When I write something simply fantastic the other night, and it doesn't post. I go and try and check it days later and realize it somehow has disappeared. Boo. It's annoying because I think it was some good things I wrote. I had some things about planning things, and then maybe something about wine, and my family, but nooooo it's gotta go and fade into the night like a ghost writer. Booness.
Well something that's making me happy right now? I don't have to work for the next 36 hours [give or take of course.] So tonight I bought some wine and cheesecake. I plan on eating and drinking and swimming for the next 36 hours. I plan on living like the Golden Girls. [Sidenote: that show is on like 24/7. Not that I'm complaining or anything I could watch that show forever.]
Intervention. My parents are so lucky that all I am addicted too laughs, cute boys, and loud music. And of course beer.
So since I'm just writing about what's going on right in this moment, I'm watching this show called Dance Moms and oh sweet baby Jesus, it's pretty awesome, these mothers are going to make me throw up. These poor little girls look like they wanna die. Anyway, that was all. Oh and how does this lady teacher teach them anything? She's an interesting size, and this show is just interesting all together.
It might be time for bed. I've got loads of things to do tomorrow and I'm super excited because I've got time to do things for me! Oh and family is in town, which is always a plus.
Happiness is watching this dancing show and missing dance like crazy. I miss everything about it.
Love me like I love merlot, best friends, and cute hair. Yeah I'm been drinking so what? :)
I've been in New York for a year, the desire is still tact, the dream is still alive and kicking, and I'm wearing sunglasses. Hit it.

Somtimes I Just Like....
Sometimes I just like staying up late, drinking lots of red wine, listening to music, and dancing around my room. I've been writing, dancing, drinking, and reading for the past 2 hours and it's been glorious.
I've been texting Sara all week about this past weekend. I told you, it's a high that we can't get rid of and there's nothing I can do about it. We've gotten through the phase of "How close is their next show and should we go" we've got to pretend to plan trips, it's part of the withdrawals people.
And I've been writing like crazy. I told you, that's all that it takes, something fantastic to happen, stir up the normal of my plain life, and I'll be writing like crazy.
Biking!!! So I'm back to riding the bike to work and oh my how I love it. I don't really like the ickyness I feel when I first get there but I love the way I feel later that day, all exercised and what not.
There is some exciting news coming into the world of Mackenzie, but I don't want to say until it's official, so please stand by and you'll hear something this week for sure. And for a little hint, downtown Orlando will be raped with our dancing and drinking skills. She and I are meant to knock cities down.
What else...tiny one comes home tomorrow maybe. I've finished watching HPatGoF today, so that means I've got 3 more to see until I see the new one on Monday!!! So one tomorrow, one Friday, one Sunday, and the new one MONDAY!! Can you tell I'm excited.
I'm just reallyed excited about things that are coming up. And hopefully tomorrow if not Friday I can let it all be known.
Well that is all. I'm finished this wine, starting a load of laundry, and getting for bed. It's been a long day and staying up alone isn't as fun as being with people.
Yes I still get weak in the knees thinking about that night.
Happiness is loving your job. I really truly, honestly do love waiting tables.
Love me like I love this song. Stuck in my head all week.

We're No Different In The Neon Lights....
There are no words to describe how amazing this weekend was. Let me tell you a little bit about it....
Friday started out good. I had to work that morning, made some money, went home for a few hours and then back to work that night [I got to work the to go's and the phones!] and then left around 8. Had to go shopping real quick, I needed a plain black of slip on shoes. Just plain back, nothing fancy, and just all black. I found a pair [Although I REALLY wanted the ones I saw at Target every time I went, but then of course when I finally wanted to buy them, they weren't there.] When home, showered, and headed on out to Will's Pub.
No matter how many times I've been there, I always pass it. Always. That's just a side note, and has no important value to anything else I'm gonna say.
For as long as I've been going to see these boys, it never gets old, ever. And I wonder how many times I've said that? They are the nicest bunch and this time was no different. It had been nearly 6 months so everyone was very excited to be back. Although there was heavy drinking, the show was awesome, with so many people there! It was late night [They didn't go on until almost midnight] but still fun none the less.
