Updates

I received my warning email from Kaplan - I'm back on the blogging train. For a number of reasons. Here goes:

1.) Perhaps most exciting is that I just added the internet to my phone. Yes I know I am 25 years behind in this, but it now means I can blog on the go. Now that I live in Queens and get cell phone service on the subway. Holla!

2.) Thanksgiving was busy. I flew home, spent a few days in Boca where I caught up with the must-sees - Jesse, Lucy, Sister, Parents, Gilad - then drove up to Tampa where I met GC's mom (and dad) and finally saw all the things I've heard so much about including Saddlebrook, Tampa Lanes, Del Mabrey, Rich & Kristy's dachsunds and Max's House. It was amazing and relaxing and I loved it. Can't wait to go back for Christmas!

3.) Work has been insane! But going well.

4.) I'm going to see the Wu-Tang Clan in January. Die of excitement!

5.) Project Runway is back! I heart Christian! He's the funniest because he's so damn high on himself. But he can back it up. I also love Jack, Kit and Rami. So far, it's been an AWESOME start to my favorite show. And this year, I am SO getting myself to the finale under the tents in Bryant Park! I am always out of town, but this year, it's happening.

6.) I'm addicted to Scrabulous on Facebook. Please challenge me in a game if you are bored! Or love it too.

7.) I love living by myself. I just have to get plugging in terms of decorating. So many ideas, so little time. So little money.

8.) I want a kitten. But don't think I'm home enough. Still thinking about it.

9.) Doing New Year's in New York and GC is having a major party. E-vite coming soon but mark your calendars!

I think that is all for now. I am so behind on posting pictures and what not, will get that done when I can.

Pick Pickler!

I loved Kellie Pickler on American Idol and I'm so glad she is doing well in country music. She's too cute and her voice is amazing. I thought her performance last night at the CMA's was amazing...and showcased a side of her we haven't really seen. I think she's going to make a good country music artist. Poor thing - she hasn't had it easy but she's doing good for herself.

Something Not to Do on Halloween

So...on Halloween I made what just may be the cardinal sin of complimenting someone on their costume. And that is - make sure they are in a costume.

I was out with GC, his roommate and a bunch of her friends. Those friends were then joined by other friends.

One of those boys sat down at our table and I stared at him for a few moments taking in what I saw. Long hair, swept across the forehead to one side. Polo shirt. Khakis. And then it hit me, and I said, "OHHH! Are you Zac Efron???"

He looked at me blankly and then replied, not so nicely, "Ummmm....nooo. I'm just me." As in "Um, no" period. "I'm just me." Period.

I turned away in horror as GC's roommate and her friend began to literally crow with laughter. And I felt HORRIBLE. I was so embarrassed. But only for a few minutes because I looked again and if this guy was indeed trying to be "just himself," then he was doing an awfully good job of also looking "just like Zac Efron."
