Weekend was great!!
Yawn. I’m tired today.
My weekend was fantastic. Friday after work I headed into the city. I took the subways to Grand Central and then was on my way to Connecticut to see Drew. I was so proud of myself because I figured everything out myself. It was actually very easy. The city can sometimes seem like a big, bad and scary place but if you just read the signs and you ask people for help, it’s not that big of a deal. Anyway, Drew picked me up at the train station in Milford and then we went to the mall to visit some of his friends. While there, I picked up some hair products and such to leave at his house for when I visit. It’s annoying traveling with so much crap. We went to his house, had some of his home made chili and played poker. It was a ten dollar buy in and when I cashed out I ended up with 23 bucks. I did pretty good for myself =P
On Saturday Drew had work all day long. I went downstairs after he had left for work and had some coffee and breakfast while making conversation with his mom. After breakfast we changed and went to The Christmas Tree Shop. It was fun! I got some key chains and a cute kitchen sign for my mom. For me I bought salt water taffy. I left the taffy at his place though simply because I didn’t want to travel with the box =P She even treated me to lunch at On The Border which was really sweet. Drew was nervous we weren’t going to get along but it was fine. That night we went to his friend Mellies house. She just finished breast feeding so she’s able to drink now and wanted to have a “drinking party”. And boyy, did I drink! I was stupid about it though. The last thing I had eaten was at 3pm and that was at lunch. Not good. Mellie and I had a great time together. We talked on the kitchen floor, drank, took fun pictures. It was a pretty crazy night. I ended up getting sick though. That’s not fun. I didn’t like that. That was an amateur mistake to not eat anything. Gotta slow it down. Stop getting crazy.
Sunday was spent lounging in bed all day long. We watched Man vs. Food most of the day which is a pretty entertaining show. He cooked me breakfast and then his dad made dinner at the end of the night. Lean pork chops, potatos and corn. MMmm!! It was delicious! Around 6pm I caught the train home and arrived at about 9pm. Not bad. On the train there was this mother and daughter sitting behind me arguing. The mother was saying “Why are you such a whore? You go around sleeping with men in cars. You’re sluttier then any friends that you may have. You don’t even have many friends. You’re disgusting.” All the while the girl is crying. She was probably 15 or 16 years old. I understand that it’s your business but really though.. to lay all of this out for the entire train to hear? That’s so tactless and I wanted to say something. Awful. The woman sitting next to me got off at the same stop and said “Thank God.” when we got up. Heh. Then I was off to Ashleys house to watch True Blood. GOOD episode. Things are getting intense on that show!
Work was good today. Can’t complain. Afterwards I went to the food store for dinner and then to the bank to deposit my paycheck. I’m home now and just finished paying a few bills. I’m enjoying a cup of coffee and watching some TV too. Think I may settle down and read some too.
This week is going to be so busy. for me. I have work tomorrow from 9 - 4 and then I have to come home, do laundry and pack for Wednesday. Around 8pm I’m heading to Ashleys house for poker and a few videos. Wednesday I have work until 5pm and around 6:30pm I’m heading into the city and into CT until Sunday. I’m so psyched on it. When Drew picks me up we’re heading to Foxwoods so I’m REALLY excited. Gonna mess around on five dollar tables. Play some slots and maybe get a little lucky. We’ll see.. =) Thursday we’re meeting up with Shannon and Dave for a little while and then off to the bar with a couple of Drews friends. We don’t have anything planned during the day on Friday but in the evening we’re getting dressed up and going out to a nice dinner and a movie probably. Saturday I’m going to hang out with his friend Ashley, most likely. Maybe go shopping or something. Sunday will probably be a lazy day for the both of us before I have to be sent off on the train. Overall, I’m super excited to spend so many days with him in a row =)
Haven’t weighed myself in about week. Last I weighed in it was before TOM and it was 160.0. Blech. Yucky number. Can’t imagine it’s any better what with the drinking from the past weekend. I need to be more careful. I need to slow down. Drinking is okay in small amounts. I’m not drinking NEARLY as much as I was in the beginning of the year but it’s unncessary to binge drink like I’ve been doing. It’s okay to go to a party, have a few drinks and leave it at that.. =/ So.. yeah, enough about that.
I’m off to relax, read and then cook dinner. Have a good day, girls.

Glad you’re getting around just fine with the new method of transportation! I’m the same way, I ask people if I don’t get something.

Good that you feel more comfortable getting around the city. Sounds like a fun time w/ Drew and his family and friends. Re the drinking - I heard a sports guy on the radio saying that some football player lost a bunch of weight when he stopped drinking tequila, lol. Here’s the address for a story: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/football/nfl/08/02/white.tequila.ap/index.html Must have been a lot of it. Liquor does have a lot of calories, that’s for sure - especially the hard stuff and those sweet mixed drinks.
Enjoy your next trip to CT!
