To my friends:

If you have something to ask/say about me, please say it to me. If I feel comfortable sharing with you, I will. If I can’t or won’t, then I’ll politely decline.
Asking someone else personal questions behind my back is not cool. Asking her for anonymity is cowardly and diminishes the level of friendship we supposedly [...]

Luzaween!

Luzaween was a blast! We had hotdogs and sandwiches and tons of snacks, including our famous queso.
Emil and I both work with cops: I’m a tech writer at police academy and he provides IT support to the university police, so we came up with a cop-themed pair: Emil was the “good” cop and I was [...]

Made my day

I just got a phone call from a former co-worker. He’s looking to surprise a friend of our’s and wanted to make sure he was on the right track.
It was such a nice conversation and was so good to hear his voice. It really brightened my otherwise gloomy day.

friends - LOVE

Oh my GAWD do we have the most amazing friends!
Today, alone, I got several text messages, voice mails, phone calls, and IMs. All just wanted to share good vibes with me. During a week like this one, I can certainly use it.
I love you ALL!
kisses!

Once upon a time, I [...]

Our Commune

Some of you have heard us talk about the “commune” we’ve developed. It is our attempt to eat healthier, save money, and spend quality time with friends.
Here is our plan:

Lori menu plans
Jessica shops
Cady cooks
Emil cleans

We each chip in $5 per person per meal. Any extra money left over is used to purchase staples for use [...]

Don’t try this at home!

“Paralysis by over-analysis”

boot camp

A friend of our’s has a family member who has been in some trouble. Today, they found out that the District Attorney is recommending a boot-camp experience for him instead of prison. He should be sentenced in a couple of weeks, so unless the judge denies the plea arrangement, this is almost behind them all.
Our [...]
