I'm digging through Facebook these days-just to relive Hannan and my exchanges...hilarious exchanges....two of my best friends for life are in the photo above. Joey, my 2 year, didn't quite know what to make of these lovely ladies who came over everyday. He combined their names Hannan and Annette and made it one easy one~"Hon-Ette".
My house was like no other house, I must say. It had 4 bedrooms and I had 2 roommates. It so happened that one roommate was a Police Academy Kick out ("It was a contact high, I swear!" duh)...which led to many visits from real life off duty police officers (sometimes on duty-and sometimes not in the city they should have been in-on duty!) There were lots of bbqs and fun happening at almost any given time. It was the staging ground for our trips to the Long Beach Grand Prix, birthday nights in limos and trips to Palm Springs (Palm Springs is an entire blog entry on its own, and its coming soon).
 
 
Limo Night!

Huggies and Tequila=the only way to parent, just ask Joey

I LOVE this picture! FYI this child is now almost 24 and I did not harm him in anyway~I just wasn't very old when I had him.
I posted this pic on facebook with my conversation with Hannan below:

This is the House that Hannan Crashed...(and EVERYONE ELSE!)

This was the 4 bedroom house I rented on the border of Huntington Beach and Westminster. I had a 2 year old, a full time nanny and a great job making mega 80's $. I was 22. I had roomates come and go, but I always had my buds Hannan, Annette, Shirley, Chrisa, Martie (my niece who is 2 weeks younger than me)and Krispy Appel. Not all of them lived there at the same time.
It really didn't matter if I was home-I had an open door policy. I worked 10 to 10 at Holiday Spa Monday thru Thursday.
I didn't care that MY house was the center of attention! I had Joey my beautiful baby that I didn't really ever want to leave-unless it was major like Sam Kinison on New Years or a Limo ride for a Tom Petty concert...or a limo ride anywhere, like on my birthday. My house was the shiznat of the 80's. More to come...Im trying to write a eulogy for My Hannan...I want to capture memories as they come to my head.

How To Sit On a Couch~Rest In Peace My sweet friend!

This was after the Long Beach Grand Prix

I lost one of the best friends I have ever had yesterday. Out of the blue, she wasnt sick, OUT OF THE BLUE! I can't stand it that she is gone. I almost have to process this a little more before I can truly delve into this friendship and the horrible loss for so many. We lost touch and reconnected on facebook several years ago. The last 3 years of facebook exchanges have been hysterical to say the least...we discovered we were pregnant at the same time-and delivered our babies a few weeks apart....I will miss her forever and as I sort through my grief please feel free to share your funny stories about Hannan.....yes-its hard to think about Hannan without the word funny. Please leave your comments and memories below...

Please share this with Hannan fans..she would love the attention! LOL
Peace
