Almost 30

So it's 11 days before I turn 30.

I miss my friends.

30n30...eh...who am I kidding?

Okay, so I know it's lame to blog about a blogger, but this shit is hilarious.


10 Attributes of Lazy People

30n30...um...#4 in 8 days...

Okay, so I'm pretty bad at this blogging thing. (1) I have nothing to really talk about that I think is interesting and (2) I need to think of something to talk about that I think is interesting that you think is interesting...

To blog about my day and weekend, it would consist of this:

Yesterday, Niko and I decided to venture out in Boston and take the T to Cambridge Side Galleria so that we could shop at Banana Republic (there isn't one at the mall near us). We took the orange line to the green line and ended up at the mall and
shopped our little asses off! I also bought Bioshock, which is a great game so far. The only problem is that I'm sort of afraid of puppets, masks and mannequins...which the game has and I think that in the long run, it might give me some nightmares! So, after a nice lunch at Cheesecake Factory, shopping at the mall - we headed home and I played Bioshock. Then we went to our favorite Mexican restaurant in the area called Mexico Lindo. After this, we watched Superman Returns. WORST MOVIE (not ever!) - but it ranks up there. I feel like I was cheated out of 2 hours of my life.

Today, we woke up and went to meet a co-worker of mine (John) for brunch at Stephanies on Newbury. Which was delicious and fun. We got there a little after 11, and it wasn't too crowded. It starts getting crowded after 12, because they aren't allowed to serve booze until then. We ate slowly and then enjoyed some mimosas and beer before departing. Then, Niko and I decided to take a stroll through the Boston Garden and Boston Commons. (Pictures below). We came back here, I started laundry, we went grocery shopping and are now chilling back at the apartment - waiting for my meatloaf that I'm cooking for dinner to be done.

On a diet note, I really have to get back to it. I have no self-control. UGH.

Remembering September 11th

I read an entertainment blog called Pink is the New Blog everyday. Today, he chose not share the latest Hollywood goss and do a post, remembering those who died September 11th, 2001. Please visit this link to remember those who lost their lives.

Pink is the New Blog - We Must Never Forget

OMG 30n30 #3 Missed!

My third day into it, I missed the whole 30n30 thing. I got busy, I forgot. However, where does it say that my blog posts need to be daily? So long as I do 30 posts in 30 days, I think that I'm all set.

Traffic has been absolutely horrible. Terrible. Blah-rrible. Bleh. I need to switch up the time that I leave in the morning to avoid all that crap.

Okay, so #3 post is a bit of a cop-out and boring and I have nothing to say. But hey, at least I'm trying to say something.

30n30 #2

Second day. Not much to share. Niko and I went to the mall to do some fall shopping. It's such a switch from shopping in California. A whole new mindset. I can't just fill my wardrobe up with tank tops and open toed shows. It's time to switch to layers, sweaters and boots. Niko needs to get used to shopping with a New England mindset and mix up his wardrobe a bit. We made some progress today...slowly but surely.

I need to go back to the gym and start running. I am beginning to feel lethargic and I know it's because I haven't worked out. I also need to start on the weight watchers again. I've been slacking on that, and that's bad news bears for me. It's just all the food in New England that I've missed is just waiting for me to eat it! I think I've gotten all the cravings out of my system and I need to have some self-control! Ugh. Why when you get older, you have to eat healthier?!?

OH! I just realized that this 30n30 was started 30 days before my 30th birthday. HA!

30n30

So, no one knows about this blog. I was reading my friend Jesse's blog and he's challenged his pals to do a 30n30 blog...which means for 30 days, I will try to blog at least one sentence! So here goes.

This week was a fun week. Back to the busy-ness at work after a small lull last week. Niko and I also went to a Red Sox game (they won) and had a good time all around. We're trying to unpack those last few boxes and figure out where to put everything. I can't wait until we're all settled.
