Where am i?

It has been a long/short/huh? week. After returning from upstate New York, did some laundry, and headed off to a Cardinal's game at my friends house. A group of us went, so I guess you could call it a "party". I had been home a day, so was able to get some sleep. Cardinals were playing the Falcons - we had a great day. The gathering started at 2, and the amount of food in that place was AMAZING! Here is a group shot after the game where we were all very happy with "our" win (as if we had something to do with it! :)


Needless to say - it was a fun afternoon/night. Ending with Dale (the one sitting in the jersey) grabbing his huge blanket and pillow and falling asleep watching Monsters Inc. Yep - great day.

The following day, I left for Houston. It was a long week of work, but one of my fav sales guys was there (Dizzle) - so all was good. Long week of very little sleep. None of us slept, not sure why seeing we were all in bed by 9:30 every night. You would have thought, by looking at us all, that we were out painting the town red every night we were there. NOPE! In bed - tossing and turning. Show went well, don't care for Houston, but i left content. Got home around 1:30am and was at work the next day. Whoo hoo! Wish I could say I was bright eyed, but that I was not.

Saturday was the next Cardinal's game. This time we met at a dive bar and grill, for most of us were leaving for New Orleans (NOLA) the next morning. Cardinal's were playing the Panther's. Poor Panther's. Game started out well for them...for the first two minutes. After that, the Card's kicked a little tushy! Oh yea baby! Cards are now one win away from the Super Bowl! :) Sad to say, I was a poor sport and was home in bed watching the second half of the game. The no sleep in Houston and having to leave the next morning...yea, i needed to get some rest.

Sunday morning - Anita was at my place at 7:15 ready to head off to NOLA. We did the whole travel bit. Got there, hit the casino (my boss and I ate while the rest gambled. Why gamble away money when you can buy food with it? i just don't get it!) After an hour of that, it was time to get dressed to meet with our clients. The gathering in NOLA with our clients went well. We had rented a balcony off Bourbon St - threw some beads, had a hurricane (or two...but i was using the toddler size cup, not the big girl cup!) and did some client talk! After that, we hit a club two doors down as a group to say "see you soon!" and headed off to bed.



It was a great night! I had given my hotel room to Dizzle, who decided to come last minute, and I shared a room with Anita. Due to the last minute changes, we had a king size bed. Did we care? nope...we wanted sleep! The next morning, i roll over and ask for breakfast. She was looking through the breakfast options and saw "Breakfast for two" - I decided that was what I wanted! Anita refused to order, and she was wondering why i was mad. HELLO. But we still had our breakfast in bed. Anita with her eggs and bacon (hoping the grease would cure her hangover) and me with my waffles laughing at her. For I didn't drink as much as she did, and i ate...she didn't eat.

Besides the shower that morning, everything was done around that bed. Breakfast was in bed. We did our make-up in bed. We didn't leave that bed until we had to, even though we had plenty of sleep, we both could have slept longer.

Today Anita and I were both at work at 7 to workout to The Biggest Loser workout dvd. After work, we both hit the grocery store and bought as many veggies and fruit we think we can consume this week. Work has the biggest loser competition going and we want to show off how good we will look. (Since we are in Phoenix and our Corp. Office is in Dallas - they don't see us much!) Wish us luck. :)

Well I am off to bed. Gotta be up early to work out. :(

Cheers!
