Tax season update 2

OK tax season is almost coming to a close. 10 more days! Yowza!

No word from Brandon. Maybe he finally got the hint I wasn't interested. LOL

Helen had her baby son a week or so ago. His name is Nathaniel Douglass Hunter. Nice name!

I am watching Titanic tonight. Hope to watch the soccer Real Madrid-Valencia game tomorrow afternoon. I have two tax appts today. Possibly one tomorrow.

Need to do two or three tax returns that are taking me forever to do/get around to doing.

Taxes and such

OK, I made a lot of money this week. Not as much as last weekend but we can't all win! LOL

Anyways, I met with two clients today and I will have a day off tomorrow. I am going to Nets-Bobcats game tonight with Chiemi ($20 tickets! discounted from $40).

I will go to Hunger Games movie (I saw it Friday night with Rebecca but bought this ticket before then) and meetup dinner with Alfredo (his last meetup as organizer).

3.5 more weeks left of tax season and then it's a long 9 more months til the next tax season!

So next week is less hectic than this week. On Monday I will go to all you can eat spaghetti and all you can drink sangria. On Tuesday there is this free movie and dinner meetup. Not doing anything on Wed and Thurs as of yet. Heading to La Casa Femme with Augustine on Friday night. And there is a tentative dinner meetup on Saturday night but there's only one other person signed up so not sure if that's happening or not!

See less hectic but who knows if I'll get more plans next week as the time approaches.

Rebecca is Chiemi's friend who moved to Astoria and we started hanging out. She's nice. Nearer my age (31) than Chiemi.

Anyways, Brandon was in Toronto this week. Oh well.

OK I had one appointment on Sat and one appointment on Sun. Not so bad. No appts tmrw but I do start my second day of hopefully constructive work at the technology company started by the Cornell graduate.

It's a very depressing work situation. Run-down apt building! I hope it doesn't become full-time. I know I can do better! LOL

I have two tax appts on Tuesday (one at 8:30am, one at 5:3opm just in case I need to work on Tuesday). One tax appt on Sat.

I need to get more busy! It's the home stretch - last 4 weeks before tax season ends!

I am meeting my bro for burger dinner at Van Diemens ($24 for two burgers with fries, two beers and one fried OREOS). Not bad!

Then going to Sushi dinner for 2 at Fusha West in Upper West Side with Chiemi on Tuesday.

My first dining out meetup at Breeze with three other people! That should be fun.

NY Philharmonic concert on Thursday - guest conductor over Henze and Schubert. With dinner at Il Violino beforehand.

No plans on Friday night.

Saturday night I am going to Nets basketball game ($20 tickets) with Chiemi in Prudential Center in Newark, NJ

Sunday I am going to movie and dinner meetup with Alfredo, his last as a meetup organizer. The movie is Hunger Games .. Should be good.

So I have an action-packed week ahead of me.

Let's see if I have time for Brandon this week. LOL

Whoops been a while since my last post. Brandon R went to Snowbird UT to go skiing with a bunch of buddies. I thought Colorado is the choice destination for skiiers.

Oh well what do I know?

Anyways he checked into a lot of Salt Lake City venues today so I thought he was heading home but no airport check-ins. Who knows when he'll be home. I think I'll get my period tmw! just in time for his return home! LOL

I made $500 today, possibly $575 tomorrow. Not so bad! I need to work on three returns and an expense receipt project. OOOH what fun!

I need to get more new clients - not sure how I'll get them though.

OK I got back from Ido Sushi in West Village. I had sushi dinner for two with appetizer and a glass of wine (Sapporo beer for my bro). Not so bad! Very full.

I went to Pure Food and Wine last Friday with Chiemi and was not full and not satisfied with my raw vegan meal. Won't go there and prolly won't go to Candle either! Staying away from vegan places.

I will go to Tu Casa on Steinway and 30th Avenue tmw night with meetup group. It's only 2 blocks away from me, I have to try it out. Then Thai food in Queens Blvd on Thursday night. No plans this weekend except finish John's expense project and Little Feet's tax returns. Maybe catch Real Madrid-Real Betis match Sat at 4PM. Pug meetup at 11AM on Sunday in Animal Haven. Will do 7:45AM mass.

Anyways will try to post every week. Sorry for the long delay since my last post. Been working at taxes a lot!

See you later alligator!

