Dear Jason, I just looked at your tour schedule and was disappointed to learn that you won’t be coming to Omaha this Fall.  However, you’ll be going to BOISE, ID???  Seriously?  Not that I have anything against Boise or Idaho, but BOISE, ID? Omaha is very upset by this news. Love, PJ (image source) My… Continue reading 2008 September | SIMA

It was such a relief not to go into work this morning. J and I had To Do list with a deadline–ASAP! We dropped off our welcome letter, programs and seating cards to the copy place this morning, and I had to go back this afternoon while J was at work to pick them up.… Continue reading 2008 May | SIMA

I didn’t realize how much I liked Matchbox Twenty until the end of their concert last night at the Qwest Center, when my throat was sore from singing and screaming and my legs ached from dancing at my seat. I surprised myself by knowing words to songs I haven’t been played on the radio since… Continue reading 2008 February | SIMA

I got my second French manicure today at a different nail salon than when I had one done before Jessica’s wedding, and again the white tips seem too wide. I should have said something to the nail technician before he put on the top coat, but again I kept my mouth shut. Why do I… Continue reading 2007 December | SIMA

Yesterday on WeddingBee.com, I came across a couple’s itinerary for their honeymoon to Italy. Amazingly they took nearly the exact same trip J and I want to take! I got really excited and started some maniac research on hotels in Rome, Florence and Venice. Thanks to the itinerary I found, we might also add Naples/Capri,… Continue reading 2007 November | SIMA

In the same year that J proposed to me in Boston, the city where we both went to college, the Boston Red Sox won their second World Series in four seasons. It was their 7th World Series win. The win last night also ended a seven-game winning streak that began in Cleveland with the ALCS. … Continue reading 2007 October | SIMA

Crap. I haven’t written in a while. But I have a good — nay, great — excuse. My sister was in town over the weekend! She was supposed to fly in Friday night from Newark, but her flight was canceled for no reason. “Thunderstorms,” they said. Bollocks. There was no rain in NYC or Omaha.… Continue reading 2007 July | SIMA

What a whirlwind of a weekend. You should be relieved to know that J and I made it to the airport on time, but by the time we got through security (who knew there would be such a line at 5:30 AM?), our plane had already started to board. So we hopped on, and away… Continue reading 2007 June | SIMA

And the name of the day is… Remy! Why Remy? Well, my mother-in-law thought of the name while she was on the plane heading to Omaha yesterday… my father thought of the name on his own back in NJ… and my mom said the name jumped out at her off of a long list of… Continue reading what’s my puppy’s name? | SIMA
