Smiling Everywhere...

What can I say, again, for not posting? Well there is no excuse. It's just that I don't have a desk, and sometimes I'm just so fricken lazy, and blah blah blah. Anyway, this is what's new....

The Toole's and Robbie came to visit in December and I had the best time with them! It is so nice having best friends come to visit you. We did loads of touristy stuff, laughed a whole bunch, and I just loved having them here over all.

Then we had this whole fisaco with the NYFD, Dept of Buildings, and our landlord. It was because we live on the 4th floor and there is only one way in and one way out. So it was required that we have a fire escape. After avoiding the Fire Department, calling the landlord a million times, and talking to so many people, they finally put one up. Now we can eat, sleep, and play in a safe building. Although the building is still an illegally converted building, all is well in that regard.

The twins came to visit for New Years! And although I ended up having to work the eve and the day, it was still so amazing to have them up here. We went to the rooftop of my old apartment and had champagne and talked. We went to bars and danced till morning. We laughed a lot too. And ate we ate loads. Top 5 best visits for sure. (Yes it's true, I've only had 3 visits, but still it'll be up there forever.)

Work is still alright. The food and drinks are still the main driving point for the job. I never get mad about anything. I've got this terribly thick skin and nothing really bothers me. But about 3 weeks ago, an opportunity was passed over on me for a serving position. And not that I would have minded if they would have hired someone with more experience than me as a server, it's the fact that the manager chose someone who had never served before, and it was the other hostess that works there with me. I was so mad, but there's only so much you can do.

We got internet and cable!! We were stealing it from the kids on the 2nd floor but they ended up moving so we had to get internet. And then we started thinking about how much we miss TV, and badda bing badda boom, we've got an LG 32' TV. The cable people told us that if we got a home phone too we could get Showtime and Starz for free. So we now have a home phone too. Oh! and the kids on the 2nd floor also left us their futon, although it's broken it's a nice kind of couch for now. It's starting to look more and more like an apartment and soon, we're gonna have parties and sleepovers, and whatever else happens in furnished apartments.

And while we're talking about TV, I'm on the season finale on Dexter, and I've missed him so much. It wasn't as exciting as so of the other ones but still it was pretty good. And next I'm moving onto Shameless, AHHH. God I love that show too.

I'm going home in April. The 17th thru the 24th, and I don't think I can express how excited I am about it. Seeing my family, hopefully getting to see a decent amount of my friends, seeing the ocean hopefully as well. It's going to be an amazing week. Little one is getting confirmed, middle one is turning 21 for goodness sakes, and I'll just enjoy being in their presence.

I think that's all? It's lunch time and then clean this place like crazy.

I miss you kids, I love you all and think about everyone often. Message me/text me/ facebook me/ call me, I want to hear all the amazing things that you all are doing. I've seen nothing but good things so far.

Happiness is my comfy clothes and being alone in the apartment.

Love me like I love saving money, getting ish done, and being surrounded by blankets watching the tube :)
