A not so exciting update....

Geez I lead such a boring life. Not much has happened since Halloween. Addison and I were in Arizona for a week during Thanksgiving then we stayed here with Rich's family for Christmas and New Years. Me, the biggest loser actually went out on New Years Eve. Some plans fell through for my sister in law so she offered me her tickets to The Improv to see David Alan Grier. Personally I thought the two comics leading up to him were much funnier than he was. We were right up on the stage so we had a total blast (I took my friend Denise from work as my date).

Hmmm, my latest obsession is buying fabric, and clothes, and shoes, and purses. The fabric thing is working out well. I've been sewing up a storm in my free time. My focus has been on little pants for babies, bibs and I've made a few shopping cart covers. I just love all the designer fabrics out there, but they are pretty expensive....good thing I don't have bills right now.

Rich is scheduled to return mid-March...not sure if he'll go back to MD or come straight to Cali. I guess that will depend on the job situation. It's hard for him to really interview for jobs being on the other side of earth, but he's doing what he can over the phone and via the internet. With any luck we'll be able to afford a cardboard box underneath the 55/405 freeway interchange! I love the outlandishly overpriced homes in California....but I guess I shouldn't complain since I wouldn't want to live anywhere but Cali. I swear Orange County is like crack...once you live here no other place can come close to touching it and I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Maybe I'm just glad to be anywhere but SJ. Small towns are definitely not my thing.

Well, it's close to five and I have accomplished absolutely nothing at work today....except ordering fabric online (do they have a 12-step for shopaholics?). ;)
