Conan and Babies aka a pretty great weekend

Weekend Part 1:

So this past weekend I had the incredible opportunity to go to the MalariaNoMore fundraiser because my friend Katrina is incredible and got me and a couple other friends tickets. It was hosted by Elizabeth Banks and featured comedians like Conan O'brien, Sarah Silverman, BJ Novak and more. It was hands down the funniest thing I had ever seen. Conan and BJ Novak stole the show in my opinion but Ed Helms, Sarah and the rest were amazing too. I can't even remember the last time that I laughed that hard. It was an experience I will never forget and it just reminded me of how absolutely lucky I am to have the opportunities I do.

CONANDO!!!!

Sarah sang an incredibly inappropriate song that featured the C word prominently

Garfunkel and Oates plus David Arquette. If you don't know 'em, you should check them out

Ed Helms really loves Yanni

BJ Novak has some of the greatest line deliveries of any comedian I have ever seen

Weekend Part 2:

So, the second part of the weekend....Sunday was my cousin Anna's son Orrin's first birthday. Now, I haven't been to many birthday parties for babies but I have to say this one was exceptionally awesome. Why you may ask...because I got to play with Orrin and hold him and make faces and basically bask in his gloriousness. He is a beyond delightful baby who didn't mind being passed from one relative to another. The second we left I missed him and I just wanted to steal him. I also got to hang out with my family many of whom I don't see as often as I'd like which is always fun because they're a pretty fantastic group of people that I adore, even the crazy ones. Thinking about it now, I'm just so damn happy I have a family that can get together without killing each other, it's such a nice feeling to be in a room with a group of people who have to love you. I can't wait until we all get together again and wackiness ensues. I hear there may be some sort of surprise party for my Uncle Tom on May 12th...(that's for you madre hehehe)

Why yes Orrin, you can play with my face

I look so damn smug to have the baby

After all that, I watched the Game of Thrones premiere with Jason and Hannah. It was so good! So much creepiness and nudity which I didn't need but overall it was really true to the book and I can not wait to watch the rest of the show.

That's all for now, time to watch Veronica Mars. Logan and Veronica are one of my OTP's. Love them.

(this was pretty much an excuse to brag about seeing and Conan and showing off how precious my Orrin is)
