So I managed to snag a flu. Woo hoo, big winner.
After a long night out celebrating Darlene’s birthday and watching the Mango Kingz perform at Da Hukilau in San Francisco on Saturday, I woke up on Sunday morning with a feeling beyond worse than a hangover. No, really.
I’m normally one of those “I-don’t-like-to-take-medicine” [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve updated on my 101 in 1001 progress. Since my last update, I’ve purchased a couple more albums, went on a one-on-one date with Alyssa, threw a surprise baby shower for my co-worker, and I’ve scheduled another Isagenix Cleansebeginning July 7th through July 15th. I felt like the [...]

Folks, I’m sorry to announce that Sebastian has passed away. He and his wife were just starting to consider having a child, too.
Here’s the painful part… my nephew killed him!!

Wow. This has got to be a joke.
I know, who on earth would really devote any time or energy into joking about my Alexa rank, but still.
I think I’m obsessed.
Well, I’d throw myself an ice cream social to celebrate my petty victory, but I scarfed down a king-size Drumstick last night and, as I [...]

Okay — this isn’t going to be nearly as exciting to you as this is to me, but I’m sharing it anyway. I know there are people out there (like Fashion Paramedic) who understand and can relate!
GEMMERZZ.com is my new blog. I had pulled my last blog, EyesOfMine.com, entirely because my boyfriend (at [...]
