It's been 2 months. I know...I know. I've been busy I suppose (and a little unmotivated). I've been watching a lot of new tv shows too (surprise, surprise) Here is a recap in pictures of whats been going on the past couple months:
Christmas
Meghan's 26th Bday at the Alehouse
New Years Eve!
Hanging out in Milwaukee with M & T
We got together on Saturday night at the new California Pizza Kitchen at Bayshore. We waited a LONG time, but that was alright...we were there more for the company than the food. Don't get me wrong though, I was definitely excited that Milwaukee finally had a CPK. I had been there in other cities and was excited that Milwaukee was finally getting "big city" with all these chains. Although I have to say, my food was not how I remembered it to be - I got a shrimp scampi pizza...too onion-y for my taste. I would've liked to taste the shrimp. I doubt I will run back there again...I will however run back to the mall at Bayshore. It was spectacular! It was clean and new with music piped in on the streets and so festive with all the Christmas decorations. I felt like I was in a different city for most of the night - as if I was on vacation. It was great, but unfortch I did not get to shop much...so I will be back soon. Don't worry, Bayshore, I will be back.

The day is here. I waited months and months for it to come. I went to bed last night giddy like it was Christmas Eve. I got up EARLY (anyone who knows me, knows this is unheard of) and was out the door a half hour earlier than I usually am. I went to Target right as it opened (BEFORE work), made my way to the back of the store and saw it in all its glory....
I listened to it on repeat all day at work. So far, I really like Love Stoned. Everyone should probably download it.
He is amazing.
(The last episode of Big Brother is on tonight, The first episode of Dancing with the Stars is on tonight AND the second season of The Office also came out today - which I purchased along with JT...9/12/06 has been a great day)
...and when I say lovely, I mean miserable. I cannot think of a worse day to compete in an Ironman actually. It was in the fifties and raining all day. Eventhough the weather was crappy, I still really wanted to see it all go down. So Jon and I headed down at around 7pm to see the bulk of the athletes cross the finish. My favorite was when people would do the last block of the race holding the hand of someone that was obviously important to them...son, daughter, friend, spouse, etc. It was inspiring...makes you want to be an Ironman.

Last night one of my favorite episodes of Sex and the City aired, "A Woman's Right To Shoes". I actually don't know if it is my favorite because of its content, but more because of the beautiful shoes featured on the show. The episode has Carrie and Stanford go to a party where they are forced to take off their shoes upon entering. Carrie is beside herself because she is wearing "an outfit", but reluctantly did so, only to find them gone when she was on her way out the door. The shoe I am referring to is the Sedaraby silver Manolo Blahnik heels. Ever since I saw this episode, I have wanted these shoes so bad. Unfortch, they go for about $800 on ebay. I told Jon that the minute I win the lottery, I am buying these heels.
In other shoe news, check out the cute new Mini Uggs...
I read on the home page of the Madison Isthmus that "If you don’t need it, State Street has it. And if State Street doesn’t want it any more, it puts it out on a table during Maxwell Street Days." That could not be more true. I look forward to this weekend all year and this year did not disappoint. Dizzy and Julie came in for the day...so the two of them, Jon and I headed out in the swealtering heat, determined to find some bargains. And bargains we got at the famous sidewalk sale. The most notable were a pair of Ugg loafers for $30 at Bop, and a bag full of merchandise from Urban Outfitters (including 6 scarves and 4 shirts) for $13.
Another great part of this weekend is watching the Paddle and Portage. It is a fun race that includes teams of 2 doing a 1.5 mile paddle, a 1.5 mile portage, and another 1.5 mile paddle. The portage goes through downtown and around the square. It is amazing to see so many people running through the streets carrying canoes. This along with the weekly Farmer's Market makes it a busy, fun day to be in downtown Madison.
No pics. I know, I suck. However, here are 2 pics from LAST year...
