Currently.

Loving:  The past week.  Our awesome friend Ariana from Houston was in town and we had so much fun.  And then our nephew got here from San Antonio on Thursday and we get to have him till tomorrow.  We have a tiny place but when it's full of our family, it's so fun and special.  I really love seeing our sons with their cousin.  So precious.  Everyone we love is so far away.  Damn you Texas!    

Thinking About:  Too many things.  My mind is on go.  Deadlines.  Thrifting.  Antique Flea Markets.  Estate Sales.   

Anticipating:  One of my current projects - an unconference.  I am so excited about it and just waiting on my first choice for a venue to sign on.  Then I have to work on sponsors...  

Listening To:  To the fan in our room, the tv in the living room and my Husband talking with me...

Eating:  Out of town guests have to have In N Out so this week I've had the luxury of having it three times this week.  I'm not complaining, it's just that this is the most I've ever had it in seven days.  I am far from being sick of it too.  Yum!  

Wishing:  Money grew on trees.

Weekend Roundup

I've had an adventurous week... and tomorrow my girl Ariana from Houston will be in town till Friday so the fun continues!  We'll be hitting Disneyland, OC Fair and going on tours of the El Pato factory and Homeboy Industries (& having lunch at Homegirl Cafe).  I am so excited because she's the only girlfriend I have that hasn't flaked on me for the past 3 years.  We enjoy her company!

Ready for some exciting news?!  I'm planning a small UNconference in November with some kickass speakers - I can't wait to share the details but waiting till I secure the venue.    

Here's some sites I enjoyed this weekend: 
Desboobs of The Boobs fame launched her Mommy blog last week and it's fantastic - You'll love it Moms Of Badassery.

This is a great read - Questions My 5-Year-Old Sons Ask After Watching the Greatest Rap Videos of All Time

Adorable Spanish Alphabet Printable - FREE!

I use Passionfruit to run my ads, it's amazing and now there is a blog directory!

I don't listen to Murs but this is pretty awesome.  Loving the Hip Hop Community lately Rapper Murs Supports Gay Rights, Kisses A Man In "Animal Style" video
