Day 128 & 129 - Snowstorm Red and Purple

In case you haven't been watching the news we got hit with a hell of a storm the last two days. So I ended up spending the whole thing hold up in my apartment. The 8inches of snow and freezing rain were kinda scary. Did some super fun shoveling the last two days.  Only dug out half the car yesterday so I had chop away at the ice today to get my car out. It was less than pleasant. Thankfully all the ice is gone. The crap part is that there's more snow expected for Saturday. I am so over snow!!!

How do you like them icicles?

So sorry for the slacking. Should be back on track with posting tomorrow.

Day 120 & 121 - Blue Plaid and Dark Gray Knee Socks

It was negative degrees yesterday with a windchill of -20. Seriously!!! That's absurd! I left the house for an errand but that was it. It made me so scared to go outside. That most certainly was the coldest weather I've ever been in. Today we had some snow, but it wasn't bad. Suppossed to have a big storm tomorrow night and another 8 to 10 inches of snow. Ug!

Day 114 & 115 - Double Pink

Note: Simon grooming Miles on the left



One yucky day in the neighborhood today. Snow, Rain, and Ice. Good thing I haven't had to go anywhere today :) Played some Monopoly on the Wii. Made some soup Mushroom, Tofu, and Noodle Soup for lunch. And dinner of Spicy Chicken Stew is in the crock pot as we speak.

Spent some time watching movies yesterday. I don't think I will ever be someone who likes the Classics. Watched The Bridge Over the Rive Kwai and From Here To Eternity. I couldn't really get that much into either.  Also watched the new Alice In Wonderland. That one at least held my interest, but the story wasn't what I thought it would be. The whole movie was pretty weird actually. Not sure why it got nominated for any Golden Globes.

Watching Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squekquel now. It's as ridiculous as I expected it to be, but at least it's somewhat entertaining. I always liked the Chipmunks growing up. And there was an animated movie Bridget and I used to watch all the time about them Hot Air Ballooning across the world collecting dolls filled with jewels and cash. I can't remember the name of that movie. I kinda wanna watch it again. The new cartoons don't have anything on the old 80's cartoons.

Day 49, 50, and 51 - NYC Trip

Friday - Left super early for NYC. Took the bus to the subway to the bus terminal. The Bolt Bus to NYC wasn't bad. Meet up with Bridget and Meghan at the Palace hotel. We went out for lunch then did some sightseeing. Went to Rockefeller Center, and Central Park.  Went to two different sushi places for dinner. Had appetizers at one and then dinner at another in Times Square. Bridget got to see all the craziness that was. The entire day was a TON of fun. A lot of laughs for sure!!

Saturday - Even got the view from the hotel in the background :)  Had another great day in the city. Went to the Empire State Building. And a random street fair where we had deep fried Oreo's and bought WAY too many scarves. Then headed to Madam Toussaud's Wax Museum, which was an obscene amount of fun. Left Bridget and Meghan at 4. They met up with a friend from FL and I moved to a new hotel with Elyse. Went out for some Italian food with her friends, and then to a bar for the night. Somehow managed to stay up til the wee hours.



Sunday - Elyse and I did some marathon watching from the TV in the hotel lobby as we tried to stay awake. Headed out to 88th and 1st. Watched the marathon for like 3 hours from there. Saw her cousins and Ian. Still don't get why anyone would want to run a marathon. It's one hell of an accomplishment though. After the race we met Elyse's brother for dinner. On the way we found a sock store!!! Yes I said Sock Store!! There were like a million socks in the store!! Of course I bought some. The weird thing about the store was that all the socks were mismatched and in sets of three. Totally bizzaro but cool. After dinner, Elyse and I headed back to Boston.  

Overall it was a fun trip. I loved spending time with Bridget and Meghan. We had so much fun. Came home with a new hat, scarves, and some mismatched socks. What more could I ask for :)
