March to June – Shorthand Story

In: perfectly maria|tampa bay lightning|travel

31 May 2011

Every year it seems that around March I’m complaining about how much I hate winter and I’m tired of being cold and then all of a sudden it’s June.  This year is no different. I’ve been engrossed in the NHL playoffs, mostly because the Tampa Bay Lightning made it to the Eastern Conference Finals in [...]

I’ll always be younger…muhahahaha Today is Chuck’s birthday.  As I type this I wonder if he cares that I just told the whole world his age, hmmm I hope not.  He treats his birthday just as another day, which I really don’t understand.  No really, it blows my mind.  I’d celebrate birth week or month [...]

3 Mar 2011

Chuck and I wanted to keep our Tampa vacation as cheap as possible.  I started looking for flights in advance.  I set up airfare alerts with Airfare Watchdog (no account needed to signup for email alerts ), Kayak and Farecompare. Yes, I got a lot of email but it only takes a second to figure [...]

Autographs in Hockey Paradise

23 Feb 2011

Before our last trip to Tampa, the only time I waited around for an autograph was when I was 16ish.  Encouraged by my own mother Lisa, Amanda and I waited outside the Ritz Carlton in Dearborn for the Backstreet Boys’ tour bus to pull up.  I wish I could say that we waited around freezing [...]

20 Feb 2011

When we moved to the Tampa Bay area in 2005 we had no idea we would grow so attached to another NHL hockey team that wasn’t the Detroit Red Wings.  We didn’t have enough money for Center Ice package to get the Red Wings games so we watched the next best thing, the Tampa Bay [...]

Now that I got the PF Chang thing off my chest I’ll tell a happy story.  Clearly, we won’t be discussing Delta.  Instead I’ll tell you what Chuck and I did for Valentine’s Day in San Diego. We started the day with a drive north from our Mission Beach condo.  Then we thought it would [...]

A San Diego Overview

In: travel

1 Mar 2010

San Diego was a pretty awesome trip.  And before you ask, no we didn’t go to the Zoo or Seaworld.  To briefly sum up our trip, we bummed around, walked endless miles, saw amazing sunsets and wore ourselves out so we were in bed by 11pm. We are early vacation risers so the days started [...]

In the past 4 days Chuck and I have went through a list of destinations for our next vacation. Las Vegas, Arizona, Key West and New York. What we decided on was San Diego when my finger typing and clicking came across a flight that we found was more than reasonable. We’ve been talking about [...]
