waiting for the shower, doing other people's dishes

slept in late again. don't love it.
need to cook, which also has a need to shop component, but the coop on a sunday, esp the sunday before tday yikes.
sunny but cold. yesterday was blustery.
went to the lj wrap party, it was lame. the na warp party was more fun even though i saw celebrities here...and brooke admitting she'd had some alcohol....
think i am going to costa rica in feb, which i am feeling a little ambivalent about. both money and travel partner wise. and what the impetus for the trip is....
shower time

cold sunday

today i am:
-avoiding a parent that i should have responded to three days ago
-avoiding seriously cleaning my apt
-pondering why marathon was talking about making jelly rolls last night--what is a jelly roll?
-again being astounded at a certain friend's political views and how her apathy shines through and skews here so conservative.
-wondering if i will study for my hebrew test tomorrow
-annoyed at how long i stayed in bed in the morning even though i was wide awake and kinda had teh shplikies
-hating how early it gets dark
-and fearing how cold it will be on my ride to marathon's tonight and ride to work tomorrow.

i drove a number 6 subway train yesterday

for about 300 feet but i still did it. we took a tour of the old city hall station and apparently after these tours they always let one or two people drive (they have their hands on top of yours). i didn't know this, but i had been chatting with the mta guy about his job and he asked me if i had ever driven a train, i said no but i'd love to. when we got on the car he motioned for me to come up to the front. it was awesome the smile on my face was humongous!

got up early both days and feel like i have done so much. yummy brunch, watched marathon, walked on some abandoned tracks down by owls head park. some kids followed us in which i wasn't comfortable with on several accounts, but i would totally go back down there again.

marathon loved his facial yesterday.
i still need to get my textbook for hebrew tomorrow night.

not pleased about how early it gets dark!

still no morgan in my future, but i do love wave hikll

i love all the tress there,, and the variety of trees, and how all these tall trees are near each other, looking at the wall of them but they are also so diverse. its so pretty.
it was marathon's first time on metro north. he enjoyed it. and we were even able to find the spyten duvil train station. woo hoo.
apparently the steelers lost tonight or were losing when i talked to my mom. sad.
went to my coworkers' concert last night, i haven't been to one in a long while and this one was sparsely attended so i'm glad i showed up. i have one of her songs stuck in my head in a good way.
i generally really like my job, but this is my first full week of work in a long time and i see myself being a tired pup.

i had a little emotional breakdown on friday night over feeling lonely and wondering about the future. in some ways same old stuff, but also applied in new ways. it drove me to watch lipstick jungle and i saw marathon's name in the credits. woo hoo.

will i ever make it to the morgan?

hopefully but not during these set of days off. maybe one friday afternoon when we start getting out at 1:30, not that i'll be out of there before 3 anyway.
but i am going to go to yoga today. yeah. and a special appt, that i'm not sure what i think of and am bit nervous about

my apt is cold

the heat finally got turned on at marathon's yeah!!!!! his place has been freezing. i think it will still be chilly.
did the tour de bronx bike ride on sunday. 25 miles, my longest ride ever. but it was good and nice, although mainly cold. this is a big fear for riding to work in the winter. i hope to acquire some gear to help with that soon.

one more coop makeup to go.

the middle school kids i hung out with post wedding on sat were super fun. i kinda hope i get to see them again sometime. even though i think their dad is rather intimidating. the wedding was nice, the dj sucked. there was way too much food, too many courses. and the braziallian chocolate balls weren't as good as mk's mom's. i hope they have them at her wedding although i don't remember if they are parve or not.

hmm nay other highlights? the sukkah sleepover was actually pretty fun, and cr coming to sing was awesome. i didn't sleep at all as i was super aware of all sounds and also super freezing. through the grape vine i heard my boss was pleased with my work there, but i know she likes me.

hmm anything else?
i think not

trouble with keys and locks

i need to work on hydration, this is a perpetual need. but i think its the reason i feel asleep instead of going to the morgan to do something fun with my day off. maybe next week.

sleeping at school tomorrow-woo hoo

but i did get one coop make up down. one to go plus the one for missing tomorrow's shift... so two to go. ahh days off next week and soon early fridays.

finally figured out marathon's b'day present now i just need to get it.

as always i probably had more interesting things to say, but now i can't think of em...
