Actually, I haven't kept up with what else is playing since I saw FELA. I don't see anything else interesting that I would like to see right now. I still haven't seen FENCES yet and don't know when I'll be attending another show in the next couple of months due to other plans. I also haven't seen the King Tut exhibition yet, because when I was supposed to go, I ended up in St. Thomas, VI instead. lol

I believe Fences ended last month. But, yeah, I saw the King Tut exhibit last year when it was in Dallas. I was disappointed tho cuz I thought it was the one I saw in the late 90s but it wasn't. The previous one was better IMO but I can't remember the name of it.

Also saw corinne bailey rae

then two weeks later we went again with the fam to the North Sea Jazz in Rotterdam. Saw Buddy Guy Joss Stone and Stevie Wonder in concert among others (Ben Harper sucked pretty bad I actually fell sleep)

Got to talk to Stevie's guitarist and backup singer for a bit. Great folks.

Just came back from our Lake Tahoe trip which was great.

Extended family having medical procedures done this week so pray 'n that those all come out okay.

Starting back to school stuff. This is my oldest's Sr. year in HS, so bawl

Decided that this year I'll be taking advantage of the local harvests, so I'll be taking time over the remaining summer weekends to find fresh fruits and veggies.

I'm firmly planted in denial

I'm "camping" with friends and my bf this weekend. I say it in quotes as I'll be sleeping in a king-sized bed in an air conditioned camper and we'll have showers available and all that. lol

The following weekend I have a big block party with local bands and all that kind of fun.

The weekend after that it's off to Indianapolis for my very good friend (and former org mod shhh)'s 40th birthday party.

And the weekend after that I'm taking my niece to see Lady Gaga. She's sooooooooooooooooo excited!

I've had the busiest time of late. My social life of late has gone a bit mental.

I got back from Gran Canaria a couple of weeks ago.

The week after, I went camping for a long weekend near Morecambe.

Last weekend I went to a wedding in Harrogate and to the races at Thirsk.

This weekend it's a friends birthday party on the Friday and another friend's party on the saturday.

The week after it's my friend's wedding.

The week after that, I'm off camping again, off down to Bury st Edmunds to a party and am hopefully going to be buying a beagle pup.

First week of September, I have a fancy dress birthday party to attend.

2nd week of september, my friend's having a party in Hemel Hempstead

3rd week of september, is my friend's baby boy's christening.

And then in october, I'm hoping to have a week away to Normandy.

aaarrrrrggghhh!!! too much to dooo! Gonna be flat, stinking broke... But it's gonna be a hell of a couple of months smile

blah blah blah

Our office is closed this week, so I have the week off. This afternoon I'm going to the spa to use up a gift certificate from my birthday: facial, mani/pedi, and back massage. I'll probably spend the rest of the week trying to take care of little errands and stuff I never have time to get to.

This weekend I'm going to Boston to rendez-vous with my mom, who will be there on business. We're going to go to the Fogg Museum at Harvard.

Later this month I'm going to St. Barthelemy for 6 days. I'm super excited to hit the beach. sun

I'll also be glad when the current exhibition at the museum where I give tours closes. I'm so tired of it -- I was there every weekend in July (normally I'm only there 2 days/month) so I'm definitely looking forward to not having to give tours until the end of August and a new show.

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

You're going to want to take these to a good cobbler before you wear them and have the heels checked. Three of use here bought these last winter in different locales and all three of us ended up with broken heels the first time we wore them.

I'm guessing you mean the the Louboutins? They are really the worst quality "designer" shoes out there. I had to rebuild the other pair I have before I even wore them. I said never again, but I had to have these. disbelief

I've never had any problem with my Diors though, they're great quality shoes IMO.

Yes, that's the pic I copied in my reply. Actually, that was the first pair I've ever had any issue with. I do know a couple co-workers have had issues with them when they've bought them from non-authorized sellers. hmm

I'm not a fan of Dior shoes. The fit is always off.

I hear ya. :thumbsupL

Your lil nephew already a straight Romeo. WOW. He's gonna get alot of attention from the ladies. Be sure to "stilletto" some crazy women when the time comes. With your shoe collection, it will be easy to set aside some "killer shoes" lol

Yep can't complain about my summer. thumbs up!

Seems like yours is going well too!
