#44 - Brrr!


Had lunch with my mom today and we were chilly once we stepped back outside after lunch. I just checked the temperature and it's 58 degrees. We had to laugh because even not knowing what the temperature was at the time, we know we have lived in much colder. Take Bismarck North Dakota for example, it is 34 degrees right now - brrr!

#43 - Dinner w/ Good Friends! :)

After TWO weeks of postponing this dinner, we finally made it out with Marissa & Tony! The past two weekends we've tried but Lui had to work - third time was the charm. We had dinner at Ruth's Chris in Irvine followed by dessert at The Winery in Tustin. Before that, we met up at Marissa's and heard all about their engagement story and wedding plans they have so far - she asked her mom to be her MOH because she's her best friend (so sweet!). Very excited for these two - Nov. 12th is the date!

#42 - Pandora

Right now I'd like to give a shout out to Pandora.com. I appreciate the free music and that you can play by genre - with only an occasional, short commercial message here and there and most importantly that it's FREE!! I know you can pay a small fee ($10/year?) to have endless free music but I rarely get to that point where I've used my 30 (?) free hours since I'm in and out of the office. LOVE the Pandora. :)

#41 - FREE HOUSE!

Last year we ran a campaign where we teamed up with the Angels and gave away a house at the end of the baseball season...and we're doing it again this year! Lots of baseball games to go to again this summer, fun! If you're in southern California, be sure to register to win.

#40 - The Zwetows!

I just found out that our good friends, Tony & Marissa got engaged on Valentine's Day!! They were going to tell us today at dinner (which got cancelled because Lui has to work - the storms are coming again!). We always have a great time with Tony and Marissa - we call them "The Zwetows" which is Tony's last name...and now it will be Marissa's, too! Above is a picture of the last time we went down to San Diego together for the weekend, they humored me and took rickshaws from our hotel to Dick's Last Resort after the baseball game. Here's a pic of us in one of my vendor's (NewHomeDirectory.com) suites at Petco Park -

#39 - Just For Fun!

When we run ads on the radio, we get to choose our talent - what an interesting job to do voiceovers for radio/commercials?! Check out this fun website we use to listen voice to samples:

#38 - CW

That's what we use to IM each other at my first job after college (Pacifica Capital) - CW = can't work. There's some days that I literally have to force myself to do my work because I can't just put my head down and crank it out like usual. I talked to Heather Libby today and she concurs, says we've both got a case of the Mondays - no joke! I think it's probably because Lui & Brock (Heather's husband) have the day off work, we'd rather sleep in and be hanging out with them.
