FLASHBACK FRIDAY: FUNUSA, June 1999


Ah yes, the good ole' days here at the bank...First USA (also known as FUNUsa), then changed to Bank One, then changed to and currently stands at, JPMChase....I had the perfect job...I planned all the parties, bank-wide! That included all the outdoor jam fests with free food and booz and bands...Love Seed, Green Genes...what FUN that was....I'd sneak in all my friends that didn't even work there! But, all good things must come to an end...and that it did...Bank One bought us and things changed FAST...there was no more parties ever...oh well, at least it was fun while it lasted...the memories are forever!

Doubletree hosted a coctail party and since Raegan works there, she invited us to go...never easy for me to escape to any functions AFTER work, but this one I made happen...lot's of running around on my part, but well worth it! Thx, Raegan!!!
p.s. Tina, Jimmy totally took YOUR side with the whole STEVE guy thing...:(

She's a FOX...


Ok, the big controversy at work was women who are "hot"...and when I chimmed in and said Megan Fox, the guys went nuts...you'd think I was standing there naked or something...the conversation suddenly took on a new twist! Silly boys...HELLO, I'm human, not dead...I'm not so above myself to not call a spade a spade...the girl is HOT for sure...but when girls talk about other girls... men go crazy! What's up with that?!?

Happy Birthday, Jody...Fun in the City!

























After the movie, we set out to our FAV bar, Toscana's, to get some real drinks...the only place in Trolley upscale enuff to know how to make REAL drinks...Then off for some dancing fun at Rooney's...and of course, a late night TB run!!! A fun time had by all!!

The Women!

We decided to go see the movie The Women....it was ok...definitely not as good as SATC. But, nonetheless, it was good to get out with good friends and laugh! Then afterwards, off for drinks to Toscana's to celebrate Jody's bd...:)

FLASHBACK FRIDAY:1998: Men 2 Boyz




For once, the guys all decided to be giddy and goofy...Joey, Rob Stone, Rob and Chris all met at my Union Street house, and out of nowhere, they just got big time drunk...dancing, and being silly...it was hysterical to watch (being I was sober.) The best part was the end of the night they all sat on the couch and the huge pic above came crashing down on them....priceless!

YES...another wedding...what do you expect from a BIG family?!?! Love them, hate them...love them because it's a nice night out with friends and family...hate them because I'm seriously BROKE...I tend to give generously, of course, as a gift...oh well, they deserve it!!! And we had a BLAST...AND, (drumroll please)...Jimmy made me a nice breakfast in bed the following morn...eggs, toast, coffee, OJ and, (the best part) the REMOTE (which, sadly, I watched old 90210 reruns), all in my bed, to myself, until 11am....gotta luv that!!!
