Day 242: Borrowed clothes

!)
Sharon lent me her favorite dress today! Yay!

mostly because she didn't really have time to look through and find something for me to wear to work since I didn't pack for today and got locked in the bathroom! (long story)

I love the belt buckle strap! (this is pretty much the only picture I took today...for shame!!)

Day 241: the week of goodbye parties

My friend Eve is moving to Seattle next week (for loooove....ooOoooOooo) and the Guamies decided to have a going away picnic at riverside park...

Interesting where love can lead you...





Peace out Eve! Good luck! :)

Day 240: baby duty

Stayed with the Da Costas this weekend in Jersey and thought I'd give Sharon a break and take care of the baby during the night... Kinji is easy to take care of for the most part, but he doesn't like sleeping alone and he keeps odd hours...I was up at seriously the buttcrack of dawn with him...soooo exhausted!





I don't know how mothers do it day in and day out... I think I'll stay an auntie just for a little while longer...or a lot while longer...:)

Day 239: good luck william!

One of my coworkers is leaving to move to china next week to be with his girlfriend so we had a going away party for him today.





He thought he was going to a meeting. Too cute that he brought his notebook and everything! He's not used to being the center of attention so it's just so adorable how he turned red when he saw we were all there for him.

Wishing him all the best...:)

Day 238: I live here

Met up with an old family friend who is visiting tonight and hung out by the seaport... Sometimes it still hits me with disbelief that I live in New York City!!

Day 237: Self portrait!

It's been a while since I actually sat down and took the time to take one like this... Guess I've just been too busy/tired/lazy to document...

I will have to be better! Soon! Hopefully!

I will say for the record though... that life gets better and better every single day. :)

Once I have more time, maybe I shall be able to expound on that....

Day 236: Joyce and Luca time

Dinner with Luca...finally!




Trying to get some pictures in before he leaves and before he shaves his head!

Day 234: if I didn't know better...

I've either come to my senses or lost them completely....

Day 232: fatty mcfattypants

There's an iPhone app I downloaded today called FatBooth where you take a picture and then it alters it so you gain like a hundred pounds. Suffice it to say we had plenty of fun with it at lunch time.





Props to Brandon for:
1) sending his mom a picture of fatty Brandon and making her panic by convincing her his face just suddenly swelled up.
2) taking the picture of the fatty version of our company's president/owner (Rich's dad) and sending it to everyone in our office.

Well played, sir. Well played!

Day 231: "oh what a beautiful moooorning..."

Thursday is finally here!!! Yayyyy!

Woke up to the sound of baby Kinji crying and went to check up on him but Sharon had it covered so I went back to sleep. Before I did though, I took a second to admire the morning upon me...what a beautiful day!!

...and THEN I went back to sleep! :)

Day 228: after the rain...

When it's raining, it's sometimes hard to see past the gray... But eventually the sun peeps through the clouds. There's always sunshine after the rain...you know, unless it's nighttime. :)

Day 227: the graduate

I graduated bartending school today! I made 22 drinks in under 6 minutes!

To celebrate, my teacher taught us about layered shots with real alcohol. Baby Guinness shots! Whoooooo!





I'd write more but I'm exhausted! :(

Bartending, here I come!

Day 225: feed the hungry and your vocabulary at the same time!

That's what freerice.com does. It's a website that's essentially a never ending vocabulary game where every correct answer donated ten grains of rice to end world hunger. I hadn't played in a couple years and today forgot how awesome yet addictive it could be. So many words I don't know! Insouciance and aliform are not two of them. :)

Day 224: "can't stop me"

...at least that's what I think it says... It could say something else...which is what I had thought it said (I'm so gullible, Brandon said that's what it was so I didn't even question it until he said, "nooo it says 'can't stop me'" and not the other thing. Hahahah)...you never know about New Yorkers! People can be that vulgar!!

Day 223: almost as good as hugs

I've been having a rough week at work, and when I'm really annoyed and/or stressed out, I really need hugs. Unfortunately for me, it's a bit impossible... But flowers help! They got delivered yesterday and totally made my day! Week, actually, since they're still sitting at my desk. :)

Also at my desk... Cookie delivered via Fedex! Yeah!

Work crap is still there but this certainly makes it better! :)
