277.365.2013 Last Days & Celebrations

Well, it was my last day in MPD. After 5 years, it seems completely foreign to work on a different floor, with a different team on different projects. I have a different boss, a different elevator bank and different culture.

I’m excited. I’m sad. I’m scared. I’m energized.

Therefore, we celebrate. We commiserate. We bitch. We advise. We drink. We are friends!

And we play. We chat. With our best friends.

Sometimes you just need a beer with friends… It’s been a long week and I very much enjoyed it.

Pooch also had a treat tonight… His second (and last) Bark Box arrived tonight. He enjoyed the pig ear very much as he immediately began to hide it all over and then chewed it up!

222.365.2013 Irish Fair and Babies

Today was a blast! We volunteered with Finnegan’s at the Irish Fair. Dave was the resident photographer while I signed up new volunteers and did tattoos.

The best part was when a judge for the cocktail contest didn’t show up and I “had” to fill in! So, I get to “volunteer” by tasting 12 cocktails made with Finnegan’s? Okay! They were delightful!

Finally, after several long years, our friends the McCallisters moved to town! We are so excited to have them close by… And we got to meet our niece Zara! She’s very cute and well behaved.

Diohgé joined us, but he and Chef weren’t besties. So he wanted to go home and sleep.

Tonight we volunteered for Finnegan’s at Brew at the Zoo. We had a blast! Becca and Nick joined us to volunteer and they did a great job selling the brand. Lots of people enjoyed the Blonde!
