i know...my blog is trash, but...

another reason to hate ... the hills ... i hate (and yes i know hate is a strong word but i am using it) the fake scripted reality show the hills but a once a week (i try to do it when nick is not home to save face) it is on our tv! its like they annoy me so much i just have to see what stupid thing they are doing this week! well my friend, he just doesn't know it, perez hilton, found out how much each one of them gets paid to have their "real lives" taped! they should invite the mormon girl morgan back on the show, but she is either married with two kids by now or in rehab getting off meth...or both!

in case you were wondering...

what an amazing preschool teacher I am, friday was a students last day because they are moving so they bought me a dooney & bourke purse to say thank you!

he was by far my favorite and i will miss him so much! he always made me laugh! even on tuesday after a child screamed in my ear for 45 minutes because he "didn't know where batman was and he missed him" not a batman toy or movie, the real batman and during this two turds ( i don't know a better word for it) had fallen on my bare toes!

as soon as I announce ....

as soon as I announce that I am pregnant, which I am not, and we are not trying to be at the moment! I would like someone to buy this for me and if no one does then you can Nick...love you!

sunday dreaming...

riding bikes in mission beach make me love this bike ensemble..





and Nick and I have been researching what kind of trees/plants to get for our balcony that 1) can survive the constant love and attention of me and 2) can survive the chi-town winter. How fab are these garden clothes?

sandyeggo!

World's Largest Block Party

We headed out to the World's Largest Block Party last night; it's a fundraiser for Old St. Pat's Church. Two of our favorite bands were playing: Ben Kweller and Rusted Root.

Ben Kweller was on first, about 30 minutes after we rolled into town. It was disappointing how many people were there, but maybe only 100-200 were actually watching and listening to him play. He was great though, we're going to try to go when he comes in September.

After Ben, we decided we needed to get some new food to replace the nasty nachos we had purchased. Below, the "bucket of fries" that included nacho cheese, jalapenos and bacon; it was delicious!

Rusted Root was awesome. We had a great time listening to them, but decided to leave early because of my experience there last year (ended up walking about 3 miles home).

So, we went looking for a cab. Quite a few other people decided to go looking for a cab at the same time. After many false positives and a lot of cursing at people that ran in front of us, a limo driver pulled over and asked where we were going.

This is where the night takes a turn for the less-enjoyable. We got in the limo and headed for home.... (to be continued)
