Please forgive me, for I have sinned...
It has been 11 days since my last post. :P
Soooooooooo...since then...
Wednesday the 29th sucked cuz of a phone call. Yes, a phone call. How lame. This was @ 5:50pm, yet by 11pm I realized I was happier then than I had been the week before...and the week before that...and the week before that, etc. :)
Thursday the 30th (my brother's 25th birthday), I went to the mall w/Ja'+Cassie. They got out of Meet the Fockers really late, so it was, like, 5 of by the time we got to the mall, lol. Cassie came into Sam Goody w/me so I could return 1 of the birthday presents I got for Ja'. Lindsay was there and I was bein' all goofy, lol. Then we went to Vicki's so I could return my beautiful black corset. I took pics taken of me in it before I went to the mall tho', and they supposedly look really good, so yay...at least I have something to remember it by, hehe. :P
After that I met up w/everyone @ Bennigan's. Keith, Josh, and George showed up too. We had this massive table and I was in the middle, so I kept switching conversations, lol. I think I was pretty damn tipsy by the end of the night. That was the 1st night I had actually finished 1 martini and started on some more, lol. It was fun! :P
When we got home, I wrapped Ja's gift and gave it to him. He was excited. He didn't expect it this time like he did on X-mas, hehe.
The 31st, I woke up, got ready, and started packin' for Boston. Tha' chica got here @ noon-ish and we left around 1 I think. We had to stop in Allston before the Celtics game cuz Keith had to look at an apt., and we ended-up eating at this pizza place across the street. My brother stopped @ a liquor store nearby, but he didn't get any SoCo. :( He didn't hear me when I asked him what he was getting before he walked out the door. :(
After eating, we drove to the Copley Marriott and tried to get parking. The valet was full, so we had to park in the garage. Then, we got a cab to the Fleet Center. On the way, Keith and I were looking out the window to our left and we saw this guy pickin' his nose. This guy was knuckle deep. It was so gross. I looked away and then heard Keith go, "OMG, he ATE it!". So gross, lol. My brother was foolin' around w/the digital camera I helped my parents get him for X-mas, but he missed that photo opportunity, lol.
Anywayz, we got there and got in line when these guys tried to sell us a First Night button. It'd get us 30% off the tickets (I think that's what it was), so we bought it. The guys saw me shuffling through my money, and my brother was like, "*Awkward laugh*, she has all the money." So the guys were like, "Hey, why don't you come w/us and pay for us??" LOL...yea...haha...right.
So we got in and got our seats and chilled for a bit. Then, tha' chica had to go to the bathroom so I went w/her. Then, I got back and was asked if I wanted a beer. So I rushed after my brother and got a Coors Light. I got 1 for Keith too (didn't know it was 2 beers per person there...that's kinda' stupid of them). The beer was gross tho'. I like keg beer better, lol.
So the game was good. We moved seats during the 3rd period or something so we could sit w/O'Neil and his people, and be closer to Cassie's fam'. Celtics beat Washington 108-103, so all was good. :) Funniest part was when we were down towards the end of the game and the guy behind us was like, "Come on...we were almost at jungle level!" LOL, it was so funny. The jungle level thing was from the noise meter. It was the highest level on that thing, lol. We were all confused by that too, cuz isn't the jungle pretty quiet?
So after the game, we took the T back towards the Marriott and then walked the rest of the way. When we got out, we were right @ the parade. It pumped us up so much. There was just so much excitement in the air. :)
Anywayz, we got to the hotel and went to the front desk to get our keys. My mom had told me she left them there in an envelope w/our name on it. Well, when I asked for them, the stupid b^tch @ the desk said there weren't any envelopes for us. I hated that woman. She spoke to me like I was a little kid, not a guest @ their hotel. Luckily, I guess, my mom showed up and got our keys.
We went up to the room and I was dying of thirst. My dad went and got some Cokes for tha' chica and I tho', and I felt better once I had some.
Then, tha' chica decided to play a trick on the others. She ran out the door as I held it open, knocked on my parents' door, and ran back. They didn't notice tho'. :( Soo, she tried it on Cassie+Ja's door. LOL, the funniest part was how she looked when she ran back to our room. She had her arm going across her chest holding her boobs so they wouldn't fly out or bounce too much or w/e, hahaha. I couldn't stop crackin' up from that, hahaha. O man...I wish I had that on film.
After we fooled them, Ja' went out to get some booze, and came back w/SoCo. Woohooooooo! :P Cassie came in for shots, and we each had 1.
Then, we all started changin' for dinner. Before I was really done, Cassie knocked on our door to do another shot, and then I think I had 1 w/my brother. *Mmmmm*...SoCo...how sweet you are. :P
We left for The Palm Restaurant once we were all ready. It was connected to the Marriott, so we got to walk through Copley and pass the waterfall fountain thingy where I always made wishes when I was little. I made one there, and then I made another at the waterfall fountain thingy in front of The Palm.
The restaurant was cool. It wasn't as fancy as I expected it to be, but I liked it better that way. There were caricatures on the walls, and I recognized a few. They had 1 of Ernie Bach tho'...so lame.
