Am I a Perv?

Or does this panda mural at World Famous San Diego Zoo depict something naughty?

Here I Am

Hello and sorry for the short hiatus. Last week was nuts - had both my boss and his boss in town the first half of the week and Judy arrived for the second half of the week. Unfortunately I forgot about May Gray but we have been making the most of it and having plenty of laughs. She loved SD but TJ not so much (but we only went to a club there - although she does agree that Agustin is such a cute boy). Funny she noticed the huge amount of neon all over SD like I did when I first got here. I am glad she is here to visit but I am also glad that she loves SD too.

Home?

I got tickets for my friend Margaret on her birthday to see Michael Buble in San Diego. She asked me to go with her and although I was not terribly eager to see him, well I knew I would have a fun night with her. The show was last Friday night and boy was I pleasantly surprised. A terrific voice for sure but what a true showman. It was an electric show filled with fun, touching momements and sincerity.
When it came time for him to sing his big song "Home" - there were these huge monitors showing San Diego sites like Gaslamp, Petco Park, Old Town, Point Loma, Balboa Park, the Zoo, etc. A bit gimicky and hallmarkish you might say but it worked perfectly in the moment. I joined the crowd in cheers as the next hometime image was shown. I knew each one and had been to each one of them too! But mostly I was excited because I was swept up in the civic pride roused. I was happy to see great images of a great city. It was not odd not to see Fenway Park, the State House, Back Bay, Quincy Market, etc and that pleased me. It also pleased me to realize that San Diego is my home. I love being home.

Tu Rompio Mi Corazon!

Ahhh that is ok. It is still good to know I have a heart to break.
Gracias por todo!

Michelle's Memories

The hitchhiker you picked up who called you Lori.

Editor's Note: Ummmm this is a very vague recollection and that might be a good thing. Really folks I am not holding out on you on this one.
