A BBQ, a sunny weekend, Pride and Gummi Love, and many drinks...
I have to keep stressing that my work has gone into summer hours until Labor Day - this involves 4 hours of work on Friday that count for 8 hours, and you don't have to make up the missing 4 hours earlier in the week.
Having said that, Friday at 1:45 pm found me at HH with my colleagues enjoying some cheap beverages. Blondie and Sweetie J joined up around 3 pm, and we headed out to get some margaritas before going to see "The Hangover". I about gave myself a heart attack watching that movie as it was HYSTERICAL. I think at the end all I could say was "My face hurts!!!" b/c I had been laughing so hard.
After the movie, it was back from drinks to end our evening. It was a blast hanging out with Sweetie J, and the movie/margs/beers just completed the day.
I bought a game for the Wii - EA Active. I have to say that on a scale of 1 to 10 of how much I recommend this (10 being the highest), my score would be 25. To me, it's way worse than bootcamp in terms of intensity, but also way better b/c it's only 25-33 minute workout sessions (I'm at the end of the 30-day workout program). Also, when I'm bitchy in the mornings, and I say "Fuuuuuck you" to my virtual trainer, he can't hear me and call me out on it! SO MUCH BETTER than bootcamp.
Anyway - Saturday, I worked out with EA Active for several hours - I did my 30 day program, and then went into another hour long program that is separate. When I was done, you could wring the sweat out of my t-shirt. All of this from working out in the apartment.
Afterwards, I headed down to get my toes done and my eyebrows waxed while Blondie went for a run. It was beautiful weather - non-typical SF weather to be honest. Sunny and warm - no clouds, no fog.
That evening we headed over to Shelbs and Bbbb for a cookout. I have a love of all things gummy (bears, swedish fish, juicy twists - you name it, gummy is my poison) and Shelbs had found this fabulous shirt in Austin - it's 1 gummy bear doing another gummy bear from behind. Also, this weekend was Pride. My full belief on Pride is this - whatever any consenting adults want to do with each other, should be completely fucking legal. I want to marry 3 men and 1 woman? Legal. I want to marry a gummy bear? Legal b/c the gummy bear isn't alive. I want to marry a 17-year-old? NOT LEGAL - wait until that kid turns 18.
Anyway, in honor of Pride, I wore my gummi love t-shirt - I was a little worried b/c I didn't want to freak any little kids out, but Blondie pointed out that this is SF, and that shirt is way less crude than what happens on a daily basis anywhere in the city. This statement was perfect b/c as we were on our train riding to the NV for our BBQ, we passed a woman walking to the Pride rally wearing 1) jeans, 2) sneakers, 3) paint to cover her nipples, 4) nothing else.
The BBQ was awesome! The burgers and potato salad were out of this world, and were supplemented nicely by the hurricane mix I brought back from my trip to NOLA.
Yesterday was another beautiful day - and I took advantage of it by going for a run. I'm going to run a full marathon in May 2010 and it's time to start training again. As much as I bitched about bootcamp above, one thing my trainer from bootcamp taught me was how to get through runs (it really was all in my head). So I busted out 2 miles (*without stopping*) in a fairly quick time for me, seeing as how I'm just starting to run again.
And the rest of the day was spent in front of the TV - which was a perfect end to the weekend.
This is a 3.5 day work week for me, so here's hoping it goes fast.
Happy upcoming 4th to everyone!

Happy happy birthday!!!
The Cutest Kid In The World turns 4 today!!!! I can't believe how fast time has gone. It feels like just yesterday, I flew into Cincinnatti butt early in the morning to catch a glimpse of the first kid that ever stole my heart. And then just 2 months later, I was so in love with her, that I drug Blondie back with me to Kentucky.
Have a great birthday sweetie! I'll see you in a few months.

