It Took 'An Act of God'

-
We opened DW nine months ago and this was the first time my business partner and I went to go do something together. Thanks to our partnership with SHN, I have an opportunity for complimentary tickets for the opening night of new shows. So far I have seen If/Then with Idina Menzel, The Jersey Boys and The Illusionists. Last night, we saw An Act of God with Sean Hayes from  Will & Grace. It was hilarious and my first time to Golden Gate Theatre, which is located three blocks from DW.

When I quit my day job at a law firm, I knew I wasn't going to have much of a life six months after we opened up my 6200 square foot baby. I was right. Krisitian and I have definitely drank at the restaurant into the late hours of the evening but we never really left the restaurant. I really do LIVE there at DW.

It was nice to go out and spend some time together. I think we are both at a place where we are less stressed and didn't feel guilty about leaving the restaurant. I think we deserved 90 minutes to laugh about the creation of life and the universe in 6 days, plus 10 revised commandments. There was name calling, politics and asshole comments but I was cracking up. This was definitely not a show I'd take my very religious Lola to.

We enjoyed ourselves, thanks Sean Hayes and SHN! Theatre goers - if yore see any of the shows at The Orpheum or The Golden Gate Theatre, bring us your ticket stub for a special Encore Cocktail for $8. Plus we have late night food u til 12:30 am.





Update: 
Sean Hayes liked my tweet about the show and highlighting this blog post!

It's Gonna Be May

I'm sure you've seen it. If you have a friend named May, the *Nsync memes are overtaking your Facebook and Instagram feed, right? Tomorrow ends the month of April and I was 10 posts behind the daily blog post challenge. For this Monday Motivation post, I will keep going until I reach that 30 count. Better late than never! May is turning out to be a busy month. Not surprising for this One Busy Bee. I finally have a set schedule for my part time job as a Concierge at the Argonaut Hotel at Fisherman's Wharf. I really do like the job, what I'm doing, the hotel and staff, and how the time spent here contributes to my experience in the travel and tourism industry, all the while continuing in the hospitality industry as well. Working only about 30 hours a week, it will finally allow me to schedule workouts, get in some sort of sleeping pattern and work on my business as a Travel Agent . There is so much to do! So far since I received the month's work schedule

The Bad Girls Club & Love Games, Sarah Michaels, IS the Wellness Shot!

I became a fan of the Bad Girls Club when a Season 3 marathon was airing (in 2008, is it?) and I just had the television on while I was doing chores around the house. Every now and then I’d hear “*BEEP* you, you *BEEP*ing *BEEP*!”, some screaming and “This is the Amber Show” do-do-do-do-do-Doo! Eventually I was glued to the screen and not doing chores anymore and spent most of the day laughing and thinking “ohnoshedidn’t!” They were NUTS! I don’t think I could live my life with a camera following me around and for the whole world to see and criticize. But I kept on watching and when fights broke out, my boyfriend would hear the screaming from another room and ask “WHAT are you watching?!?” I am not one for reality television. MTV had it with The Real World with Pedro, Puck, Pam and whoever… when it was in San Francisco. (GO GIANTS!) With all these Big Brother, The Bachelorette and other shows popping up, there were just too many to pick and choose from to watch. And I was never a

My Most Engaging Post Yet

Christmas is just days away. A storm in the Bay Area has passed. Two holiday parties were a success. But these past 18 hours have been a whirlwind for sure. Yesterday evening, after dinner, in our home office discussing the home we are in process of purchasing, holding a gray box from The Shane Company , my boyfriend (wearing a black long sleeved shirt and his Adidas pants with white paint stains from painting the condo earlier this year, and I in jeans, my Toby Keith blue tank top from his Las Vegas “ I Love This Bar ” restaurant, my blue SFSU zipper up sweatshirt, and my brown childhood blanket draped over my lap) got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. “Yeah.” I hugged him tight and kissed him repeatedly. He was shaking and said “I can’t believe you said ‘yes.” I couldn’t stop smiling and crying and saying “I love you.” And I couldn’t help but laugh when I called him my fiancé for the first time. Wow, we’re really engaged! Since we were in the process of negotiati
