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.

long time since last post, trying to post more!

It's been 11 days since my last post. I sometimes remind myself I need to post an update but then I never get around to it.

So I have not reconciled with Davey.. He sent me a pic of a coffee cup and red velvet cupcake, weird! I might take Kate's advice and send a pic of a plate of buffalo wings and a bottle of gin saying bottoms up! I will do that this weekend at the bar from watching the Giants-Panthers game tomorrow.

OK my dog is cuddled up beside me, how cute. He missed me all day.

I just got back from an all-Beethoven program at a Mostly Mozart Festival, lol.

Tmrw I have a brunch meetup at Cookshop then a 4:10PM Yankees-Rays game. maybe catching the Giants-Panthers game at Brother Jimmy's. Sunday I have a pug meetup in the morning then a 3PM Knitting workshop at Lion Brand Studio.

Monday I'm watching the Jets-Houston Texan game at a bar in Manhattan, TBD.

Then a dentist appt on Thursday. My new old housekeeper from Washington Heights is cleaning my apt at 5:30PM on Friday. Then Deadbeat Darling concert at 11PM. Photo shoot with Paddy in Central Park but there's a threat of thunderstorms that day so I might reschedule to next Sat August 27.

I got a root canal done and I now need five more visits to the dentist to get the post and crown done.

Mets losing. Wright sucks. Bay on fire.

Mittens knitting Part 2 on Sunday August 21. I need to get a rain date Mets voucher by the end of this year. It leaves me August 20 to maybe do a Mets game. What kind of seats should I buy? Should I just get a single ticket? So many questions, so little answers.

Took my medicine at 11PM, won't be sleepy til 1AM.

Week of July 25

My boss was away from July 18 to July 25. He was back today! And now I'm busy again! LOL It was nice having a vacation from him as he puts it! LOL

I went into work today at 5:30AM. Took the 5:05AM Q101 bus to work. Then I washed my hair and got a yogurt parfait and venti mocha frappaccino (got my 15 stars and free drink from Starbucks). Then it was 6:25AM when I got to work. And I finished up all my work yesterday so I had nothing to do but clean up my desk and label my file folders! Boy I had a lot of down time before my boss got in at 9:20AM!

But then it got busy. I left promptly at 5:30PM and left my iPhone at work so I had to go back and the N/Q trains to Astoria were delayed so I didn't get home til 6:30PM.

Now I'm struggling to stay away til at least 9:30PM so I don't get up at 3:30AM. Went to bed at 8:30PM yesterday.

Can't find my Blockbuster DVD. Will reorder it from them. I keep reporting stuff missing. I wonder when they'll discontinue my service.

Today is a chill week. Tomorrow I wanna go to Knitting Doctor and get some help casting on. Also wanna go to mass tmrw morn to make up for missing Sunday mass. Thursday I wanna hit a yoga class in the morning and then get dinner at Sprig with Josh. Dentist at 6:30PM on Friday then going to get some pho from Pho Bang in Flushing afterwards. Sat 12PM I have a photo shoot planned with Paddy at Central Park. that should be fun. Sun I will go to church in the morning and then I have a Knitting 2 class at Lion Brand Studio.

Next Monday will go to my friend's sample sale at Decode 1.8. $35 dresses. Tuesday I have a Mets-Marlins game. No plans to go with anyone as of yet. Then tentative dinner plans with Chiemi later that week at Bento Burger in the East Village so I can give her the Yankees ticket. My bro installed new bookcases and I moved the contents along with the Yankees tickets elsewhere so I have to look for them. Not good.

I will try to add some more photos to my web blogging so it gets more interesting.

I also didn't post last week, will try and remember to post an entry at least once a week.

I will try to cook baked sausage and pork ziti this Friday.

Cooking

My new hobby is cooking. I'm going to knit sporadically and hope to finish Paddy's sweater by Mar 2010, but full steam ahead on cooking. I'm also not going to go out to dinner anymore at restaurants, instead I'll check out menus for cool dishes to cook myself. I'll still go to brunch tho, maybe once every three months. I'm hell-bent on saving money next year. I'm even going to take a Sushi and Sake 101 class at Sushi Samba to learn how to make my own sushi.

I learnt how to knit last night at a knitting workshop. I feel so proud to have mastered the knit stitch. Next Monday I will learn the purl and how to cast off. I can make scarves :)

Purl


My therapist recommended sleeping at a later time to combat me waking up so early and going to work. But that would mean finding things to do at night to keep me occupied.

Hence, I am going to start knitting.

I am going to take classes at Purl, 137 Sullivan Street. The three classes are $125 in total. Maybe Caroline, a colleague from work, will take it with me.