Tax season update

I am blogging from my office. 224 West 35th Street, Suite 1208, between 7th and 8th Avenues. Not so bad!

I got a call from Brandon R on Monday at 1:17PM and he wanted to meet I guess then. But I was free at 3PM and he didn't call. And then he calls at 5-ishPM how fucking messed up is that. Didn't hear from him yesterday (which was good because I was busy). Not busy tonight.

I wanted to take the day off so I rescheduled Adam to tmw and then Patrick, a client from last year, emailed me and so I am in the office today. 4PM appt. Shd be done by 4:40-ish. Not so bad.

Might make 1050-1350 this week! Not so bad! And it's not even March yet! YAY GO TAX SEASON GO ME!

Bad timing with Brandon

See I was free after 4PM today and Brandon didn't contact me. He will contact me on the nights when I'm busy. LOL.

I have two meetups tmw. One pug meetup *(which is why I joined meetup in the first place). Church at 7:45AM tmw. I will also do a Real Madrid-Levante meetup at 3:30pm. I had a tentative corp tax meeting in Westchester but that will be rescheduled to a future date.

No plans after 5:30pm maybe Brandon will call me tmw night.

Then Monday 1PM client, 5:15PM dental appt, my last appt unless I get more cavities or root canals. Knock on wood, no!

Tuesday, 3 appts. 12PM, 1PM, Meetup with NY Ethnic Group for Valentine's Day, Vietnamese restaurant in Chinatown, that seems fun, 30 people signed up

Thursday 1 off-site appt on 93rd and Broadway Starbucks

These tax appts I am booking are mostly last year's clients. Not so bad. But I want new clients like the S Corp in Westchester. Here's hoping I get more new business in the coming weeks.

I will see Josh for dinner at Ah! Chihuahuas in Midtown East this Friday at 7PM (near my old apt on 51st and 1st). It's on 3rd and 53rd. That's a groupon deal, not so bad!

Then Saturday at 8PM at the Met Opera House in Lincoln Center I have an opera Ernani with Emma. Balcony box seats, $47.50. Not so bad.

No plans on Sunday although that can change. I wanna see that movie This Means War. Maybe I will see that or Safe House with my bro.

Wedding plans

I bet if I marry Brandon, it'll be a huge wedding! He has like 800 friends on Facebook. He's from money and makes a lot of money.

The only trick with him is his age. He is 26, turning 27 in August. Far away from the age of 30 when a guy might want to settle. Also he's Jewish not sure how important it is for him to marry some Jewish girl.

OK I have a pinterest page. www.pinterest.com/may321. there's a wedding board. hint, hint

Brandon's stalking me

OK I'm being stalked. Brandon called me on Wed night at 7PM right before meeting my friend Chiemi for burger dinner in East Village. Tonight he called at 4PM twice and then when I didn't pick up he called at 5:20PM. I picked up and we chatted. I am busy tonight meeting Augusto for Indian dinner I'm treating him to because he lent me his phone number to use for Craigslist.

I wasn't busy yesterday and he didn't call. Anyways I told him I wasn't busy this weekend but who knows he might be going to Vermont to ski with his buddies. who knows?

He tweeted his friend about going to the Brooklyn Bowl last night but he went to Irving Plaza. Weird, eh?

Also he's asking abt anal sex. That's great. he's like humongous and now he wants that. That will be painful. Not picking up his blocked calls anymore. LOL

Another Brandon tidbit

Oh and on a more interesting note every time I mention going out Brandon asks me if it's to fuck some random guy or a date. So if he wasn't at all interested in me he wouldn't ask, right? I am really stretching for some hope here. LOL

I just had to include that tip.

OK I might go to the pet store in the East Village and get some frozen dog food. Yumm

Brandon update

I met up with Chiemi for a burger, side and beer for two for $19. Not so bad! Brandon called me at 7PM. He asked me for my number a week ago so I thought he lost my number. Strange. Anyways, I was busy so another time I guess.

But he did ask me to meet up with him a week ago when he was supposedly in Boston. Isn't that strange?

I will prolly see him this weekend as I am not busy this weekend. Not that excited about meeting him. He is too young and Jewish for me. His sisters are 23 and 21, for Chrissake, one's in college still.

It'll be nice to date him. Even if he's only 5'11 according to those dating sites he belongs to.