Saturday started very early [I was in bed by 3 and then back up at 7.] and tiny sister and I started loading up the van to head on out to Jacksonville. We headed right to the beach, but of course we didn't plan on rain and cloudy skies, so we didn't stay long but we did get in. [It was freezing though, which was super weird, but we figured it was because of the rain and such.] After some beach, we had lunch with Justin and Rob, and tiny one got to see first hand on what I get to deal with, and she loved every minute of it. Then it was to Justin's place so that she and I could freshen up before I had to take her over to her friend's house. After dropping her off, the night could begin!! To the hotel to wait for Sara, then margaritas and dinner, then the show at Jack Rabbits.
I'm gonna say it like everyone else said it, and Casey said it first, it was like a fricken family reunion. I've never seen so many happy people before. It was nothing but smiles, hugs, and loads of drinking. If it wasn't at the bar, it was in the van, or at maybe again at the bar. And it nice to not have anyone super out of control. It was the perfect buzz to have all night.
You are our favorite part about coming to Jacksonville.
It was the most awesome night. We good people, new fantastic memories, and a high that I won't shake off until who knows when. One of the best parts, was waking up the next morning, and saying 'So that just happened.'
Oh Sunday Sara and I did lunch, I took little one over to Mrs. Pat's and I had to head on back south. I ended up going straight to Improv, but lord was I tired.
And now I'm back at home, watching the 2nd Harry Potter, and super excited about seeing a movie with my Dad tonight. It's just back to work, and saving again. Although people keep talking about trips that they'd love to take...
Happiness is getting some inspiration. Mentally and spiritually.
Love me like I love crossing things off my bucket lists.

10 Things I'm Thinking About Right Now...
In no particular order of course.
10. All the Casey Anthony stuff. All that I have to say about it is that I'm sad the little girl won't get any justice for it, yet. I don't know all the facts and I'm no expert on the case at all [although that is all they talk about here.] it's just sad all together. The played the verdict over the radio while I was serving and I thought a woman was going to faint. She was so upset. I'm just tired of hearing everyone's thoughts on it. Isn't there anything else going on in the world? Aren't there people out there doing nice things for others?
9. Harry Potter. It's all I can think about. It's all I dream about. I want to watch the movies at every moment of the day. I'm rereading the last book now and I want to cry with every page turning. I can't get enough. I get teary eyed when any of the commercials come on for the last movie. THE LAST MOVIE. I'm gonna see it the Monday after, the earliest showing I can, so that I can hopefully be alone with myself, my emotions, and a coke slushy.
8. Jacksonville on Saturday. Ah, I'm so excited! The beach for a few hours, then some hanging out to be followed by mexican and margaritas for dinner, and then American Aquarium! Seeing old friends and new friends, good music, summer time feelings, and did I mention I get to see them here in Orlando tomorrow night too? So after a double at work, I get to change and see them at Will's Pub. Oh yeah, this weekend is gonna rock.
7. New York. Duh. But more so the fact that another friend of my mine is moving up there too and that could mean something sweet for us, the more the merrier and hopefully cheaper rent. This is something I'll for sure keep tabs on, knowing one more person up there [someone I've actually lived with before] will make this experience all the more awesome.
6. The beach. Although this weekend already got a number I'd like to give a personal shout out to the beach. I'm looking forward to our smell, the way you make my hair feel, how you can feel the sun kiss your nose ever so slightly, and how you can't really be angry at the beach. I love it and miss it all the time. So look out beach, I'm about to make love to you.
5. My bike. I haven't had to ride my bike to work in almost 3 weeks, and I can for a fact that my body is paying for it. I miss it! I've been driving because dad has been out of town, or I've needed to help run tiny sister around, whatever the case I'm excited to by back to my normal routine next week.
4. Writing. Why haven't I been writing like I use too? When I first moved in I was writing all the time, I couldn't enough of it. But now for some reason it hasn't been coming as easily. How does one go about getting that inspiration back? Of course it'll come to me when I least expect it. Which is always neat.
