I watched the Eagles play at the "Boston Garden" last night from the Boston Globe suite.  

Pictures and video to come soon.

I have a new older man crush  - Don Henley.  Fact.

Best Party Ever.

Nuff said.

Like Jessica I have become a little obsessed with apple shift 4 (only for cool mac kids) but for stupid work stuff.  However I am now going to start implementing it in my blog.  First installment speaks for itself:

Looks like theres no end in sight to this miserable weather.  My pool has been like near overflowing for the past few days so last night in mid down pour I decide I'm going to go out and put the pump in to see if I can get it a little lower.  I've been told a million times our pool is grounded - however I got shocked.  Went up my whole arm and I probably woke up the new baby next store with my never ending flow of expletives.  So I just started putting buckets in it and pulling out water. 

I had nightmares all night that the pool would cave in under all the weight and my house would flood.  I have my neighbor on the case now as I am at work.  However I was going to leave early so I could go babysit the pool after my conference call at 11am - but of course it gets changed to an awful 3:30.  

Ack.  Got to go get ready for said call.

New Obsession!

Like Google Reader but not.  

Great weekend.

Started on Thursday actually.  I bought a new digital camera.  So amazing.  I needed an upgrade badly.  Pat and John tagged along and it was comical whenever I lost them I would just roam the video game aisle cause I know they'd be back. Pictures below.  Courtesy of le new camera.

I took Friday off for my summer-time-off day (taking another one this Friday - I'm going to be so spoiled come September when we don't get them anymore) and went to see the Dark Knight with Hillary and Pat.  I got tickets for Pat and I last Sunday - I guess I really thought it was going to be sold out but Hillary got her ticket day of.  Lame.  Anyways.  I cannot say enough amazing things about this movie.  Best movie I have seen in YEARS - worlds better than Batman Begins (which I wasn't a huge fan of - I hate Katie Holmes) even though SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT Cillian Murphy was in it for 5 seconds.  Maybe not even.  Who cares.  Best MOVIE ever.

Saturday Pat, Hill and John came over for a pool party and it was fun.  Lots and lots of drinks were had and lots of laughs and randomness.  One of those great summer days.

I'm not the hugest fan of that picture but it reminds me of what I love about summer.  So whatever.

After taking a pseudo nap we trucked it to Rockland to Pat's cousins house where more sillyness ensued.  Hillary and Pat did the "cigarette smoosh" I whipped out my version of the Carlton and Pat's cousins wife and I begged the "DJ" for LOve is a Battlefield which then prompted me to proclaim my love for 13 Going On 30.

Sunday I chillaxed and did lots of housework.  Later in the day me and RC went to see Mamma Mia.  ANOTHER fantastic movie.  I never knew much about Abba but I went home and bought the soundtrack.  Call me a sellout but I LOVED ITTTTT.  I've been singing it all day at work.

Work is still kicking my ass.  I cleaned up a few big items I've been working on for the past two weeks today so I feel like a literal weight has been lifted.  Next biggie is the OR show August 8-11. When that is over I need to start planning a vaca!

So.  Random.

Today I was waiting for Bethany to go to lunch with me.  I'm restless.  All the time so I put my shades on and I think it's really smart for me to sit backwards on my chair, on my knees and spin around.  Well while I'm spinning I underestimate my top-heavyness and over I go with the chair.  I tried to catch myself.  I went face first into the floor and chest first into the heavy ass part of my chair.  Needless to say I feel like I have a tank on my chest because it's all bruised and it hurts when I take a deep breath.  

However it was the funniest thing that's ever happened to me.  Bethany said as I was falling I was very calm and all I said was "Woah woahhhhhh".  I kind of laid on the ground and laughed until she was ready.  

Kathleen came in later and as I was trying to recreate it I almost did it again.  Wicked smart.

I was feeling a little down yesterday and the laughter that was produced from my idiotic fall saved my day.  Weird how that happens.

Dark Knight friday.  Too excited.

xok

Updates galore:

• Saw Wanted.  Really liked it.  Yeah the story was kind of retarded and Angelina looked like the kids from Rwanda she helps rescue; but that James McEvoy stole the show and it was overall visually pleasing.
• Saw Wall-E which I adored and cried at the end.  Yep.  I did. So good.
• Major stress city at work.  I don't know how to say no.  I feel like it's going to catch up to me.  I want to work my way up so badly and I want to prove myself and I think that I have to take on all tasks given to me.  Needless to say I worked till midnight last night at my house and I came into work at 7am this morning.  
• Salt Lake City in three weeks.  Was excited.  Not so much anymore.
• There is a mother-effing CHIPOTLE in the South Shore Plaza.  Yeah I cheated on my diet last weekend.

Saw my favorite band in the world Alkaline Trio last night. I have had very bad luck seeing Alkaline Trio in the past so I wasn't going to let anyone come in my way.  I even watched HALF of an opening band (OMG - couldn't take it anymore so RC and I went and sat near the bathrooms and played a very juvenile game).

Saw my unofficial little brother Johnny and Kelsey and I was superrr excited.  Alkaline Trio came out and were amazing.  It's criminal to look as good as Matt Skiba.

Ok so they're the same picture pretty much.  Whatev.

Only problem I had with the show is that the set list was AWFUL.  Blue Carolina SAVED it. Two songs from Good Mourning, one from Crimson (!!!!!), two from remains, like 7 new songs and then some old classics.  I made my own set list Friday and it went like this for the record:

My Standard Break from Life
Blue Carolina
Emma

Radio
Continental
Blue in the Face
Jaked on Green Beers
Queen of Pain
Mercy Me
Sadie
In Vein
Calling all Skeletons
Burn
All On Black
This Could Be Love
Help Me
I’m Dying Tomorrow
Stupid Kid

Highlighed the ones the actually played.  Eh.  I guess Skiba missed my email.

Saturday went to Nikki's for a party where I played the wonderful game of Baggo.  Interesting game and if you're bad (like i was) the game WILL go on for over an hour.  During the day Jess, Hill and I went to the beach and it was nice.  I was HUNGOVER like no ones business and ate a bagel.  So bad.  Got burnt and when I was playing said game at Nikki's the guy I was playing with kept slapping my back really hard lol.

Friday night I was OVER work so I decided to drink.  Alot.  I had three dirty martinis, three glasses of wine and then a beer!  What was I thinking.  It was me and Pat's bender we decided.  Needless to say we were the only NON drinkers the night after.  Never drinking again.  

Work is going to suck this week.  I can tell.
