Hey, hey! How was everyone’s Memorial Day Weekend? My recap comes a bit late, but we had a nice, relaxing weekend and the weather was beautiful (which means, not too hot!). On Saturday was J and my 11th anniversary (*gasp*, I know! I can’t believe we’ve been married for that...

J and I hadn’t really taken a real vacation in quite some time when we decided to take a little trip for our anniversary (which was in May). I was more than thrilled. Originally I had been secretly hoping to plan a getaway to Hawaii (which is still on my...

{source: my flickr} The other day, I wrote about how I came to California and fell in love. 10 years ago today, I met J. I told you the whole story on how we met last year here, so I won’t repeat that, but what I didn’t share is where...

Aren’t long weekends the best? I had been looking forward to this long weekend for the whole month of May, since the last few weeks had been so busy with the move and lots of stuff going on at work. I know I am pretty spoiled with my 3-day weekends...

To be honest, I’ve never been much of a gamer. My sister and I never had a computer of our own when we still lived with my parents and we definitely did not own any computer games or game consoles. Occasionally we would be exposed to video games at our...
