Matt the Lost Boy launched his top 100 Thailand blogs ranking. Guess who came in at #21? ETA: Ranking changed daily. So I’ve dropped like gazillion spots since the launch. Haha! Get over there and help me at least stay on the list, okay? I am surprised and honored to actually get to share the edge of the spotlight where the really good blogs about Thailand are featured. My blog is more of a personal rant and rave with some Thai flavors. Well, heck, I’m Thai! What other flavor is this blog going to have? Even my husband says that...

Seriously. Friday was a combination of hard work and fun. Nhien and I managed not to hurt ourselves while moving all sorts of boxes of our printed matter around the office and worked up a pretty good appetite. We grabbed Celeste and Pat and headed to Sushi Go 55 and the rest is over there. We came back just in time for me to throw the office birthday party. With yummy stuff from Delilah Bakery, everyone had a happy afternoon, all hopped up on sugar! I mean, all 6′ 5″ of Canadian Greg scooted over to us on this thing...

Saturday at the El Dorado Nature Walk with the boys, Brandon and Erik. We also got into a little bit of a public art project. As I was coming home the past week, I noticed there were these flat, wooden stakes duct-taped to a few lamp posts along the road. I wondered what they were for so I asked Brandon when we drove by. The most logical explanation is that these were parts of political campaign signs. Folks just removed the paper part and not taking off the rest. Brandon said jokingly, “Maybe somebody needs to protect themselves against vampires...

No TGIF for me after all, my friends. Welcome to one of the longest day of my life so far this year. 8:00 a.m. – Woke up and had some cuddle time with Brandon. That was nice. Until… 8:40 a.m. – Startled awake. OMFG!!! I managed to the turn off the alarm. Must leave the house in 10 minutes to make my 9 a.m. doctor’s appointment. 9:04 a.m. – Walk into the doctor’s office. Annual physical exam went well. Will find out about the blood works later. 9:30 a.m. – Grabbed a tuna sandwich and blueberry smoothie from Fresh &...

Thursdays are now designated “Guys Night” by Brandon and his buddies. That doesn’t mean they would all go out and do anything crazy. Just dinner and a few beers. Perhaps they may just order pizza and watch a movie or something like that. Something that seem to be too much for the girls. We only have once a month dinner date and we can barely keep it. Haha. I’m sure that would launch a thousand conversations on men v.s. women thing. I *do* have a bunch of people who would want to go out and grab a beer or two...

…for… Arrival of Peanut/Dresden. We have been on baby watch all weekend for Aurora and James’ first child. Or as James’ WoW gang would say, “We’re waiting for Dresden to spawn.” Apparently, Nan is on baby watch as well. Let’s see who’ll be here first! Tuesday. Because Stargate SG-1 The Ark of Truth comes out on DVD. Now we can put the whole damn Ori crap to rest. AND hopefully give SG-1 a better sign-off than the stupid time traveling series finale. March 19. The day I head to San Diego to hang with Olaina and Justin for 3 days....