50000 lbs of crawfish, in my belly!!!!
Because god knows I hadn't eaten my weight in crawfish when I was in NOLA, Blondie and I decided to hit up the 7th annual SF Crawfish Boil yesterday. We joined Mr and Mrs K, and several of our other friends to partake in $25 all-you-can-eat and drink!!!! They lost money on us.
It was a blast. First off, it was a GORGEOUS SF day. The sun was out, a slight breeze, it was warn enough for short sleeves. Second, the Crawfish Boil was on the bay - behind us was the GG Bridge, in front of us was a spectacular city view, to one side was Alcatraz/the bay/every sailboat that exists in SF, and to the other side was the hills of the Presidio.
We got to the boil around 11 am, after being escorted over by a fantastic woman that we happened to run into while we were pondering which way we needed to go from the parking lot. She overheard us talking, knew immediately where we were headed, and walked us over. She's lived in SF for a long time, and actually lives right by GG Park.
The day was just spectacular - the food was so good, the beer was free, and the friends are fantastic!
The only bad part is the INSANELY bad sunburn I'm sporting now (Blondie too!). I have a tomato head and arms, and Blondie is now officially a redneck.
Today was spent relaxing, watching Slumdog Millionaire, and reading.
Also, in other news, I broke down and bought EA Active for our Wii - it's a great game and reminds me so much of bootcamp! It gets my heart rate up and gets me moving! I've been hitting the gym again for the past month, and have started adding in the game the past week. I've got to get in shape for 2 major events coming up:
1) The wedding of Shelbs and Bbbb! Don't want to be the fat bridesmaid.
AND
2) GREENBAY MARATHON (full) - May 2010!!!!! Blondie, MG, and I will be running the entire thing, and drinking beer and eating brats after!

NOLA baby, NOLA...
What a freaking blast!!!! First, it was so good to get away for awhile. I miss taking vacations, and this certainly helped fill that void. And then of course, getting to hang with just my mom and sis was a great experience too - that rarely happens for good reason. Blondie and I make it back to KY maybe twice a year.
Anyhoo, flights out last week were rocking good, and got to the hotel without issue. My mom and I immediately set out for Pat O'Briens, the home of the HURRICANE! I was on an empty stomach, and slammed 2 of those suckers down in no time. Then, we headed to Bourbon Street. I got my aura and tarot cards read, and let me tell you, the aura reading freaked me out - it was seriously like this guy had followed me around for 34 years and then spilled everything he had seen about me. The hurricanes didn't help the paranoia either. :)
After the readings, mom and I kept walking Bourbon Street - and we saw a mini-parade come through! They tossed mom some beads, and we followed them for awhile.
I got to eat some oysters that night and gumbo for dinner, and then it was off to gamble the evening away.
The next day mom and I slept in late while sis headed to her conf. We ended up going to tour the aquarium in the afternoon, and then met up with sis for dinner on Bourbon Street followed by a HAUNTED NOLA TOUR! That was honestly my favorite part of the trip for the following reasons:
1) Sis got some AWESOME pictures of the haunted houses - she had so many floating things in her pics that it was freaky!
2) We headed down a street where they were filming a Josh Brolin movie - all the lights and cameras were out, and it was pretty cool.
3) We stopped at the oldest bar in America for drinksies - they make an alcoholic grape slushee that rocked my world.
4) The entire tour was just eerie - the 2nd to last stop is a house owned currently by Nicolas Cage and the story she told about the house was just beyond belief.
Saturday, sis got to end her stuff early so we all had some lunch, and then did a Mississippi River cruise followed by a tour of Mardi Gras World (where they store the floats for the parade). Afterwards, we headed to Cafe Du Monde for some out of this world beignets and then rode the streetcar down Canal Street. We ended up with some killer mexican food (it was my decision and I'm embarrassed that I made us eat mexican when there was so much good cajun food around!)
Sunday was hard, b/c we had to get up so early and it's always sad saying goodbye. Then my flight out of DFW was delayed for several hours due to maintenance and weather in the SF area. But it ended good b/c I did get to see Will Forte in the airport.
We've agreed that we are going to start a tradition of 3 or 4 day weekend trips for the women on a yearly basis also!!!
Please note: NOLA has no restrictions on public drinking. Everywhere we went, I had a drink in my hand.
Please also note: Blondie, we should move to NOLA b/c of this.

