the summer of george has ended, welcome the 3 weeks of allison
Soon I'll change the title of this thing.
Well, there's always 2 reasons for not saying much in quite some time here. One would be that everything's really slow and there's just not a damn thing going on to talk about. The other would be that there's just way too much going on and I just don't have time to sit down and write about shit. My answer would have to be that there's a little bit of both; a couple weeks ago nothing going on and me getting extremely bored as usual then all of a sudden me with lots of things to do.
I went to my sister's in N.VA 2 weeks ago. I had so much fun! (as I figured I would) Won 5 bucks from the Nats-Mets game, went to brickskeller for 7hrs and had many a delicious foriegnated beers then went to another bar on sun for another 7hrs. Just enough time to go home and sleep :)
The next week went by pretty slowly and boringly and I was just happy to get through it. I don't know what I did that week but I feel like it went by really quickly for no reason at all.
But then... I GOT A JOB!!! Yay so excited. I finally got my call back with good news. I'll be working at Northrop Grumman in Bethpage, currently approx 20 mins from my house and I start in 2 weeks. Right now I'm looking for an apartment. I have 2 possibilities but I want to look at another one next week that might be nicer and be in a better area for me. So I'm so excited for that! Hoorray for moving out! A new apt and then I gotta get cool new stuff too, fun stuff.
Last week I mustve slacked off on monday bc I cant remember what I did but then I know on tues is when I looked at the 2 places in seaford and levittown. Wed I tried checking out another place but couldn't then started on my drive. My dad wanted me to drive his car down to the house in florida for him. I stopped at Jeanette's in V-to-the-iz-A for the night then started out from there on thurs morn. I figured I'd probably get about 3/4 of the 17hr drive before I would have to stop and sleep. I did the whole thing that day. From 930am to 230am. Stopped for gas and eats and peeing. Towards the end I knew I needed a little more fuel but wasn't tired yet so I got some redbull as a prevent. I figured if I was going to be tired I would anyway with that so it can only help, plus they're so delicious. It rained a lot on the way down. It was boring too, but at least not as boring as I expected. I had a tape player and the radio; I didn't realize his car didn't have a cd player until I left but at least my sister was able to lend me some of her old random tapes that she had. I was afaid all I'd get would be country and southern talk shows. Fortunately when I did listen to the radio I was able to find a decent station. Spent part of friday there and flew home last night on jetblue. Gaddamn yankee fans. They're watching the game and of course at first they're down by 5 runs or something. They get one hit and the fuckers start clapping. This was only the start of the "comeback." There was more clapping, it was pathetically annoying. But I got 3 cookies and they finally lost once the game ended after I got home.
Today I went to Beer on the Pier 2! It was a beer tasting fest in the city. Yummy beer, mmmmmmmm! It rained all day. I got fucking soaked. Seriously, there was no getting around this, S-O-A-K-E-D. And I had a poncho on, free from OK Beer, I knew it wouldnt help though. I came home afterwards to dry myself and just chill out. After standing around in the rain and wind for 4 hrs I couldn't do much more. So basically right now I'm so tired that I just want to sleep forever but can't fall asleep for some reason. Maybe I just need rest and not sleep, hmm oh well. I need to get up tomorrow morning too so we can go to the J-E-T-S game! Planning on leaving here about 910, Chris's at 930 then possible tailgate action at the stadium.
So to sum up:
-small trip to dc then unfortunatly had to come back home
-got job
-new apartment soon
-drove to florida
-drank beer in rain
-probably other things I wanted to say but forgot tonight
Me tired.
Think I'll try that sleep thing again.
