| - I Am Not My Hair --- SO SO HOT!!!!Long time...Since being banned from xanga because of "secure" networks, blah blah
BS, I've seemed to lose track of what my friends have been up to.
Strange how the absence of this one form of media that allows you to
keep you in the loop about your long-distance friends without hanging
out with them on a regular basis makes you miss all the little
things. I miss this little "peeping tom" window into the daily
lives of my friends... :(
Not much has been going on in my life since I last wrote. My
weeks are pretty routine, but I like the cycle that I've adopted.
Work just enough to keep pay raises and promos going, study not very
diligently and anxiously wait til Friday when I get to see and hang out
with Brian for the rest of the weekend. Sounds boring, but really
have never been happier doing just that. I'm a simple girl and
don't need much. Give me a good man, a good bottle of wine or
beer and some good food and I'm in heaven. The hardcore partying
and drinking just doesn't do it anymore for me. Every once in a
while for sure. But the recovery time is brutal. Sunday
after a long overdue HO reunion in NYC at the beginning of June was
like DEATH!
The biggest and newest news in that for all that you know me and my
sister Amy and her long time sig other, John - They are finally married
after 11 years...or is it 12? In any case, it's been the most
anticipated wedding for my family and their friends. And it
couldn't have gone off better than a surprise wedding at what they told
everyone would be just a wedding reception BBQ cause they already
eloped. So very cool! The 1st of the 3 Ho's to go.
The 2nd one will be next year. My brother is getting married this
Wednesday. And me....not for a while! In other fam news,
I'm going to be an aunt for the 3rd time. Yaay!
That's all for me. No big plans for J-4. Possibly the Cape,
but if not just chill out in NY. Wish every weekend last 5 days...

| What's the happy balance between expressing how you're feeling and
nagging? Boys have such a low tolerance of both and often
misconstrue one for the other. It's a fine fine line, but how can
you tell someone how you feel and if you don't appreciate something
when they'll take it as bitching? Do guys really want us to never
bring these types of things up? Should I just suck it up and get
over it? After almost 26 years, I still can't figure this shit
out... ARGH!

| How the hell is January already over? I swear it that just
Thanksgiving. Good weekend. Chilled on Friday, did some
errands Saturday AM. Saturday night Brian and I met up with the
Yunkers, another Fiji bro, Nick and his girl, Christina who live out in
N. Brunswick. Early dinner, which meant after 3-4 bottles of
wine, hold 'em, beer and scotch us old headz were done and in bed by
midnight! Man...seriously getting OLD! Kind of funny
though. The measure of our drunkness was clearly exemplified when
Christina's boy suddenly disappeared and later discovered that the only
bathroom in the apartment was locked and Nick was passed out inside!
Lounged all day Sunday and threw in a little J. Roberts and Cameron
Diaz in My Best Friend's Wedding and Hugh Grant in Love Actually.
Back to work. I hate Mondays. Have serious lack of
motivation lately. All I've been wanting to do is sleep all week
and hang out all weekend. Already looking forward to this
weekend. Although, does anyone really give a shit about the
superbowl? I mean I guess I'll root for the Steelers..but have
just about non-existent interest in it.
On the other hand, I'm super excited for the Sanaa Lathan's Something
New to come out! The trials and tribulations of an interracial
relationship...that's my shit! Plus Simon Baker plays the guy in
it and he's playing a landscape architect like my boy (which is lucky
for me cause now he's actually interested in it too). Wish
tomorrow was Friday....

| A little delayed on the weekend recap. It's been a busy week and
I've too lazy to write. Keeping this xanga thing up can be
hard. With all the fabulous pages out there and all. But
for me it's just a way for me to log the things that have happened
since I don't keep a hard journal or anything.
I digress... so Friday Nicole and Brook came down and met up with me
and Bri to head out to the Celts v. Sixer game. Sick game -
triple overtime, my boys lost but it was a tight game. Mad
respect for Kyle Korver. Ricky D played a ridiculous game and my
boy Paul Pierce played decent too but a little disappointing with only
17 points on the board. Hung out in Philly with some old headz
from LFG. Saturday went to the Body Worlds exhibit. Very
cool. Watched the skins get beat and then had a ridiculous dinner
at this quaint little BYO Mexican joint (Lolita). Veal
cheeks...MMM!! Bri and I got caught in the unforeseen snowstorm
heading back in my little sport car. Took fricken 2 hours at 15
mph to get from Philly to NJ. Thank goodness I was in the best
company! Sunday lazed around until we were so famished.
Motivated ourselves to grab some diner food and then spent the rest of
the day watching football and ABC Sunday night TV. Grey's Anatomy
is soo good!
Freaking one of the only people I know that had to work on Monday and
be disrespectful to Dr. King. Been a long week and I'm dying for
it to over already. Heading up to NY this weekend. Possibly
to the city. Playing it by ear I guess. Have been sick of
partying lately and needing a weekend to not have anything to do but
chill.
Boston next weekend to bid farewell to my niece (moving to France)... :(
