When it rains it pours

This shall be a verbal diarrhea post as lately it seems I'm surrounded with sadness, after an amazing week. Isn't that always the case? What goes up must come down.

Dinner w/ Keri & Lauren on Wednesday was lovely & long overdue. The caribbean french toast was good, but I would def branch out & try other things if we went there again.

Court on Thursday was a shitshow. Not a seat in the house & all the creatures came out of the woodwork to plea bargain, including a deaf woman who while plea bargaining admitted to a misdemeanor, which is a charge she never had even after the DA repeatedly asked her if she's sure and knows she is admitting to a misdemeanor she wasn't charged with before coming to court haha. My DA was fab and cut the cost of my ticket in half so I was pleased. Then I drove to Took's, lounged around w/ the pets, him, & Hannah, went grocery shopping which was a bizarro experience b/c for w/e reason EVERYONE in the store kept looking at us funny, hasn't anyone ever seen 2 tall white people with very large heads shop before? d= Then we went home and prepared a scrumptious feast of tomato & cucumber salad, garlic bread, & spinach & cheese tortellini in a creamy spinach sauce. We watched Religulous which I have been wanting to see for a long time and I really enjoyed it. Tooker boozed me up well so I had no choice but to stay with him! hehe

Friday I head to Oneonta, had a lovely bfast w/ Mackey, Bunk, Alysa, & Erin Gray at the fancy schmancy new coffee shop Capresso's (owned by the Mama Nina's monopoly). It's really classy, employees wear dress shirts & ties, behind the counter is a homestyle kitchen where they prepare everything so it's like you're at home but not, the only off part about the experience is the employees handing you your fancy "Snow White" drink in a hardcore Brooklyn accent haha. I putzed around the rest of the day, went bra shopping (apparently I'm a 38DD, good golly), got a cute vest & capris, then went to dinner at Mama Nina's with the girls. Here's a pic of some of us being silly willy's

After dinner I head to campus to finally meet up with Cassie for Tim's MuscleMan show. It was far more fun than I expected and I got to see Danika and cheer on her not so little brother and bf, watch some hotties and some fools like this clumsy long haired idiot who just kept spinning his hair heavy fuckin metal style (I think Dean would behave this way if he ever performed in a competition like this which he wouldn't so no worries haha). A 59 year old woman even competed and she was a total badass. Here's some pics


Saturday I woke up with a vice around my head (aka the absolute worst onset of a sinus infection I've ever had in my 5 years of bimonthly sinus infections). The combo of being around smokers, Took's pets, and Franky Bax

did me in. I dragged my ass around and got ready, got meds from the clinic, then faked it till I could make it the rest of the day feeling like death run over. The girls decided to have a spontaneous bbq so I went there for a bit which was humorous and fun. Here's a pic of Cait & Hackford eating with eagerness

I then met up with Cassie and Tim at their place, went to her cousin's Patty's Day party for a bit, where I met the most wretched woman I've encountered in a very long time who was Emily's boss at Hartwick. One of those jaded old fashioned student affairs people who should have retired from life a long time ago. Needless to say we didn't stay too long. Then we lounged some more and I rested up before hitting the road to East Greenbush to drink till I couldn't feel how sick I was for the birthday bonanza in honor of Colin and his slew of other friends who all happen to be born in March. I had an absolute blast once we left Lionsheart which is always crowded with crappy service, and this time was no better as I had an awkward Oneonta reunion with Grims, my freshman year neighbor frat idiot, and another annoying old resident. Once we went the Bomber's the night made a significant turn for the better. Glorious times. Here's some pics

The dudes (minus Evan)



The ladies (minus Lauren)




Sunday Colin and his sister made us a yummy bfast then I head home to CT to organize my life, catch up with roomie, and do hw. I was elated with joy to come home to a whole new roomie with all sorts of exciting news, the highlight being she bought the condo of her dreams and has a home to live in when I graduate. YAYAYAYAYA. That night Mary and I had our weekly old lady Price Chopper date, which while walking into the store I obviously got hit on by 2 ghetto dudes next to a hoopty van despite me looking like a train wreck. Of course.

Monday was a crazy day back at work as the whole world went home for break and had all sorts of realizations/talks with parents so they came in for walk-ins. By the end of the day I was ready to pass out and had no voice from being sick and also talking all day, winged my presentation for my class, and I think rocked it anways haha. Then I got home and got sidetracked from doing my next paper b/c I was helping Roey with her resume forever but we're both very happy with the final product, and dealing with other friend troubles. <3

St. Patty's Day blew. I woke up feeling very sick, and it just got worse until lunch then I felt fine the rest of the day. I got home and made my pathetic excuse for a St. Patty's Day dinner (brussel sprouts and mashed sweet potatoes) only to find we were out of mustard, so I went on a mad hunt while my dinner got cold, and it took 4 stores to get mustard that wasn't yellow and disgusting (yellow mustard should cease to exist as a condiment). When I got home I got the worst phone call I've got in a long time. Needless to say that is all that has been on my mind since then and I can't really focus at all. I can't wait to spin my sorrows away tonight with Rita.


To all my friends who are going thru rough patches right now I love you with every fiber of my being.