Celebrity F'ing Sighting!!!!!!!
Will Forte, of "Gillie!" fame (aka SNL cast member), waiting on his flight to NYC (I assume anyway) today at SFO!!!!!
I was going to go up and scream GILLIE! at him but I'm sporting a massive zit on my chin and a bug bite on my cheek. And I smelled. And my breath tasted like a thousand skunks sprayed in my mouth.
On the other hand, I tripped over my own feet staring at him, which caused him to look at me, so yeah, he totally noticed me. I rule.
More on my super fantastical Nawlins trip tomorrow! Had a TOTAL blast!

Reno... Bay to Breakers... Need another weekend...
RENO WAS A BLAST!!!! We had so much fun on our mini-trip. We were joined by Brother R and Shugs, Shelbs and Bbbb, and The K's. It was quite the drunken trip (to be expected), with the loss of quite a lot of $$$ (also to be expected b/c I was *gambling*), but with a whole hell of a lot of fun tossed in (also to be expected based on the crew that went).
Brother R, Shugs, Blondie and I headed up to Reno and were there by 5 pm or so. We played a bit of blackjack and just tooled around for awhile until everyone else got there. We were up pretty late learning Pai Gaw and shooting Craps. The next day we all got to meet up for champagne brunch (I drank all the champagne and ate none of the food) and then we went and checked out Reno.
I have to say this, Reno is a really nice city. We headed down to the river walk which had a festival going on. We watched the kayak'ers for awhile, and then started back to the hotel. But on the way, we passed a bar that had outdoor music, belly dancers and hula hoopers! We enjoyed extremely cheap local beer, and even had the owner try to give us free cake.
When we got back to the casino, most of us just started gambling again. We eventually met up with Brother R and Shugs for light-on-fire rum drinks, and then all of us went to dinner. Our planned meet-up at 10 pm that night didn't happen as almost all of us were passed out by then.
Bay To Breakers...
Yesterday:
10:15 am: "I'm not sure I want to go"
10:30 am: "GIVE ME A BEER!!!! NAKED PEOPLE!!!!"
3:30 pm: "Tommy's!!!!!! MARGARITAS!"
6:00 pm: passed out on couch
How I feel today.... (Pic taken by my sis)

Super Pooh...
Mr Pooh ran his first half-marathon yesterday!!!! Congratulations Mr Pooh! You did an awesome job, and we are so happy for you!
Cray Cray Uncle: "Hey Kim. Show me your t*ts"
Random Man: "Sir! This is a family channel!"
Blondie and I went with my family a few years ago for a week to Havasu. While there, we toured all over Arizona including a trip to the Grand Canyon. We were in 2 cars for this trip, so there were walkie-talkies involved. Since my entire family is basically a giant bunch of 12 year olds (me included), it was extremely funny when my Cray Cray Uncle said into a walkie-talkie the above statement. It was even funnier when a random who happened to be on our same channel said the other above statement back.
And speaking of showing your t*ts, I'm taking a trip at the end of May to New Orleans with my mom and sis! I'm very excited about it, mostly b/c I've never been to New Orleans sober. So maybe this time, I'll actually remember what I've done.
I definitely am going to get my palm read, and take a voodoo tour. I'm also going to eat some beignets. Oh, and also, even though I'm going to remain sober, I'm still going to drink a hurricane.
Migration Week has ended!!!
My project went live last weekend, and we've spent this past week cleaning up what was left. I'm really happy the project is done (whew), and am MORE THAN READY to move on to whatever is next for me. I've already been contacted by the team I used to work with to see if I can help out on a project, and my boss has slated me for helping out on a project that would look awesome on my resume. Bring. It. On.
Happy Birthday Blondie!
Brother R and Shugs will be out in 2 weeks to help celebrate Blondie's birthday. We will be headed to Reno with some of our friends and gambling/drinking all weekend.
And congrats again to Mr Pooh.

