PJS gets a blog

Hmmm, just discovered my nemesis who will remain nameless because I don't want to get him started again, has started a blog page. What will he write?

Anyways, I am not taking down my blog about him.

Looks like he convinced one clueless girl to date him. I wonder if he beats her too! Some girls are so desperate! I wonder if she can use the Internet. Well she was fairly warned. Only a complete idiot would date him. Someone with low self-esteem. He is a pathologically compulsive violent guy. Hope he doesn't put her in the hospital like he did with me and another one of his true gf's. He was never my bf. I would never be treated like that by a bf, that would just be low self-esteem.

What's strange is that the pic of the two of them is so low-quality, it makes me wonder if that's really his gf.... can't he take a better picture? LOL

Oh well not going to waste my time with his like. I just hope he doesn't refute that nights' events. He is a violent guy with psychotic tendencies. He shouldn't be allowed to date. Can't believe he convinced a girl to date him. She must have a lower IQ than he has.

Well I hope this relationship doesn't end in an arrest. LOL

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.

News about my raise!

I got an 8K raise. 19% raise. You do the math! Now I have to wait to December to get another review.

I have so much work to do. I might leave for work at 5AM tomorrow.

Taking a pilates class Saturday morning, then hitting IKEA to look at bookcases. I want to get one with a drawer. Dentist appt to fix 2 cavities on my left side of the mouth. Still have two cavities on the right side of my mouth that will be another visit. Sunday brunch at Goat Town with three other brunch'ers, then Mets-Phillies game! Maybe try to get a manicure after the game.

Need to get some pancetta and some other ingredients to make baked sausage ziti! I need to test my oven to see if it works. I wanna bake a maple pecan tart for the office as an appreciatory gift for my new found raise!

My raise!? in only 6 weeks working!

I'm going to try and post something each week. I am going to bake ziti sometime this week after I get pancetta from Zabar's. This is to test my oven to see if I can bake a maple pecan tart.

So Joel, the general manager at GMC Parking, who is the hiring manager and hired me told me at the start of the job that I will get a review in three months and six months. And the president told me over the phone that if I'm successful I will see a rapid rise in my salary. Joel told me before he went on vacation that when he gets back he'll ask Mr. Chapman about a raise and I don't have to wait three months. He didn't mention anything to me all day so I finally asked him at the end of the day. And he said he has to talk to the president and my boss. So I really hope I get a raise of 5-8K this time. I am not making that much money so I really need it. If I get two 2 8 K I will still not be making what I made in AIG. But the guy I replaced made 90K so I am hoping I get around 65K after a year or 18 months, that will be nice!

Blaise told me last week that I am doing well there and he foresees me doing a good job. That's a vote of confidence! So I am really hoping for a good raise this time around!

I hope it happens fast! the president is leaving for a vacation after Tuesday and my boss is away on Thursday and all of next week.

Got a new job end of May and really busy these days

I've been meaning to update my blog. I saw Davey three weeks ago. He came down to NYC. That went well. I should be seeing him in August in DC.

I got a new job! It's at Chapman Consulting, sister company of GMC Parking. I started on May 31. And it's going well. It's a real estate company that owns a lot of parking garages in Manhattan. Not as big as MPG. But about 60 garages. Not so bad. I am slated for a raise in 1 week so that will be interesting to see how much more they give me given I've worked there for only 4-5 weeks.

I have been super-busy. Jacqi and Jackie have been replaced by Augusto and Josh. I am still friends with Chiemi. I am going to see a foreign Asian film from the Asian Film Festival with Josh on Thursday. That's following a 7PM yoga class. The Sleeping Beauty ballet on Wednesday. I got dress circle seats, so that should be good. Tuesday I am scheduled to take a pilates class unless I have to work late. And on Friday I have a dentist appointment. Saturday I have a Pilates class in the morning followed by a Yankees game then Deadbeat Darling concert at night. Sunday I have to go to church around 12pm followed by a 2pm 3 hr knitting in the round class. Then I will be headed to a dinner at Nick and Toni's followed by a movie Transformers hopefully in IMAX with Augusto.

Busy week!

And then I am getting new bookcases next week after I get paid.

BOGGLES THE MIND!

Some people's updates on Facebook boggle my mind. For instance this police officer in upstate NY and his wife who doesn't work and stays at home with their newborn son, how much can he make? They bought a house and she got a treadmill. I'm thinking he makes like 50k.... anyways, it boggles my mind!

