Hot Sunday

I attempted to sit out in the park again all afternoon. I was there for about an hour and I thought I was going to pass out from the heat. So I moved to a more shady spot, but it was still hot and the grass (or lack of it) was hard so I gave up and went home. But I managed to get lots done, I:

- Cleaned the bathroom
- Cleaned my room (it was in desperate need)
- Changed out my winter clothes for my summer clothes
- Got an Italian ice
- Went grocery shopping (to 2 stores!)
- Painted my nails
- Relaxed

All in all a pretty good weekend. Plus I had some fun chats with the roommates.

It looks like the second pair of jeans I sent to be repaired was shipped back to me today, I should have them Tuesday so we can do a before and after comparison.

What I Wouldn't Give...

...not not go to work tomorrow. I don't know what's up, but lately I just can't take working. Short of my death, someone else's death, or grievous injury or sickness to me or anyone else I would prefer anything to working tomorrow.

To get my thoughts together let's make a list of things I want to do this weekend...

- Go see the cherry blossoms at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden
- Spend lots of time in the park (it's supposed to be in the high 80's!)
- Return my stuff to the Gap
- Do my Self workout DVD
- Not eat a lot of crap because I've already used way too many weekly points

And that's all I've got. I feel really lame.

Really Lame

Too tired for paragraphs...

- Not nearly as irrationally angry as I was yesterday. I was in a funk all day, but it's better. Still not too eager to spend time with humans.

- Went to see Duplicity tonight. By myself. I sat in the front, front because I didn't want to be around anyone else or see anyone else around me. Stupid movie, I don't recommend it.

- I also don't recommend Skinny Cow Vanilla Truffle Ice Cream Pops. Tastes like nothing. And it's 2 points. I'd rather save my points for something good.

- However, Wasa Crips and Light Seven Grain crackers are delicious. And they have a cool texture.

- Tomorrow is supposed to be 76 degrees, I'm excited. I had planned to spend all day in Prospect Park, but EG invited me to Central Park so I think I'll head up there. Despicable secret: in the nearly 24 full years I've been alive, the majority of which I've spent in the tri-state area, I've never set foot in Central Park.

Finally, I got an email at work today that had this in the signature line:

The shortest answer to a problem is the distance between the floor and your knees.

Probably refers to praying, but I can think of a dirtier idea.

Gallery Opening

Tonight I went to a gallery opening. Not because I'm some type of art aficionado, but because my friend from work needed to check out the space for an event she's having there in a few weeks. The photographs they were showing were really nice, not really eye-catching or striking, but interesting for their simplicity and depth (eww, I sound pretentious). I thought we'd stay for an hour at the most, but we ended up being there for a good two hours or so. They had the best food of any gallery opening I've ever been to. Also a great alcohol selection and good desserts. Plus, the gallery owner seemed like a really nice guy. He talked to us twice and shockingly he seemed pretty genuine and cool.

And I took some pictures...

Pretty flower on the food table

The flower was on the food table, it was huge and gorgeous. The DJ was really cool. He's the Vintage DJ.

Things I want to do this weekend:

--Watch all the TV shows I missed this week--Kings (jury is still out on how I feel about it), Real Housewives of NYC, Samantha Who, Grey's Anatomy, and I feel like there are more...
--Fix my dresser drawers that are falling apart
--Go to the MOMA
--Go see the artists' cars in Grand Central
--Watch basketball
--Make coworker's chocolate and peanut butter cream pie??
--Brooklyn Flea sunday morning??
--SLEEP!
