Karaoke Anyone??

The night started harmlessly enough with The Foundations' - Build Me Up Buttercup, from there it moved to some Miley Cyrus and Amy Winehouse. The night ended very naughtily with my performance of The Divynils - I Touch Myself. The funny thing was that the song was queued twice, so people got to see my awesome performance two times!

Spazmatics Night

Thursday was the first Thursday in forever that I was able to go out. I NEVER go out on Thursday, because the kids go to school on Friday and I really don't know how much fun I would be if I need to get up early! Anyway, because of a teacher work day (We had six days off because of Ike, I don't know what they are thinking, but that is another post all together) the kids had off Friday and I was finally able to enjoy myself on a Thursday Night.

To celebrate I decided to take my friend up on his offer to take me to see a band called The Spazmatics that plays at Sammy's, but only on Thursday night! The Spazmatics is an 80's cover band...they are amazing. The night was so much fun! I highly recommend them.

Milly's Graduation Party

It was so cold outside! Really, really cold for Houston. I debated going out, but decided that if I would have stayed home I would regret it (specially since the husband had his friends over to play poker and video games). So, I braved the elements and headed out. Phil (@ellis_king) met me for dinner and then we headed to my girl Milly's graduation party. The party was outside (crap!), but I was glad I had taken my Michelin jacket with me thinking that I was going to dispose of it once I got inside and I would look amazing in pictures. I was however hearing open toe shoes (double crap)! By the end of the night my little piggly wigglys were frozen solid. After the party we headed over to Shadow Bar for the after-party. Good times!!

Twitter Update

I did end up heading out for Mother's Night Out. We meet at Buca di Beppo and had a reservation for the kitchen table. Kind of weird to be hearing what is going on in the kitchen and having every single waiter stop by your table and tell you what they are carrying out. Anyway, I did have a good time, I skipped last month, so it was nice to see everyone again. I also took them all a little Christmas gift - a lottery ticket, but only one person won and they only won three dollar! Rip off!! I guess not the fun and exciting surprise I was hoping for.

I Won!!!

I attended the Mom 2.0 Kick-Off Party tonight and I won a Wii Fit!! Not only that, but I also won a free ticket to the conference. Man, it is my lucky day. I never win anything, so it was a nice surprise.

Friday Very Busy Fun Day!!

On Friday I had lunch with my dear friends Sandra and Claudia. I had not see Claudia in ages so it was nice to see her again and just catch up.



High School Reunion Planning MTG #3
And since I had a reunion planning meeting in town I decided just to hang out and wait for the Happy Hour to begin. The reunion committee met at Cadillac Bar, the place that we were thinking of using...we do have to tested out and all!! We did decided that the Cadillac Bar was a perfect fit for our event. I am glad that has been decided.



We had a blast and I think disclosed just a little bit too much, like high school crushes. I just hope it is not brought up ever again ;(

High School Reunion - MTG #2

I attended my second high school reunion planning meeting today. Things are going well, I think we have decided to plan and put together the event ourselves rather than use a planning reunion service. This will mean a lot more work for those involved, but we will have more control of how we want things done. Is that good or bad? don't know yet!

This time for dessert I made Walnut Brownies and took some vanilla ice cream to accompany my chocolate creations. Yummy!!

Huh, once again, I used to be incredibly shy in high school, so it is a little weird to me that I would want to be involved as much as I am, since realistically I AM meeting my classmates for the first time. So far everyone has been super nice, so I hope that things continue as well as they are. If not, I will just have to eat my $50 worth of food at the reunion party!

Lunch

Thanks to Holly (@bloggingholly) and Phil (@ellis_king) for having lunch with me today. We met at Star Pizza and had a fun time catching up, it had been months since I had seen Holly. Thanks Guys!



Thanks guys for making me look short, or maybe I am short?! My face barely makes it into the picture!!

My Girl Lenny is in Town

My girl Lenny made a visit to Houston so we decided to get together and hit the town. We first stopped by the Red Lion Pub and then headed to Pearl Bar. It was a lot of fun, but I had a little too much to drink, oops! Anyway, once in a while is ok, plus Lenny was in town ;)


He was my prom date almost 20 years ago! The whole night I kept calling him "Prom Date". Everyone thought I was kidding. Too funny!

Friday Night Fun

Yippie, I had a great time. We started FNF at Coaches Pub in Midtown. We had drinks and dinner (I think I was the only one eating, I hate when that happens), and then headed to the Tavern on Gray. It was fun, we just hung out and played pool. A nice night.

UH vs. UAB Game

I attended the UH vs. UAB game. My friend Mark invited me to attend the Delta Upsilon tailgating pre-game party. I had not hung out with the guys in ages, but since my horoscope said for me to try new things, I decided to go. I had fun even though the guys kept calling me MA'AM. Yeap, I felt old. On the plus side, I did see one of old-skool brothers; I guy that I hung out with back in the day. It was so much fun to see him again after almost 15 years. I guess I am old!

Saturday Night Fun

On Saturday I attended the Houston Tiara's Happy Hour at Mak Chin's. It was a lot of fun. I so enjoy going out and meeting new people (yeah, that makes me sound like a dork, but it's true).

Anyway, I left my tiara in the car so I ended up bumming off tiaras for the pics.



After the Happy Hour we headed to Shadowbar for my girl Milly's bday party.

Friday Night Fun

Went to Brio for a MNO and the headed to BLVD. Fun, good times.

Busy Friday

I went out to meet some of Houston's Hip Mamas at Davenport and then headed to a friend's birthday party at The Drake. The night was a lot of fun!





Can not wait until next Friday!!

Out and About

Fun night. I meet up with some of my college buddies and we headed to a UH Hispanic Association revival meeting at Open City. It was fun to see some people that I had not see in years. After Open City and dinner we headed to Zeppelin where we enjoyed some good old fashion shaking. Good times.
