Christmas Gifts for Foster Children

I know I may not get many comments on this blog, but from my stats, I see that a lot of people are visiting it. So I’d like to extend this opportunity to all of you  to do a good deed for a needy child.

As some of you may or may not know, I work with foster children. Every holiday season, we ask our family and friends to donate Christmas gifts since unfortunately this cost is not in our budget. I have been blown away previous years with the amount of people interested and willing to participate. A couple of years ago, our conference room was just full of amazing gifts – the children’s faces were priceless.

If you are interested in donating a gift to this cause, please leave your email address in the comments and I will email you with the children’s wishlists so you can choose an item.

Thank you!

xoxo

Concert Junkie

Yes, my blogging silence has officially ended. Rejoice?

I’ve seen quite a few bloggers posting this meme and thought it couldn’t be more relevant, after all, I am a bona fide concert addict. Nothing brings me greater joy than seeing bands that I truly love up close and personal – to have that connection that is really indescribable. Even better sometimes is going to a show blind  and being blown away by a new act. Discovering a band while Internet surfing or listening to your friend’s record collection cannot compare in the least bit with discovering them live. So without further ado, here is my (very long & comprehensive) list:

Bands I have seen live

The Smashing Pumpkins (5x)
No Doubt (2x)
Bush (2x)
Gavin Rossdale (2x)
Muse
Mute Math (4x)
Spoon
Girl Talk
Camp Freddy
Jane’s Addiction
Nine Inch Nails
Melissa Auf Der Maur
The Bear McCreary Orchestra
Suenalo
Kings of Leon (2x)
Jason Mraz
Maroon 5 (2x)
The Donnas
Pearl Jam
Blink 182 (3x)
30 Seconds to Mars (3x)
The Band from TV
Pink (2x)
*Nsync (6x? I lost count – it’s embarrassing)
Justin Timberlake
Foo Fighters
Weezer
Third Eye Blind (2x)
The Wallflowers (2x)
Lenny Kravitz (3x)
Britney Spears (2x) – don’t judge!
