Pictures & a PSA

I'll get the PSA out of the way first.

I had sometime before my show this past Saturday, so I went to one of the new early voting polls to go vote. I was in line for about an hour before I got to vote, which is kinda cool, if you think about it. An hour for early voting for the PRIMARIES. The whole point for this little story? GO VOTE! Early voting ends Feb. 29, the actual primary is on Mar. 4 and (at least on the Democratic side) caucus starts at 7p on Mar. 4.

End of PSA. Now the pics.

Yes, I know, I know, these pictures are overdue. These are some of my pics from last month's trip to the Philippines. I'll get the rest posted on Flickr (once I figure it all out).

Mom & I at Fort Santiago in Manila.

My cousin's wife, Ann & I at the Shangri-La.

Me & the de la Cruz family.

The Parreno side of the family at Lola's birthday party.

More to come later. Really. I promise!

My Super Bowl Sunday

This was the first Super Bowl Sunday in awhile that I can remember having off. Usually I'm in a rehearsal or a performance and it always cuts into part, if not all of the Super Bowl. So today was luxurious! Here's what I did today:

• wake up (because the cats woke me up)
• feed the cats (that's why they woke me up)
• move to the couch with blanket & pillow in hand
• doze off listening to the political talking heads
• wake up again
• foraged for brunch (really, it was too late to call it breakfast)
• doze off again
• woke up in time for pre-game
• cook my lunch and dinner for the next day and a half
• threw some laundry in the washer
• go back to the couch to watch the Super Bowl
• ate dinner somewhere during halftime
• finished watching Super Bowl (I thought it was a good game, a few of my friends did not)
• met up with a couple of friends at Agora because I needed to get out of the house for a bit

Basically, I just lounged about and did nothing constructive. It was GREAT!