It's been awhile...
THE GOOD: RENO WAS A BLAST! Blondie and I had so much fun hanging out for our mini-break, we didn't even make it to Carson City b/c we didn't want to leave our casino. We rule. And then, on Sunday, when we were headed home, the pass over the Sierra Nevada's had closed down (snow), so we ended up turning around and staying another night in Reno. The best part was our room got comped. Can you tell we like to gamble?
THE BAD: Brother R is no longer working in San Jose. Sigh. I didn't realize how much I missed being around family (I miss them everyday of my life, but wasn't aware how much I miss them) until Brother R was here on a regular basis. Shugs gets him back for now, but hopefully there will be another project on his plate that will bring him back this way.
Blondie also made a trip back to The Land of Cheese to visit his family, celebrate his niece's 1-year birthday, and see his uncle get married. He'll have to fill everyone in on that trip.
While Blondie was gone, I enjoyed a weekend of debauchery. I met Party C and Miss HK on that Thursday to watch some NCAA games (congrats Mizzou!), and then headed to Berkeley on Saturday to hang with PC. She ended up coming back over Saturday night and we partied on Sunday all over the place.
This past weekend was also a good one - Blondie and I went to Sweetie J's for some most excellent food on Friday, before heading back to Haight with Party C and Dirty Sanchez to hang at our fav bar with our fav bartender. And I got back over to Berkeley on Sunday with my girls for brunch and a few beers in the sun.
This week is a draining one - I'm teaching training classes all week long, and it's a very tiring experience. I feel way worse than when I taught in grad school. Plus I'm coming down with some cold or sinus or something. It's knocking me on my ass.
We have some exciting plans coming up - my old boss is in the city today so I hopefully will get to meet her for a drink tonight, and then din din with Shelbs and Bbbb tomorrow night. I'm meeting my old Travelocity work group on Friday for some lunch - I'm looking forward to that as I haven't seen everyone in almost a year! We got a group together to go back to Reno in May for Blondie's birthday, including Brother R and Shugs. So many exciting things are on our table...

We got a group together to go back to Reno in May for Blondie's birthday, including Brother R and Shugs. So many exciting things are on our table...

San Francisco...
Via San Jose, Reno, Carson City, and Reno again.
We need a break. So we are taking one. I'm meeting Blondie in about an hour and we are driving down to San Jose to visit with Brother R for the evening. We will be making a quick stop back in the city tonight to sleep, and then we are off bright and early tomorrow am to head to Reno for the weekend!
We plan to gamble and watch NCAA games all day Friday, and then visit Carson City (the capital of NV - I bet my mom is the only person who knows this) on Saturday. Carson City is having a beer fest downtown, and for $10 you get a commerative mug and all you can eat apps, and beer. TOTALLY worth it.
I'm looking forward to our mini-break!
Baby Vegas, Baby!

KY...
What a great trip to see everyone! Our flight back was super early last Thursday, but Brother R was nice enough to give Blondie his 1st class seat, and ride coach with Yours Truly. The flight felt like it went really fast, and it did, b/c we even landed 30 mins early. Love the tradewinds when flying east!
TCKITW didn't remember me, which I expected. She ended up hiding from me 95% of the time, which was actually smart b/c all I wanted to do was ruffle her hair and kiss the top of her head. Oh, and also, apparently I turned into my mom as I also kept attempting to run my fingers over TCKITW's neck (which is something my mom does that drives me nuts).
TCKITW v4.0 however didn't seem to mind me too much. Of course, she is only 7 weeks old. She is a definite looker, and a total chatterbox also. She kept trying to tell everyone stories but mostly the stories sounded like "gahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh".
So now my heart is claimed by those 2 boogers.
Our trip, other than hanging with the nieces, rocked. We ended up bowling, where somehow we ALL did pretty good, and hanging out for a night of Rock Band at Mr and Mrs Pooh's house. I love when Mrs Pooh plays guitar, b/c she is very calm and stands very still when she does it. I tend to sway back and forth and kick my leg (thanks to PC) . "They" (the Poohs, Brother R, Blondie) ended up calling me Corky a lot b/c apparently I can't drum with my left hand.
We also had a game day at Brother R's house, which was a lot of fun. Other than the excessive amount of gas floating around the room.
And, yes, I've gone back to eating meat. Unfortunately it makes me feel like I need to throw up about 5 hours after I eat it (and I did throw up several times in KY), so it's very slow going right now.
Brother R is coming up to SF tonight to hang out and grab some dinner, and I'm totally looking forward to it! Plans for the weekend include sleeping, seeing a movie with friends, sleeping, grocery shopping, and did I mention sleeping?

