where do the weeks go?

I am not too sure where the weeks go. I feel like I am always writing a recap of the weekends. I suppose everyone is just working for them so that’s all that comes of interest.

Side note this week I got caught in traffic helping David move a new bed. There was all the movie stuff; little did I know they were filming spider man 3 in my own neighborhood. Swanky!

Friday- Left work early to make it home to Albany in time for my little brother’s graduation from high school. 5 1/2 hours later being stuck in every traffic nightmare you could imagine and being 1 hour late for the graduation I made it (after sprinting in heels down a about 1/4 mile) for 2 people before my brother walked across the stage. I would have been so upset if I had missed it. But I made it, literally by the skin of my teeth. It was great to see him; although we are getting closer as we get older he is still my baby brother. And family means the world. I couldn’t have missed it. I am looking forward to him coming to school in the city and maybe having the chance to get to know him more. Since we are so far in age it has been hard to do so. We are always at different points in life and kind of miss each other in the interim but I think he is am amazing kid. I just wonder sometimes if he knows that. Went to Fridays with his friends and family. Things have defiantly taken its turn withy parents. You can see the separation begin to take effect. It’s like watching someone else’s life and family and it is strange to take on a different roll in the situation. It’s never a definite understanding it’s more of an adjustment.

Saturday- took my brother to dinner at the Culinary Institute of America. AMAZING food. I have definitely developed a super huge appreciation for good cooking, thanks to Eric. It makes me excited to have him go to culinary school in the city and make me amazing food. Not that he doesn’t already. I just am super excited for him to do something he really loves to do.

Sunday- had a bbq with my family. It was hard being a super fam-oriented weekend. I was happy to see everyone but I can’t help but feel bad to keep missing people like Tommy when I go home. I guess when you don’t live somewhere it just gets harder and harder. I try my best and the most genuine intentions are always there. I just have to try harder I suppose.

Came back to Brooklyn. Added some new additions to the apartment. Its beginning to have a good feeling again. A “home” feeling. Spent the rest of the evening with Eric. Again always hard having separate schedules.

This week is already planned. I hate it sometimes when this happens but it seems to happen more often than not. Tomorrow I have dinner with my mom. Wednesday birthday dinner with Bri since I missed her real birthday on Saturday. Thursday- personal trainer and dinner with David. Somewhere in there I need some time to get my things straight. Spent the better part of tonight just in the apartment on my own cleaning and getting organized, I miss nights like this.

Missing a lot of people in the city lately, got an invitation to my old room mate from college’s graduation party in Rochester got really excited to go back and see people. Really excited. Will try my best no to leave this until Monday night again. No promises.


Congrats baby bro…
