Last week was pretty hectic. I had a big blowout that took a while to recover from. It seems like thing go along pretty steadily and then you get hit with massive emotional bombs from time to time. I am not good at being angry; I pretty much had an anger hang over from Tuesday when things were resolved probably to Saturday evening. Its just a lot for me, I am never really an angry person so when it happens it goes to the full effect. Done and done, no use harping on the matter any more.

As a result the week was pretty quiet to just kind of relax and sift through things. I watched project runway with Caitlin, Nicole and Cate on Wednesday. Got Mac and Cheese at S’mac with Sara and Becky the night before (tues). And Thursday went to food swings with David and ended up walking past Freddy Prince Jr and Chris Klein. Still trying to make up my mind on if I am excited by the B list celebrity sighting.



Friday I got home and made some plans with Eric. It’s kind of hard to get through the week but I am always excited more so for Friday afternoon because I know he doesn’t have school and will be there when I get home. We went out and got some things to have a small dinner and just relaxed with each other then. After dinner and some sitting around I went out with David to Jay’s birthday party in Williamsburg. I felt really bad, I had really only been there an hour and I just hit a wall. I was absolutely exhausted. So I said some good byes and hoped in the car to go home to bed.


Slept in Saturday morning, eventually got everything together to go to the aquarium (will post pictures tomorrow). I have been planning to go there for about 2 years now and I am glad I finally got on the train and went all the way out to Coney Island. Eric and I walked around for a bit on the boardwalk afterwards then got on the train bound for Candle 79 for a late lunch. Unfortunately we got there at 4 when they had closed for dinner prep. So we went around the corner to Candle Café and had a little dinner (since it was 5:30). Very good. I had a Cajun Setain sandwich with avocado and some dressing that I promise you could have no way been vegan it was too good. And Eric got an Indian dish; I gave him half my sandwich and ate the rest of his saffron rice and lentils. Took a nap and then met cate, heather, chad, dan, and one of dans co-workers and his girl out. I also ran into a girl I used to know in Albany from going to shows so it was nice to sit a minute and talk to her.
Sunday again slept late. Since I was so exhausted from the week it was so nice to do. (And mostly by late I mean like 930 or 10…how sad is that). Went to get some brunch with Cate and then to the red hook swimming pool with her and Eric for a bit. Made a big huge dinner after a trip to fairway and just relaxed for the rest of the evening. I had intentions to go to bed early but those didn’t happen.

So all in all busy but maybe boring.

Eric and I have been talking about going to the Maldives islands as well as Hong Kong at some point, hopefully like a year or so. I would be so excited to go. He wants to stay in this hotel on the islands where you have a cabana on the ocean and most of the floor is see–though glass. I can wait and I really hope it materializes, its just pretty much down to money at this point. More so money than time, but time off from work it also a factor. My trip to South Africa is getting closer. I am looking forward to being out there and also I am a little apprehensive since things aren’t going well family wise and it is intended to be a family trip. But I just hope to go and have a good time.

I will hopefully remember to post the aquarium pictures tomorrow
