updates

So... let's catch up. I miss you! It's been so long! I don't even know where to begin. Well, work is good. I have one problem, but it's with a parent, and it's an ongoing saga. I'm trying to get it taken care of, but unfortunately, most of the situation is out of my control. Ugh. Also, the kids are in desperate need of a snow day, and the Archdiocese completely dropped the ball. As I'm sure you've already heard, they decided to open schools on Friday when the rest of the tri-state area used their brains and stayed closed. And THEN... in an act of supreme genius... they decided (at 10 AM) to give us a noon dismissal. So it was a complete waste of a day.

As far as social life goes... I've been out and about. I celebrated Tim's 30th birthday twice: once at Moriarity's and once the following week at Tim's house, where we played board games well into the night. Last weekend, Karen came to Philly, so a bunch of us met up at Out of Wack Jack's, which turned out to be bad idea. It's gotten very clubby lately. After only about half an hour, we relocated to the Ashburner. That has become one of my favorite places to hang out. I never have a bad time there. Karen and Dooner wound up leaving not long after we got there, so I hung out with Rich, Heather and Joe until they kicked our sorry drunk asses out of the bar, lol. Good times, as always.

This past Friday, John hosted a Martha Stewart themed party, complete with delicious homemade food. When Sam and I first got there, there were about 10 people already there... and we were the ONLY girls. And the only straight people. Although Miguel tried to convince us that there were two straight men in the room. I drove myself crazy trying to figure out who they were... and failed miserably. I never did find out who they were. Or maybe I did, I don't remember. Doesn't matter, I met a bunch of great people and had a BLAST.

Yesterday I was in the mood for some company. I had beer left in the fridge and a ton of DVDs in the apartment. I figured it would be a cheap and fun way to spend the night. So I texted some people to see if anyone was free... but sadly, two people were busy and one never bothered to text me back. I wound up working on my scrapbook and watching the end of "Guys and Dolls" on PBS. Wooo-hoo.

I just discovered that BBC America is playing "Dancing with the Stars" from like two seasons ago. I get to watch Drew Lachey win all over again, yay! Right now, Michael Buble is performing. Dreamy! That man has one smooth voice. I wanna pour a glass of red wine and curl up on the couch (aka - futon) listening to Buble jazz it up. But sadly, I have work to do.

So I guess that brings us up to date. Until next time, dear friends.
