Last night I had the pleasure of going to Cirque's new show with James. He was oh so nice and took me for my bday :) We had good times as always. Always lots of good stuff to talk about and always end up getting my belly full (thats hard to do these days!)

I am one tired Tiger today though.....midnight is WAY past my bedtime.

This is what the Seattle Times had to say this morning.....

"Cirque's first offering to be tailored specifically for the super-size-arena market has all the techno-wizardry and seamless packaging one expects from this operation. But somehow it boils down to roughly 90 minutes of bombastic sensory overkill.

Yes, there are some glorious mixed-media visual effects here, achieved via state-of-the-art amalgams of film and live video playing on giant, IMAX-on-steroids screens."

That pretty much sums it up! It was really cool....just not really what you would expect from a Cirque show. The technollogy was brilliant, it just left me thinking that I had just left a theater production at the 5th avenue or something. But none the less, it was a GREAT night and very much appreciated!

Well, I know I have not been on here FOREVER! It really was my goal when I started this bad boy that I was going to blog at least twice a week (that is what I promised James at least!). What can I say....sometimes life just gets in 'the way'!

I have been busy moving the last few weeks and that has preoccupied most of my time. I tell you, you never realize how much crap you have until you have to pack it up in boxes and move it from place to place. Thank god I got smart this move though and hired movers! Honestly, it ws the BEST 500 bucks I have ever spent! So worth every last cent!

So I am all moved and have officially moved into the unpacking faze of my journey! So much LESS stress involved than packing. It can totally be done at my leisure.

I moved out to North Bend to be closer to the family. This will be very important once baby comes.....since I dont know the FIRST THING about babies! I am renting a house and it is really cute. I one bedroom with a den (babies room) and it is on about an acre right on the river. It is so nice to wake up to the sound of people mowing and 'normal' noise reather than the smell of curry! This could be the best move for me so far :)

Looking forward to finishing though......I will post pictures when I get all moved in.

Thanks to all!

I really thought that my birthday was going to suck this year! Lets face it.....I am knocked up, I was moving, and everyone I knew was gone! Not really in the cards for a good time.

Surprisingly enough it was pretty good!

Thanks to all my great friends and family.....
Thanks to Liz and family for the pretty flowers, balloon, and baby stuff. Thanks also for stopping by and helping to keep my sane during my move :)
Thanks to PP for the un smelly stuff and for being my biatch! Thanks for trying to stop by.
Thanks to JLo and G$ for the fun wine glasses and cupcakes.
Thanks to my work friends for the pedicure and lunch!
Thanks to my family for dinner and presents. I love you guys!
And last but not least thanks James for the wonderful Cirque experience, so kind......good times like always :) I will blog about that seperately!

Turned out to be a great b-day......maybe this year wont be so bad after all :)

My daughter has a penis!!!

So its official....my taco is officially a Hot Dog!!!

I was so sure that I was having a girl :) All my dreams were of girls, but low and behold there was most definetally a penis there!

Its funny because I was really excited about having a little girl....but now I am so fricken excited to have a little boy! I really cant wait. It is so nice to be able to actually call it a he or a him now rather than it, squid, tomato, or fetus (thanks James). I am thinking about the name Aiden Dean......I have always loved Aiden and Dean is a family name.

How exciting!

Hello world here I am!

Well, after weeks of poking and prodding by my lovely friend James (mostly poking) I have finally decided to join this crazy world of blogging.

James is a crazy bitch. I love him though. I think that the two of us may have been separated at birth. Currently he is going through Lizard withdrawls because we used to be known for hitting up a happy hour or two....that was before the accident. And by accident I mean, before I got knocked up!

I like using the phrase knocked up.....it kind of makes me giggle. Make no mistake though....it is only ok for me to use the phrase knocked up! lol

So, that's right. As scary as it may be The Lizard is going to be a mommie. I will probably spend most of my time and energy on here writing about my little taco (thats what we call it these days) and the adventures that go along with that!

With that.....peace out bitches for now (James also told me that I need to swear as often as possible on here)