For dinner I had some kind of martini...like orange-y or mango or something; my tomato, mozzarella, and balsamic salad (turns out Cassie loves that too); the prime rib; mashed potatoes; fried asparagus; and a cappuccino martini (soooo good).
After that, we went back to the hotel and changed back into the clothes we had worn earlier before heading off to the countdown spot we always go to when we're in Boston for the countdown. At the end of the countdown, Ja' gave me this big, hard kiss on the cheek and wouldn't let me go. :( Then, we were attacked by this kid who was obviously drunk and quite happy and was like, "HAPPY NEW YEARRRRRRR!" Cassie was all happy cuz he had a BLS sweatshirt on...but I hate them, so w/e. :P
From there, we got a cab to O'Neil's party. The keg beer was gross. It was Budweiser cuz some kid there worked for them. At least now I know I don't like kegged Bud. :P
There was this kid there who just butted into my life and was movin' his jaw around a lot so Cassie thought he was a cokehead, lol. There was def. somethin' goin' on w/some of those kids. One came into the family room area where we were sittin' and just laid down on the couch and passed out as if there weren't strangers in the room. This kid who tried to flirt w/everyone came out and made him wake up...what a good friend. :P
Umm, so after the party, we took a cab back to the hotel. OMG, funniest cab ride ever...minus that pedicab in NYC. It was normal, minus Cassie being trashed, until the cabbie was like, "It your birthday? You seem very happy." to Cassie. She said it was, then said it wasn't, and then he said something about how she should get lovin' on her birthday. Then, the doors started locking and unlocking, and tha' chica and I both thought of The Bone Collector and checked to see if he had a skeleton man dangling from his rearview mirror, lol. He started drivin' really fast then too, and drove down this street that looked like an alley. LOL, tha' chica and I were kinda' freakin' out, but cracking up at the same time at the weirdness of it all. Cassie was so funny at the end of the ride. The cabbie had a New Year's tiara thingy on his dash, and Cassie was like, "Oooo...that's a pretty crown!" The guy didn't respond, so she was like, "That's a pretty CA-ROWWWWNNN!" as if he didn't understand what she said, lol.
Tha' chica and I went back up to the room after that and talked for a bit before watching some TV. A repeat of Conan was on and MCR was the band playing, but I closed my eyes during a commercial from the 1st guest and fell asleep. :(
On the 1st, the alarm went off @, like, 8:30 or something, but I didn't get up cuz no1 bugged me to, lol. I wasn't even told to get up 'til, like, 11:15 when we were supposed to be outta' there by noon, lol. I got ready, ate in the room (good breakfast!), and packed up. Then, we went to the Pru' shops. I didn't buy anything 'cept a Coke cuz I was once again dying of thirst. I've been a lot more thirsty lately and I have no idea why, lol.
After that, we went to the Copley shops, and then back to the Pru shops, and then back to the Copley shops, lol.
Then, we went and saw Finding Neverland. It was really slow at first, and I was worrying I wasn't gonna like it, but I told myself to shut up and keep giving it a chance. It ended-up being really good...so good I'll probably buy it when it comes out on DVD.
After that, we went to dinner @ Champion's. I tried a...some-kind-of-liquor-name martini, but it was gross! Then I tried an appletini (they made it almost the way I like it), and it was pretty good. All I had to eat were the BBQ wings cuz I didn't like anything on the dinner menu.
There was a dumb football game on there too. Texas vs. Michigan. God, I hate football. I don't think I even care anymore. I'm pretty sure I've given up on the sport.
We left Boston after that, and tha' chica came up and looked @ the corset pics and listened to a song before she left.
I just chilled the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th, and then worked on the 5th (Lindsay's birthday). I got paid for driving Jake home again...def. sweetness. :)
The 6th, I just chilled. On Friday this guy asked me out, lol. I also went to see White Noise on the 7th before work. It was so funny during the jumpy parts, cuz someone kept clinging to my arm for dear life, lol. They led to nothing tho', so I was kinda' disappointed. I didn't jump @ all. :(
Sat. the 8th (Jake's birthday), I worked 10:15am-3:37pm. I hadn't been scheduled for that day, but Lee had asked me to come in so I could do pull-down. The morning was really fun, but it kinda' died down at 2.
After that, I came home and got ready for my birthday party w/the whole family. I was really disappointed when we got there, cuz Terry called to say they wouldn't be coming. My dad got them to tho', although they didn't come w/Jen, Mike, and John, and Sean, Colleen, Chris, and Ian didn't come either. That was okay tho'. I won $124 in scratch tickets before Jack&Terry even got there, hehe. I think I'm gonna cash that in tomorrow. :P The party was good, and I had fun, and lalala. :P
When we got home, I played w/1 of my gifts from Betty-Ann and won...woo!

Today...yesterday...the 9th, I worked 11am-close and then went out for an appletini @ Ruby Tuesday. Then we came back here and I found out I could've gone away w/Marc for a few days.
After that, we started to watch Shaun of the Dead, but someone fell asleep, so I gave up and fell asleep too.
Okay, now I have to go to bed cuz I gotta be to work by noon, lol.
Soooooooooo...since then...
