Ghetto Socialites

Ok, what had happened was....LOL. Really - it feels so good for folks to be like "Um where's the blog?" LOL So here I am. I was just really busy. Every blue moon I just can't fit it in. But I'm here now.

Sooo where do I begin?! we have been the social butterflies. 
Friday evening we went to CAUNS Holiday party and had a really good time.  They had the entire aquarium and Wolf Gang Puck catered.  How classy!  There had to be about 750 people there and 746 of them knew CAUN.  I spent soo much time saying Hello Nice to meet you enjoy your evening Happy Holiday, yes he's a wonderful man, he takes good care of us also, lol lol  And try to keep steady cause I was drinking like a fish, lol lol lol  Good time!  It fits me quite well that I tend to pick men who require celebrity whether real or perceived, lol Pesonally this picture doesn't do us any justice - I am looking slightly linebackish dressed as a drag queenish, lol lol Mini-me wouldn't get up off the couch - lazy ass.
 
Saturday we went to a Holiday Seafood Party - which is a cool concept.  It was hosted by friends and wrapped around the Falcons game since we watched in the comfort of their theatre room. CAUN had a good time,lol and she had hired a guy from her job to bartend so I was doing more drinking, lol  It was nice to see everyone and just chill out. All that New Orleans flava in the food, lol I know there were over 26 dishes there and there was nothing store bought. Everyone cooked. I mean BBQ Shrimp, Dungeness Crab Legs, other pasta dishes, shrimp scampi, gumbo - just oo la la. So by the time we got home from this function - I was on about 15 drinks between the two events. Buzz real NICEEEEEE!!!
 
Sunday we went to see Pursuit of Happyness. Good movie. I already see I should have read the book. That way I could have gotten the layers that I needed. They just couldn't dig as deep as I would have liked to I still wanna know what happened to the wife. And like all those nooks and crannies that a book can give you. I still might read the book. Cause now I'm curious.
Love the "Look into the sun picutures" Atlantic Station is sooo nice. I really enjoy down there and CAUN and I are seriously considering moving down there. It's a community that they are supposedly fashioning after New York Urban Dwelling. The concept of living in the city with a surburban atmosphere is there but that which is NY will never be duplicated. I mean where the hell was the Bodego just sitting in the middle of everything, lol It's expensive but we're urbanites and maybe we just want because our kids are older a swanky condo in the city you know.

Also on Sunday I met up with my bridesmaid and we picked her out a dress. I'm glad that is taken care of. I actually found something I was looking for to place in my gift bags as well - so it was a good wedding weekend as far as I'm concerned. I took my Ebay fantastic dress to get it hemmed and of course it cost more than the actual dress, but I still came out like a fat rat. In between all of that, I did some things around the house, finished up school (ON BREAK UNTIL JANUARY 2ND!) and made Stuffed Shells, lol lol Dont' let anyone tell you that a woman's job is a full time job, lol


Monday was my bridal shower. OK so that was a NICE shower!!! Aww Man! They made playing cards with us on them!! I get to keep them as well. There were chocolate coins and little playing cards. So nice!! The spread was nice too and only one meat dish. They made sure I could eat, lol lol












So I got XXX off my registry (thebigday.com) and an American Express Card and an a Target Card and cash!!!!
And they bought CAUN 6 POUNDS of Fruit Cocktail cause they know he eats that stuff by the TON!!! LOL LOL LOL No lie I spend about $20 at the grocery on that stuff every two weeks. So all in all THIS HAS BEEN A FABULOUS FOUR DAYS!!

Tomorrow is Potluck at the office and then we are hitting the road to go to Philadelphia and New York City. I'll speak on that a bit more Thursday. I hope you all had a fabulous weekend as well!