Giants win Super Bowl

YAY GIANTS ARE SUPER BOWL 46 CHAMPS! ELI DID IT AGAIN AND IS ELITE.

The Patriots lost. The final score 21-17.

Brandon was in Boston. Not sure if he is a Patriots fan or what but he did say he was in a Giants celebration in Boston. Not sure if he's there for work or if I'll ever hook up with him or ever get into a relationship. He's too young, too young. Keep repeating that!

LOL

Need to get more clients

Update this week

I've fallen off the exercise band wagon. I will recommit this week. I will try to sign up for Gregg Cook's spin class at 19th and Broadway on Monday. I have two or three tax appts on Monday. One on Fri and three undetermined ones. I will try and get my business tax software this month and mail my amended tax returns so I can get my tax refund.

I heard from Brandon last Sat but didn't want to meet so I made up some excuse. Haven't heard from him since. He is in Chappaqua/Mt Kisco area now or this afternoon. Too bad for a mild winter. He really does enjoy skiing.

Oh well, meeting Chiemi for dinner at Black Iron Burger. $19 for two burgers, two sides, and two beers. Not so bad. Dentist appt on Monday. Meeting Augusto for an Indian meal somewhere on the UES on Friday. Chill weekend - Real Madrid game on Sunday Feb 12. Meeting a CU applicant on Sat in Bayside.

OK off to play word with games with my bro. I'm improving!

Super Bowl Sunday tomorrow. Not sure if I should mix up my schedule and watch from a different locale like my parents' house. GO GIANTS AND ELI! Beat Tom Brady and Patriots convincingly! Will try to do mass 7:45AM. Then Giants white manicure in the morning. 12:30PM and 4PM tax appts. Busy day tmw!

Brandon's baaaack

OK the last time I heard from Brandon R was October 31. It's been almost three months later but he contacted me on yahoo messenger. Strangely enough on twitter he checked into Boston places but he said he wanted to meet now. Which means he's fake checking into Boston places. WEIRD

Anyways I have to meet someone at 4:30PM and then going home and then maybe concert by Deadbeat Darling tonight so not meeting Brandon tonight.

It's interesting to see he resurfaced. I knew he wouldn't completely disappear.

He said why would I care abt him when I said it was nice to know he was alive. I just agreed. He's my ideal bf besides the 8 year age difference and him being Jewish. those two minor things.

I became a fan of his sister's. At first they have different last names so I thought they were cousins. But I'm pretty sure they are siblings.

He just signed off yahoo, maybe it will be another three months before he contacts me. Who knows?

He is on a dating site with his ny8685 which is his gmail email address. He lists himself as 5'11. And I thought he was 6'. None of the guys I've hooked up with was 6' except maybe Jonathan Tootell. He had a nice body!

I am so Internet stalking Brandon. I know he has two sisters and parents. His mom's an artist. Dad's a dentist.

I have to stop googling him. LOL

I will post more if I hear from Brandon more. LOL. Back to being in love with the wonderboy.

So we are back in the swing of the new year 2012. I got paid on my $410 project and my $250 project. Not so bad to usher in the new year!

Still miss Brandon R! He didn't check into anything today. Hope he is okay. Hope I haven't heard the end of him

Getting off all medication!

Tonight I took 2 2o mg tablets of Geodon. I have been only on 60 mg of Geodon for the past week. I will take 40 mg of Geodon until Jan 10, then I'll switch to 20 mg until Jan 20 and then I'll go completely off it. I think this is possible because I don't drink any caffeine (no coffee for 28 days and no soda for at least 20 days!). I sometimes occasionally drink Snapple Iced Tea but tea caffeine is better, more antioxidants.

I will cancel my Dr Sherman appt and be doctor-free and medicine-free for the first time since November 2007!

I stopped taking the Zoloft medication in late 2009 and I only needed the Geodon to go to sleep. But now that I have no job, tax season is not until mid-February and I can sleep longer hours because I have no caffeine in my system I don't need Geodon to go to sleep! I hope this 40 mgs is enough! Patrick moved to Chicago, no Brandon or even innocuous clueless Davey is out of the picture. So no guys to get paranoid over. Perfect time to end this medication addiction.

Wish me luck!

Update

So sorry I haven't posted sooner. Not much to report. Went on an interview on Tuesday and got rejected. Didn't really want the job as it requires lots of overtime all year long. I just want to work 40-50 hrs, not 60-65 hours. No Saturdays for me!