3. Summertime. Although this will be nothing like the summer of 2010 or even close to the summer of '09, I'm looking forward to how it'll be different. I do love my drunken nights where I don't wake up before noon the next day, and I love sitting by the pool for 6 hours at a time, but right now I'm in total love with the rummy game that I have going on with the tiny sister. I love playing and wish we could play everyday! It's the little things that I'm enjoying [that don't cost money, lucky me.] and these will be the moments that I miss when I venture north.
2. Best friends. Everywhere, Tallahassee, Jacksonville, and Virginia. I miss all them very much and I hope they know that. I wish that I had loads of cash that I could visit everyone more often but that isn't the case. But know that I think about you all often and hope to see your lovely smiling faces soon.
1. Me! I say me because I just have so much going on inside of me. I'm excited about so much, nervous about so much, scared about so much, and just every other emotion that you can think of. I am, more than ever [And I know that I say this all the fricken time.] in love with me.
Well I'm going to finished watching the first movie and then maybe some dessert.
Friday, get in my brainnnnnnnnn!!!!!
Hope everyone is doing well, smiles loads and good things will happen.
Happiness is Harry when he's 11.
Love me like I love snickers ice cream and cake. Oh yeah :)

Oh Goodness...
People are going to think that I'm a terrible blog person. It's been over a week! They'll say "You said you'd blog everyday, you said you'd keep us up to date. Blogging is serious Mackenzie." I was talking to someone this weekend [While I was in NY, but more about that in a bit.] and they were saying they have been reading a lot, but some of the blogs are so hard to read and what not. I don't think that's real reading, is it? I suppose if it's by an expert maybe or, eh I don't know. I didn't realize this blog world is more intense then just writing down a few things. But anyway, on to the more fun stories :)
I left for New York on Thursday afternoon. Got to the airport early, did the self check in, didn't check any bags, got through security pretty quick, success! And then the flight was delayed like an hour. It was pretty fun, it never fails. So I sat and wrote and had a margarita while I waited. Finally got on the plane, took a 99 watermelons [little liquor bottle] with me on the plane and had that while I read to JFK.
Finally get north, take an insane cab ride to Fiona's place, and then it began! We had some dinner, went out had a few drinks, and then some sleep. Some of course is the key word. Friday was getting up and going into the city by myself and talking to the Moe's people. Ended up getting a call from the owner and she's gonna send me an application and go from there. A step in the right direction right?
Friday night was end Fi's best boy friend from college, dinner, and then sooner or later sleep. Saturday wen did some errands for the party that night, had more good food, and watched TV for like 5 hours, it was lovely sitting hanging out. Got ready for the party and then it began! She's got a great group of people and I have been lucky enough to meet loads of them and them welcome me so nicely.
Was up until like 3 something. I had to be out of the house by no later than 6, flight was at 8. So needless to say I was a bit tired/hungover this morning. Then the flight was delayed because of the weather while we were on it, but I didn't even notice because I was sleeping.
Back home now, have eaten and slept a bit more, and totally indulging in some Lifetime Movies. I don't feel as sad leaving this time because everything is pretty set for September. We've talked about how the room will work, how long I'm allowed to stay, now all the needs to happen is make sure her parents are cool with it. Ah yes, it all seems to be coming together.
Well just to be sure, I've been keeping my fingers crossed.
This week is full of working, and then something to look forward too, American Aquarium on Friday! It has been too long and this is just a few steps below being super excited about NY.
The fireworks have begun in the backyard so you know it's almost the time. There is nothing more exciting than fireworks, family, and a cold beer. That's what I plan on doing after work tomorrow :)
Alrighty kids. Stay cool, be safe with the fire, and make sure you smile a few times this week.
Happiness is being in love with madness that is involved in getting and leaving New York. It never fails, ever. And I love it.
Love me like I love my family. Having talked to everyone today, I'm just the luckiest girl ever :)
