Go Pack Go


Two weeks ago, as my husband and I sat at the Milwaukee Public Market watching the football game with their 7 suspended flat screen tvs floating over the upstairs garden area, we brought up today’s match. “Would you go if you had a ticket?” I asked. We ended up both agreeing that there was no way given the temps being predicted.

Today at 11am he gets a call from his brother, asking if he wants to go to the game. He turned him down! Sure, I remember what was said, but the sun is shining, Pack is playing NY, Fleet Farm is giving away 30,000 hand warmers, and -19 below is feeling more like 20 degrees. “Yeah, but it won’t at 6pm”. Sigh. He is right, but sometimes I feel too practical.

I’m not a huge sport fan, but this game, especially with the frigid cold, will hopefully prove to be exciting. I have never seen a state so in love with their sport teams, and I practically grew up at Candlestick, ahem, Monster Park.

Give a shout out if you would bear the cold to see the game in person!

Update: Good thing my husband didn’t go. To brave 24 below and a 5 hour round trip doesn’t suck ONLY if your team wins. The Pack’s loss to NY would be crushing, save for the fact it was a MAGNIFICENT game. Although I would prefer green & gold against the Patriots, I have to give props and well wishes to the Giants. But Favre was robbed 🙂

Scrub-a-dub love

I rarely ever buy anything like this. I just can’t believe it. I turn 84 in February and this is my treat for myself! ~ Phyllis, Milwaukee

Him: Who would have thought I’d be walking out with this (scrub)?
Her: I wouldn’t!
Him: It really works. My hands feel great!

My local UPS rep was swooning over my scent a few weeks ago (really!) after asking me to walk along side of him (so he could enjoy the scent) I gave him your site for his significant other. He was thrilled and I was relieved. 🙂 he would comment every single time in crowds of people, ultimately making me a bit embarrassed. But in a nice way. Ahhh- one more happy couple thanks to solessence. 😉 the world is indeed a better place because of it.

Yolonda is "Unconditional"

I love New York in February. No, really.

And I love meeting up with people from the past, like the lovely Yolonda Ross. Yolonda, who was in “Antwone Fisher”, most recently had a role in the Golden Globe winning, Todd Haynes “I’m Not There” (you go Cate). We recently reconnected before the holidays when she excitedly told me about a play she is in that premieres February 7 at Public Theatre in New York City. Billed as a play that “tells Nine New York stories that converge in a racially and sexually charged tale of love, justice, rage and betrayal”, Yolonda glows about it being a ‘really touching piece’.

Mark Wing-Davey’s “Unconditional” has already been given an extension and now runs through March 9, 2008. Catch it while you can!

MAC daddy’s little girl

The number one question these days seems to be, “What makeup does Kim Kardashian wear?”.

So there you go. Girl is always looking flawless and is clearly a MAC fan. Extra points to anyone who can identify shade using their crazy color system. We love us some MAC too.
