Just Saying...

For all of those people that are not quite ready to see that Jon of Jon and Kate Plus 8 is just as bad if not worse than Kate well here you go...



Explain to me how you can even pretend to care for your kids when you are running around St. Tropez with not your first girlfriend since your wife but now your second. I am just going to put it out there that Jon is a D-Bag and as mean as Kate is, at least she is not a cheater and all around bad example.

My Sister

I just want to say that I love my sister to tears for many reasons... But specifically for the fact that she can turn a totally normal gesture into the funniest story I have ever heard.

And it went a little something like this...

Katie: "So I decided to order Mom and Dad a little something to send to their room for their anniversary."
Me: "Oh yeah, what did you end up sending them?"
Katie: "Well I went with the champagne and chocolate covered strawberries... Not that they drink but still."
Me: "Oh geez"
Katie: " Well Mom might have some, and if not we can drink it on Sat when we see them."
Me: "So how much was all that?"
Katie: "I don't know... (best part ever) I WAS AFRAID TO ASK."

And there you have it.

New Page...

Not sure what I think about this new background, but let me know what you think. I am leaning towards this being too bling but maybe it is perfect.

Vegas Baby...

I am so excited... One month from today Paul and I will be in Vegas and hanging out at The Hotel at Mandalay Bay. Looking forward to sun, fun and a little relaxation.

Anti Climatic

I was so ready for change and then the curve ball... You think that you are ready and prepared till the options are presented and then you realize that you were all talk.

I WAS ready and now I don't know.

Buenos Dias - Nueve Dia

It is our last full day here in Buenos Aires and with that being said we decided to hit up a couple of things that we had not had a chance to look at to this point. First on the list was El Obelisco, a monument representing the 400th Anniversary of the city.

After we got some photos, we walked the Avenida de Nueve and well it was loud, crowded, and everyone was smoking... So we decided that we would head over to Avenida Santa Fe for a little less people and lunch. Once there we decided to head over to the mall, otherwise known as Alto Palermo where we ended up eating at a little cafe. I ordered what I thought was going to be a salmon salad, but I imagined that it would be cooked on a bed of lettuce, but what I got was more like locks on salad with cheese that smelled pretty strong. It was not good, the first time that I can really say that here but still.
Once we got away from lunch we wandered the mall where I picked up a couple of tank tops, that I love and then we hopped the subway home.
It has been a long week and though we should totally be finishing it up with some grandeous night out, we are not. We both feel that we have seen and done all that we wanted to and with still a few things left on the list for next time.
We leave tomorrow...

Buenos Aires - Ocho Dia

I am really enjoying our time here in Buenos Aires, the people are nice and everyone is beautiful and healthy looking, well except that most of them smoke. I guess everyone needs at least one vice. We decided today was going to be a light day and headed over to the Japanese Gardens and then onto La Bombadera, the home of the Boca Juniors team in Buenos Aires.
The Japanese community donated the garden to the city of Buenos Aires and though it is a little smaller than expected, it is truly scenic and wonderfully quiet.












After a lovely and serene walk through the Japanese Gardens we hoofed it to the subway to head over to La Bombadera. This trip was totally for Paul but after seeing how much people love this team and have so much pride associated with them, I fell in love as well.











After a long tour, which was totally great we headed back to the apartment to go back and forth on the "where do you want to eat" convo. Finally we realized that the reason that it took so long to decide is that we were not really hungry and that we did not have the energy to bother with a long drawn out meal.. So we went to McDonald's and then home. I have to say it was the best thing that we could have done... So tired and just wanted a night off.
