Anthropologie coming to Memphis

I have heard this before, but saw from a few different other people online - Anthropologie is coming to Memphis! Well, Germantown - into the Saddle Creek shopping center. I've become a big fan recently, so this is cool.

Probably without the palm tree, however :)

Lost dog in High Point Terrace area

This dog was also found, in the High Point Terrace area. This dog is obviously lost - you don't see many itty bitty foo foo strays :) If you know anyone who has lost this dog, please contact the people below...

I just found this small, brown dog a few minutes ago on Summer Avenue between N. Graham and Highpoint Terrace. It was traveling with a male boxer. When I pulled over to get their attention, the boxer ran off and this small dog jumped into my car. I have 4 other dogs that do not get along with small dogs like this. He/she is in a cage in my garage. Please pass this email along. Thanks! Jennifer Owens (901) 832-7175

Dog found in South Main area

Cross posting this from Memphistanista's blog.... a dog was found in the South Main area. VERY cute dog, some may have lost this guy, he doesn't appear to be a an obvious stray. If you know where his owner may be or if you'd like to keep this dog for yourself, please contact the people at the address below.

"There has been a stray dog around S. Main probably not for too long but at least a week. My wife spotted her last night in the lot next to Harry's Detour and was able to get her to come over. She was a little timid but was obviously a people lover, not a born stray. She almost immediately offered up her belly, and took to a leash immediately. Our friend Mikey took her in last night and cleaned her up, got her fed and safe, and now we're trying to spread the word and find this little girl a home or reunite her with her original owners."

For sale - AG jeans, J Crew matchstick jeans & women's pique polo

I put a few items for sale on Ebay today, seen here.

AG Jeans - plum corduroy

Bought here in Memphis at the Isabella boutique. I love the color, just too big for me now.

J. Crew matchstick jeans

These are too big for me now, which is upsetting. The color is no longer made, nor are the capri style. They are awesome jeans.

J. Crew NWT women's classic polo

New with tags, never worn. I bought it but never worked it into my wardrobe. Great classic shirt.

Halloween parties/costumes and South Main Trolley Tour

The montly South Main Trolley Tour is tomorrow night. I'll be attending a Halloween party downtown, on North Main actually, so I am hoping to make it to the trolley area beforehand. That is, if it's not storming out - like it is supposed to be doing nonstop thru Saturday :/ The Trolley Tour goes rain or shine, 6-9pm, the last Friday of every month. The stores stay open late, and most of the art galleries and stores have free wine and snacks. The weather is supposed to be warm enough, so if the rain stays away, I think there will be a good crowd.

I actually made up a costume this year for Halloween, which I never do. A party Friday night, and one Saturday (waaaay out in what Memphistanista would probably call the Ridiculous Far Far Far East of Memphis - see her wonderful city map here), so actual things to do for once! I am hoping to hand out some candy at the house Saturday before we leave, too. I know there are a lot of kids in the neighborhood...although I rarely see them. Of course, I'm usually never home til 7pm or later. My costume this year will look something along the lines of this, only less whore-y.

What is everyone else dressing up as? Anything creative? I am bad at picking out costumes, so I'm always interested in hearing what other people do.

Grizzlies home opener

(image outside the Forum before the game)

Despite feeling like poo, I had a good time at the Grizzlies game last night. I've always been a "sickly" person, but rarely am I actually sick enough to call into work. I guess I have a shut up and deal with it type of mentality, plus I hate sitting at home all day. It's currently 12:30pm and I already want to rip my hair out, I'm so bored. I'd go outside, but it's storming out (I know, in Memphis?! No way!! *eyeroll*)

But I'd been looking forward to the Grizzlies game for so long, I wasn't going to miss it. Went to Bluefin beforehand for some sushi, I like the place but I prefer any other of Jimmy Ishi's places in town. The couches/beds at Bluefin annoy me. You can't eat sushi while laying on a bed, sorry. Unpossible.

Triple Six Mafia did a little song before the game, which was short but cool. The crowd was really into the game...until the game got underway. Then the Grizzlies started sucking it up like usual, and people became less interested. It's hard to stay excited about a game when your home team performs so, so poorly. Not just losing - but performing like a high school squad. It was fun nontheless though. Will be going again many times this season, hopefully!

Already, V.S.?

Victoria, come on. It's just now starting to get cold in 2009. But 2010 summer swim wear is already online?? It's like cars now, bikinis start coming out a season/year ahead of time.

Grizzlies Opening Night - Tonight!

Opening Night!

Tonight is opening night of the Memphis Grizzlies' season! I bought tickets a while back, and I'm so excited to go.

What I'm not excited about - getting sick! I felt bad yesterday, went to the doctor today. I'm feeling a little better...I will not miss this game! Just have to take it easy I suppose.

While the Grizzlies are (still) a pretty crummy team, I wish the city would be more supportive of them. Take a lesson from Cubs fans - just because the team sucks, you can still support them and come out to the games. It's fun, good food, the arena is top-notch, and so what if they win or lose? it's still a great time. Tickets are very, very cheap too. Of course they have expensive courtside seats, but you can still get into the games for $5. !!

Allen Iverson is new to the team this year. I'm pretty sure he's not playing tonight, he got hurt a few weeks ago, but it's still something new and refreshing for the team.

Tonight the team is debuting a new uniform, in the color "Beale Street Blue," and will be giving away free similar t-shirt to the first 10,000 fans tonight:

And what could be better - the pre-game concert is none other than Memphis' own Triple Six Mafia :) Here's a shot of Juicy J and DJ Paul with Paris Hilton - haha.
