one of my most faithful readers (that is, my mother-in-law) mentioned that i hadn't been blogging since i'd been feeling well. it's true! i have been reading blogs, and i have *thought* about blogging. but....there is SO MUCH TO DO! and i can do so much more these days! ah, it's a fabulous world. i feel like i'm on top of the world. it's a kind of happiness i can hardly explain......it's like i've been given my life back. that probably sounds over-dramatic, but really - it's a very apt description.
so i need to catch you all up here -- first, my pink hair -- it's faded a LOT, but here's a picture of it the week i had it done. high quality, of course, since i took it of myself, you know it's going to be good. ;)
i'll avoid any commentary about my appearance.... moving on!the shorts i told you about? here's a picture of them on me - they're actually looser than they look, this makes them look tapered (shudder) near the knee; they're not.
and finally a little bit of a texas recap (this is going to have to take place over a few entries..) one of the places we went to eat was Chris Madrid's, in san antonio.it's a complete hole-in-the-wall, and there are t-shirts all over the wall, signed by various famous people who've eaten there. they are listed as one of AOL's 15 burgers to try before you die, and people, it just might kill you. they are FABULOUS burgers, and delicious....mostly i speak of the grease factor. ;) here's spencer's burger - he got a jalepeno cheeseburger, macho sized. i got his hand in there so you could get an idea of the massive size of this burger --
i had a 'normal' sized burger -- and it was pretty humongous as well. here's a shot of him taking his first bite -
and the deliciousness in the middle (note the jalepenos)
and here is the remains; what could not be finished. (i should note here that i did finish my burger).
wow. if you're ever nearby, you must try it. it's an experience not to be forgotten.Labels: burgers, chris madrid's, food, hair, san antonio, texas

I have shorts sorta like that and everywhere I go someone comments about them. Yours are super cute! And I really dig the pink hair. I did my hair once with a big chunk of maroon right in the front. That was awesome. I think I'm too old to do that now though.... but I don't know. The pink is really really cute.....
