Slight delay in posting, but NYE was really fun this year. The past few years I have spent it in San Diego, but this year I spent it with friends from back home. Chanelle took me to The Standard and afterwards we went to Cafe101, got the best veggie soup and saw Ryan Gosling. We died. For Ryan Gosling, not the soup. Actually, for the soup too. I decided that from past experience, The Standard’s pour sucks. In a vodka soda, it’s 90% soda water and 10% vodka. So what do I do? I order vodka on the rocks. The first few sips made me feel like I was breathing fire, but then I got used to it. I’d actually order it more often if it didn’t make me look like such an alcoholic. There’s some pics below. I’ll have more once Chanelle sells me her dvd full of pictures.
Work’s been super demanding and busy, but after this week I think it should mellow out. Saturday we are having our grand opening party of The Martin Bldg. + Flats (my apartment complex). Sanctuary 143 is throwing the party with/for us. We’ll have The Linkery and The Pearl Hotel catering, beer from Stone Brewery, wine, artists and a DJ from groove247.com. It should be fun and I want the party to continue at Nunu’s after 🙂
Oh, and! I’m going to Portland and Seattle in less than two weeks! We got a hotel room at The Jupiter Hotel, which I am so excited about. I have a tour at Portland State University since I am looking into their MBA + program. Then off to Seattle! Even though I just got back from vacation, it’ll be nice to have another mini one.
Now, off to Lani’s birthday dinner at Apertivo. Can’t wait for their grilled veggies and fetuccine alfredo. My two favorites. Oh, and maybe the caprese salad too. Oh, and maybe a meat ball. God I love you Apertivo.

my christmas started a couple of nights ago. i received a package from beijing that had ‘the adventures of milo and otis’ dvd enclosed. i have this slight obsession with animals, so it’s kind of a running joke with all of my friends and family members. not the most traditional christmas present, but i absolutely love it.
we had our company lunch yesterday and we did a gift exchange. i walked away with a gift card to borders..now i just have to figure out which book to go buy. also, my lovely boss gave me a christmas bonus, which i cannot wait to go spend. that was a pretty good way to start off the holiday festivities.
got a half (or a bit more than half) day of work today, then making the drive up to the parents house. thinking about staying up (and not drinking too much) so that i can attend midnight mass at st. peter’s. then tomorrow’s christmas at the parents then off to tahoe! i’m pretty excited, besides the fact that i don’t own warm clothes. i’ll be getting my new digital camera for christmas so i’ll be posting lots of pictures in my future posts 🙂
hope everyone has happy holidays.
love,

If anyone has friends or family coming into town for the holidays, or maybe you just need a quick getaway..consider The Pearl Hotel. For a limited time, The Pearl has room nights for only $79! That is an amazing deal, considering room nights are normally $159-$239! There is one restriction..you have to call me @ 619-235-5616 ext 221 or email me at lacy@lwpgroup.com to reserve the room. This is the only way the rooms can be booked with the special price. So call and email away if you want this fabulous deal! You could even book a room for someone as a Christmas present! 🙂

I guess it’s been a while, but to be honest..not much has changed. Still working away at The LWP Group. It has gotten so busy over the past month or so. Our new project, Community at The Martin Bldg. + Flats has opened and it’s amazing. I absolutely love living there.
I started volunteering a lot more, which is great. Volunteer San Diego is such an awesome organization. You can do anything from beach cleanups, to playing with the animals at the pound, to working at the food bank ,to tutoring, to having coffee with international students working on their conversational skills.
So, the beginning of this week was insanely busy. Between running back and forth between our different properties, working until 630 both Monday and Tuesday..I haven’t had time for myself. So tonight I am going to La Jolla to see Seven Pounds and then tomorrow I am going to this MTV event downtown. It’s about time I relaxed and had some fun.
Hopefully I’ll be updating more regularly…
Love,
Lady
Just read on Mashable: gmail and gtalk finally came out with better emoticons! I’m not big on using emoticons, but every once in a while I’ll throw in a heart, or a smiley face. But they were ugly before. Now they’ll be better when I do decide to use them!! Is it weird that I’m excited over this??
Paddington!!!!
Google’s icon yesterday: Paddington Bear. I died.

I’ve been keeping extremely busy with my new job and just hanging out with friends. Enjoying the benefits of working M-F with the LWP Group. Last weekend I went home for my godmother and brother’s birthday party and on the way up I stopped off in Redondo Beach to see Casey Lamm. I wasn’t going to because I had my dog and Erin with me, but i am really glad I did. I hadn’t seen him in over a year.
I’m excited for the next couple of weeks here. My brother John flies in tonight and we’ll head to my favorite beer spot..Hamilton’s. Then my brother Tim comes home from Iraq tomorrow! I cannot wait. I get so happy thinking about it. We’re all going to meet him at Camp Pendleton, then we’ll go out to dinner and head back to the hotels in Carlsbad. Then Sunday we will surprise Tim and show him his house that we’ve all been working on for the past seven months while he was deployed.
Then next weekend we are having a huge party at our other brother’s house in Simi Valley. And also, I forget when..but I am seeing The Black Kids at The Belly Up. Yay. Here’s some pics from Street Scene and a video from The Black Kids. Enjoy. Until next time..
