It’s That Time of Year Again

Playboy Jazz Festival has come and gone once again.  My friends and I kind of made it an annual thing since 2015, though I seriously debated about skipping it this year.  The ambience is always so much fun, however, thus I decided to just go as usual.  Six of us attended together on Saturday, then … Continue reading »

Never Get Tired of NoLa

My most recent trip to New Orleans was mainly for Satchmo Summerfest and White Linen Night.  My 6:00 a.m. flight that Wednesday morning from San Francisco to Houston was not off to a good start.  I was, as usual, sitting in a window seat half asleep.  My stomach began cramping which led me to the … Continue reading »

First Impression of Siem Reap

Believe it or not, after all of your patient waiting, I’m finally going to fill you in on Cambodia.  My flight to Siem Reap from Denpasar via Air Asia required a layover in Kuala Lumpur.  Though it was very tempting to buy an overpriced purse from Barbara Riehl at one of the shops, I parked myself … Continue reading »

Songs from the Islands (Kind of)

Over Labor Day weekend, my friend, D., and I had the chance to see not one, but TWO Poly concerts.  Of course, we had to pay twice, too, but we didn’t mind! Friday night started out with Maoli, my favorite Jawaiian-type band out of Maui.  Both D. and I dressed very casual that night.  The … Continue reading »

I Want to Go Home

This past weekend was spent in L.A., not for any particular reason, but because I’m “homesick.”  The trip didn’t start off all that well.  My 8:00 a.m. flight on Virgin America was delayed until 9:15 a.m., though we weren’t actually airborne until about 9:45 a.m.  A friend of mine had wanted to pick me up … Continue reading »

Down Time

I’m being facetious; not really going to be much “down time” this month.  It seemed as though it were going to be a quieter, slow month, but apparently not. Of the two attorneys that I support, the female one recently announced that she’s quitting to go work for a start-up that’s been hatched by one … Continue reading »

Kiss Me, I’m Irish!

Saturday morning I had a reservation at Red Gravy for breakfast.  This restaurant is owned by an East Coast Italian woman, the red gravy refers to marinara sauce and it’s located just across Canal Street in the Central Business District.  On Yelp and Tripadvisor, there have been numerous complaints about the service, rudeness and the owner, … Continue reading »

Do You Know What It Means…

to miss New Orleans?  I certainly do!  That must be why I’ve been there about 15 times.  My most recent trip began a week ago.  It started with a 7:20 p.m. flight from SFO to IAH.  Whenever one uses air miles for virtually free tickets (this only cost me $10 in taxes), the airlines tend to … Continue reading »

A Few Days in Monterey

Our Company off-site was in Monterey, California on Thursday and Friday.  Since the presentations began promptly at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday and since 4 of us were driving down together, that required me to get up by 5:30 a.m.!  I showered, packed and rolled my overnight bag to the car rental place to meet up … Continue reading »

Whips & Chips & Dips & Chains

Buzzfeed has this article entitled “50 Movies That Are Sexier Than ‘Fifty Shades of Grey.’”  First of all, what’s all the hype over “Fifty Shades of Grey?”  I read the book, but haven’t bothered to see the movie yet.  Why are people always so fascinated by b&d or s&m type of things?  Let’s just say I’ve … Continue reading »
