back in nyc

so, my internet is being funny.... i'm not even sure if after i type all this it will go through... here's to hoping...

my road trip back was a long but fun one, spent blasting music and singing along with lori40... traffic wasn't too bad but boy was i tired when i got home.

kerrigan got rock band two.... so needless to say i've been jamming out since i got home... started playing the drums on that shit and now i'm hooked... who knew i would be good at it!

new york is cold, but it feels good to be back. still no word on the job tip but i'm thinking good thoughts for the new year to come.

my thoughts at the moment are with connie and nelson.... i am wishing them the best in this sticky situation.... and wishing terribly that i was there with them for support. i am there in my heart. good thoughts, nothing but good thoughts.

new years is right around the corner and another year has flown by. so much has changed for me in these 365 days and i believe i have continued to change for the better.... i am excited to see what this new year will bring.

i am thankful for the new people i have met this year and the relationships between people that have blossomed. i wish everyone a happy and healthy new year. i have nothing but love for you all and can't wait to watch you all grow with me.

HAPPY FUCKING NEW YEAR

get a kiss for me if you can when the clock strikes twelve tonight...... marshe i know you will girl.



cheers to loving life, loving the people in it

we love this city.... which one? RICHMOND!

well, ladies and gents,

it is four thirty in the am, i have had a wonderful day in richmond with smiles and hugs and missed faces. i am happy.

yesterday i went to my dad's, my dad and step mom were in high spirits of my adventures of the past few months. they both seemed to see me in a different light this time around, like i had somehow "made it"........

funny thing is..... i haven't.
i'm living my life to it's fullest as always but i am in no way the best i could be. i'm broke, about to get government assistance because i can't afford the food i need, and i could really use a steady job. i'm going to have to look into teaching.....

anyways, blah blah, the trip to their house wasn't bad at all, my dad recalled the year we hung out when i was younger, when we would go camping together, and explore old abandoned houses, get dirty and bro down. he even said at one point "you're my daughter." like he was just realizing this. "you sure did some crazy things with me, you really are a cool girl"....... all very strange to hear coming from a person i feel i barely know. but i can't complain. the past is the past as it always will be. maybe they don't even remember what they said to me today, but i will. and that's what counts.

back to my travels to richmond.....
i got to see my ladies at world of mirth, of course smiles and hugs commenced.... and i got in trouble for gyrating in a children's store... haha what can i say, i was excited to see them

tried to go to thai diner two but as ALWAYS every time i visit, they were closed in the middle of the day. no fried tofu... next time.....

went to ellwoods with ma dukes and got my gluten free bread.... soooo stoked

went to rumors,

went to marshes

got to see connie (too short of a visit if you ask me!!!)

WENT TO MEKONG with a huge crew of people..... fucking noodle bowl..... i ate till i felt sick

went to ipanema and got to dance the night away.... with all the right people. sweat my ass off as usual which only means i was non stop and having a good time. the music could have been a little better, it seemed to be catered more to the get loose crew this time around.... show some love for the dancing ladies doddie!

it was really good to see everyone, to get so many hugs, to put the biggest smile on my face, to catch up, to dance with my girls,

and the weather. the fucking weather today was PERFECT.

fucking good times.

tomorrow i'm headed back to nyc in the am. this trip will not be forgotten and i'm more focused to make some dough so i can come back and visit soon.

tattoo party anyone!?!?

ok ok i'm off to bed it's so hard to get sleepy after jumping around dancing my ass off......


road trip with lori forty tomorrow!
