VIA and Thanks!

Today I am thankful for the new Starbucks Via. The office coffee was extra crappy today, I'm too busy to leave the building (but not too busy to blog, go figure), plus payday is Friday and my funds are limited.  What is a coffee snob to do? Open up a Starbucks Via and add hot water! I was a bit skeptical at first...instant that tastes like brewed? Impossible! On days like this, Starbucks Via is ten times better than the alternative! I'm thankful for this hot cup of delicious coffee, not quite like brewed but close enough! I reccomend the Italian Roast! Yummy! Thanks Starbucks (and Heavy D for purchasing them for me).

Long Weekend = Long Week

I love a nice holiday weekend but it always makes the following week a bit hellish, it's almost like we have to cram the 5 days of work into 4.  I'm not complaining, I'm just saying.  These past few days I feel a bit jet lagged and I haven't even travelled.

Speaking of which, Vegas super soon.  Pool, drinks, sun, roulette, food and preciousness.  

Back to the weekend...I had such a grand one, I'm feeling a bit autumnish so I baked some pumpkin pie, roasted a chicken, made brownies and drank bubbly.  I also spent some amazing moments with some amazing people, we took on Lark Street and were victorious.  Can't wait to do it again.  We also took on Circus Cafe, however we didn't win that battle, it was all downhill when we were approached to take part in a foursome!  I also spent one last day at the track, good times, even though our horse came in dead last.  I think it's still runnning.  The track season is over, happy to see it go, fall is here and winter is around the corner...blah...well my sauce is bubbling over, I must go!  Peace Possums!

Where in the world...

...have I been? To say that last week was pure insanity is an understatement. All hell broke out at work but I do have to say that I enjoyed myself. I had to go to the city on Saturday for work (and a bit of play). Saturday was the huge Birthday Bash at Vapor. It was a great time. On top of that my week was filled with some amazing social activities which included two of the funniest nights of my life...hands down. I have video footage, but I can't promise I will post it. Speaking of posting videos, I'm still waiting on the Cher video. Maybe this week??? Other than that, I'm upset we don't' have Columbus Day off, hopefully today will be quiet so I can catch up on my blogging (and work). Have a splendid day!

When you have friends like mine...

...life is pretty damn good.

Sorry for the lack of updates. Life has been a flurry of activity these past couple days and the weekends are even worse (not that I'm complaining). I must share something that is perhaps one of the most heart warming moments of my life. Please bear with me as I hash out all the details.

As you may have heard, my Cher concert in Vegas was cancelled. Of course I was devastated. So when you have friends like mine, they did everything they could to make things better. I'll spare you the play-by-play as the video (which should be uploaded this week) speaks for itself. Most everyone at my work chipped in to hire a Cher impersonator to come in during lunch and perform for me. I was just taken back by the thoughtfulness. I'm truly blessed.

All the mushy stuff aside, it was great fun and I went to bed that night (and every night thereafter) thanking whoever was listening for all the great people in my life. October really is off to a wonderful start.

xoxo
