You're Welcome Alanis!

I am sure you have all been to an amusement park and seen a group or family all dress alike. Heck, you may have been the leader of one of these matchy-matchy incidents. Usually the family or group dresses in an alarmingly bright color so that they can spot one another in a crowd. I happened to be at Disneyland the other day and saw a family traipsing down the street to the park entrance wearing camouflage shirts. But isn't the point of camouflage to blend in and not be seen? (For instance, the girl pictured above is barely visible!)



Here are some real good lyrics that should be added to Alanis Morissette's "Ironic" song:


"It's a family that wears camouflage to stand out in a crowd
Isn't it Ironic..."

Yeah. You're welcome Alanis.

Say Cheeeeeese

This weekend I was at a gathering in which I was standing at the food table (odd, I know) chatting with a friend. He was excited that they had a cheese platter and were serving Harvati cheese, since that is one of his favorites. He asked what my favorite cheese was and the classic line of Amanda Bines saying "I like gouda" came to mind. I started to chuckle and said, "Have you seen the movie, 'She's the Man'?"
He replied, "You mean 'Cheese the Man'?" Then he scolded me, "Stay on Topic!"

Don't worry, he knew what I was talking about. Ha.

I like swiss.

Southern Exposure

This week has been like no other week of my life.

I am in charge of the marketing at work and our company was chosen to be featured on a television program called "American Builders".

They feature some of the finest home builders around the country. The film crew was here this week and I did a lot of the scheduling. I spent Monday and Tuesday with Shane and Donna from South Carolina getting footage of our homes, staff and clients. (I might even be on television!) Friday I spent driving them around San Diego to get classic footage of the city - from Balboa Park and the Midway to the Del Mar race track and all that we could get in-between.

It was a blast meeting them and learning about their southern lifestyle and experiences. It is amazing that southerners can be so charming and endearing even when talking about eating squirrel for breakfast.

I have been dreaming in a southern accent all week!
