yo yo yo. it's wednesday. it feels like monday though, because I HAD OFF YESTERDAY!! hooray for veterans. anyway, let me start off back at friday, since i haven't updated in a while.
friday my office was in the throes of moving to a new location. a location i have to take the bus to, but we'll get to that. it made for a good friday morning because i a) had very little to do, b) got off work early because computers had to be shut down by 2pm, and c) went out for a yummy lunch at a mexican place with my boss shelley, who treated. it was a good morning. oh, and i swiped some cast-off desk shelves that were just going to get thrown out anyway for jornzor's desk at home (it's just a big table, so he has no desk drawers and all his papers are everywhere). yeah.
tori & cori (t/cori) came to visit on friday too. cori is thinking of going to Emerson for her master's next year, so they were checking out the school. i ran into them at harvard square by a sweet coincidence--i was thinking i was going to have to take my cast-off shelving home first and then call them to see where they were, but they made good time from the airport to harvard and we found one another. they accompanied me back to my place to drop off the aforementioned shelving, and we picked up jorn and went out for tea and shopping. i got a pair of hello kitty panties from urban outfitters, originally priced at $12, for just $2.50 (two-fitty). i was psyched. we met up with amy lebrun at 6 and then went out to davis square, where we were met by miles and farbs, for some dinner. susanna was supposed to meet us, and we left her like four messages ("hey sue, we're meeting at harvard square at 6! be there!" "hey sue, it's 6:00, we're at harvard, come meet us at davis square!" "hey sue, where ARE you?...") but unbeknownst to us, she had dropped her cell phone on the floor and broke it and didn't have any of our phone numbers written down anywhere. so she was MIA all weekend. but it was definitely a good night--we got dinner at an irish pub place and were served by a genuine cute irish girl, and then we played balderdash back at amy & alyssa's.
saturday i worked at the Otis House all day. i gave two tours all by myself. saturday night i was tired and cold (STILL no heat in our apartment, and we can't contact our landlord) and grumpy and hungry, so i was considering breaking my plans with farbs to watch Amelie at her house, but i decided to go anyway. a T musician was playing Billy Jean at downtown crossing, which cheered me up immensely, and miles picked me up from the T and drove me home later that night, and we saw the eclipse and chatted and it was very fun and i'm so glad i went. sunday, again with the Otises (just one tour on my own), and sunday night relaxing.
monday. i was all unreasonably nervous about taking the bus to the new office, but then it turned out i had good reason to be nervous. but sunday night i felt like a freak for being all scared, and jorn thought i was being ridiculous but then knowing how upset i was and being the awesomezor that he is, he offered to get up early with me and escort me to work on the bus. monday morning i was feeling dumb for being all scared and feeling like of course i could do this myself, and i almost didn't wake him (i sat on the bed and ate my cereal next to him, but he didn't wake up) but when i kissed him goodbye he was all, why didn't you wake me? so i waited for him to get clothes on, and i felt much better with him along. so we go to the bus stop on mass ave, thinking this will be the place where the #70 stops. it ain't. (if i had been by myself, i would have become confused and upset at this point and probably would've walked the three miles to the job, but thankfully jorn was with me.) we asked the person who gives out T tokens down in the subway, and she didn't really know, and then we went across the street and, oh miracle, saw the #70 coming our way and ran to try to get on. the driver told us that no, the bus didn't pick up at that stop because it was the last one, so to go around the corner and wait there instead. and around the corner there were like ten different places to wait for buses, but jorn found the right one and we waited and then got on. and the bus stop was right where i was told it would be: western ave and everett street. jorn also helped me find my new cube in the new building before heading back out into the cold to catch the next bus home. and my new cube is bigger than my old one. monday was a pretty slow day: just unpacking and settling in to the new office and finding things (like my phone, for example). after work i stopped at blockbuster and rented Matrix: Reloaded, because i wanted to watch the first two movies before seeing the third and we had been talking about getting a group together to watch them and i was sick of waiting. so monday night, i watched dylan's dvd of The Matrix, and remembered why i had thought it was so cool when i saw it that one time before.
tuesday. i slept in till 9:00 (yay!) and then got up and snuck out to the living room to watch Reloaded in my pajamas. i had forgotten dannbrown was asleep on the couch. oops. instead i paid some bills online and stuff, had some breakfast, and took a shower. by this time dann was awake, just being lazy, so i warned him that if he was still on the couch when i got out of the shower he would have to watch the movie with me. he was very gone when i finished drying my hair. i watched the movie--it made more sense immediately after watching the first one, but i still wasn't excited about it. i've heard cruddy things about the third one, but i'm curious so i'll go see it. then i went downtown and met up with farbs and susanna at H&M for some shopping! it was super fun. i got a cute cute dress (that i don't really need but that looks so cute on me) for $20 and a black sweater (that will be useful, versatile, and machine-washable) for $25. then we hit filene's basement to look for a coat for farbs, but didn't find too much she really liked. then we realized we couldn't find susanna, and looked and looked for her. eventually we went to the charity (or something) desk to page her, and she came right over not because she had heard the page but because she was going to page us. unfortunately we were underground (basement and all) or we could've just used our cell phones. then we headed back to my place for game night, which was awesome this week--susie and farbs arrived with me, and rikky and miles were there when we got back, plus alyssa arrived and all the roommates were there (dann and jorn and dylan and i), so there were nine of us. we played Clue (yay!) and Celebrities, but didn't finish it because then the food we ordered arrived, and it was good. farbs and i split a frozen yogurt for dessert. after everyone left i stayed up too late waiting Queer Eye and Futurama.
tonight: going to stuart's reading, now that dann figured out for me how to get there. it'll be good to see stuart. i'm glad i'm wearing my spiff new dress, too, so i won't look like some slacker ex-student without a good job in front of stuart and his cool academic friends. it's a very cool, very big-city new dress. i am teh spiffster. (oh, and jorn, would you tape star trek for me?)
and a big "hi y'all" to the new folks on my friends list:![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
shabuchwae, mel1978nj, and queende. woot!