Then this dance instructor said he got 2700 Lasik surgery last year. He's a dance instructor at Bally's, how can he afford that?

BOGGLES THE MIND!

#1 Mets fan

As of the May 7 Mets game against the Dodgers, I switched allegiances to being a Mets fan. I just live closer to Mets' Citi Fields.

Trying to learn the Mets lineup and pitching more!

More to come!

One of my former friends is blogging every week so I think I should do the same.

My weekend was nice. I had brunch with my new brunch group at Goat Town in East Village. I saw DJ again and I hung out with Emmy and Linda and two others for a total of 6 brunchers. Not so bad, even though 12 people signed up.

Osama was killed, which I'm happy about but life goes on.

I'm leaving at 1:45PM for Mr Dennehy's to watch the Real Madrid-Barcelona match. It's at Barcelona so I expect a blowout!

Tomorrow night is a sushi meetup group at Ko Restaurant. Time for celebrating the month of May is it's my birthday month!

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.

Tax Season Going on Strong!

The Knicks beat the Orlando Magic in overtime. Thrilling game!

Well Davey says he's coming to NYC to visit. We shall see. He's turned MIA lately.

I have one bookkeeping client tomorrow at 11AM, getting paid by one tax client tomorrow at around 5PM and then getting some receipts from a third client to type up into a spreadsheet for him. Wednesday I have an 8:30AM appt and an 11AM appt. Both tax clients. Thursday I have a 12PM tax client. No appts so far on Friday. One bookkeeping client at 10AM on Sat. A double client (boyfriend, girlfriend) at 4PM on Sunday. And it hasn't reached the midway of the week and I'm booked this week solidly.

I have 4722 in the bank account, but I have a 130 ticket, 1100 rent, 250 rent check outstanding. I wanna have 5-6K after tax season.

Have to get up at 9AM tomorrow. I should make my office hours 12PM to 7PM.

Paddy's being finicky lately. I feed him so much food he should be happy he has a mummy like me.

Update in March, BUSY tax season

Has it been almost two months since I posted an update? Bad me!

So tax season is getting busy. Have at least 5-7 returns left to prepare. Meeting 2 clients per day from tmrw (Thursday) to Saturday then one client on Sunday and one client on Tuesday.

But I am still going out. I am going to dinner and an opera featuring Natalie Dessay! Yup Lucia di Lammermoor. I thought it would be different actors but Dessay will be there! That's my favorite opera of all time, when she goes mad. That's the truth.. Then my grade school friends will be at the R Bar, not sure if I'll go down there after the opera ends at 11:40pm. We shall see!

I emailed Davey abt a 4-day trip to MD on March 17 to March 20. But maybe I'll get clients then and not be able to take the time off. We shall see!

Now been following the Knicks since last Wednesday when they got Carmelo Anthony and Billups. They won tonight, going 3-2 since the trade. I will try to get Knicks tickets in the coming weeks.

On the bus

So I'm on the Greyhound bus, using their Wifi. They don't have outlets though. If I went to DC, they would have outlets and Wifi.

I'm on the way to visit Davey in MD. I kinda bugged out on him again because I didn't hear back from him after he invited me down at 5PM. He responded back at 7:45PM. But all is well now.

I'm not going to ask when he'll move to NYC or why he doesn't come and visit me. I will just ask if he is free Good Friday weekend. That's reasonable, right?

It's sleeting snow and rain in NJ. I think it's still snowing in MD. I wonder what he'll be making for dinner tonight.

Got a new job!!!

So I finally got a job as an accountant/bookkeeper at Morgane Le Fay. I started on December 22. I am still claiming unemployment until last week since I don't get paid through Paychex until this week. I need all the money I can get... Anyways, I think I am born lucky. I have never been without any money in my life. I was employed at Morgan Stanley from 2000 to 2006, Wyeth from Jan 06 to May 06. Cantor Fitzgerald from May 06 to September 06. AIG from October 06 to July 08, Equinox from Jul 08 to Sept 08, then RBC from Sept 08 to Feb 09. Then I was unemployed from Feb 09 to Dec 10. 22 months I was on unemployment. Then when I earned 10K working for AccountEdge my own company.