Ready to go!!!!
Happy V-Day everyone!!!! Hope everyone had a great Valentine's Day! Hugs and kisses to my beautiful nieces - TCKITW V1.0-4.0; and to my family and friends (but you all will just get hugs).
The past weekend was pretty good - I was *exhausted* from last Wed - from my 3am start time, that led straight into 11:20 am, when I had to run down and catch a bus to downtown for a personal meeting, and then straight back to our apt where I did a quick workout, finally ate lunch, and then immediately took off for south bay. It was soooooo good seeing Brother R though! We had a most excellent dinner (with most excellent sangria), and then shot pool into the evening.
Friday I came home though and crashed, slept for 11 hours. Then on Saturday we said a pseudo good-bye to PC as she moved across the bay to Berkeley. It was a sad day in SF. But it got better b/c after the move, Blondie took me for doughnuts and sushi for V-Day. It was so perfect!!!
Yesterday we met up with PC for lunch (she was back in the city to finish cleaning up her old apartment) and then it was back to our house to literally lay on the couch all afternoon long.
But, now I'm READY TO GO!!!! Brother R will be driving up on Wed night to SF, and we are going to have some fun, and then Thurs morning, for the first time since last July, we are off to KY for the weekend. Brother R got on our same flight, and I'm totally looking forward to seeing everyone again and meeting TCKITW V4.0 for the first time! I'm *NOT* looking forward to the 3:30 am wake up for the flight though.
Oh well, can't win everytime. :)

A new perspective... A great weekend... A happy week...
I've sworn through my teeth for 21 years now that I hate skiing. And it was true. I loathed skiing. The whole 1 time I went, skiing overnight, at 13, without lessons - truly truly sucked. BUT, I'm attempting to figure myself out this year - and that will be involving why there are things that I won't do, or won't attempt to do - and one of those things is skiing.
Having said that, Blondie and I went up to Reno on Thurs and spent the night. We call it "Baby Vegas Baby". Reno was like the poor man's Vegas - which is exactly what we needed. The rooms were cheap (the hotels/casinos were super nice though), the gambling was cheap, the food was cheap and the beer was free. We had a great night playing craps and blackjack, and didn't want to leave on Friday.
But I'm glad we did, b/c we drove back into CA/Tahoe area, and took some ski lessons at one of the ski slopes. And guess what? I actually really liked it! I only fell a few times, but I felt in control of everything by the time our lessons were done. It was also a great workout, and I could feel it all through my legs all weekend long. So for all my bitching and moaning for 21 years, I could've been out there perfecting my skiing skills and having a blast. :) I will be back.
After skiing, we met up with 12 of our friends in our rented house for the weekend. We ended up hitting the casinos on Saturday again, and just enjoying everyone's company. It truly was the best weekend I've had in awhile.
And for the best news - Brother R is now working in the bay area!!!! He will be flying in for the week, and flying out for the weekend. This is the first time in 11 years that I will have lived in the same state as someone in my family. Blondie and I are off tomorrow afternoon to his city (San Jose) to hang out for the afternoon and eat some dinner with Brother R. SO LOOKING FORWARD TO IT!!!!

