Hey, all. I am back from New York (yeah, home! where I can smoke INSIDE. Craziness.) I had a lovely time, but I think I have developed a humps (not a Love;y LAdy Lump, but a Quisimodoesque lurch) from shlepping a giant overnight bad around for 36 hours. Argh.
Went out with Trudy, who is now in Toronto doing improv (I met one of her cast mates, a lickable man), saw an improv show with her, saw her DELICIOUS martial arts instructor, walked about 2000 miles, was cold, drank too much, was a hoor, and got no sleep Friday night and went to Saturday's conference at 7 a.m. with a vicious hangover and fierce stubble burn. And my work paid for it ALL!
Stayed in New Jersey, paid $70 for a cab ride the first night, but succcessfully negotiated the NJ trains, the NY subway and the Queens cabbies to get me, my luggage and my coworker to LaGuardia this morning. I am a fucking rock star.
I am a tired rock star.

Better than I've ever managed, or even had the courage to try, and I live in Jersey. Glad you had fun! Fun on someone else's dime is the best.
Welcome home, Erin!
I am currently surfing the Internet while holding baby. I type MUCH slower this way!
Self-reliancy is so satisfying to me, it's almost erotic. Although last night, the exisitence of a creature called the "express train" did make me have to back and fill.
IMO, New York subway system is SO much more confusing than the Tube in London.
A hoor!! With stubble burn and no sleep! I'm so impressed, Erin. And hella jealous.
Me, I went to go meet my latest craigslist date, and got stood up. Harumph.

Just trying to keep up with tradition.
No, actually, that's a lie. I was just thinking."Gnnnaarrrr, vodka and cute boi NARFFF NARG SNORGLE sorry trudy GNARJF."
He's got my thumb!
Oh, that makes my ovaries ache.
Mom and my sister are conspiring to eliminate the xmas gift exchange. Mom says my sister told her we're basically just exchanging $50 bills. Last year I was my sister's giver and I put a lot of time and effort into her gifts. I am the only person in the gift exchange who doesn't get a christmas present from any other source. I know that receiving gifts shouldn't be the important thing about christmas but I want to cry.
