mmmmmmm

So yeah. Our company's slogan for 2007 is "Members and Margins". M&M. We have M&Ms-themed stuff all over the building. Including FRAMED M&Ms on the walls by our elevators.

Aren't we supposed to be a classy, upscale place? I mean, really... look at that fancy schmancy wallpaper! The doofy looking blue M&M guys just kills the whole look. Lame!

rain rain go away

Slowly but surely... I'll catch up to the correct number of pictures. I just can't help it if my life has been a bit too hectic lately to remember to pull out my camera! :)

Yesterday while on a conference call (you know how I feel about conference calls), I made an exciting addition to my desk calendar. I have pre-purchased my tickets for HP#5... my mom and I are going to see it on July 12. Yay!! Hence the logo on that day.... And yes, before you say anything... I *am* that cool.

In other news... we've had some really crazy weather here in Texas. Lots of rain and clouds and storms. Here's two photos from today... the first is taken out of the window of my boss's office. Check out those clouds! And the second is clearly the aftermath... several hours later. I saw it in the sky over my neighborhood when I was driving home from taking Stella to the vet. I love rainbows!!!

All I can say is that hope this damn rain goes away soon. It's getting slightly old. Hello, this is supposed to be Texas - sunny and hot hot all summer!! Come on now.

poor girl

Miss Stella did not like being at home without me Sunday night. She hasn't eaten since Monday breakfast.

Doesn't she look so sad? We're having some girl time tonight. About to pop in a movie and play with some toys. Yeah baby!!

happy bday xtina

Here are two pictures from Saturday night (since Sunday was spent cleaning, packing and flying)... Christina's birthday wine party! It was a great time - lots of food, wine, and fun people! She's got more pictures from the evening on her blog (look to the right) in case you're interested!!

This first one is a pre-party photo. Jackie and I joined forces to get Christina a great (no, perfect) birthday gift. The theme was dessert... dessert wine, dessert plates, and Sprinkles cupcakes! So appropriate. Here's what it looked like after we (and by "we" I mean Jackie) spent Saturday afternoon wrapping the presents...

Later on the wine started flowing! And the food, too... whatever those puff pastry things were were amazing. I'm pretty sure we could have just sat there with the whole basket on our laps and been content for the rest of the evening. Happy girls... Jackie, Jackie, and Christina!

I didn't get a chance to take any pictures while I was in Nashville yesterday.... it was just GO GO GO the whole time (just barely over 24 hours). So I'll make it up to you with another double-post later in the week. :)

ghetto booty

Another special delivery at work today! Yay for my cute new brown tank top with the guitar on the back! The picture kind of distorted when it shrank (is my ass really that big?!), but it's cool... you get the idea!

Ordinarily I wouldn't wear the extra wifebeater underneath, but seeing as I was at work... hardl appropriate to just strip down at my desk.......

bling bling

This evening I bought Miss Stella a new collar. It's a choke chain, so it's a little loose on her unless she's pulling on the leash. It looks like a big ghetto fabulous chain necklace. We will call it her *bling*.


Aren't you just falling in love with my dog? She is so adorable. You would never know that deep down she's a vicious beast who would very much like to kill my mom's dog.... :)

more recklessness

Yeah, just another picture I took while driving. But in my defense... it was pretty nice outside. I felt that a day like today deserved some recognition.

Such a welcome change from all the crazy storms and rain we've been having lately. I know droughts are bad, but flooding is worse. Plus Stella and I are scared of thundestorms...
