So much to say ... so little time

I miss writing!! I have been a SAHM (Stay at home mom) for almost 1 1/2 years now and as much as I LOVE being home with my child, I'm starting to miss using my brain for more "adult" things (people had warned me about this, I guess it just took me a lot longer than most others to get there).  If anything, my idle brain has started to produce more thoughts than ever (who knew that was even possible).  Feel like I have so much to say and so much that I want to do but time has become a rarer commodity than ever before. Hoping, now that my baby is not such a baby anymore, I can start to put these thoughts on paper (or the web) again :)

Happy Friday Everyone.  Beautiful day in DC today which we spent in Chinatown which seemed more like Linetown today courtesy of the Living Social $1 lunch specials.  Every restaurant in DC seemed to have a line out the door and around the corner.

Girl's night last night, another girl's night tonight. Easter egg hunt tomorrow followed by some much needed family time (as in me, hubby & baby), followed by some very annoying house hunt (looking for a house in the DC area is like pulling hair from your upper lip one by one .... lol ....  don't ask me why thats the comparison I came up with).

Until next time ...  buh-bye (as my baby would say)!!!!

One man's annoying is another man's .... best friend???

I know we all know people that we think are annoying.  Whether its someone who is overly dramatic (like beyond bollywood dramatic), persistent whiners (suffering from the Poor Me syndrome every day), the idle gossip (only capable of talking about other people's lives) or the eternal cheapskate (pinching pennies on $200 bills). I know I have a few people I've encountered that I find to be extremely annoying and that I could really do without having them in my life. What's interesting however is seeing how people that I find to be eye sores could be the apple of someone else's eye.  Especially when those people happen to be perfectly normal, seemingly cool friends of mine.  Is my tolerance just very low or do people just have different personalities around different individuals.  I mean maybe I'm doing something to bring out the worst in these "annoying" friends or maybe they just want to do things to get a rise out of me every time.  Otherwise how is it possible that what I (and apparently most people around me) see in these annoying beings, completely escapes other individuals?  I mean, are they not seeing what the rest of us are seeing??
