Getting there

Okay, I have to admit. I'm getting kind of excited about this whole mediterranean cruise.
Yes, it's a cheesy touristy way of seeing Italy. Fine, I agree it is. That still doesn't take away the fact that I will be gone for 2 whole weeks and getting fat on a giant floating city while visiting other cities. woohoo!

I'll be on a 6pm flight that should arrive in Paris by 8am...then onto Barcelona where I'll be boarding

yay!

Smile Like You Mean It

Swamped at work - yes I left at 8pm tonight. That will be the first of many nights I'll be leaving so late.

I've never had a better week in so many months... Because I don't have to see Evil HR Catbert - that's my new moniker for her... It suits her well. 3 blissful weeks away from her...it's almost as good as the thought of going on vacation =)

Applewood - one of the best little things about my neighborhood. Had dinner with Jazz as a treat for rescuing her ataw key 3 months ago. She's so wise - oh yoda - and such a calming albeit hilarious person to be around. It helps a lot to know that someone went through what I'm going through now...and to know that this isn't my fault.


Back to my vacation - so here it is folks. I'll be in (in this order):
Barcelona
Nice
Pisa
Florence
Naples
Venice ...Venice
Croatia - Dubrovnik
Greece - Corfu
Rome
Barcelona

I can smell the europeans now... oh dear

playing catch-up

Yummy korean food in k-town last night with the girls.

HaVi's jetlagged and 6 hours ahead on us. Pauline is pissed off at her non-english speaking intern who doesn't know where 'a' is on the keyboard. Felt great to play catch-up with the both of them. It's funny how we're all now living in NY together, yet we can barely find the time to hang out with each other.

I feel like I hang out with the frisbee crew more because they all live so close by. If Pauline, Havi, Tony and everyone else were just as close I would probably be spending more of my time with them.

Distance does make a heart grow fonder - but makes you all the more lazier as well

just bee?



recap
Labor Day weekend was great. Big bro and Jen rolled into town and finally got the chance to bring them out to ps1 . They had so much fun, it's great to have NYC all to yourself. Everyone goes away for the weekend and it's one of the few weekends in NY where it's empty and you feel like you have all the room in the world to walk around



Hit up Fire Island for one last beach trip of the season. Got wiped out by other frisbee crews competing in the sand. Which I honestly didn't mind too much, meant more time lounging around on the sand and doing nothing. Doing nothing is so good.

I was supposed to go all out on saturday night and celebrate a friend's bday. But I couldn't bring myself to do it. Why? 1) I have to be honest, I didn't really want to go 2) dead ass tired from being out all day and working my ass off all week to get ready for vacation

Still .. sad excuse of a friend I am for bailing out that night. I should have gone, even if I didn't want to go.


well... at least I have a few more days and I'll be outta here! Woohoo!

multi-purpose

multi-purpose nalgene's strike again at ps1. At least time the vodka infused bottle was finished off.

Last ps1 of the season. It's so sad to see such an awesome summer slowly coming to an end. Still have a couple more weeks to go before comp season starts at work. I've finally gotten used to working 9 hour days. It's gonna hurt real bad to go back to 12 hr days again.

2 more weeks till the cruise!

6 weeks!

DONE

Doctors really need to realize that leaving a patient in the room for more than 5 minutes will really freak a person out. I went into work friday morning with the intent of keeping my mind off of the procedure. Those 20 mins waiting in the room for them to start killed off any false sense of bravado I had managed to build up

It was fairly fast..not entirely painless. I think the worse part of this ordeal is knowing that I cannot have sex for 6 weeks. yes. 6 weeks

sigh
