Long Islands - A Good Way To Start the Weekend
A fun weekend, albeit not the most productive.
After work Rene and I stopped by YB. Well, not really YB, we actually stopped by Mr. Smokescrackalot's alley way, but the effect was the same. After that we headed on over to some yuppie-ass bar in the financial district for a required work happy hour. Bossman was caught up with server issues so he gave me cash and told me to hold down the fort. Clearly my interpretation of that was: "Long Islands for everyone!" So, we forced the intern and the new kid to get Long Islands and then after that there was enough peer pressure to persuade everyone. I got trashed (yay! my first work event I got trashed at...despite working here for over a year!) and most people did too (Shit bossman even said to me "Kiddo - you're in charge next week!) After happy hour, Rene and I walked Rabbit back to Market, stopping at YB again on the way. When I got home I took TJ for a walk, more she walked me as I was in one sorry ass state. Then I sat down to play with her for "just a minute" and then it was Saturday morning.
Saturday I putzed around until it was time to give blood. Now, I hate to hate on an organization like the Blood Center - but I had an appointment for 1 and they made me wait an hour and a half. It's like, what's the point of making an appointment? I understand why they wouldn't want to dissuade any walk-ins, but damn, put them at the bottom of the list. I was considering walking out, but that made me feel like a babykiller or something. Anyway, they finally took my blood and I stumbled home to rest. Saturday night Di took me on a proper date: dinner and a movie. Dinner was yummy, the movie was pretty lame. But at least it was nice to be treated like a lady.
On Sunday I went to Stern Grove to check out the opera. I tried to kill as many birds with one stone as possible and so I managed to hang out with Jamie and Melissa (it was their brilliant idea, to be honest,) Mandy, Court, Rene and Elyse all at once. PHEW - what a social load off. The opera was very cool, but I was distracted by other things. After the opera Mandy, Elyse and Court headed back to my house. Where I realized my computer is broken. Maybe. I have to wait until Chas is back to really sort things out...damn that sucks. Jesse says it's a "sin virus" or basically karma for ripping and burning...but what does Jesse know? Stupid jew face. (Incidentally, it's a well known fact that Jesse only reads his friends' blogs to see if they have a shout out to him somewhere. I wonder if "Stupid jew face" will count as a shout out. Incidentally, that's a well known nickname of Jesse's - it's not like I'm making it up.) I finally kicked my guests out around 8:30 and then tried to do something about my shithole of an apartment. But not that much. Then I sat down to my read my new book (free! from a bar!) and passed out.
Weekends are going too fast. Actually, the older I get, the faster time is going period. It's August, people, August!
August!

Stupid Jew Face is a total shout out. Anyone who tells you otherwise is... well, a stupid jew face.
in fairness, his face isn't the only thing stupid or jew about him.
i haven't given him a shout out in many moons, so i doubt he bothers with mine anymore.
