west wing or bust

boy am I pooped.  thelights are off in the office, so there may be a few typos that my tired eyes may not catch, and for that I apologize in advance or in abundance, or both ?!?

akeelah and the bee has really gotten my mind into those useless vocabulary words that are long and fun to say and interesting to share with others ... I will probably have these things on my mind until I see the movie (if I so choose to do so)

Anyway, I have been up way too late at night this week and need to get to bed early tonight ... I am going to see the Yankees tomorrow night, and have to take the train to work in the morning and that means waking up around five am.

enough blabbing -- so off I go into the room with gryphen to watch some west wing and then catch some long awaited zees.  ciao for now!

my rangers blew it tonight for home ice advantage .. but I will be pulling for them as the playoffs begin Friday night versus the Devils of New Jersey.

Shane is looking for a new job and I am excited for him with all the new opportunities that have presented themselves (many earlier today!)

I'm going to see BILLY JOEL in concert tonight (Wednesday) at long last at Madison Square Garden and if you could not tell, I am extraordinarily excited (I am in the first row of my section)

spring break has been more than amazing for me and I have really appreciated the time to recuperate and do the daily Times crossword puzzle, sleep in late, eat leisurely, spend wonderful time with Shaney

I'm going to get ready for bed now, until next time ......

after it has been so terribly long, the very least I could do is sign in and say hello.  things are okay with me these days, got a good job, got a good office, got a new [husband], got a new life, and the family's fine ... oh ... lost touch long ago, lost weight, I did not know ... you could ever look so nice after so much time ..... do you remember those days hangin' out at the village green?  Engineer boots, leather jackets and tight blue jeans. Drop a dime in the box, play a song about New Orleans.  Cold beer.  Hot lights.  My sweet romantic teenage nights.

more again soon.

i am ready to post again. much more settled in our new place here in beautiful astoria, queens.  getting mentally prepared (in the very back of my mind right now) for the beginning of another new school year, but this time at a brand new leadership school for young women here in queens.  extraordinarily excited about this opportunity and all it brings to me and the community.

i am also preparing (more front-mindedly) for my brother's wedding, which is taking place in ten days. TEN DAYS!!!!!!!!!! i still have to finish my speech!  I am, of course, the best man, you see.  i have to wow everyone, but most of all, my brother.

that is all for now.  good for me for writing again.  how therapeutic.

WOW.  what a long time since writing.

Well, you'll never guess where I am.

Having the time of my life with my dearest partner (and now international travel partner!) Shane ... we landed last evening and had an exciting first day of settling in, getting used to the time change, catching up to a regular eating, breathing, and living schedule after yesterday's nightmarish night/day/night, during which we slept nearly zero hours, ate hardly any food whatsoever, and made every attempt to pack ONLY what we thought we would need for this trip, meanwhile we seem to have brought amazingly much too much.

I'm going to go now since Shane is going to go on the computer and I want to conserve our pence pieces.

Ta ta for now.
