You would think that all the years I have been blogging I would have mentioned a birthday here or there more than just a few times. Well the other day I was looking through my blog & realized that wasn’t the case at all. I’m not sure why. I suppose I just get caught up in other things and sometimes it just slips away like a lost thought.<\/p>\n

So I have one, two or perhaps a few for you. As of the 11th: Happy Birthday to B Squared. Love you!<\/p>\n

I also want to wish my brother Michael a happy birthday as his will be here on the 14th.<\/p>\n

And finally here is a belated birthday wish to my brother (31st of last month) and to my mom (was on the 5th).<\/p>\n

I think I’m all caught up. I should be caught up for quite a while. All of the birthdays seem to happen in clusters.<\/p>\n

So first and foremost please keep my friend Ben in your prayers. He is dealing with some serious family events that are very recent and very raw.<\/p>\n

I have some other things I will blog about soon, but I’m going to keep this post generally upbeat.<\/p>\n

“Beautiful day today, but rain is on the way” – local weatherman
\nI kinda liked the way it sounded but rain can be and is very beautiful as well. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The other day I tried to prescreen\u00a0The Vow. Yeah I’m a sucker for some of those good sappy flicks, but it has to be good. I liked the notebook but didn’t like dear John, or ps I love you. So it just depends. Anyway… Here was here scene when we arrived:<\/p>\n

It looks like, oh dear.. Yes it is.<\/p>\n

Another world premier. Except this time we weren’t prepared for it. I don’t think the studio was prepared for the fanfare we experienced. There were probably about 500+ in line for the show. I’ve never seen so many in all my pre-screening experiences. Needless to say that we and like 450 other people didn’t get in to see it. They overbooked the place like nobody’s business.<\/p>\n

There were so many people who\u00a0when everyone left and walked down Hollywood Blvd\u00a0it seemed like you were a sardine jam-packed in a can. Fun times.<\/p>\n

Anyway. That’s all I have for now. I’ll try to update soon with some other stuff that has been going on, but until then…<\/p>\n

just Pray<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
