewell message of how much we love him.

I wonder if Mum could tell I was a little tipsy upon arriving home …

When I was on my way to changing up the blog, I found this search. Who is looking this up? I really want to know. Sadly he doesn’t work there anymore. Shucks. At least I still have the picture though.

Last Friday, I went with Mallory, her parents, Janna and Mace, and Samantha to the Houston World Series Dog Show. I’ve always wanted to go but never got a chance so when Janna, mentioned it, we made it happen, Mace, wasn’t all that excited about it when we first walked in but that changed by the time we were leaving. Definitely a lot of fun. We saw dogs doing relay races called Fly Ball, and dogs that look exactly alike. Saw dogs that needed their own fans and dogs going through obstacle courses. And without fail, we got a lot of free samples. Rizzo won’t need food for a couple months!

Monday night, my friend’s show, Space City Chronicles, had Electric Sleep as guest stars. The three on top makes up the band and the one on the bottom picture on the right helps do their visuals such as lights and backdrops. They have a pretty neat set up. I asked one of the guys’ girlfriend what kind of music they make before they started and she replied, “Noise”. Either that’s a new genre or …

It’s been a bit hectic at work since I had so many days off. I always said taking off may be relaxing, but coming back gives you the stress you were trying to get away from.

I hope you all have a great Friday!

Finally got to go to the studio at Houston Media Source to see two of my old high school friends in action. Ed and his friend started a public access television show and Ryan goes and helps out. And I was lucky enough to help out as well. It was the kind of fun stress I needed. Lots of laughs … on my end as usual.

I took Tuesday off … and bought a Lunchable. Jokes. But seriously haven’t had one in forever. Memories. Mum never really bought them since they’re bad for you but … something about that pizza dough. I heard they were making adult Lunchables. Hopefully it comes with an alcoholic drink instead of a juice box.

One of my work mum’s left the company today. Sad day. She gave us all a portfolio folder along with a box of Godiva chocolates and sweet note. I know I’ll see her again.

I cannot wait for this weekend to be over. Birthday celebrations are fun but I’m getting old. I just want to relax. Wow .. how lame am I …
