Lovin' the wiggle...

So how did I spend my first married Thanksgiving?? With my in-laws. Woo hoo !! Actually, it's tradition to go see them..... we've done it for the past 7 years, but it was exciting to actually do it as an official Palma !! Even though I'm still not legally a Palma ... it's been about 4 months and I need to get all my stuff together to change my name! My mother-in-law suggested I keep it the way it is.... if I was successful with it I wouldn't be against the idea..... but for the sake of tradition I'm looking forward to taking my husbands name!! So we left a little late on Wednesday.... it was still traffic time. We stopped for dinner together at Roda Viva, a little Brazilian Steak house in Temecula to kill some time. The food there was a little disappointing this time... it wasn't as awesome as we were used to... but it was good to hang out in the little mall and spend some quality date time with my hubby! After that we went on an excursion to drop off an e

It's payday, it's Friday, it's a half day.... I'm about to take some much needed holiday-time off next week. I should be ecstatic right?? Wrong.... My bank account has been phised into and my bank accounts are frozen, my mother's car has now officially kicked the bucket, and I can't focus on work enough to get things done!!! Ahhhhhhhhhh !!! Why me???? I must have done something terrible wrong recently to invite all this bad mojo my way. So now I need to work longer just to accomplish what is needed to be accomplished. My mother has my vehicle at the moment so I will require rides everywhere, and I have to spend hours at the banks trying to get my accounts and money back!!! this bites.

The funkies are best described as my very own personal blues... Like I said earlier I live a pretty sweet life. Great love, great family, great friends.... but I start to focus on all the imperfections I see in me. Why? I have no idea. They're so common my husband can now recognize them when they happen. It's pretty normal for me once every few months.... they last a few days, and then I'm done. Sometimes I'll pop in some real sad songs just for good measure... I'm feeling "Don't Explain" by Billie Holiday... yup, it's a good one. Maybe I could use more exercise ? *sigh.

So I haven't trained myself to write on my page daily.... as a matter of fact, there are few things that I can't actually remember to do on a daily! Probably why I'm really terrible at birth control..... oh I go off on tangents from time to time as well. I went to Taco Tuesday at Fred's Mexican Cafe in old town last night with some buddies last. The ever so awesome Britta, her buddy Amy, Victor, a friend of mine Manny, and his friend all joined us! (My husband is not a Taco Tuesday kinda guy.... at least my kind... he'd rather be mellow than as loud and rowdy as I can be.... go figure). So we arrive, eat, drink, and were very merry by the night's end. From how nice it was to actually have the manager be so attentive, because he knows Victor and friends, to the silly conversations we always end up having.... it's never a dull day in our crowd!!! Rock on!
