Narrative to come...

During-How Fun is This?

I did some research before I left for Texas and discovered that I'd be driving right by the exit where Julia, a.k.a. Miz. Juney, works. So I programed my garmin as soon as I got into the rental car and off I went. Right after I made my first stop, What-A-Burger (dur), I surprised her. She had just stepped out of the store for some fresh air and voila! I'd been reading about the store and Julia had actually taken me to the first Magpie's over 25 years ago and now she's working at their newest location-Cypress.

I was raised right and knew to be polite and buy some great stuff while I was there as a compliment to all. It's also quite patriotic; helping the economy. What a great place and so fun to get a short visit with a wonderful bff.

What is a visit without some goofiness? We were mimicking the woman in the picture behind us. Guess whose idea that was? Check Miz Juney's blog.

Before

I took these photos before I left for Texas and I've been needing to do some major rearranging for a while. Sooooo, as soon as I have a couple of minutes I'm going to rehab my look. Just wanted to show these before then. There's still a lot to do in the meantime...coming up.

A.W.O.L.

Not just here-everywhere. I've just not been around. I had a huge list of things I vowed that I would do over the summer before I would make any art or play with my blog. Of course, sitting on facebook was acceptable. I can't help it. I have found and reconnected with about 400 friends from my past. I will forever be indebted to facebook for this. I don't care if they start charging. I don't care. I am so happy to know where all of these beautiful people are. I have lived away from my hometown most of my adult life and I miss it and all the fabulous folks I grew up with there. And now I am, once again, going back to reconnect in person. Ugh, it's been since June. Next weekend is a big one for Bryan/College Station, Texas. Texas Reds. I don't know what it is and don't care. It is bringing people from all over together for the first time in, in some cases, over 40 years. Just as I did in June, I have gotten over the fact that I'm not going to loose 30 pounds by next week.

The only vanity thing I'm doing is bleaching my teeth; something I've been wanting to do for a very long time and something I'd wished I had done before June. It's an easy fix for aging. I don't feel so bad about it; after all, I'm not getting lipo like I need to. It's about seeing important people in whatever form I am. You know I will be posting and blogging away when I return-gotta show off all the love. Until then...Yippie.