Anyways Brandon has been busy and I haven't heard from him since Halloween. Not that I want or crave sex anymore. Also he's too young for me and Jewish for me anyways. Just have to keep reminding myself.

I came to the Starbucks to see if I can download iTunes but it is not working so I will wait to next Wednesday when I go home to my parents and can leave it on all day long to load up.

I have been going to the gym a lot these days. Planet Fitness is open 24 hours from Monday to Friday. I still have insomnia so I've been going to Duane Reade and buying stuff. Not good for my wallet.

There is this one audit project that I'm not doing so well and I may have to turn down if I don't get the workpapers to see what the previous auditor did. But that's potentially $820 (two audit projects) and I can sure use the money this holiday season.

I have been attending a lot of spin classes and yoga and Pilates classes at Equinox. Finally making the most of my $178 membership fee. I even ran 1.5 miles yesterday but I think I will lay off the gym for the next few days as it hurts to walk down stairs. I still prefer Robert Pennino's spin classes the most. Followed by Damien and Constance. I don't like Jeff Martin who sings along to the songs and Jason who talks about the news and politics. Don't need to hear that.

I am going to catch the Q101 bus to go home and then go to the soccer game at Mr Dennehy's Real Madrid versus Valencia. #1 vs #3. Should be a good match.

Then tonight I am going to go see an opera, Rodelinda. It is from 8 to 11:50. Tomorrow I might do a spin class if I am not sore or skip it. Church depending on whether or not I take that class and then going to knit a scarf if it kills me. The blue one for my mom. And then a white one for Augusto. Need to go to Staples to photocopy the pattern so I can bring it along with me.

I figured my budget out and since Steve owes me some money and I'm getting unemployment I think I can survive to Sept 2013 doing my own tax business. Not so bad.

So a week and a half has passed by and I have not seen or heard from Brandon. I didn't like the sex and he wasn't asking me out on any dates. He is 26 and Jewish. Need to move on. Gonna die with a dog and maybe my own child if I can afford one.

Irony

How ironic. Brandon's at Gilette Stadium in Foxboro, Massachusetts for the Giants-Patriots game. I was contemplating going too but I have a tax seminar in Manhattan Monday morning so I decided against it.

He's funny. Not sure which team he's rooting for since he went to college in Boston.

I have 3.5 full-day seminars for the CPE. Monday Nov 7, Wed Nov 16, Fri Nov 18, and Mon Nov 21.

I wonder if I'll see him this week. Ultra-bored.

One of my clients paid me 300/1200 owed, so 900 is still owed.

Two nights in a row

OK, yesterday I met my bro in Flushing for some pho for lunch. I wasn't that hungry and didn't eat that much. Steve said he would accompany me tight- and yarn-shopping if I paid for his cigarettes and dinner.

Then Brandon IM'ed me around 3pm asking me to meet him for more sex. I told him later.

I got some white yarn at Knitty City and then a McRib meal with an extra McRib sandwich for

$1, not bad!

Then I headed home with my bro to watch Game 7. Brandon contacted me while I was on the N train and asked to meet.

So I took a cab from Astoria to his place on East 50th and Second Ave. $17.25 with tip for those wondering. We had some sex and then I jerked him off. It still hurt. Anyways, he said he'll be gone for who knows what so two nights in a row followed by a 3-4 week absence. who knows where it comes with him? And my feeling that there might be more is dwindling. oh well, a fuck buddy is good enough, right?

I went to a costume kickball party.. where they play drinking ping pong games and card games. Remind me not to go to another kickball party. Chiemi brought surgical scrubs as a costume for me.

It finally happened!

OK, Brandon and I had sex tonight. And boy it did hurt! I am not sure how big he is but he must be at least 8 inches....... I guess Patrick was not that big because I don't recall the sex with Patrick as hurting.

And the funny thing abt that was he went with my suggestion on the position.

But he did realize I did not enjoy it. I don't think I'll go on yahoo anymore. if he calls me I'll meet him again but I'm not going on Yahoo to solicit it.

The cool thing is that I got home in time for Big Bang Theory. I am on Season One, Disc Two for Big Bang Theory. I am done with Season Two of Gossip Girl.

Rangers-Cardinals game tonight. Game 6. I hope the Rangers can beat the Cardinals before it goes to game 7 in St Louis.
