Why do I even bother?

I refuse to go into details, but just know that I went on the WORST date of my life last Tuesday with Rob. Never date a boy from Dorchester! There, you've been warned!!

In other BTD news, I purchased and decorated my very first real Christmas tree this weekend!! It's absolutely perfect and I will post a picture tomorrow!!

Have a good night.

Another go.

Got another date tonight. This one is with Rob, a bartender friend of mine (sorry Krissy)!! We've been crushing on each other for a few months and he finally asked me out last Friday. I'm not going to even attempt to predict anything here. All I know is he's already a lot more fun than Loc was. He's got a better personality, he's more confident, and he's a bartender!

I'm all done at work until Monday and I couldn't be more thrilled!! That is, I'm all done working at the paper for the week. I do have to cover a Thanksgiving Day football game Thursday morning, but that's it. It'll be nice to catch up on some rest after what has already been a very busy November!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I might offer some date details tomorrow, but if I'm not able to, I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!! What are you thankful for this year?

Why my roommie Jill is so funny?

Need I say more?

I'm getting too old for this.

This has been one of the longest weeks of my life!!

It's high school tournament time in Massachusetts and that means my life is turned upsidedown for a week. I've had soccer games practically every night of the week. Between soccer games I had to squeeze in three bar shifts. Sleep hasn't exactly been something I've enjoyed over the last week. But then again, I've learned to function pretty well on little sleep!!

Anyway, nothing really new going on. Last night, my last soccer team was ousted so I finally have some time to catch up on my social life...although not tonight.

You could probably guess by now that things with Loc have cooled. I broke it off because I really just didn't have the time to pursue a relationship. It was just bad timing, meeting him two weeks before the tournaments started. He works 9-5 and has weekends off. I don't, which means lots of dates during the week, which means lots of late nights and lots of grogginess at work the next morning. It just wasn't working out, unfortunately. Too bad, but there's plenty of other guys out there...and don't I know it.

Everyone gearing up for Christmas? Oh yeah, not even Thanksgiving, but it looked like Christmas Eve in the mall today. I stopped in to exchange something at Old Navy after work and I saw Santa. On Nov. 13!! There's something wrong with that!! Seriously!!

Well, that's all for now. I hope your weekend was more fun than mine!! Although, you probably didn't make $800 in three nights like I did so screw!!

Gosh darn work!

Hello all. I had a busy weekend and I've got a busy week coming up. What does this mean? That I'm essentially going to be ignoring you for the next few days. I'm swamped with work and trying to get over the carnage I witnessed at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro last night. $100 bucks to see the Pats beat themselves against the Colts!!!!! Just horrible!!

Okay, I'll write again when I can. Have a great week!

Taylor's first Halloween.

Awwwwwwww! How cute is she??!!

This is niece Taylor as Elvis. Momma Beth wanted to get a baby wig for her with some sideburns to complete the look, but no luck. Rather than stick her baby in a furry animal suit of some kind, Beth went the other way and made her kid something cool for Halloween!! Good move, B. Good move!!

Have a great weekend!! I know I will!! Going to the Pats/Colts game at Gillette on Sunday night. Peyton and Co. are going down, baby!!
