My dad took these from inside the reception while I was outside getting hammered!
(Other things my dad said: “Don’t get any ideas. For your wedding, we’re bringing in White Castle.”)
The positively glowing Jessica at the head table…
Annie giving her toast. “To the journey!”
Here’s me and Nick eating our delicious wedding meal. I had Eggplant Napoleon [...]
Jess’s reception was at The Pennsylvanian, which used to be a railroad station.
(Probably the first and last time I will ride in a stretch hummer.)
In the rotunda was a raw bar, an antipasto table, and a glorious waitstaff that brought amazing foodstuffs TO YOU. Like LAMB LOLLIPOPS. (I very proudly used my Food Network/Top Chef [...]
I had never been a bridesmaid before this, but I’m pretty sure that I’m spoiled for life after this wedding. Everything was calm, and well-thought-out. There were no flip-outs, no breakdowns. Annie and I arrived at Jess’s house to get ready for the big day. The stylist and make-up artist who worked on Jess [...]
Chris’s parents graciously hosted the rehearsal dinner at Jess’s parents house. Despite the heat, it was a wonderful, wonderful evening of white tents and BBQ and drinking.
The plate closest to the camera was mine, and was the first full solid meal I had had since coming off the master cleanse. So much for raw [...]
The day I moved into my tiny single dorm room at Teter-Wissler 3, we had a meeting to get acquainted with everyone on the floor. The RA had come up with one of those “get to know you” games, where each person had a Disney character written on a piece of paper, and you [...]
I have a lot to talk about. (No, not about the flooding. Many people assume that I am under water or something, but HELLO I am in the city, NOT on the farms.) Here’s what you can look forward to in the next couple entries. It’s a blog APPETEASER…
Finally, the end of my SF pictures.
Damon’s [...]
While we visited mainly smaller wineries, there is something to be said for your larger, more famous ones. They are gorgeous, and have lovely lighting later in the day. Here’s a set from the Robert Mondavi Winery.
Another dog that I wanted to steal!
Annie + Chardonnay
Jess, having a moment.
Wish I could carry them in my pocket.
Okay, [...]
..and other wine cliches.
Hey - remember when I went to San Francisco weeks and weeks ago? I still have more pictures, suckahs!
I left you at the Robledo Family Winery. Here’s a couple more pics of the outside…
That guy sent us to the Larson Family Winery. Here’s a sign that greets you on the way in:
We had [...]
The first winery we went to was the Robledo Family Winery in Sonoma. Note the quaint little Mexican music and slogan: A family who found the true American Dream. It was ADORABLE. We were totally suckered in.
Larry was our taster-person/pourer? I don’t know what you call that that. But he told us the story [...]
I had been wanting to go to San Francisco for pretty much ever. When my college roomie Annie moved out there to be a sweet Californian nurse, it was the perfect excuse to make the trip for some straight west coastin’. Jess’s (also know as Jeezikah) brother lives out there as well, so she came [...]
I thought it was my imagination — the quick, shadowy flash moving from my TV to my sofa.
There was no mouse.
No, surely not.
Calm down.
I went to work for eight hours and then came back into the apartment while making a lot of noise. [You know, just in case.] I had just exhaled, forgetting the whole thing, when [...]
I few weeks ago, I told you of my adventure at the Exotic Feline Animal Rescue Center. That was just a taste. See people, I am a dirty Blog Tease. Here is the story in its entirety.
**Note: Behind the cut are some graphic images. (Discovery-Channel-Graphic)
**Note II: Thanks to Jeezikah for the pictures! :)
Annie and Jess pick [...]
From a few weekends back,
Jess, Annie, Me, Leah…
Drunkity Drunk Drunk.
(Thanks to , whose MySpace I totally stole this from)
Guess who was in town from Corporatesville, USA this past weekend?
JEEZIKAH!
Friday night was a balls-out revival of last year’s nights of debauchery. If I ran into you that night, I apologize for the extreme lack of articulation/balance/motor skills. The Morning After we found that
a) All the still photos we thought we took were actually videos.
b) I sporadically licked Damon’s [...]
Last Days, 2005.
Time to clean out the text message library that has collected in my cell phone…
Favorite INBOX Messages:
(from Jeff): “men do everything for sex hair cuts & working out to look good enough for sex if it wasn’t for sex men would still be in a cave somewhere jerking off”
(from Matt): “Put $20 on [...]