I've got nothing...
The title says it all - a post about nothing.
Blondie and I ran the Kaiser 5K this past Sunday. We both wore our Garmin watches and it turned out that the 3.1 mile course was really between 3.29 and 3.31 miles. To be fair, Kaiser did say that only the half-marathon course was certified, and the 5K course was not. But still.
Blondie did *amazing*, and ran it in 27:12, which would've been about 26:30 for a certified 5K. I did mine in 43 minutes (ha, nice job). But it would've equated to about 40-41 minutes for me. I've been tracking my time on my Garmin also, so although my time sucked, I was able to see that I kept my pace up much better than I have been. So that was 1 upside.
After our 5K, it was off to the Sisters C to watch the Superbowl.
For those who I'm on Facebook with, here is my "25 Things About Me", but it's not on Facebook (as I'm too lazy to pull it up right now), and I doubt it's going to be 25 things - but we'll see:
1) I don't like kids, but am madly in love with my nieces and they can do NO wrong.
2) I love my cats, and will carry on entire conversations with them (filling in their piece of course).
3) I love SF, but have got a giant bug up my butt to live in NYC for awhile.
4) I hate running. Hate it.
5) I'm trying not to hate running. It's not working so far. And has never worked.
6) My favorite beverages are beer and water. Honestly, if that's all I could ever drink again, I'd be fine with that.
7) I love when Blondie wears a blue shirt. It makes his eyes look infinite (sappy sappy sappy)
8) I love not having a car, and if I never own one again, I'd be fine with that.
9) Even though I love not having a car, I miss supermarkets with giant parking lots.
10) Even though I love not having a car, I miss gyms with giant parking lots.
11) I miss my family every single day of my life.
12) I miss my BFF TT every single day of my life.
13) I'm addicted to the SATC movie.
14) I'm also addicted to memoirs at the moment (read anything Jennifer Lancaster has written - she's bitterly funny).
15) My new nervous habit is cracking my right thumb - at least I'm not picking my teeth with my hair anymore.
16) In my wildest dreams, I'm a size 4 - but in real life, I'd be happy maintaining a size 10.
17) When I'm done in SF (or NYC), I will live in Chicago.
18) If I could vacation in only 1 place for the rest of my life... Vegas baby... Vegas. It's got everything anyone could want - pools, heat, gambling, free beer, shows... It's my dream city.
19) If I could do it all over again, I'd be a large animal vet (horses, cows, etc) - I couldn't deal with putting down pets, but could probably deal with handling larger animals.
20) I'd love to be vegan, but probably would die without sushi. Well, not die, but I definitely would make life miserable for Blondie if I couldn't get my sushi.
21) I'm listening to "Dani California" while I'm typing this - California, show your teeth.
22) I NEVER want to relive my high school years again. They were NOT the happiest of my life.
23) In the same vein, I love my life more each year - it's like wine or cheese, it keeps getting better with age.
24) Unfortunately my body does not get better with age.
25) I MADE IT TO 25!!!!!

Tiddlywinks!
This past week saw a visit from Blondie's brother, MG. MG flew in for a wedding, but was able to take some time off from school to hang with Blondie for a few days before and after the wedding. It was great getting to spend time with MG, and I *KNOW* Blondie had fun with the non-stop game playing that went on.
I've been working for 4 hours now - the last remnants of my old job. I have to train people from my old team on how to do this particular aspect of my old job, and let me say, it's not going well. This is because of course I JINXED it by telling everyone "oh this should be fast and easy". And it's neither been fast nor easy. Woot! And I'm going to guess after all this that we will have to fall back and do it all over again another day.
We have a lot of plans for the upcoming weeks: 5K, Superbowl (Go Steelers!), Reno for a night and then Tahoe for 2 days for skiing, helping a friend move to Berkeley (I'm going to miss me some PC!), Valentine's Day, and of course KY to visit TCKITW and TCKITW v4.0 and my fam.
Also, randomly, a reason I love Blondie so much is that we both find the stupidest things in the world amusing. Last night it was the word "balls". We were watching coverage of the inaugaration balls, and anytime an announcer would say balls, we would just die laughing. We. Are. So. Mature!

Fish... and your butt...
So, okay. Universe, I was totally kidding about the whole "Bring it on" thing in my NY resolution post. You've had your fun.
Blondie and I have not had the best start to the year - Blondie's catalytic converter was stolen off his truck, and I came down with "the sick" again. We've spent the last week holed up in our apartment, cursing the way the year has started.
I rejoined WW this past week, and getting back on track has been horrid. Especially when I've been sicker than a dog, and all I want to do is EAT. But I survived the first few days (always the hardest). I managed to get a run in the day the sick started again, and am feeling okay enough to do a minor workout tomorrow.
Blondie and I also signed up for Kaiser 5K on Superbowl Sunday. Party C will be running the Kaiser half the same day, so we will do our run, and then cheer her on.
We also have Tahoe plans the weekend after Superbowl. We are going to head up to Reno on that Thurs, and spend the night, before heading to our Tahoe house on Friday. I might try ski lessons this time, and Blondie has plans to snowboard again.
And of course, KY, to visit TCKITW v4.0!!!!
Hope everyone else's year has started off better than ours.
