It's been awhile....

Yes, I know. It's been awhile. I haven't forgotten about you, my little blog. But life has gotten quite busy with school starting next week. And it hasn't helped that my summer job and my school year job overlap during September, which means me working on campus and East LA. I'm actually excited for classes to start because my jobs will be manageable once again.

And this past week Marco has been sick. The sickest I've ever seen him. He got some type of bacterial infection in his stomach, which has knocked him on his ass big time. But on the positive (or not so positive) side, he lost a total of 9 pounds in less than a week! I'm just glad he's finally eating something other than soup and oatmeal.

I will hopefully have some more exciting news soon and more time to write about it!

Hasta pronto....

Obama 08

Marco and I didn't watch much of the RNC. We did watch Sarah Palin's speech because as Marco said "I need a good laugh!" We DVR'd the speech and watched it later that same night. Wow....it was a feeling of shock, fear, disgust, confusion, anger....it's hard to explain what we were feeling as we heard Palin's arrogant and petty speech.

The next day, Marco did something he had never done in his life. He donated money to a political candidate. Yes, Marco and I have officially donated a whole $25 (all we could afford at this point in time as students on summer break) to Obama's campaign!

Palin really scared us. Can this person really be running to be the VP, 2nd in command of the US? I'm waiting for McCain to hold a press conference and say "Gotcha!"

I can hope....and vote!

Labor Day Fun!!!

A lazy Saturday morning.....

Playing with water on a hot summer day!

Watching UCLA beat Tennessee. Vinnie could not attend, but Marco and I had the "pleasure" of sitting among the loud and drunk undergrads in the student section. Man, did we feel old....

A yummy late night snack at Pinkberry. Sorry Vinnie, none for you! (Don't worry, I had some of Vinnie's snacks on hand so the boy didn't starve)

Nothing like a mid-day nap!
