1. Ira Glass live at the Pantageous. If you don't catch his show on NPR/WBEZ (chicago), the podcast is worth the subscription (ie it's free!). www.thisamericanlife.com. I was inspired and moved by Ira's love for his craft - telling poignant stories. He is what good radio is all about.
2. Hope turned 10. I still can't believe it. But she did. I love that kid.
3. Elton John and Billy Joel. Three and a half hours of the biggest blast from the past. Amazing. Dinner at Ruth's Chris beforehand was amazing as well.
4. Avatar in Imax 3D. I am seriously NOT an action/adventure girl. I'm all about a chick flick, a nice latte and a foofy drink. My husband surprised our daughter and I with tickets to see Avatar on Valentine's Day. It was...amazing. Creative genius. GO. SEE. IT.
5. Surprise!!! Lee's (fill in the number) birthday is the day before Valentine's Day. I managed to pull off a small surprise party for him with a little trip to Muckleshoot for the adults. It was a fun night and I think, he enjoyed himself as well! :-)
6. Climbing Mt. Peak. Wendy has been hauling my tuckus up that steep mountain. Ten pounds are gone so far - here's to more mountain climbing!!!
Hipster Ira Glass plays show snippets, shares the elements of a good story and the craft to making people want to listen.Lee and I on his birthday. February 13th. This is the...19th birthday I have celebrated with this man. Typing that number freaks me out a bit. We've been together a very long time!One of my most favorite people. Ever. Shannon. I adore her.Lee and Danny (shannon's hubby) posing as we wait for our car at Muckleshoot.Lee's birthday cake a'la Wendy. A 1970 Chevelle. His dream car. :)
Wendy and I after my first 2010 venture up Mt. Peak. I did a little dance and everything.
Happy February, interenets.
