last week
yall the snow is ridiculous. don't worry, i have plenty of pics, but let me first catch you up on the last week.
i spent the better part of last week in atlanta for work. i had two meetings on wednesday. the first one was exhiliarating and incredibly productive and the second one was exhausting. i also got a bunch of work done meeting on the website, and my co worker susanna was able to upload some of it, so i am very happy about that. as always, whenever i go to atlanta to work, i get lots done, but then i also create a great deal of work for myself for when i return to brooklyn. it will keep me busy all this week.
i arrived into a very rainy atlanta in the afternoon and helped my co worker stacia with an event she coordinated. it was raining so hard when it ended that we offered the presdent of the university and the head of legal a ride back to the administration building in my little red rental car. luckily, we made it back safe. i spent monday and tuesday night with sarah and kim and it was great. on monday night we got grilled cheese sandwiches at this new restaurant in east atlanta called the graveyard. the sandwiches were delicious and the place is so beautiful. it was the perfect end to a cold and rainy night. on tuesday night we ate frozen pizza and struggled through another round of american idol. when it gets real bad, i plug my ears and hum and sarah told me that was cheating and i had to listen to it all. i just couldn't.
i spent wednesday and thursday night with dawn, gator, and bailey. on wednesday night dawn and i ate burritos from el myr and watched the grammy's until gator got home. overall i found the grammy's to be a bit boring and i am seriously over madonna and her purple leotards. on thursday morning i got to spend some quality time with bailey and gator while dawn slept. bailey is walking like a maniac (actually more like frankenstein) and is as cute as a button. he still has that real scratchy cry like he smoked a pack of cigarettes and his hair is getting longer and longer (and so are the curls around his ears- adorable). on friday morning we all went to ria's for breakfast before i headed to the airport. bailey was fascinated by the kitchen and spent the entire time turned around in his high chair watching the goings on in the kitchen. we also found that he is uninterested in real bacon and fake sausage.
it was great to re-connect with everyone in atlanta and it made me really miss folks once i got back to brooklyn. oh, yes and on thursday, i visited demian at liberty tattoo and go the rest of my magnolias finished. it took another three hours, but it finally done. here is a picture of it. the bottom blossoms will turn white like the top one once they heal. i really love it. its hella dry and itchy right now, and i can't wait until it is all healed up. i will post more pics then too.
now while i was hard at work in atlanta, jes was hard at work here in the big apple. last week was her summer internship interview week. she had four interviews and hopefully she will post about them herself. in general, they went well and i am thinking she will hear about a job over the next few weeks. but the real important part is how fucking sexy she looks in her professional gear. check it out yall:
i *seriously* can not wait until she gets to dress like this everyday for work. its gonna be a good thing.
ok last thing before i get into reports on the snow. on friday night ali, jes and i went to this place in the city called "FNB" and had delicious fake hotdogs. ali got just like ketchup and onions and mustard but jes and i got the "prairie dog" which has guac, tomatoes and cheddar cheese. then we all shared onion rings, regular fries and sweet potato fries. it was hella good. then the three of us walked on over to nowhere (the bar) and did kamakaze shots (i shit you not-in celebration of jes finishing her hell week) and then played erotic photo hunt. ali was a bit timid about touching the screen, but by the end she was touching ladies thongs and other naughty bits. together, ali and jes got the high score. GO TEAM!
then yesterday jes and i drove to the hardware store to get some sleds (i am so glad we did) and then to get some of her books at school. we also moved our car off our street b/c there is street cleaning tomorrow. later ali came over for a dinner of fake chicken fingers and annie's mac and cheese with steamed broccoli in it. eventually higgs joined us and we played a riveting game of cluedo (the british version of clue). it just so happens this game is both ali and higgs' favorite game so it was very exciting. i felt it was a bit hard to follow and i made an incorrect accusation and got kicked out the game, but it was hilarious to watch jes and ali talk trash about cluedo. here is a picture of us:
ok i am going to post in a minute about the snow. hang tight.
