whoa. so much to report. :)

well... today was a busy busy day.. but let me backup and recap the weekend..

friday SS and i drove down to dirty jersey to attend BD's engagement party. we stayed at a less then stellar hotel. there was leftover takeout left in the fridge from the previous guests. there were cobwebs all on the ceiling, and SS found hairs in her bed. i am pretty sure the sheets were not changed. we switched rooms and the next room was also very cob-webby and had a huge crack (like someone had punched the wall) in the bathroom. we were also told that we would be able to charge the 2 nights to 2 separate cards at check-out but were totally denied by the bratty kid that checked us out. grrrr. and the deluxe continental breakfast was hardly deluxe.

besides the crappy hotel i had a great time. it was nice to catch up with SS. she is moving to seattle with her fiance at the end of june. he just got a job with micrsoft. i really got to meet BD's fiance and he was very nice. i approve, except hes a rabid yankees fan. :(

here are some pics from the weekend.

also.. we drove by a bunch of famous sopranos landmarks. of course my camera was in my car so i dont' have any proof, but we saw the sopranos house/driveway. the sushi place, noris, and the bada bing (really called satin dolls).

today was my first day at my new job. i think its going to be a lot of fun. i was issued a cell phone and will be getting a laptop later this week. i work so close to one of my colleagues we could probably hold hands all day. hahaha. we traded blog addresses today and promised each other we wouldn't write about each other. ;) i think that is going to be a hard promise to keep. if you are curious, his blog is here. i hope it proves to be entertaining. i am adding it to my feedreader.

the commute to work was about 8 minutes door to parking lot. the commute home was more like 11. not too shabby.

immediately after work today cath and i went to swim aerobics at the Y. i wore shoes this time. shiiiiiiiiit. after swim class was WW. i didn't even look at how much i weigh. i don't want to know. i do know that i had to go to kohls after WW to get some snazzy new work clothes. i feel like its the first day of school. :) then cath and i went to the p&c and got some good things to eat so we can be successful at WW. we just walked in tonight at 9pm.

the p&c has the most perfect shopping carts for a single person.


i am having some technical difficulties with adecco and my part time job. i went in last week to fill out stacks of paper, this friday when i was away they called and apparently i need to go back because there is more paperwork that i need to fill out and i also need to take a drug test. :( think good thoughts everyone.. and i still have to set myself up with all the vpn's etc to connect and work my PT job. so much to do, so little time!

tomorrow is swim class at 730. i think i like that instructor better. i felt like it was better.
