Reggae.On.The.River.2006

I just got back from spending 4 days in humbolt county at Reggae on the River. We left at 5am Thursday morning. Moshgan, Sharon, Naghmeh and I got to the river in record time. Unpacked and moved rocks for about 3 hours. The rest... the rest is beautiful. I have never relaxed so much in a weekend as I did this weekend. Our campsite was perfect. We were right on the river's edge and up on the hill was the concert area. So no matter where we were, we heard all the live music by our site. Jo, elliott, neil, arzhang and my mom all headed up later that day so the campsite was all ready for them upon arrival. We did all the hard work but we didn't care. My mom had most of the goodies with her!

As always, I am now back from Reggae and I am at peace. The people were so so nice, the vibe was so peaceful, the ambiance was absolutely spectacular. No drama no nothing. it was pure bliss. I have been going to reggae on the river for 13 years and it gets better and better each time. My family, friends and I loved every moment of it. There are some hilarious stories but what happens on the River stays at the River. I'm sure you all respect that ;)

This year was also Neil and Elliott's first time attending this ever so wonderful 4-day concert. Although the port-o-potties are hard to get used to, they loved it. Jo, me elliott and neil headed back on Sunday. It was sad leaving but I knew we'd be back next year and I was kinda ready to shower. I hadn't showered since Wed!! Ew yuck.

If you are interested, here are some pictures from my ROTR weekend. I am staying in and recooperating today so if you are looking for me, i'll get back to you in a bit.

~~~~Keep it Juicy! Juicy and Tender baby!! ~~~~

THE HAWAII WARRIORS SUCK and I HATE THE TEAM, THE COACH and THE FANS!!

Image
Talk about lucky sons of bitches, if you didn't get a chance to see the Spartan's nearly dominate the Hawaii Rainbow pansies, then you missed one heck of a game. ( picture slideshow courtesy of the SJ Mercury News ) The game began at 5pm and the weather was crap... rain was pouring and the fans were a few... that was until the sun came out and the fans began arriving, reaching to 20,000+ packing the Spartan stadium. ESPN packed the house in the press-box, scouts were hovering around the media stations, trying to find a good seat and stadium workers ran around the stands wiping down seats so people's rears could remain dry. The Hawaii Rainbow Pansies were the talk of football and everyone was expecting SJSU to lose and to lose big. The spread for the game had Hawaii favored by 20+ points. Since this was the only Division 1 football game to be aired on Friday night, everyone on ESPN was ranting about hawaii and their lame ass QB Brennan. Football Analysts were sure that San...

thug night...pack up your eggs baby!

Image
I updated this story.. so if you read it. Reread it. I missed some very important points. ******************************************************************************** What seemed like a normal Tuesday night .. turned out to be quite interesting. First off, I got home lastnight from work before Neil. I was working from home when Neil got home and said let's take the dogs for a walk and grab coffe and go to the grocery store.. Good Ole Zanatto's. We got the dogs dressed and heade d out. After grabbing coffee and groceries, we start heading back home. The walk home is about 3 blocks but we pass many bars and many thugs on our route home. lastnights thug count was out of control. We were walking towards blockbuster/farenheight on San Fernando when we walk past a group of teenagers... about 10 of them. They seemed nice... One of the boys calls Rocco over. Keep in mind i have 2 dogs on leashes with one hand and I'm juggling 2 coffees in my other hand while Neil is lugging 2 ...

Football Widow 2010

Image
Its Football Friday at the Parry House again. For those that don't know, my hubbie is the defensive coordinator for the Sobrato High School Football Team. They are so far 2-1 (Ugh that loss still hurts) and they are ready to play again tonight against Independence High school in San Jose. Here's their entire upcoming schedule The game should be good and if the boys come out to play, they should get the BIG W! Let's go BullDogs! A common terminology used by woman married to men that coach football is that during football season you are a football widow. It is NO JOKE. I thought that football was time consuming when Neil played back at SJSU but NOW, its CRAZY!! Coaching is a very time consuming job, especially if you are super into it like my husband is. Practice M-F afternoon/evening, games friday nights and football planning half the day on a SUNDAY!! With 2 boys at home with me, its super hard because Neil is so tied up with football!! I love love love football season ...
