We are at the final week of Tunes For Tuesday ’90’s Edition! Believe it or not, there was some great music in the 1990’s and because September only has 4 weeks, I have made it a priority to showcase more great 90’s music in the future (even if it isn’t the 9th month of the year). Today’s band, The Charlatans UK was part of the New Order, Happy Mondays, Stone Roses alternative/psychedelic/dance sound of the late 80’s/early 90’s. […]
We All Need The Human Touch – A GNO With Rick Springfield
As you can tell from my post on Friday, I’ve been a little overwhelmed lately. I took a time out and it was good. I was lucky enough to end a crap week with a much needed and long-time planned Girls Night Out with some fabulous chicks and 80’s heartthrob and rock star, Rick Springfield!
Few things can make a bad week better than a night out with your oldest friend on the planet (Laurie) and one of your newest (and super fun) friends (Josie)! It really became a GNO when Josie’s friends Julie, Denise, Claudia and Leticia joined us. Many of these ladies had seen Rick live before and let us know that were really in for a treat…and they were absolutely right.
Time has been really good to Rick Springfield – the man is 64 years old and can rock the house HARD! He also looks damned good doing it too. Wanna see Rick shirtless? […]
I Needed A Time Out

10 Tips To Conquer The Next Lululemon Warehouse Sale
If you are a fitness enthusiast, you know the Lululemon brand – it’s high end, luxurious, fashionable and expensive. Personally, I’ve only ever bought a skidless yoga mat cover and a few headbands from Lulu because I’m so incredibly frugal when it comes to buying things for myself. However, Jay and Wild Boy bought me a Lulu outfit for Mother’s Day and got me hooked. When I heard that Lululemon was having one of their Warehouse Sales (aka the #SoulCalCelebration Sale) in LA Convention Center, I couldn’t wait. Well, I went this past Friday and all I can say is:
I came
I saw
I conquered
and if by conquering you mean I waited in line for 4 hours, then yes, I most certainly did conquer. […]