Now I'm set. I have Adam's income, Commondesk on weekends and evenings and this Morgane Le Fay job plus my tax return and audit work income from AccountEdge. I can renew my lease when it comes due at the end of May. Even with roaches and the lack of the buzzer working, I don't think I can move to another building without leaving a substantial deposit. My credit history is poor and my income from the job at Morgane Le Fay is not high enough to warrant me to moving to a place that costs $1400 or more.

Last weekend in MD

So I was invited by Davey up this weekend, took the bus to Baltimore then transferred to Frederick so I got there around 3pm. He picked me up at 3:10pm and we hung out til 6pm whereupon he had to leave to go to a work dinner. He was gone til midnight! I was pissed so he slept on the sofa for part of the night. But we did end up having sex the morning after so we didn't break up over it.

He said he'll come to NYC in January. So we shall see! I have Carmen the opera on January 8, he prolly won't come on New Year's Eve. So he'll most likely come on January 15 which is 8 weeks (2 months) away. December is not a good month with Christmas and all. Anyways I wanna go up there Valentine's Day weekend on a Friday night and he said he'll show me around on Saturday and I can go home on Sunday. That will be in February.

Davey wants some more nude photos but my camera went missing. this is the fourth or fifth camera I've bought. Luckily the price went down to 99 so the total is 118, plus the carrying case that I lost (20) and an SD card (16), it'll be like the cost of it before at $150.

I was thinking about breaking up with Davey and going out with Howard. But he's 5'8 and has two teenage kids. Also he runs and wants to run with me and I haven't run in 4-5 months! I am not about to go running again for a guy. Davey doesn't make me run and he's 5'10 so my kids might be taller, LOL. So I think I will continue dating Davey and hope he moves to NYC sometime next year.

next weekend!

So Davey might be coming up to NYC for work this week so next weekend looks good to finally meet up. It's been over 3 months since I last saw him. He's also gonna think up some new poses for me to send.

I got drunk last night at Cheryl's birthday party. I had 5.5 martinis. Anyways, not gonna drink again anytime soon. The drinks were half-off so I only spent $36 on 6 drinks. $5 for the martini and $1 tip. At least I just used up all my cash in my wallet, and didn't charge anything to my card.

update...

so I called Davey a lot on Friday and he got pissed. So much he said if I sent another text or call he would consider us done. haha, so I stopped. anyways I sent him an email tonight apologizing and he wrote back saying he doesn't believe me when I say I won't freak out again. oh well. I haven't freaked out the same though. all different ways.

Maybe he'll come this weekend when I have my period and have my Sat night concert to go to at Alice Tully Hall.

Anyways, it's scoreless in Game 5 of the World Series. Giants up 3-1 against the Rangers. Even though I love the Bushes, I am rooting for the Giants. Go Lincecum!

Update on Davey weekend

So Davey got sick this weekend and couldn't come. He did email me both on Sat and Sun showing a great desire to come. Oh well. I think he has his daughter this Halloween weekend. And I bought a classical music concert ticket for the night of Nov 6 so not sure if he wants to go to that. So instead of Rayuela we can go to a restaurant in the Lincoln Center area.

So maybe he'll come on Sat Nov 6 and we'll go to the concert then grab dinner in the Lincoln Center area. Dan Sushi? PJ Clarke's? I have to figure a good place to go to then. :)

Looks like Game 1 of World Series will be won by Texas Rangers and Cliff Lee. leading 2-0 with Cliff Lee on the mound for Texas against Lincecum.

Oct 23-24 weekend

So Davey promised next weekend. The weekend of Oct 23-24. That worked best because I went to a cello/piano concert at Alice Tully Hall on Saturday with my mom. That was good. My mom liked it more than the paid concert that I took her to the philharmonic last year. This concert was free. Definitely a plus to be part of the Classical Music Meetup group where I heard abt the free concert.

Anyways, I am planning to go ice skating this weekend and go to Rayuela and Verlaine for dinner and drinks, respectively. Fun weekend! He'll meet Paddy!

this may be it

so Davey will let me know tmrw most likely if he's coming to NYC this weekend. Not sure if he has his daughter this weekend. And I want to go to a concert at 2pm on Saturday. Maybe next weekend. Who knows? Will keep you updated.

Breaking News

Breaking news: Davey has a daughter. Not sure how old she is. But apparently he was married years ago. Which is news to me. Anyways he had his daughter this weekend. I'm giving him until next weekend to show his face in NYC. He better bring flowers too!
