Two Meetups and the Golden Girls of El Chuco (El Paso)

I want to start this weekends blog sending an apology to my subpar layout. I will fix this next weekend. As soon as I figure out what I'm doing!?!

Next is a shout out to a great pair of gals in el Chuco. If your reading this just play the Golden Girls theme in your background and pretend I'm singing it to you. I want to say that I'm here for you, if you need, and to offer some sarcastic remark on the state of the world if you want. Call me, loves you.


Secondly I'd like to thank my neighbor Gosia for not only kicking my ass this past week, but offering her ear for me to bend. I want to know what the neighbors think of all the grunting that goes out in your garage. I still cant believe that you push me enough to burn 600 calories, four times this past week. Your awesome.

So, lets get on with the rest of the week.

Well on Thursday night I went to the Bonefish Cafe http://www.bonefishgrill.com/ in Bothell.

Which is not far from where I work I had a meetup with my wild and crazies. (http://women.meetup.com/467/)

I had a great time talking football, drinking raspberrytinis and eating saucy shrimp. It truly was a happy hour or two. I'm always happy to see old friends and meet new ( I guess that's why they call it meetup). I had never been there before and I really loved those community tables @ the bar. It was a friendly place, with friendly servers and I loved the food and drink. A bit pricey but well worth it. I spent $24 (including tip) on my two drinks and happy hour appetizer, it did fill me up and the drinks where nice and potent. I'm starting to feel like fodors. So I give that place three stars.

Next.

Friday, I did not feel like going out that night( even thought we where invited to the Parlor)and so I stayed home and read the last of my fantastic book I was working on. Yes, I checked it out of the library and it was called

AUTHOR: Pérez-Reverte, Arturo.

TITLE: The queen of the South

CALL NO: FIC PEREZ-REVERTE BARCODE: 2021588211

DUE: 11-19-08 DATE CHECKED OUT: 10-22-08 04:48PM

I highly recommend this book, very entertaining, the author is truly a Spanish poet. I don't know what to think of the heroine, but it was a fantastic tale told fantastically about a Narca and her rise to the top. I know its fiction but the tale is so well told you can hardly believe it not be real.

Saturday I had another meetup http://rubberstamp.meetup.com/419/ this one was my crafting one here's the pictures of what your getting as your Christmas cards this year.

and lastly I want to recommend a movie that I saw last Sunday after I had posted my last blog..

I want to start by saying that I've not seen any of the oceans 11 movies I'm not into brad or george clooney fan but I swear if you want to laugh out of your pants go see

"Burn After Reading".

Smart, Funny and totally not what I expected (Not that I expected anything out of them).
See ya next week.
