Palin Shoes



Finally, someone who knows what's really important in the news:

The shoes of Republican presidential candidate Senator John McCain (L) and his vice presidential running mate Alaska Governor Sarah Palin are shown as they stand at a campaign event in Dayton, Ohio August 28, 2008.

Yum



I've been blogging disabled lately.

First the beach took me away (which was awesome by the way)

Many photos to come.

Then, a nasty stomach virus that also blew my socks off

in a bad way.

But at the very least, I lost the weight I gained at the beach.

(my sis has it now...poor thing.)

Had the most delicious fudgey fondue at a dessert cafe that also had views of the bay.

My girlies & I had cappuccinos (for them) & tea for me

& fruit & marshmellows dipped in chocolate.

No words were needed...we just dipped & savored.

I mean it...I could have lived at this place forever.

Shake It, Baby



I'll admit it.

This sounded yucky when I 1st heard about it.

but...being the avocado freak that I am...

I relented & tried it.

OMG (I hate when people use these 3 letters in a row...but it seems to fit here.)

It was so very tasty:

Vietnamese Avocado Shake

* 1 medium avocado
* 1/4 cup condensed milk
* 1-2 tablespoon sugar (to taste)
* 1 cup ice

Throw everything in a blender and process until consistency is smooth.


are you brave enough to try it?

Also, is there any man out there that will actually eat an avocado?

Guacamole maybe?

My sister's college room mate has a family house at the beach.

She works at the same company as I do.

She accosts me whenever me see each other in the cafeteria.

Seriously, she's pushed me in the back of the knees before.

trying to take me down in a broken heap.

Wouldn't that be funny?

So, I usually pay her back my pinching her ass.

It's all worth it because I'm going to be staying at her house for a bit this week.

Yeah, sand & sun for me & sis.

Be back soon.

Red Light-Green Light



They stopped at a red light to chat.

they were in 2 separate cars.

& I was behind one of them.

Um...the light is turning GREEN.

I count...one-one hundred...two...

HEY! What the hell?!

BEEP-BEEP-BEEP

The only movement in front of me

is one of the women getting out of her car & walking towards me.

(to beat me up?!)

Are you kidding me?

Lady, don't even...

OK...it looked like she could actually take my ass.

So, I drove around her.

Twit.

Once in a while he pops up in my head.

We were high school freshman.

Too young to drive.

So our mom's took turns picking us up from practice after school & sometimes on Saturdays too.

We weren't really friends.

He was even shyer than me.

Was that the reason for the tiny crush I were sort of getting on him?

He was small (like me).

He wore thick glasses & was sort of bookish in a serious way.

(unlike me who wore no specks & my bookishness tended toward the goofy).

He name was Robert...never Rob or Bobby.

We'd sit in the back of the car & make whichever parent was driving feel like a taxi driver or a chauffeur.

I'd try to get him to talk to me & when that inevitably failed I'd chat up the driver.

He surprisingly showed up at the freshman dance.

I was thrilled & in my little kid-like excitement I asked him to dance.

No...he said, & looked at the floor.

I was crushed...but I had my pack of girlie friends to fall back on.

I could see his friends kidding him from across the room.

Shoving him in my direction.

Nope...he danced with no one that night.

He always looked lost to me.

But somehow I knew that he was sweet & funny & I wanted to know him.

I still remember that day is biology class.

You know when class is interrupted for any reason it's usually not good.

I remember the look my teacher came back into the room with.

His face was white as a sheet.

He just got the news that Robert had died.

The administration came up with some ridiculous story

about Robert accidentally getting tangled in some rope

while trying to perform a trick or something.

Um...what?!

That made no sense.

The school offered free counseling.

Which no one took advantage of

Why would they?

No real issues would be addressed

because the fact that Robert actually hung himself

from the big tree in his back yard

never fit neatly with the official scenario the school handed down to us.

There's still a place in my heart that hurts for him

& that spot in my soul that wanted to know him will probably always ache.
