Obsession


I love EBay. It's like shopping aaaand a game. Except when you lose, you save money. I don't even want to say what I'm bidding on so I can protect it.

Bow chica bow wowww

So I didn't exactly accomplish everything I set out to do today but oh well, I guess its a good thing I do nothing with my life and have tons of spare time.
I ended up going to get gas, sitting in the gas station for 5 minutes then getting fed up and finally went inside and was asked if anyone was even working. I am an idiot and there was a man sitting in the little booth. I didn't see him, he didn't see me. And the stupid minimum wage toxic fuel breather made me pull up instead of walking his lard ass 8 feet to my car.
I picked up my dry cleaning and they still haven't been able to fix the dress on which I broke the strap adjuster thingies. Not happy. I just found a tank top that I kind of like but I'll give it to them to cut up so that they can fix this god forsaken dress.
I then got lost in Long Branch for a bit then found my way to the A&P where I picked up all my pie makings.
Three hours later I had 10 beautiful mini blackberry pies. I even had company at this point because Jacqueline dropped by. She is going to join Courtney & I on our adventure to the Carolina Cup this spring.
I never managed to run or do pilates today. Story of my life.
The Faja and I had dinner tonight. Mmmm Chinese. But question: who has a silver xterra and screamed "Graaaaaace" while we were walking down the sidewalk in Red Bank?
On my way home I picked up Courtney and we chatted while I cleaned up the pie mess. We dropped a pie of with Matt and I've been in bed on my computer since then.

I've only barely realized how soon this summer is coming to an end and it's freaking me out. I don't want to grow up.

I'm Back!

The blog is back. I've gotten my computer back from CNS finally. I did a bunch of things and I have a bunch of things to do. I'm too lazy to write a complete story so a list will have to do.

DONE
A fabulous two part 3rd of July party with everyone, even some Drew friends
Celebrated the 4th at the beach, Molly was back for the day
Visited Megan's crackden
Saw Hairspray for Chris' birthday
Went sailing in Maryland with Kary
Walked home at 6 am in a bikini
Explored Asbury Park with Taryn
Saw Taryn and James leave for down under
Working at Pottery Barn only 2 days a week
Babysitting Kary's neighbors and realizing I should be at 2 year old

UPCOMING EVENTS
Back to school August 31st
Maybe working at the day care at school-yay no alumni house!
Going to 4 European countries in 5 days when I go visit Molly
Planning the Carolina Cup with Courtney
Spring Break Madrid with La? Yes, please

I am also vowing to post at least once a day. Right now I'm going to see what ingredients I need for the blackberry pies I'm going to make. (I picked 10 cups of blackberries yesterday.) Then I'm going to stop by Kathy's to take care of the cats, pick up my dry cleaning and shoes, hit up the Acme, go for a run, do some pilates, shower and bake! Tonight I have a dinner date with my dad and then after I'll probably still have to bake. I should probably clean my crackden of a room too. I can't see the floor. On that note, I'm off.

Updates are harder than they look

So a recap of my life since Monday:

Monday: Wasted my life until Gugz called me and I went to her house. We sat by the pool with Kylee for a bit. She left and was replaced with Tory and her friend from school. There is nothing more enjoyable than sitting poolside on a gorgeous day with your friends, an ice cream sundae and vodka. We made another liquor run and saw Kerry. We then went our separate ways to clean up. In that time it managed to rain AGAIN. Our bonfire at some random house was rained out and we relocated to Tory's for the night. I am now in love with Salt Creek take out, Salt Creek garlic fries and Mini Coopers. I am also considering living in LA next summer. Is there a PB kids in LA? I'm going to look that up-Yes! and it's even in a place called the Grove. Whooo job next summer in LA.

Tuesday: I'm almost certain all I did was clean my room. But I effing love those Mr.Clean Magic Erasers. Magical.... I had Chinese with my dad for dinner where as usual he brought up everything I've ever done wrong for the 1000th time.

Wednesday: FIRST DAY OF WORK. Can you believe it? We had to unload and unpack boxes of supplies.

Okay I'm tired and bored and have work at 7:30 am. Bed time. Good night!

Maybe it's because I'm white but...


I really like this site.

Plus there's a book coming out in a few days. I feel like this might not be appropriate to read in public.

Teen Pregnancy

Dear Pregnant Teens of Gloucester, Massachusetts,

What.the.fuck.

Trying to get pregnant as part of a pact with your friends...are you retarded? I've made pacts with my friends, usually they're to avoid doing particular embarrassing things (like getting pregnant!).

Love,
the girl with only 2.5 months left of being a teenager and therefore will never be a teen age mother

Read about it here.

I Love Sheryl Crow

Her new song and video, out just a few days ago and I love it. It reminds me of something the Beatles might sing.

Girl Scout Cookies


Well, this makes me depressed.

Red Bank Green

Red Bank Green is an online news site that I actually find pretty interesting. The stories all revolve around this area. There is news, restaurant reviews, upcoming event etc. It kept me entertained for a whole fifteen minutes which is longer than most things.

The more I write, the more I realize how unproductive I am

So after waking up freakishly early on Saturday and being ready to go to the beach club since 9 am, I had to wait around for four more hours for my high maintenance mother. We grabbed lunch at the godforsaken snack bar. I spent the rest of the afternoon reading Martha Stewart Living hahaha. DJ & Christy were there too. I went to Ship Ahoy to see Jacqueline and Kellyann for a bit.

That night I made dinner. Probably the most intense dinner of my life. Prosciutto wrapped scallops, followed by lobster with a side of corn on the cob and breadcrumb and gruyere stuffed tomatoes. The tomatoes were amazing. I'll probably make those once a week from now on. Here's the recipe.


Gugz wanted to have a pool party but the torrential downpour put a hold on that. We ended up hanging out in the upstairs den, without power.

I woke up Sunday, still drunk, in a twin bed with Kellyann, about a foot from an empty bed and empty couch. What can I say?

Sunday I basically tried to sober up all day and it didn't work out to well. I didn't really do anything at all. Whoops, waste of life.

Today I woke up at noon, made lunch, made plans with Gugz and am currently waiting for her to give me a call. Until then, I''ll post some more interesting stuff.
