Burn Baby Burn

This evening, wandering around my apartment searching for the chinese take out pint container that I use as my water glass, while simultaneously compulsively turning off lights (roommate competition to lower the electricity bill every month-- its getting intense...!) I thought about bagging this entire blog effort. Actually internalizing daily life and reflecting on it every morning before work is a job in itself! Who has the time, who has the insight?! Apparently, not I.  As I meandered from one room to the next searching in vain for this freaking pint container full of water,  I was feeling increasingly guilty about the virtual neglect. I managed to find about 10 other glasses that I had somehow missed when collecting dishes for washing this evening, typical. and then, there it was, along with my other two pint containers that I had apparently given up for lost, another glass, and an old seltzer can that SG left to remind me of him during the week,  all right there on the night stand/filing cabinet next to my bed, where I was sitting when I got up to begin my search. and where they are every night. I took a pic, and thought, well hell, I will blog about the fact that I am apparently blind. Live update, just kicked it the pint over, onto my pillow, how wet.

I would rank this week as fun. In no chronological order:

VOGUE arrived! Its better than I even expected, interesting articles, great pics. All a girl could want on a solitary Sunday evening.

An act of God occurred: A FIRE in my gym! So liberating. Burn baby, Burn.  (no one besides the sauna in the locker room was hurt)  How pathetic is it that it takes a disaster in my gym to get my to change my routine, but all I can say is thank you god. Running in the park was a much needed return to the outdoors, if I ever spin again it literally may be too soon.

CBC came into the big NYC for a girls night and haircut at Devachan Salon. Let me tell you her hair looks amazing!!!!! CBC has the most amazing, bestest curliest hair in the world, which unfortunately I did not inherit, but I can live vicariously and jealously... Her coming into town made my want to compulsively cook, baked a rosemary lemon chicken on Friday night, with garlic mashed and green beans, then made lattes and crepes on Saturday morning. Take that Martha. It was all bomb too, which, when I am at the helm in the kitchen, is always a small miracle. Having the day with her in the city was great, and I cannot wait for her to come in more often. Love love love love.

I woke up at 3:55 AM on Friday morning to order my iPad-- I will say I owe someone a BIG thank you for making that event possible. I am eagerly awaiting its arrival. I got it engraved, will post a pic when it arrives!!

Went back up to my old home,  Haaalem-- for a movie night with BR- and saw this amazing sign. Hey baby, I want a divorce, and I got my lawyer's number off a burnt out crack den, so you will probably end up getting everything you want.

It was daylight savings so inevitably I had no idea what time it was for most of Sunday. Which is always fun, and terrifying every once in a while when you think you  must have been abducted by aliens because you swear you sat down a second ago, but the clock says an hour has gone by...then you realize, you just havent changed this clock yet...which then brings you back to, is this time right or is the one you thought it was when you sat down...Pics below of varying times this evening...Who knows where the clock on the wall got the time...

Saw all four of my nephews, my  niece, my mom and all three sisters, which makes any week worth living in! So even though my closet looks like hell and I still cannot shower at my gym, things are good, and the blog didnt get the chop, this week at least.

Also discovered a hysterical new Avril Lavigne song that I am loving. So embarrassing, and yet I do not seem to care... Its not not on loop right now....whoa ohhhhh what the hell.
