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 …

Thursday
Got to see Apurva for Happy Hour at Union Kitchen.
I wasn’t too big of a fan of their food.
I was so stressed out, I dumped some things on her.
Thank goodness for friends.

Friday
Dinner and a concert.
Saw Wade Bowen at Mo’s Place.
In company of Mallory, John, and Samantha.
Great night. Great memories!
I got hit on a few times and realized if I cannot find a man my age in the future, I always have those 60 year old men that want me …

Saturday
Played Phase10 with Mum, Sissy, and BIL.
Rizzo and Bruno slept on my legs.
My legs were sweaty since Burno is a fatty.
Timothy and Joanna came over for a little bit.
Got to catch up with Joanna about her wedding stuff! Excited!

It’s been a pretty relaxing weekend which is just what the doctor orders for me all the time.

And I’m tres tres excited for work to be over tomorrow. I get to finally go to the studio to help with my old high school friend’s production! It’s been on for 3-4 weeks now but I’ve been so busy. Cannot wait!!

Hope you all had a great weekend as well!

I canceled my renew for this domain and have until July 16th to come up with a new one. Once that’s done, I will be letting y’all know by commenting your blogs so keep an eye out!

I had a lovely day. Took a half day, and went with Sissy and BIL to look at houses. I was dying though. It was freaking hot. Yucky Houston summers. Hoping they get a place soon so when I make my downtown drives for the studio I have a place to stay if needed.

Afterward Sammy showed me a new jingle he wrote … hoping he’ll make it longer so I can write words to it – maybe. It’s too all over the place for me to even come up with anything. Then I took a grand nap. And headed over to Painting With A Twist to meet up with Zuco and Mallory.

My finished work. I’m unhappy with the blue funnel. The dude kept telling us we needed it. I think it would of looked better without. Sigh. Never listening to anyone again!

All of our finished work. And Zuco brought me cupcakes from Crave! Good thing I didn’t get her any or else … too many cupcakes! And it’s always a great day when postcards come in the mail! I collect them and my closest friends know. I save them and hope that one day when I have my own place, I can display them along with a gigantic map on a gigantic wall. Thank you, Trisha!

Funny story … to certain people. Zuco was off in college at Texas State this year so I gave her brother, Wacko, her present for him to give her. This was back in Feburary. Today, I was talking to Wacko at work and …

Wacko: “Oh, aren’t you seeing Zuco today?”
Me: “Yeah, why?”
Wacko: “Here, you can give this to her.” *opens drawer and pulls out Zuco’s gift*

Seriously? …. never trust a guy to do anything!

Glad I took the first half of tomorrow off. That means I can sleep late!!

Hope your hump day was just as wonderful as mine!

Hmmm … this seems familiar.

Dearest Sunday, thank you for being so relaxing. Letting me spend time with my family but also letting me have time alone at my happy place to work on graphic design stuff for a startup company.

Dearest Dad, Happy Father’s Day. I know we rarely get along since we’re both so stubborn but I know you love me and I hope you know that I love you, too. Thank you for always being there for me when I needed it. Hopefully one day I can make you truly proud of me.

Dearest Ed, I realized whenever I hang out with you (and Ryan and Daniel when they’re there) we act like we’re still in high school – immature. Some things never change, and I’m okay with that. Thank you for driving and taking me to try new places. Lowbrow for duck quesadillas, fries, and Emerald Bay Cabernet. Then to Rice University’s Graduate Student-run Pub, Valhalla, where I met a handsome bartender. And writing a very ridiculous short song (ballad?). I hope you find your cotton candy haired girl.

Dear Weekend, it’s been long but I’m thankful for you after all those long meetings and “drama” from a friend’s girlfriend. So happy I got to see my cousins and spend time with them. Also always a pleasure seeing Joanne. Only wished she would stop badgering me to date. But I know she means well.

I hope you all had a great weekend as well!

Until next time,

Wow! … Three posts in one week. What is going on?

I’ve realized the majority of the people I follow has dropped off the blogosphere to live their lives. So happy for them but I miss reading about their lives! Glad I still have their Instagrams though. Else I don’t know how I would survive. Hmm … that sounds creepy.

Thankful I am able to come to my happy place. I rarely get to come here now. It’s not because I can’t but because I rather stay home and be with Rizzo. Hooray for getting out of work a little earlier than usual!

The manager and I use to talk about how it’s a struggle to lose weight and the first thing she exclaimed was, “You look great!” And for the first time, without hesitation, I thanked her for her compliment because I knew it was a genuine one.

Short post for today because Joanne saw the picture above on Instagram and is now coming to see me! *happydance* And I want to get to some blog readings before she gets here.

Until next time,
