Back in Action

OK PARTY PEOPLE --- I'M BACK!

It's been a long time since I've blogged and I'm not going to pretend that I had nothing to blog about. I've done a lot in the past two months, so much that I'm not sure I can cover all the bases. Well, I'll give it a shot. Since my last blog post....
  • Ali and I hosted a Christmas Party.. if you haven't heard what happened on that fateful night, please call me. We need to catch up.
  • I went to California for the first time to spend Christmas with Gregg's family! It was an amazing 2 weeks filled with wine tasting in Napa, skiing in Tahoe and exploring in a little city called San Francisco. Yaaaaever heard of it??
  • My first assignment of the year was in Irvine, California and it was great. Lots of plastic looking people, it was awesome.
  • I was able to work from home for a week so I've gotten to see a lot of people in Nashville, including my family... I miss everyone so much.
  • Thennnn, my super sweet boyfriend drove up to spend the weekend with me in Nashville and then we drove to his place in Florida and spent a week there. We're officially comfortable with each other. We sat around, drank wine and watched tv all week. But by comfortable, I'm really just referring to the farting. You could point to Gregg and tell him to fart and he could do it on command. Boys are gross.
  • While Gregg is gross, he's also pretty sweeeet. He took me FLYING on Saturday! It was so cool to see him doing what he loves to do.
  • I have had a very active past two months and a great start to the new year. I've traveled, seen a bunch of movies, met new people, caught up with old friends, have eaten some AMAZING food (pictures below) and have checked quite a few things off my bucket list. I have to say that it's going to be hard to beat 2010 as it was one of the best years of my life, but I'm ready for even better. Bring it 2011.
Here's some pictures of some of the stuff I've been up to in the past two months (warning: mainly pictures of food). No clue where I actually was when I ordered most of this food, I just know it was amaze-balls. On an unrelated note, I need to lose weight.

 Ali and I at our Christmas Party. Third year in a row in those spandex pants. Got our $12 worth for sure!
 In-N-Out Burger. Those fries are done animal style. Pretty gross looking now that I'm taking a second look.
 Hmm? A yummy looking salad that I deemed picture worthy at the time. I'm sure I took a bite first and then rearranged it so it looked pretty.
 The sushi in Irvine was amazing! I was there with a coworker and we literally ate sushi every night.
I'm on an eggs benny kick. Got this at Mad Donna's in East Nashville. 2 for 1 Mimosas on Saturday and Sunday! Get it.
 Ali's BLT at Mad Donna's. I asked her how it was and she said "Ehh"... well at least it looks good.

Welp, believe it when I say that I MADE THIS!! Gregg was super impressed with my skills. We got fresh Mahi Mahi and baked it up reaaal nice.
 This is Gregg's fried crab. He wasn't sure how to eat it. We had two dinners that night.

TUNA!!! I am on a huge tuna kick these days. This was Tuna Steak from McGruber's in Destin. OKAY, it's called McGuire's.
The beautiful view from when Gregg took me flying!

Well, that's it kiddos. You are my amazing and relentless followers. You have been there from the beginning and you never stopped believing in me. So I am going to vow to keep my blog up to date and keep you in the know from here on out.

 Unless I'm tired or out at a local bar.
