Long Time No Post!

Sorry guys! Its been crazy with work doubling hours, school, HALLOWEEN and general crazyness. I will try and be better. Sow ith so much going on, here are some pictures!! First off I got my first reading glasses since the mid 90's! Rad :) Ordered them through Coastal.com and am GREATLY pleased. Of course as Im writing this I have forgotten them, but meh. I also have been drinking Trader joe's pumpkin Rooibos tea, which is delightful!! I highly recomend it, infact bought a second tin of it just in case :) Over the weekend a party was had that will be described shortly, but I was Carmen San Diego and Gentleman Friend was Waldo!! We were a hit :3

This week the GIANTS WON THE WORLD SERIES!!! Which means for those not in the know, San Francisco played baseball goooood. Lol! It was insanity in the streets, including rioting and the burning of 3 Muni busses (public trans) at the cost of around $71k A PIECE. And the city decided to forgive the violators as it was the world series. Good to know we have first world problems, eh? Anywho, there was a parade that stopped the city for like 8 hours to welcome them home from Detroit. I was sadly in class but after met Gentleman Friend for a bit and we bought some bootleg pennets off the street- 2 for $5! So nice so nice. Also GF's soft ball team is UNDEFEATED!! and off to the championship!! We celebrated with Pizza, beer and drunken co workers. So much fun!!

At work yesterday everyone was either sick, in Giants gear or decked out for the holiday. 




Gentleman Friends work doesnt allow costumes, but he can still be festive

So back to the party. Saturday after working all day, my co-worker Peter had an epic party! My camera doesnt have a flash but I got a few blurry pictures. There were drinks, a live band, lead by the host, and tons of good people and great costumes! Of course the people from men's shoes were the rowdy-est and partyest!! Ya we rock. There was a pumpkin used as a keg with ale, which I thought was quite clever!! All in all it was awesome. We didnt stay too late as the officers would be out looking for tickets to hand out

FOOD! PICTURES! And Other Amazing things part 2

Thank for staying tuned!! I decided to break up the joy of this amazing weekend since there so picture heavy. So for Sunday I was supposed to work but decided to go to Gentleman Friends Co-workers picnic instead. SOOOO GLAD I DID!!! They made short ribs, sushi bake, watermelon, fried chicken, low mien, and so much more! I spent another day eating myself silly. The BBQ was out in San Mateo at a lovely park on the water. the wind was up and a little crazy, and I was dressed in full work gear of skirt, blazer and tights, but so much fun was had. Families brought their kids who were soooooooo cute!! The water was great, and even with the wind the weather was warm. GF's co workers were lovely and their spouses were as well. Another great day!! Oh ya, after we went and watched the Olympics. Gowd I miss TV.


So Monday the greatness continued, GF had tickets to the Giants/Mets game. We met up after he got off work and I was out of class (finished half my final!!! :D ) For dinner we went to the American Grill for the first time. it was pricier then the Melt but REALLY good Grilled Cheese! Plus the atmosphere was delightful.  the only off putting thing about it was one of the servers looked like my ex.... creepy....





Gentleman Friend and his tallness

Then we headed to the Giants game and had GREAT seats. The game was slow (even for baseball). about half way through the game we got a little peckish and split a Bacon Wrapped Hotdog. It was delightful. They had run out of onions and jalapenos for it but it came smothered in chipotle mayo and was still good. Just an FYI though the Bacon Dog at the Blues Fest was better. So when in Giants Stadium save the $8.




 Today was dance with Patsy which I love. After a quick lunch at the lovely Cafe Esmeralda, I headed to the Aunts house and took some pictures of their AMAZING garden. One day I'll have a garden like this. Also they gave me tons of home grown apples from their tree, plums from their tree, and more blackberries then I have consumed in the last 3 years combined.







and a cool car at local coffee shop when I pulled in

PS local coffee shop is amazing. They gave me a FREE refresher for wearing my amazing My Little Pony shirt with Northstar on it. Ugh I have so much homework to do, but Marc Maron is much more interesting right now.
