I know I've neglected all of you wonderful readers (all three of you) but there are time when I just can't find the time to blog. Things get busy and blogging lands in the last row of seats in the SUV of life.

Alright! Enough! Stop giving me those dirty looks! I'll tell you the truth.

My name's Kristi and I'm a MySpace-a-holic.

There are these new applications (read "games") that have been great to play. You have to do a lot of different things including seeking out strangers to be your friend on MySpace. I'm not sure how many pedophiles are now deeply entrenched into the MySpace pages of minors but I'm sure it's a lot. The odds are that I have one too.

Before you start thinking that MySpace was the only thing I did this weekend, I did do other things. I had a pig roast to go to Saturday night without my husband. I did not, however have any of the actual pig. I walked up to the cook/host to say hello just as he was cleaning the meat off of the skull! YUCK! It's going to take a lot more than that to turn me permanently vegetarian but it did the trick for the evening! Before the eating began, there was a big storm followed by a rainbow.



When I got home that evening, my husband and I decided to do some Karaoke at the Stonewall bar.



It's a hole-in-the-wall by the tracks. Not the best bar in town but the beer is cheap and cold and the service is fast. We were only there a few minutes before we found out that the Obama Boys were in the house! The Obama Boys are the two guys that are heading up the Obama Office here in Winchester. It the first time EVER that a Presidential Candidate has opened an office here. It's all pretty exciting.

Here's Jason.



And here's me and Brian.



My husband wouldn't let me take his picture.

Anyway, we ALL sang. Some of us did better than others. We were invited back many times during the evening despite my husband's singing. I was invited to come back for the next Karaoke contest. The owner even said I should go on American Idol. That was a double compliment for me. First, that he thought I could sing well enough to do Idol and second, that he thought I was young enough to do Idol. That was nice. We didn't get home until 2am.

Since we didn't get home until 2am, you can guess that we were feeling REALLY horrible Sunday. Poor Mike had to go to Rockville. I got to stay home and DO MYSPACE!!

How was your weekend?

Everybody's Working For the Weekend!

Ain't no doubt in my mind! This week sucked the big egg. Having the Fourth of July smack dab in the middle of the work week was a horrible thing (especially for those of us who weren't smart enough to take vacation). Monday was slow and painful because that's the way Monday's are for me. Tuesday was also slow because all I could think about was going home early (which didn't happen) and I didn't have a lot to do because most people took the week off (I really need to start paying attention to the calendar). Thursday was bad because of the slight hangover and the fact that I kept thinking it was Monday (two Mondays in one week, YUCK). Today is the best day of the week because, well, it's always the best. I haven't had much to do this week which is a bad thing when all you want to do is go home.

I did work on one neat project this week. Actually, it was just yesterday and today. A mobile dog groomer came in and needed me to do her logo, quick. She had been trying, for the past three weeks, to use another designer in town but had no luck. She came in with her idea and a font she liked and I came up with this.



I think it's just too cute for words! She really likes it as well. Other than that, nothing much going on at work.

Lots of things going on this weekend here in the old burg. First Friday, Poker, and the Blues House all just outside our door! First Friday brings a lot of people downtown to the galleries and shops to hear live music and drink free wine. There are other things to do as well but that's what I do, listen to music and drink! Poker is something we do every Saturday but we might not because of the Blues House. The Blues House a small street festival that we will be able to see and hear from our living room. The temptation to do that instead of poker is going to be great. I just don't know which is going to win. I'll let you know!

What are your plans for the weekend? Will I be jealous?
