What's she up to now?

Okay, I know I promised to write more but I really don't have an excuse other than just laziness! I have been quite busy and I will try to fill it all in in one blog!

Lets see: I saw Champagne Sunday at Seabee Days (it is for non military people to see what the seabees really do.) Really interesting. I haven't been on a military base in years. The following weekend we saw them at Borders (which is really great cuz you can hear the words!) The next day we went to see them at Margarita Villa in the Ventura Harbor. It was a beautiful day and we had a blast. I am so excited for the new album. It has some fabulous songs on it. I know I am gonna be loving this album more than the last one.

I celebrated my 15 year wedding anniversary on July 9th. We went out for dinner but really waited until the 11th to celebrate. We went and saw the movie "Ready? OK!" at Outfest in West Hollywood. OMG I absolutely LOVED this film! The movie is very sweet with wonderful performances by the entire cast. I was lucky enough to meet 2 of its stars who were very gracious with their time and were truly nice people. Yes, folks it was Michael Emerson and Carrie Preston! No, I did not pull out the camera and go all fanatical on them. I do have some restraint! LOL Yes, I know, I have very little restraint! I just wanted a nice conversation, which created a very special and lasting memory. What an anniversary gift! We headed off to Bobs Big Boy for dinner! I went again to see the film on the 19th, taking my friend/boss Amy and her friend Sara. We went to Andres for a pre birthday lunch for me. They enjoyed the film as well. I cant say enough about this film. If you ever have the chance to see it do so. You wont be disappointed. The film was shot in 18 days around San Diego. Two thumbs up !! It makes my heart smile to think about it!

The house is once again full of cat energy. I adopted two kittens, a brother and sister. They are from 2 different litters. The female is Emerson or Emmy for short! I call her Emmy as the Emmy Nominees were announced and Michael Emerson has been nominated for Best Supporting Actor (And he should WIN!) She is 13 weeks old and before they could get the mother cat spayed she got pregnant with another litter. The male is Benjamin, yes named after the Lost character. He has the dazed and confused look that one might have if stranded on an island! He also has no fear and struts up to the older cats and the dog with not one ounce of trepidation. I then realized that the cats are black or black and white. I found a grey tabby who purrs like there is no tomorrow. He joined the fleet a week ago. His name is Henry. I have forgotten what it is like to have kittens again. They climb your leg, not caring that you are wearing shorts! Henry likes to nuzzle next to my neck, not good with a tank top on! Not forgetting to mention they like shiny things like oh, earrings, necklaces and bracelets. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I got Murray's remains back and he sits next to Max in the living room. I had Emmy spayed on Wednesday. She has adopted Brendan, Henry likes my lap at the computer and Ben likes everybody, but really likes Sam the dog. This tiny little kitten with the lanky legged dog! Go figure.

So there ya go! That is about it. I head to the Ventura County Fair on Wednesday. I will spend my birthday as a "Dirt Track Date" Will fill you in on that later. Off to cause more mayhem and mischief .....
