Away with the BAD!

So today was a difficult day. I cut out one of my good friends. She just wasn't supportive of my life decisions and she made me say negative things to her out of spite so it was just not healthy.

Anyways, moving on!

Davey's coming to NYC soon. That should be fun. I think I'll take him to the Thai place since that is going to expire soon. I hope he makes it for my birthday.

Everything's going well though, I'm getting a $250 check in the mail. And I have $150 in upcoming project.

I signed up for elance and bid on 4-5 more projects so I hope I get those.

Nothing else is new with me.

I'm meeting my friend Josh for dinner tonight at Bann. It's on me because he got dinner last time.

Back Together with Davey

OMG, I broke up with Brian on Monday July 26 and three days later on Thursday July 29, Davey emailed me and asked if I wanted to visit him in MD. No apology, just saying if I wanted to come down, he'll pick me up in Baltimore. That he was willing to "forgive past transgressions." I emailed him back saying was he really going to forgive the mean horrible email I sent him. He responded later that night and said if it was said out of spite, he could forgive it.

Anyways, after dating Brian for two weeks, I realized I still like Davey. the only minuses are his age and he is living in MD. But I decided to go down to MD on Saturday and I had a blast. He bought me a bikini from Hollister and didn't make me pay for it :) since he threw away the bikini I left at his apt after that mean email. We went to Balducci's and he got me this expensive wagyu ribeye steak. We got home and took a nap then he cooked me dinner. It was the best steak I've ever had. Anyways, we watched Hot Tub Time Machine but 30 minutes into the movie I fell asleep. Boy was I tired. then we went to sleep, got up around 9am and had some coffee. It was a relaxing weekend. He said when I come down in the fall, he'll take me to DC. So I'm taking that as in when I go to see him in September. :)

Anyways, he said it's his turn to come and visit me. So he hasn't given me a specific weekend yet but maybe in 3-4 weeks. Not sure if I'm going to cook for him, since he's such a great cook. Maybe we can go to Rayuela, that's a perfect date place. I'll treat him since he is driving up to see me.

So I'm debating whether or not to tell my therapist that I broke up with him for those three weeks. I'm leaning to just saying he came up to see me. I don't want her to judge the relationship like my other two friends, Ka Ming and Jacqui not approving. Only Jackie is not judging my relationship, which I'm grateful for.

I got up at 3AM today after going to sleep around 8:30PM, so I sent Davey an email ard 4AM and he's yet to respond. I think he checks his email before he goes to work and after he goes to work since he doesn't have yahoo mail at work. I hope he responds by tonight.

Heading to my parents and Jones Beach today. Then Yankees-BoSox game at 7PM with Jackie. She got these $75 seats for her bday on August 18, so looking forward to that game between the Yankees and Detroit Tigers :)

Just wanted to say I'm back in a relationship and I'm happy. I could see myself falling for him. He is debating on whether to buy or rent in NYC so once he makes his mind up, he'll be moving to NYC. Can't wait to hang out with him more!

Busy weekend

I had a busy weekend. Let me start it by going through what happened Friday.

I went to my first Yankees-Bosox game. I want to go to Boston and attend a Yankees-Bosox game there, but I digress. It was a great pitchers' duel between Josh Beckett and AJ Burnett. Somewhere in the 7th inning, I wondered how many innings this event will go through. I stayed until the 14th inning, and then I had to leave because I had to catch the 1:19am train home, if I missed it I would have to wait for the 3:20am train home. The game ended 10 minutes after I left with A-Rod hitting a 2 run walk-off home run in the bottom of the 15th inning.

So after spending 5:30 hrs, I spent a relaxing Saturday at home. I helped kill, clean and then I cooked crab with egg, scallion and ginger. It came out quite nicely making me reconsider myself as a bad cook.

Saturday night was busy, I went to my cousin's daughter's banquet party. She was barely 3 months old. Her name is Sandrine. Not a fan of her name. It rhymes with gangrine, but whatever. Not my child. I stayed for an hour and then jetted off to visit my friends Chiemi and Jacqui at Chez Jacqueline, got the lobster risotto and chardonnay. I enjoyed the wine, which surprised me I don't normally like wine.

I luckily caught the 11:19pm train back home by 10 seconds. Got home 20 after midnight as they ran out of taxicabs at the train station.

I then got about 4 hours of sleep because I had to wake up to catch the 5:57am train to Penn Station to meet the bus going to DC at 7:15am. You see I had bought a ticket to see Cristiano Ronaldo play soccer with the Real Madrid team against DC United at FedEx Field in Landover, MD. 4.5 hr bus trip culminated in a parking lot barbecue of hamburgers and hot dogs. Went with the Real Madrid meetup group. Ronaldo only played the first half but I was in heaven watching him play for 45 minutes. He left after the first half, but Real Madrid scored three times to win it 3-0 over DC United. It was a great match if you were a Real Madrid supporter.

Then it took abt 5 hours to get back home at 10:45pm. I got home again at midnight, just to see my dad pull in from work.

This week is a chill week. Just have lunch plans with a former co-worker on Thursday.

Also it's day 9 of my running sabbatical. One more day of inertia and then I get to return to running on Wednesday Aug 12. I am debating on whether or not to ask Marty to go running with me this weekend. I am thinking I should go alone to test my fitness, don't want to drag him out and then stop in the middle of the run. But I haven't seen him in 2 weeks and I miss him. I think I'm going to fall hard for him. For however much I liked Rich, I was never in love with him. He was way too conservative. But with Marty, I can feel myself slowly falling for him. He walks with me when I need to walk during our runs, he doesn't abandon me. How nice is that? I even wrapped his gift ahead of his Sept 18 bday. I gave him the extra copy of Running Within I accidentally purchased before I even met him. It's not at all personal so I most likely will give it to him for his birthday. And it's not like I bought it for him. That and a $3 map to Central Park. So my whole gift to him was $3. I found my Central Park map, on another brighter note. I love that map.

Okay this is a long enough entry, I'll write more when I start running and keep you posted on whether or not I am doing the long run on my own this weekend or not.

This week in my planner

Rooftop bar on Friday with Jacqui and Chiemi.
