Too busy to blog

After posting yesterday I realized it had been a little over a month since my last post and well over a month since my last valid post. I kept meaning to write about the things I was doing and had all kinds of funny stories (that I may still write), but I just never got around to it. Because I am lazy. But, things aren't going to get any less busy so I'm just going to have to buckle down. Toe the line. Blah blah something. I don't know. Whatever. I just wanted to list all the awesome things I've been doing over the past month so you all become insanely jealous of me and wish you had my rock star life. And I thought I needed an intro paragraph for that. I really don't though.

I:
  • Went to the Central Park Zoo to see MONKEYS and sea lions and penguins (Muppets favorite) and polar bears.
  • Saw the Penguin movie (with Muppet, of course).
  • Finally checked out the museum of sex which houses loads of imagines of nekkid men and allowed me the opportunity to watch hours of porn (old and new) with Muppet and Bambi.
  • Watched Muffy become Dr. Muffy. She did it brilliantly and beautifully (as is her nature) and I was and still am insanely proud of her.
  • Shopped Boston.
  • Ate at the Salty Dog.
  • Pigged out at Chat 'n Chew.
  • Purchased a Big Box o' Chocolate.
  • Walked for miles and miles.
  • Attended a fabulous art opening.
  • Attempted Weak Ass Canadian Bowling (and failed at it spectacularly).
  • Sampled the tasty bean & rice hospitality of Vader.
  • Reunited with my fabulous reading buddy, the feisty and witty Troublemaker.
  • Drank beer and ate pizza with IT boys.
  • Took the ethical slut quiz jointly with Dr. Muffy. After taking it again without Dr. Muffy I find we are less ethical but also still a wee bit less slutty together than apart. But either way we're very slutty, ethical women. Bow before us.
  • Learned about vegan porn with Dr. Muffy & Steph. Heh. Google that, bitches.
  • Went to see Serenity with Lovey where I was sad to see Mal with pants that are slightly less tight than they were in Firefly but the topless mostly made up for that. And then. I got to see... CRAZY LADY PANTIES!!!!!!!
  • Celebrated my PimpDaddy's aging process and ruined the ending of the latest Amazing Race for his brother because I am, unintentionally, the world's biggest asshole.
  • Ate vegetarian at Meat Heaven.
  • Battled a stomach bug of epic proportions. And walked it off. Doctors schmoctors.
  • Shopped Boston.
  • Cursed the rain.
  • Vacuumed my comforter.
  • Cheered and photographed Maggie as she ran her first big girl race. I am in awe. Running five yards pisses me off. Five miles? Rock on, little Maggie. Rock on.
  • Stayed up most of the night with a drunk friend who needed to vent and then went off to view the horrible Cry Wolf and then the even more horrible Venom (only paid for one!). And would not have done that with anyone but my adorable Buzz.
  • Went to a rugby game that included cheers such as "cover your ears" (after we learned it's not unheard of for them to be ripped off), naked rugby boys, "gatorade, corona, coconut mojitos" and fireworks.
  • Rocked out with Rock Star Fran and others. Well, drank beers and ate Indian food, but that's totally just like rocking out.
  • Suffered through a work party that offered psychics and an open bar (thank you, jeebus!).
  • Worked way more than I'd like.
  • Saw Wallace & Gromit (with a couple OTHER THAN Dr. Muffy & Steph).
  • Lunched with Charlotte and her O Magazine self.
  • Enjoyed the new Fall season. I'm talking the TV season. I hate the start of cold weather and am refusing to wear my winter coat until it's November.
  • And some other stuff that I'm sure was awesome but that I'm just forgetting.
In the future I will:
  • Attend Homecoming.
  • Welcome Dr. Muffy to her 30's. Heh.
  • Have Sunday dinner with my lovely & jet lagged folks.
  • Scrub my bathroom.
  • Cheer and photograph Dr. Muffy as she does her first big girl race.
  • Avoid the flu.
  • Attend the Phi's national convention in providence. Which should only involve about 20 or so hours of board meetings - yes, you do want my rock star life.
  • Go to Shecky's night out to drink Amstel Light, eat dessert fondue, score a goodie bag and mock the women of New York mercilessly with Bambi, Lovey and Muppet. Bambi, Lovey and Muppet? Hell.
  • Introduce Dr. Muffy to the International Bar in my company's cafeteria. I think it's only Italian Nation day on the day she's coming. Which is sad. Monday was Comfort Food Nation day. But Thursdays are usually Tapas Bar days so that'll be nice for her. Then she can tour my two by two inch cubicle and see the IT room where boys will mock and throw balls at us. Call me if you'd like to schedule a hot lunch date like this with me.
  • Christmas shop until I drop. In Boston. And New York. And Honolulu.
  • Spend Thanksgiving with Turnip. Hopefully?
  • Attempt the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Again. Maybe this will be the year I actually go.
  • Finally make plans with the guy I've been playing phone tag with for the past few months. (You matchmaking freaks stop that thought right now it is NOT like that!)
  • Survive November Sweeps.
  • Attend a Halloween party. Maybe even in costume (a costume I will pull together in about 30 seconds, much like I did with previous costumes such as Cher Impersonator and The Country Music Awards).
  • Throw a work Halloween Party to celebrate what is sure to be a shitty performance evaluation and the announcement of no raise or promotion ever.
  • Have tea with the nicest Opera Divas I know.
  • Visit my doctor to see if the 15 pounds I've lost have helped anything.
  • Begin my Christmas insanity.
  • Help organize the huge work birthday party Sheena will demand.
  • Celebrate Maggie's birthday with brunch and festivities and such.
  • Take a nap?
