The Act.
The Man and I live in the strangest city.
From where I sit...literally...I am overhearing the faux cheers and applause of a casting session for a
movie that may or may not get scrapped before it even sees the light of day.
An actress, known best for leather unitards and royal diaries sits in the next room. Her hard exterior gives way to the slight cracks that only one can see if they are reeeeally looking...gaping as most do. She is just a little girl; slight in stature at best; vulnerable yet guarded all at the same time.
Sort of like Lady Los Angeles herself.
L.A. often times just seems like one giant costume change.
Fads come and go. People are loved and hated all in the course of one weekend.
We are transient in every way.
And want to know the worst part of it all?
I find that my demeanor has changed too today. Suddenly, I find it harder to make eye contact. My laughter, slightly more nervous.
Suddenly I care simply because someone...or culture...tells me I should.
Costumes and masks. Smoke and mirrors.
We all act.
Some of us just get paid for it.
The Manliest
Welp. It's Official.
The Man is off to be....well, a man.
...In the woods...doing...uhh manly stuff?
Its the men's retreat this weekend, and I am so happy that my hubs is getting some much needed time and relaxation.
Us wives will be here at home.
Battle of the sexes y'all!
Here's to the manliest man I know.

A Terry Goodbye
Last night we waved a tearful Bon Voyage to our dearest Michelle Terry as she departs on the biggest adventure of her life thus far.
It seems quite fitting to watch what God is currently doing in all of our lives. In so many ways, we have all grown-up together. We've been infants together, and watched as God has matured us each one by one.
Almost two years ago to the day, we created what we lovingly refer to as "The Family"
...sans any Mob ties...
when we all took a trip up to Seattle to visit my now adored husband while he was away at school. The Man and I had just begun dating, and this marked the first trip I was making to see him
(....with an entourage in tow...)
It was one of the best trips I have ever taken.
Here's a photo from that time
And two years later, here we are
I have mentioned before, and I will say it 1,000,000,000 again, I have the BEST friends I never imagined possibly existed.
Michelle is off to Israel and then to Haiti...and we couldn't be more proud of our sister.
Here are some snaps for her goodbye party last night.
We love you Michelle.
XO
The Schorrs
A quick photo right before the ceremony. Both were blindfolded and placed back to back.
Neither saw each other prior to their vows.
