I've been busy with work,

holiday shopping [what is Santi Claus bringing Wade???],

Fret not chicos, I'll be bringing you a super-show soon enough to update you on everything I've been up to.

IKEA Helps Omar Organize

Everybody's heard of Spring Cleaning. Well chicos, I had needed some pre-holiday cleaning to occur or the papers, old statements, and receipts were going to take over.

My boyfriend Wade supervised, "Wade Eye for the "O" Guy" and now my living room/home office is a clean, organized and peaceful space.

First, we had to go to IKEA and my friend Didi or "Didrik" as his line of IKEA products is called, had to accompany us.

Wild Limo Ride

Here's how it all started: My friend Rob's birthday is on Tuesday and he had several parties to attend tonight. Most of you are now thinking what do these two things have in common? Well, Rob decided to rent a limo to drive a group of us around so we could attend all the parties and so that no one had to drive. We love Rob.

We went to a couple of art showings, Kyle's house party and even made it to the Pah-Caw!!

Coworker Lunch & New Additions!

I had lunch today with a former coworker and friend Jinaki.

It was great to see her and catch up. Our waitress was so pregnant that when our food was delayed we figured it was because she was giving birth.

Courtney, Tim, Omar and Jinaki

And speaking of giving birth, my friend Chanta gave birth today to two boys Christian and Taylor.
Both mother and babies are doing well.

Feliciades Chanta!

Look for the Transit of Mercury Today

Today Mercury's orbit will appear like a spot on the sun today.

Be "Sun Safe" and don't look directly at the sun as much as you'd like to. This won't happen again for many years.

Check out NASA's site on Mercury's Transit here including a live webcast.
