2010 wasn't so bad

2010 was a rough year and with it almost gone, I start looking forward and moving on. But one can't help but look back, just the same:

February - Mathew went to his 1st Miami Heat game.

February - I went to the John Mayer concert with good ole time friend, Denise!

March - Mathew and I went to Montreal, Canada in March for a winter week get-away: the snowball effect and O'Canada, I love you so, but here are...

April - Mathew and I went to Disney on Ice with his best friend, Jose and his family.

April - I witnessed one of the best weddings to date; partly cause it was gorgeous, mostly cause it's my favorite couple, and so totally cause of their love, one-of-a-kind. Jillian and Brian, I love you!

April - Mathew and I went to the Panthers hockey game.

May - Mathew and I went to Disney for a week: 6 days, 5 nights, 4 parks

May - I went back to Montreal for my cousin, Eric's wedding: Message from Robin

June - Mathew, Philippe (my lil' bro) and I went to Jungle Island and had a 2-month old bengal tiger sit on our lap! So cool!

June - Mathew had his 1st sleepover at our house with his best friend, Jose.

June - I went skydiving in memory of my brother's birthday: OMG! Amazing!

August - I went back AGAIN to Montreal for my cousin, Yaelle's wedding.

August - I got rid of my iPhone for my new DroidX.

October - Mathew and I went to the Monday Night Football game on Mathew's 5th birthday. The Miami Dolphins lost, but we still had a fantastic time.

October - For my birthday, my dad got me a luxury suite at the Hard Rock Hotel and I celebrated the night away with my closest friends and family.

November - Mathew and I went on a one week cruise for our birthday. We went to St. Maarten, Puerto Rico and the Bahamas.

December - Mathew and I went to two more Dolphin games. Although, they are a pathetic team, we have a great time!

December - Mathew and I "will" be going to Orlando to have dinner with my bestest friend, Carrie, to spend a couple days/nights with Jillian, Brian and their baby Bella, and one day to see Mickey Mouse!

** we also had many family members visit us here in Florida: Yvette, Maurice, Max, Annie, Gabe, Marcelle, Elias, Suzanne, Ben, Melissa (with the kids, Jeremy and Jacob), and maybe more that I can't think of...

So while 2010 had some major pitfalls, it wasn't so bad after all!

Thank you 2010 and I look forward to what 2011 brings.

Happy New Year!

Bring on 2011

Back in Blog

It's been almost a year since I last blogged seriously. And it's hard to ignore the writing juices and creative thoughts that started flowing in my head. So here I am...back to blogging.

I was able to transfer all my old blogs on here (2006 and 2007). Thankfully! As you can see, I didn't blog much in 2008. I was busy mostly painting instead...the newest form of expression for me. I love it.

So, this is just an introductory blog. I'll blog from time to time and hope you enjoy. Subscribe if you are interested or stop by once in a while. I hope my ramblings and what not are interesting enough to keep you coming back.


Before I go, let me leave you with this:
I am sad that football season is over for the Miami Dolphins. They had a great season and hope this is just the beginning of a great era.

Cowboy Up!

So this weekend, I rode the mechanical bull! It is a sexually provocative ride to say the least. It wasn't about trying to last more than 8 seconds, which I did by the way. It was about the guy behind the joystick making your ass fall to the padded floor after he has toyed with you by gyrating you up and down, side to side, and shaking your ass. And all the meanwhile, another guy with a highbeam flashlight pointing out certain body parts for all to see. After falling several times, I am now left with sore inner thighs, a deep dark purple bruise on my inner left thigh, and a slightly sore left tricep. Besides the aftermath, my experience was exhilarating, left me horny and unfortunately unsatisfied. Here are some highlights:

- After falling to the padded floor and walking away to the exit, the man behind the joystick operated the bull to come from behind me and knock me back down.
- I fell on my back, the second I looked up, I could see the bull between my legs shaking it's head back and forth like a frothing animal in heat.
- I broke the bull's neck...yes I swear! The mechanics had to stop my ride to fix the neck.
- I rode the bull reverse cowgirl style! (didn't last 8 seconds in that position)
- I had a moment of "Look Ma no Hands!" haha

I had so much fun. Pictures were taken of this event. As soon as I get my hands on them, I will post them for ya'll to see. Stay tuned.

Cowboy up!

Before I go, let me leave you with this:
It seems that I've been saying "there's always next year" my whole life. For those of you that don't know what I am talking about; it's the 1-5 Miami Dolphins record. I feel like a Red Sox fan before 2004. Yuk! Let's just hope we don't have to wait 86 years. So I finish by saying "there's always next year!"

Is it time to quit?

I know, I know! I have not been blogging that much lately. Am I out of topics or do I just have writer's block? Is it time to quit?

The one dilemma is the recent growth of family members on myspace, now I can't talk about them. HA - who am I kidding, it won't stop me! And then, there's always the topic of Mathew. I can write about him everyday, he does something everyday worth talking about. For example, today he said the word "ball," he gave me the best kiss ever, and repeatedly says Mama (which I am not sick of yet). But does my audience really want to hear about Mathew all the time? Okay, so I will promise to work on better blog topics. I might even delve into the psyche of Nancy…scary, huh? It's deeper than anyone can possibly imagine.

Before I go, let's start with one of my favorite deep thoughts. It comes from a poem written by Edgar Allen Poe:
Is all that we see or seem
But a dream within a dream?

And yes, the Dolphins finally win one! (1-2)

NFL Season Opener

So Football season has officially started...
And so have my tears!

Steelers 28

Put this game in the L column...for losers!

Current Season Record: Miami Dolphins 0-1

Before I go, let me leave you with this:
"I'm such a baby, yeah, the Dolphins make me cry."
