Café Con Monica

This time around…

August 13, 2013

So I was gone for a week. Since I got home last month I have been go go go and I realized that I wasn’t making time to read blogs or comment and barely even post. I stopped interacting with  my favorite blog people and my posts just became summaries of what I was doing and there was no depth to them.

I still have so much I want to tell you guys about my experiences living in Thailand and China and how I feel that have changed me for better and worse. But for right now I have to focus on finding a job and maybe an apartment soon after and getting things worked out with being back in school.

So if you are in Chicago, lets hang out! If your not please forgive me for the less than deep posts that will continue coming. I promise to be better about reading and commenting as well I don’t want to completely miss out on whats is going on with all my favorite bloggy people!

Ooh and I leave you with this song…because I love Miranda Lambert 🙂

When I do watch sports…

August 2, 2013

Its usually soccer but sometimes I go to baseball games as well….usually for the booze.

One of my coworkers in China had no idea what tailgating is…can you believe that? I was like well…what do you do when you go to a Rugby game back home just go in the stadium? You mean you don’t grill and get drunk in the parking lot??? What kind of madness….

Anyway…this past weekend i went to the USA v Panama GoldCup finale soccer game and Tuesday I went to the Cubs v Brewers game for my bestie G’s birthday 🙂

Told you I have been a busy bee….

Cubs game!

Do you go to any games? So yea…you can see its been a crazy week. Hopefully an even better weekend is on the way!

When birthday parties are done right….(link up)

August 1, 2013

This past weekend we celebrated my best friend G‘s birthday. Some of my favorite girls met me out for dinner before we joined the party and by the time we got there he had passed go and collected too many shots. It was a good night and seriously felt just like old times 🙂 


So what better way to link up for The Party Don’t Start till I walk in…than with my first party back in Chicago? 



and then the birthday boy was done…..



I think it went pretty well for a first night out! How do you do birthday parties?
