Happy Birthday Millie and Janet!!

So, last week we celebrated a couple of my friends birthdays by going out for some Thai food and hanging out at my friend Millie's house. One of the reasons I think I love my job is the chance to work w/so many amazing people, and these guys happen to be 3 of them. I love it because they are always so willing to share ideas and they constantly crack me up. We always have such a great time together that we actually choose to hang out outside of work. Thanks for a great night you guys!!

On a side note, this is Millie's dog Kita. Isn't she the most beautiful dog? I know some of you are big on the little dogs, but I am a sucker for big dogs. She is so cute and playful and it's hilarious b/c even though she's huge, i don't think she realizes her own strength....my friend calls her baby huey. :)

Good music and a Good Read

So, I love a good c.d. and particularly if it's a soundtrack. Here's an oldie but a goodie that my friend Alison let me borrow. Who remember's this show? So, the theme song is by far the best, the other ones are a tad too instrumental for my taste. Maybe I'll put one of the songs on my playlist for old time's sake. Kim, this soundtrack will forever remind me of you!




Next, onto a great little book I just read. I've always loved Teddy Roosevelt. I think it was after hearing how he used to let his kids ride their pony through the White House that sold me. Anyway, it's a quick read (with big print :)and I really liked that it was a little peek into who he was as a person.

Guilty Pleasures......

O.k., so I'll admit while I would like to say that I spent 3 hours of last night doing more productive things, but would they have been as entertaining as my Bachelor marathon? The funny thing is, I know a lot of acting goes into their "falling in love" and I think a lot of people are just there for the exposure, but the way they built up the finale, I felt like I couldn't afford to miss "the most dramatic Bachelor finale in history".

So, the first 2 hours were dedicated to his final 2 picks meeting his fam and having one last big date. Oh and almost forgot to mention, in New Zealand, where each of the girls was put up in a beautiful home w/amazing views (geez, sign me up if that's part of the package). So, long story short, he chose Melissa, tried it out w/her for the 6 weeks after the show cut and realized that their chemistry had changed and called things off w/her "live" on the "After the Rose" show and then asked Molly if she would be willing to give him another chance, after he had already said he was in love w/someone else. She agreed and now they're going to give it another go.

I personally think he should've gone w/Jillian, totally felt like they were a better match. I don't know maybe it's the pride in me, but I don't think I could be as forgiving as Molly. I think I would be like "Nope, you had your chance and I've moved on".

For those fans out there, and I know there are many, don't be afraid to admit it, what did you guys think of the finale?
