Today's wisdom:

"So many people think that practicing an art is a good way to make a living. Practicing an art, no matter how well or how badly, is a way to make your soul grow...it's not a trade." - Kurt Vonnegut

The BLOGGER BALL BLOGGERIFIC!

Got to kick up our heels tonight as a friend and I attended the "Twitterific" 2nd Annual OC Blog Crush Blogger Ball at the Embassy Suites Anaheim South! The room was max capacity with OC Bloggin' people, Twitter live feeds and fun conversation! So great to meet each of you tonight! There were "Blogitos and Twittertinis" Bottles of cold Orange Crush and a wonderful sampling of tasty treats from Embassy Suites Restaurant. . .And then. . . there were SWELL door prizes! 
Thanks to Suzbroughton of broughtonhospitality.com & #ocbloggerball for picking my #105 ticket! (I was SO excited!) I know an amazing time awaits at Andres hotel-Palm Springs! http://tinyurl.com/2e94vtt  Will definitely have to have the bartender make me a few of those Orange Crush Twitterinis!"Absolutely Bloggerific!"

The festive orange table decor and OF COURSE Orange Crush sodas made me think of Satellite Market on Katella and how my brother and sisters and I would walk there to get a Crush, and boy there was nothing cooler than drinking a Crush with my big brother and older sisters on a hot summer day. . .and from a frosty bottle not an 'ol aluminum can!

The "Sputnik" was replaced with a painted sign (Oh TOO Bad) 

Thanks AGAIN Joni aka http://twitter.com/PopArtMinis for the invite! Thanks also to
