USC Trojans football team. How I love thee! Oh, yeah, baby. I am soooooo back with the football season after having missed the opener two weeks ago. There was no college football on Thailand’s cable, by the way. Just, oh, I don’t know, 3 channels of soccer and one that seems to be alternating between ML baseball and rugby. I think once NFL starts up, you get a few games in there too. Anyway. I got a big ol’ welcome back to the realm of the Trojans by spending the entire evening in front of James and Aurora’s gigantic screen...

I know I do rant about how boys make cool friends once in a while, but when it comes down to what a girl needs, a small girl’s night out is always the best therapy.

And here’s an interesting view of Downtown LA the other day. Please excuse my giant finger…...

I was up at 6:30 a.m. this morning. Jet lag is getting better! I did end up getting to work at 6 a.m. on Thursday morning. LOL. I drove in and left promptly at 3 p.m. and miraculously got home without killing myself. I did steal a solid hour of nap later in the afternoon though. How solid? I started the nap laying on the couch. When Brandon came in to wake me up, I was sitting and I had no idea how I got there. Yeah…interesting, isn’t it? But a sleepy Thursday worked out to my advantage as I...
