& that's the way life goes

I feel like I look in this picture. I’m all “fuck you” for no reason at all.  Nothing irritating is going on and work is ok for the most part.

{I will be flying to Chicago next week for business}

But I’m just brimming with attitude. Ready for a fight.

Wonder what the future has in store. Whatever I am getting ready mentally.

How is your week?

bwahahahaha

Anyhow, I’ve been a bad blogger so let’s do a little housekeeping around here. If I’m not cleaning my house I should be cleaning up somewhere and this is easier to do away from home. This is also known as quite photo heavy.

My BFF non-blood related sister LP turned 30 on February 5. We went out for a fancy dinner and I spent a nauseating amount of money. I did find an awesome champagne that is also made in Michigan that I adore and you can order it online. It’s called Sex which just makes it even better.

Bessie had a housewarming party that was hosted by Durex (thank you houseparty.com) – which means we blew up the extra large condoms and tossed them around like adult balloons.

this would have been a cute picture if i could just be normal

i couldn't figure out how to blow it up - mandy however, was pretty good at it

it may or may not left lube stains on the ceiling

Our second annual Michigan Blogger meetup was a total success with 19 bloggers showing up to hang out in Ann Arbor. FTW!

C has proven that the house would fall apart without him. On Saturday he was both a plumber and electrician. Our bathroom sink has been clogged for quite some time, no I’m not telling you how long because that would be gross, but we needed to do something about it because LP is going to be staying at our house. He got the drain snake out and went at it from the sink, then took off some pipe and when that didn’t work he had the brilliant idea to use his air compressor. It worked and we don’t have to pay a plumber, woohoo! We finally bought a light fixture/ceiling fan to replace this ridiculous one in our kitchen (again I’m not telling you how long we went without because that would show our laziness), he had to redo some wiring and voila LIGHT in the kitchen.

It’s hard to believe that I only met Jenni, Lauryn, Sarah, Mandy, Mae and Megan a year ago!  We have had so many fun adventures in 2010 and I know there are more to come.  I never thought I’d make such great friends by blogging but clearly I’m so glad I did.  The lovely Sarah has organized the 2nd Annual Michigan Blogger Meet Up so if you live in Michigan or  if you feel like driving in to hang out we would love to meet you!

Leave a comment here or head over to Sarah’s blog to be added to the list.

I did this last year and I enjoyed it so much that I thought I’d do it again.  If you love getting snail mail as much as I do, fill out the form below and I’ll send some holiday joy your way.

C always fakes embarrassment when I say that I’m Irish.  Clearly, it’s buried under my Filipino genes.  But that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy a Guinness, the color green, shamrocks or kisses cuz I’m Irish.  Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

Somethings going on in my Reader:

– Jenni would like some advice on how to help her parents get into a healthy lifestyle. Any advice would be appreciated.

— Mae is having tea for two and exposes her vulnerabilities to her readers

– Gingela is having a giveaway on her blog – Scotch Fur Fighter!

– Claire is celebrating her 5 year anniversary with her boyfriend, who she introduces to the internet today

– Walking on Sunshine is doing Youtube Tuesdays, check it out

– Nora’s kept up with her resolution to read 3 books a month, she’s got some good ones on her list

– Sarah is getting tattooed today! I’m jealous, it’s time for me to get some more ink done

And lastly, I leave you with bulldogs snowboarding
