Cinco De Mayo

Anddd now I have cinco de hangover. 4 Margaritas and two free shots of tequila later I was toast. Not the best idea on a Tuesday night. Today I was such a mess I went to my mum's to pick up my laundry and ended up leaving without it. Ooops.

I love that I have a little following of 21 year old boys. Justin was asking me to go to the bar with him tonight.

I swear I don't mean to do it

But I'm a cougar. HAHA. I went to the Bouncing Souls/Loved ones show Thursday and was absolutely floored. It had been so long since I'd seen either band and I got such a high on life from that show. At the end the cute boy next to me says "I have to hand out flyers after the show, come see me my name's Dustin." So in my drunken happiness I spotted him outside and gave him my number. Come to find out, he's 21. Oops. I always did say as long as he could buy me a beer I'd date em. But now my 25th birthday is upon me (1 week exactly) and I'm feeling a little cougarish for even thinking about it. Doesn't help that I made out with a 22 year old all Saturday night to boot. I never claimed that I wasn't a makeout slut. I even lost an earring.

So Thursday Souls, Friday, Saturday, Sunday Berkshires. Sunday night Alkaline Trio. Needless to say I needed today off.

I'm being observed for the first time tomorrow to see if they will approve my placement or not. Fingers crossed everything will work out ok.

last hurrahs (for a while)

So I have taken my free time and weekends to spend my time doing the funnest things possible. So far I've got to P-town, Hampton Beach, Salisbury Beach, and I'm going to the Berkshires this weekend. I've ridden a donkey, won vampire teeth, climbed on machinery, and mooned a bunch of people.

I start grad school in two weeks. Life is good.

Aww Boston

Yesterday Jenzy and Joey went into Boston with me. We went to JP and picked up Jeff and gave him a ride to work. Then we walked around for a good 4 hours. I parked in charlestown and we walked all through the North End, had a nice lunch at Cafe Osteria and then got cannolis. From two different bakeries. Modern and Mikes. I got one from each but ended up eating only one and giving the other to my mum and sister. The day before was also a road trip. Jen, Joe, Wendy, and I drove up to Hampton Beach. We had a stroll on the beach, nice seafood lunch, and fun at the arcade. Wendy and I had a match of dance dance revolution which was weak. I had a gypsy fortune telling machine steal my dollar. Then I rode a donkey ride with a barrel of tequila on the back and some random drunk guy pretended to "smack my ass." It was hilarious. After NH Wendy and I went to Worcester to see Widow Sunday play in a battle of the bands at Tammany Hall. Then we went to Pepperoncini's to see Cuban Pete play in a cover band. He was dressed in tight pants and a Hawaian shirt and had his hair slicked back. He reminded me of Fat Mike ala Me First and the Gimme Gimmes. I had a super drunk guy dance with me. I tried to give him the twirl but he wouldn't. His friends and Beeps and Wendy were cracking up the whole time. It was a crazy but fun weekend.

mini miracles

Recently Jane lost her dog Indy. She's been having a really hard time since. She tried to help get out of her depression by running. Then she was having severe pain. After an MRI she was told no more running. She left a bulletin sounding so defeated. I remembered a time when I felt the same way and I was trying to reverse my feelings, focus on the positive and force myself to be happy. She had left me a nice encouraging comment which I in turn dug up and posted to her. She created a new bulletin saying how it was a miracle to have me and others in her life. Often times when I am feeling down I look at all the mini miracles I have in my own life. I have some truly awesome friends and one of the best families I could ever ask for. I have a great job where I can help others, I was accepted into grad school and my Dad is going to help me financially. I have two awesome cats and a cute home. I am truly blessed every day with all that God has give me. Thank you to all my own mini miracles in life.

sometimes friends are all you need

After a weekend of drinking for free with Wendy (thanks Anthony) I was hoping to have a relaxing rainy Sunday. I arrived home from Wendy's with a text asking if I'd like to partake in a radnom road trip. What the hell, I thought. A quick shower and removal of metal shards in my eye (from a welded trike!) off I was. Bubba, Jenzy and I went all the way to the tip. Ptown, that is. We had a blast walking the abandoned streets. The fog was so dense you could just barely make out the tower. We saw some gays, checked out spank the monkey, ate a chocolate covered pile of marshmellows, had fish and chips, ate even more junk food, and had a blast. I ended the night by making everyone steak tips for dinner. Just when I start to feel sad I remind myself of random little fun times. I'm so glad I have my friends.

It's been a while

So since the last blog a lot has happened. My dad was in a major snowmobile accident the night of dinkstock. Sugah drove me all the way to NH to see him. What an awesome person to do that.

I have cut all ties with the latest ex who has always somehow found ways to still hurt me.

Cody joined the army and is leaving April 22nd.

I have officially been accepted into grad school and will tentatively be starting courses in May.

I may or may not have a job next year and I am sweating that out right now.

My new boss also quit mid-year which has left us with a permanent sub who is only part-time. I am no on restraint duty for MK.

I'm starting to approach my home as being content and working with what I've got without spending too much money.

Beeps wants me to move with her and I am unsure if I want to go through with that or not.

I joined watercize two times a week and I am hoping to start jogging again now that the weather is nicer.

I am going through spurts of still not caring about my appearence, and am on a rollercoaster diet. One week I'll eat super healthy all week then binge drink and get dairy queen on the weekends.

I have kept myself rather busy lately which I think is good for my mental health but as a result I am not sleeping enough which again ties into the appearence factor.

I am going to Florida with Jenzie, Melissa, and Wendy in May and I am so pumped for it.

Tonight I am taking little sis out for mani/pedi and sushi in dot/Quincy and am pumped for it.
