Hello, Hello...strictlyMIA...you there?!?!?

Yes, we're alive! There really is no excuse for our lapse in posting...or is there? Actually, the thing is, I just got a puppy and she peed on my laptop...so as you can imagine, it has been hard to connect to bring you the latest and greatest about anything and everything Miami. Do you forgive us?

Well...if I'm begging forgiveness, I should tell you the truth (especially since I haven't really actually gotten my puppy yet)...we've simply fallen off the map...have been slacking off...lost our focus...but behind every slacker there is always an excuse, so here are some of ours:
  1. Travelin' - I went on vacay a month ago...and while I physically checked-out and came back, I hadn't really mentally checked-in. Luckily, I just survived a 50-hour work week...so my brain has re-activated itself from "slacker, do just enough to get by" mode to "get shit done, while burning the midnight oil" mode. In addition to my fun in the sun, I also had some business travel in between. All the air travel sent my funny, witty brain chip into hibernation...I'm not sure if it is fully awake yet, but hopefully the rustiness will wear off in the next few posts.

  2. Celebratin'- strictlyMIA graduated!!! So, she took some time to mentally decompress...after all the shize she went through at F-I-U...I don't blame her. CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!

  3. Workin' - After graduation, StrictlyMIA started the "real world." Meaning goodbye Friday mani/pedi at noon, hello 9 to 5, baby! Some growing pains are in order.

  4. Couch Potato-in' (kinda) - Blame it on the a a a a a alcohol...well, not really...more like the TV...I got sucked into Grey's, Lost, the NBA Playoffs...which all did include some alcohol-happy (or miserable if we're talking about the Heat's elimination) viewing parties. Plus, I'm broke...so TV and Robert Mondavi's Pinot Noir (only the $9, private collection) have become my new BFFs.

But, there's no need to fear! I just got my tax return check, bought some new red shoes, and found some new inspiration...so, I'm happy to say we're back business!!!

P.S. do you have any lame excuses for laziness?? Please do share...my excuse well is running dry and I'm sure I'll need something at one point or another (of course, not for the blog =).
