Dear readers, this is what my life has come to... scrubbing my toilet and folding laundry on a Saturday night. WTF. I am in my prime and this is how I spend a Saturday night? The nicest stomach I will ever have, the nicest ass I will ever have, the most fun I will ever be, and I sit home in a pair of sweats at my computer. See... I knew I should have kept looking for a part time job on the weekends so as to prevent this type of boredom!
I mean I had some fun on Thursday night this week, and that ended very badly (I won't go into details). I also had lots of fun on Monday night, and that too ended badly (again, I CAN'T go into details...). I will say that I met some really cool and interesting people, but I really need to control myself. Jesus. Will I ever learn my limit???? I mean, I technically know my "limit" but sometimes it is fun to push it a little ;) especially when fun people and fun situations and fun places are involved... oh well. I won't tell you about my rebel antics, I'll let you guess what fun things I may or may not have been up to ;)
Sometimes I don't even know who I am anymore. The shit that I do on a regular basis I never would have imagined myself doing a few years ago... who am I??? (<---- said in manner of Derek Zoolander staring into the puddle at his reflection). Oh well. It's a fun ride, even if the consequences of my actions make me doubt my future and leave me in emotional turmoil. Maybe it isn't a fun ride seeing that statement... actually, perhaps it is good that I'm sitting here bored out of my fucking mind instead of getting wasted and emotional.
FML.
My party earlier this month was a success I think.... It was really fun and I think that the people who came enjoyed themselves. I definitely have enough liquor left over for a few more parties seeing as how we bought $400 worth of liquor and wine at cost... I'm talking $6 bottles of bubbly and $2 bottle of rose. Needless to say I haven't made a trip to the wine or liquor store in the last few weeks following my party ;) However, my c*nty building manager wrote me a nice email informing me that one of my guests left a bottle of wine in the elevator... and asked me if I wanted to watch the video surveillance so that I could identify which guest it was. What a fucking c*nt. I should post a copy of the email she sent... it is so offensive and ridiculous. Then again, this is the same bitch that sent me an email on a rainy day and asked me to move my umbrella from the hallway where I left it to drip-dry into my apartment... what a psycho.
JULY 5th, 2am
Dear readers, I'm back from a blissful trip upstate with my boyfriend and a couple of friends. I wish I was still there...
This was the view from the tower of the place we rented... fucking amazing. I am in LOVE with airbnb.com. Here a more photos of the place... it was on a mountain with tons of woods surrounding it and an awesome deck and hot tub... https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/776525?s=aVj0 I wanted to convince the owner to let me live there for the next month or two and renovate the place- I wouldn't even charge her; she could just let me stay for free and provide me with wine and cheese.... Oh well, I'm back in the city now. Time to start planning my next trip before the NYC insanity sets back in... Lord help me and my boyfriend and my friends and my family....
Anyhow... despite the fact that we were only there for a few days, the trip was great and exactly what I needed to unwind. We did a lot of grilling ( I consumed upwards of 10 hotdogs over the course of two days), explored the town, watched the USA soccer match with the locals in a little bar, hung out in the hot tub, and consumed far too much alcohol. We even invited a random local back to hang out with us... it was too fun. I think I need a good, solid month of that type of lifestyle. I am so chill and nice to be around when I'm not working at the job I hate or dealing with city life and all of the stress that goes with it.
I cannot believe how fast this past year has flown by... it's incredible. Today is the one year anniversary of the first date with my boyfriend... the most epic date in history (I like to think so anyhow... it sure is the best date I ever had). In honor of this epic occasion, I will give you a brief history of the events/circumstances leading up to this date.
I had a major crush on my boyfriend for months before he asked me out. When he finally asked me on a date, I couldn't believe that it was real life. Well, as you all know from previous entries, we used to work together. Back then, I was a server in addition to doing late-night door hostessing. We were set to go on this date on July 5th. The night before our first date, which was last July 4th, Highline hosted a Verboten party and I was serving. I became incredibly intoxicated along with one of my friends since the party was relatively boring and the bartender kept giving us shots. By the end of the night, all hell broke loose and though I won't go into details (for all of our sakes), I acted the fool. I remember being in a cab on the way home at like 6:30am (those parties went until 5/6am), and the sun was up and it was already hot as fuck outside. I got home to my apartment and proceeded to order a large burger and fries which I half-devoured before throwing the rest to my then-foster-cats.
When I woke up around 11am, I found the half eaten burger, had the spins, and could still taste the Jameson on my breath. I felt disgusting and then the panic of what I had said/done the night before set in. I was pretty sure that in addition to not wanting to go out with me after seeing me in my drunken state the night before, that my boyfriend was also probably going to fire me since I was drunk at work. Alas, he texted me a few hours later and we met up around 5pm for a drink at the Gansvoort hotel rooftop before going on a sailboat cruise down the Hudson. The date lasted about 15 hours and I still smile thinking about it.
It feels like we've only been dating a few months even though today officially makes it a year... it's been a great year in my life- I've done a lot of new things, gone on a lot of adventures, learned a lot about myself, learned a lot about other people, and had way more fun than I probably should have- JK, one can NEVER have too much fun ;)
