ABCs

So I just spoke to my brother's kids and we had an awesome time on the phone. While 'speaking' to my niece Maren, age 2, I started singing the ABCs for her. The next thing I know: Maren (2), Caleb (4), and Parker (5) are all taking turns laughing while I sing to them. It was hilarious to hear them laugh so hard. However, do you think it's a reflection on my ability to carry a tune?

One Fine Day


I went to the grand opening of a shoe store tonight and saw Michelle Pfeiffer there. It was basically life changing. She came out of a back room, walked by me and never looked back. I think I'm one step closer to the American Dream of fame and fortune. My friend works in the shoe store and said that Michelle is a 'regular'. I'm thinking that I'll shop there more often. Now, it's time to watch her and George Clooney in One Fine Day; I can reminisce of when I almost talked to her in a shoe store...

P.S. Hannah, next time you see her can you tell her how fabulous she was in Stardust? I love that movie even more.

A Foggy Day in the City


This weekend was the Blue Angels airshow in San Francisco so Scott and I went out on the Golden Gate Bridge to feel the vibrations as they flew over. We got there about 30 minutes early, saw them fly by twice, waited another 30 minutes, and then left. Apparently it was too foggy for the big show. I'm surprised that the show was cancelled because of fog; it's always foggy in SF. Whatever. We met up with Scott's old traveling buddy Mike and went to dinner and ice cream. It was really fun. I love living near the City where I can go in for an afternoon, have a good time, and then drive back to my quiet neighborhood.

Can I live in the closet?

So the lovely Jess and I went to Stanford yesterday to visit the even lovelier Lauren, Jenn, Victoria, and Rebekah. They invited us to eat dinner at their house but we had to go last night though since their chef doesn't work Tuesdays. (Yes, you read that right, they're in college and have a chef.) So they live in a house with about 40 other girls and it looks so cool. Dinner was tasty and we ate in a dining hall that made me feel like I should sing for my food or something. I wished I had a camp counselor and cheer to go along with the lasagna. Afterward we got the grand tour. There are 3 levels, a computer room, piano, chef, fully stocked fridge, M&Ms (my personal favorite), and basically anything else you can imagine. Oh yeah, they don't even have to pay for laundry! Their rooms are enormous too! The top picture was taken in one of the many closets. Seriously? Where did I go wrong in choosing to go to another university? I seriously missed out on the sorority lifestyle. Maybe I should go back for a masters...
