If You Seek Lisa

I am not SO self-absorbed as to assume you've all been personally impacted by how infrequently I've been updating this blog lately. In fact, the only person who probably noticed was my friend Leslie, who gently prodded me via email last week to let me know I'd been missed (I think her exact words were "UPDATE YOUR FREAKIN' BLOG SO I CAN GET THAT "PART TIME LOVER" SONG OUT OF MY DAMN HEAD.")

Okay, so...BUSTED. I've been a little "out of pocket" as of late (don't you hate it when people say "out of pocket?" What does that even mean?)

Let's catch you up on what you missed:

1. We celebrated my dad's 61st birthday by breaking
   out the leftover pirate piñata from Jack's party
   last month. Jack beat that thing to a bloody pulp while yelling "THIS IS HARD CORE! HARD CORE!" Then he tore off its head, speared it with the piñata stick and paraded it around the village, followed by cake.
   
   
2. My brother and sister-in-law came to visit. And bought a house. Not here...in Minneapolis (BOO). My SIL was also accepted into her MBA program of choice (YAY). Brains, beauty AND great hair. May he endeavor to deserve her.
   
   
3. I spent two weeks working around-the-clock (literally, some days) doing Website/social media stuff for the launch of a certain little-known mobile device. Let's call it..."MyPhone." During this time I neglected my usual eight-hour sleep requirement and standards of personal hygiene in order to field 2 a.m. tweets threatening to rape me and/or wishing death upon my children.
   
   
4. I turned 34. A whole year older. But still younger than most of you bitches. So there.
   
   Oh yeah...I had some cake.
   
   
5. Ben and I travelled to Chicago for the wedding of my fabulous friend Kim. As a bonus, we got to stalk our old apartment AND throw it down with my college besties and their better halves. And by "it" I mean cake.
   
   
6. While in Chicago, Ben got the greatest possible Father's Day gift...and that would be a weekend without fathering. But lest you think us callous, selfish parents, let me assure you that we made it home in time for a celebratory Father's Day dinner with our wee one. Complete with cake.

I think that pretty much brings us up to speed. What about you? What have YOU been eating?

I mean...doing?
