I <3 Olivia Munn

One memorable hour on the set of Attack of the Show!  At one point, Olivia called me over during break. “So Oakley, where are you from?” “Los Alamitos…and Thailand.” “So which is it? Huh? Huh?” “Both!” “You’re lying, aren’t you? You fucking liar.” And then she introduced me to her co-host Kevin. “This is Oakley. She’s a liar.” “Oh, hi. You’re a liar?” “Yes. I am.” “Really?” “No.” “What?” “Dude, I’m a liar.” Hence this: Anyways. Oh, yes.  Olivia is just like who we see on television, people.  Except even prettier in real life.

Starbucks chocolate croissant I never got to finish.  We had birthday party today in the office so I was saving room for cake. . Lunch Brown jasmine rice with 2 sticks of barbecue “beef” skewers and 4 cherry tomatoes.  The skewers look like poop, seriously like a log of poop.  It did have very meaty texture, though, and less soy tasting.  Unlike the marinaded “chicken” I had a while back. A mini red velvet cupcake…more like a shot...

That was so 2009

2009 in pictures * 2009 Awards Drinking Buddy of the Year: Brandon, actually. Surprise!  The mister doesn’t usually party down, but he has taken up a beer here and there this past year, a stressful one for his work.  So we had gone out for a beer together more than the year before.  Cheers to you, honey bunny! Bar of the Year: Hennessey’s Tavern and Beachwood BBQ in Seal Beach. These two places never fail to deliver cold pints and some great eats.  They’re our go-to places when we want to run away from the daily life for a little...
