Sorry for being so M.I.A.Work was nuts last week and when I did have time to write, I didn't really feel like I had anything of interest to report.Which has never stopped me before, I know.So with no cool, or touching, or hysterical stories to report, I'm relying on the "random update" standby.ONE.My friend Lesli and I saw the movie Whip It last night and while it's not likely to win any major awards, it's a fun chick flick and any fan of Ellen Page will overlook weak movie-moments just to watch her own Juliet Lewis's character, Maggie Mayhem, on the roller derby track. Able to apply my basic knowledge of roller derby (thanks to Sarat and Suzy who've taken me to a few Big Easy Rollergirl bouts in New Orleans), I cheered as Bliss, Ellen's high school character, shoved and hip checked girls to earn "lead jammer" points. Full story...
I'm old. You want to know how I know?Because I no longer roll my eyes when people say "time sure does fly, the older you get.
I can't believe I'm going to post these photos from last night's White Trash Party.In fact, I'm betting most of my friends will likely kill me and never hang out with me again once they realize I'm really sharing these atrocities with the world.
So, my neighbors are throwing a white trash birthday party for a friend of theirs.I've never met this friend, but me, Apes, and our posse are SO attending her party.
It's been pouring rain here for two solid days (thank you Tropical Storm Ida).Last night, Apes called on her way home from work, excited about a sale happening at Tuesday Morning.
My neighbor Pat called last weekend and invited us to Disco Coffee. When pressed for a definition, she replied:"Well, it's amazing coffee, friends and DISCO MUSIC, of course!"Of course.
Letseee...First things first. Apes and I learned, whilst rocking out at the Montgomery Gentry concert last weekend, that Outback Steakhouse is offering a free Blooming Onion and beverage to all veterans and active duty on Wednesday, November 11th (Veteran's Day).

My friend Christine is amazing.She has a spirit that puts my soul at ease, a cadence to her life that draws people to her.
Oy. Has it been more than a week?!Somewhere in between work, deciding to paint our bedroom in two days (hi cathedral ceilings), planning a kick-ass cabin trip for 20 crazy women over the Halloween weekend, preparing to receive new bedroom furniture, drinking copious amounts of Diet Coke and packing to head to Atlanta (again), the week totally got away from me.
At first glance, these may just LOOK like Diet Coke screw tops, but they aren't.
