Cheese Balls and Alcohol

I was talking to one of my best friends today and I realized that I may not be hanging around with the right kind of people. Let me explain... I am VERY choosey lately who I let in to my circle. If you get to hang out with me and my friends...you're welcome! We are nothing short of spectacular, or at least I thought that we were. Until I saw this... Borrowed photo from The Wine Chronicles and from a text my friend Jill sent me! Now let me ask you this, who the HELL has ever just lost a shoe?  I have never been having so much fun that: 1). my shoe flew off  2). I said "ah, what the hell. I don't need it anyway!" I must care about my shoes far more than some of the other people out there! I would never leave one of my precious babies in the middle of the road to fend for itself. And I spend too much money on my shoes to just throw then around all willy-nilly! However, that being said...I could be convinced if (and only IF) I was having f...

It's bittersweet when you decide to move on to something new. I left something that I knew like the back of my hand and moved on to something new. My career in radio was something that I loved more than I could ever express, but when it's time to move on, you just know. And this time, I knew.  I made the very hard decision to step away from the microphone at Nash FM and try something new. I walked away TWO MONTHS AGO from one-half of the Cutter and Alisha Morning Show. Where has the time gone?? Over the years, I have had the opportunity to meet and see some of the most amazing artists from some of the best seats, and some of the worst seats (but at least I was in the building)! So here I am at the end of the year (almost) and I always get nostalgic and think back about some of the greatest moments, not only of the year, but of my career in radio. Some of the best moments that come to mind are: I sat side-stage at Gruene Hall and watched George Strait sing to a ...

This weekend I broke up with my two of my best friends, Gargoyle* and Ragnarok* (not their real names), and it felt pretty damn good! No, you know what, it feels great! At the time, it felt awful, but now I know they should have been dumped a long time ago! They have been using me for years. I always thought it was odd that they were always around when cool events or concerts were occurring and were always more than happy to go with us to everything IF we offered free tickets. I did invite them to go for free after all. However, anytime there was an event that we were going to that they would be required to BUY tickets...oddly, they had other plans, or were unavailable for some reason or another. I wrote this off as coincidence for the longest time, because after all, they were my FRIENDS. And friends wouldn't use you like that, would they? The answer is yes. Yes, they would and yes they do and yes they did. At least these "friends" did. Over the summer we drif...

I won't go into super specific details because I have already been "talked to" about it by higher powers...but I will start with a story - that I am borrowing from a friend of mine.  A while ago, we had a major golf tournament in our city. The mayor of our city and our city council decided that it was a good idea to clear all of the homeless people out of the area while all the "fancy" people were in town.  Hmmm... Can you guess what happened as soon as the golf tournament was over? Yep. The homeless people went right back to where they were before the "fancies" came to town.  My friend lives in this neighborhood and we were talking about how odd that was, the cleaning out of an entire "community". But oddly enough, no one did anything else about the homeless population in the rest of the city...strange...anyway... The mayor and council of our fine city didn't want anyone to see what really happens and who really lives in ou...

I've been MIA. In all reality, I forgot my password.  And I'm lazy. So welcome back to me. I promise to myself (and a little bit to you) that I will post on the regular. I have a lot to say, because damn man, there are things in my life that just flat out suck. Some of you know what I do for a living, others do not. It doesn't matter either way. I gotta tell you the things that go on, because I can not make this shit up! And I am willing to bet that you can relate and probably experience something similar....so here we go... XO A.

Anytime I come across something delicious, I am usually on a diet! It seems that I am forever on a diet. But I am just going to drop this here and let you know that out of the 38 items on this list, I want to eat 38 of them....twice! So enjoy my friends. If you are blessed to be thin enough to eat all of them, do it! If you are always watching what you eat...enjoy the pictures while you eat your healthy tree bark. "Food pictures and videos = porn for fat people" (and yes I qualify to say that...A. Marie = Body like a can of busted biscuits! mmmmm...I like biscuits!) http://www.delish.com/cooking/recipe-ideas/g3219/copycat-recipes/?src=arb_fb_d&mag=del&dom=fb
