[94] extremely bored so i'm here

  • 04/13/09 3:16 am

hiya everyone! looks like i haven't been here in quite a few months! i hope everyone is doing well and that everyone enjoyed their Easter=)

SO! let's see what i've been up to...

the video store i've been working at for the past 7yrs closes it's doors this Wednesday!=/ the lease was up and the landlord didn't want to renew it. he also raised the rent. only landlords would do such a thing in this economy! a lot of customers have been coming in and saying how much they'll miss us (especially since we were the last video store in the neighborhood!). a few customers gave me their numbers/email so they could keep in touch with me, which i found surprising but touched. Brad called me yesterday and said he was going to finish up the week so i didn't need to come in. i'm sad about that because i really wanted to say a last "good-bye". i think maybe i'll stop in on Wednesday.

so that news of the store closing came about a month ago... i didn't really do any job searching (shame on me), but Marc (the owner of the store) offered me a job at the video store on the East Side or join his mortgage banker team... eventually i took the mortgage gig. i haven't started and i know NOTHING about it! haha! but i'm excited! i'll be making a lot more than at the store and it's a great opportunity.

Elliott and i are still going strong=) he quit his job at Rockefeller Center shortly before Thanksgiving and has since been looking for another job. his mom knows people at Teachers College so hopefully he can get something there... and it's only a block away from his place!

his sister moved out last week and now we're in the process of looking for a female roommate. the place is still his mom's, so she has most of the say of who it will be. we're asking for $900/mo and for what Elliott and i wanted for the roommate we thought it was very fair. unfortunately because his mom has most of the say, we're still going to have to endure family visits from time to time. including a week-long stay from 2 family friends! the apartment is NOT that big! oy. i can't wait to get my own place.

what else...

Gary and Eileen broke up before Christmas. i won't get into it, but it was rough. they're not talking... Gary's choice. Gary seems to be better off (although he frequently complains about being single) and Eileen had a few "crazy lady" moments, but she seems to be doing a lot better.

okay i think that's a good enough update. hopefully i'll be doing more entries cuz goodness knows there's only so much time i can wait for something to happen on Facebook!=P

hiya everyone!

i'm the Kiwi Profile of the Day!!! woohoo!

anyhoot. i missed a day yesterday, but it's okay because i just wanted to see if i could get a yellow month in October and i did! YAY!

so yesterday i went to H&M at Rockefeller Center to drop off my application. they were putting up the tree so i took a pic:


took the train down to Chinatown to my obgyn and i know it's like this at all doctor's offices that making an appointment doesn't mean you'll get to see the doctor at that time, but i had to wait over an hour to see her!! ARGH! i guess i should be used to it by now, but that's just ridiculous!

well when i did get in, it was quick and painless... not to say it wasn't uncomfortable. since i don't have insurance, my doc gives me free birth control until my next visit. thank goodness for that. but the visit costs $150, so that sucked.

i was extremely hungry and i was craving a tuna sandwich from 'Wichcraft, so i went back up to Rockefeller Center got my expensive sandwich ($8.50) and headed up to Elliott's.

Elliott got called out from work so he was home, but he failed to tell me!! haha no worries though. i ate my sandwich and we watched Kung Fu Panda. very good=)

Quantum of Solace started at 10:15, so we left a little after 7:30 to go eat at Old Castle Pub by the theater. Elliott had just eaten a slice of pizza so he wasn't that hungry, but he ate chicken fingers anyway while i had seafood pomodora. SOOO yummy!

it was about 9:15 when we walked across the street to the Ziegfeld theater where a line was started. they let us in just before 10 and the soda fountains had just broken down!! darn. so we had popcorn and a bottle of water. still good.

the movie wasn't that great. definitely not as good as Casino Royale, but still entertaining. great chase/fight scenes too.

got back slightly after 1am. smoked a bit and watched tv. went to sleep by 2:30.

Elliott left for work this morning at 11. i washed the dishes and took a quick shower. Gary called me and said he and Eileen just got out of their NYU film class and we agreed to meet at the Barnes and Noble on 66th street.

stupid weekend train service. downtown 1 trains were going express from 72nd to 42nd so i got off at 72nd and started to walk down. i got a text from Gary saying there were at Best Buy on 60th street and i told them to start walking up to Barnes.

Gary was really hungry, so we went to City Grill. Eileen had a caesar salad, Gary had a Hawaiian wrap, i had a buffalo chicken salad and we shared calamari and a pitcher of sangria. all very yummy=)

went to Lincoln Square theater and decided to see Role Models, but it wasn't starting for another 2+ hours so we killed time at Barnes and Noble.

the movie was very funny! i think Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott are both great comedic actors. i had a really good time watching it.

so now i'm back at Elliott's. he and his nephew, Nathan, were of course watching Happy Feet. Nathan went to sleep not too long ago and now Elliott is playing Gears of War 2 and i'm about to join him=)

terribly sorry for not getting to journals. i really wanted to yesterday, but i wasn't expecting Elliott to be home and today was just busy. i have absolutely nothing planned for tomorrow, so i'll get to everyone's then.

hope everyone is enjoying their weekend!

i'm sad.

Elliott forgot he had a 2 papers to write that are due Monday, so i'm back in Queens=(

sorry for the box. i came back and i really just wanted to sleep, but i couldn't because my family is too loud. so i just read journals to pass the time until my shows started.

sorry i didn't respond to your entries... just really wasn't in the mood.

the heat in this building is ridiculous! all the windows are open and i still feel like i'm going to pass out! my mom told me that some people even turn on their AC! so crazy.

i'm waiting for Elliott's call and then i'm going to sleep.

have a good one everyone!
