// Amy’s Musings » Let Me Check My Schedule…

Soooo, tonight Mike and I went to BJ’s Brewhouse. We tried a few different beers ( I am TOTALLY getting into beers now, uh, microbrewery beers, to be exact.) and basically hung out and relaxed. It’s an odd occurrence for us because typically, our “relax time” is after the kids have gone to bed. And, as we all know, Maggie is a freakin’ night owl.

Annnyywayyy, we hung out at BJ’s for about an hour and then we came home. Of course, by the time we came home the beers were settling in and I really needed to… uhm, hug my chinchilla. So, I brought Sophie on out so we could shop online together and have mommy and chin bonding time.

We hung out and had a really good time until she realized that I was taking pictures. She has a no picture clause in her contract.

This is Sophie saying, “No pictures! No comment!!” She likes to pretend that her entire life is a horrific, gossip page scandal.

See, this is Sophie recreating the “shark incident” from last summer:

and this is Sophie recreating her drinking contest win from last Labor Day.

Not bad for someone who wasn’t even a year old yet, huh?

And this is Sophie completely fed up with me spending more time on my blog than shopping online with her…

It must be very hard being a Chinchilla Socialite. Don’t you think?

I love BJ’s and wish they were over here. Some of their sandwiches are awesome, and their cookie dessert was delicious!

Oh, and Sophie’s so cute!

Joefish says:

Ok, Sophie is as cute as a button, but I can’t get past you “hugging your chinchilla.”

Amy says:

Angel - Thank you… and me too!! :martini:

Avi - Kate loves their turkey club, actually, I do too. It’s soooo good! Last weekend we did try the cookie dessert. OMG! That was amazing!!!

And, thank you! I think she’s pretty cute too!

Joe - You can’t get over me hugging my chinchilla or the fact that it’s not a euphemism for something else?

Miss B - ROTFLMAO dork. :heartbeat:

Marti says:

Hi sweetie! Still trapped in grandma’s house - got just a minute to myself to stop in and say hi! Miss you so much! Love the new design!

Squeeeeee! She is SO CUTE!

My kitties would LOOOOOOVE to “play” with a chinchilla. :eyebrow: They have a DVD (don’t judge) of different animals bopping around the screen and their favorite BY FAR is the chinchilla. Favorite as in they’d like to attack it and make it not jump. Yeah.

But she sure is cute. :hug:

Crazy Lady says:

Sophie is truly a doll. I love her long whiskers. But then, long whiskers are what all the sexy chinchillas are sporting this year, isn’t it? :love:

Amy says:

Marti - I figured grandma was keeping you chained to her computer! :sad:

KG - Unfortunately, Sophie would love to play with your kitties. She has no common sense and doesn’t know a stranger or an enemy.

Crazy Lady - Oh yes… loooong whiskers and big eyes, it is all the chin rage!

I’ve been trying to get into microbrews but I can’t really make it past pilsner or hefeweizen

Amy says:

I had an Irish Red Ale last night that was amazing. And, an American-style brown ale that absolutely rocked my socks.

Sometimes you can find microbreweries that have samplers. Those are a blast and a great way to find new beers you might like. I do love a good Hefeweizen though, and I am absolutely in love with Sam Adams Octoberfest. It’s soooo good.

geek says:

I LOVE the microbrews! If you get the chance try an Abita Pecan Harvest. Its a very smooth red.

Amy says:

Oooo, that sounds GOOD. I swear, I’m getting so addicted at this point that I’m almost tempted to turn this into a microbrew blog. :whistle:

Megan says:

So really what does Sophie buy on-line???

Amy says:

Apple logs. Lots and lots of apple logs.
