Interesting

I just read an email from my old boss. I left my old job because of him.

I was actually glad to read his email.

I am also watching/listening to Jewell on KERA. I like her voice I wish she did more.

Today was Ben's b-day. We went out for drinks...I came home and he went out for drinks with his friends...more about that later.

Back to the old boss thing. I use to love working for him but the last year or two he became intolerable. It seems he is back to his old self and I am a bit hesitant to answer. I am going to sleep on it and decide if I want to answer.

"Who will save your soul. When it comes to the memories...who will save your soul after all those lies you told...boy....who will save your soul if you won't save your own..."

Birthday

Today is B's birthday. He is now a year younger than I am. I

It has been a fun week. I decided to celebrate his birthday week by giving him a small birthday gift every day of the week until today. I don't know what I was thinking...I am horrible at picking out gifts for people. Horrible! I have mentioned I normally just give gift cards. But I think I pulled it off. He has liked all of the things I got him. The first 4 were just small gifts and today he got his big gift.

Last night we went to dinner with his friends. We took him to a local restaurant that was packed. Luckily we know the owner so we were able to make reservations and get seated without a wait. I picked up a velvet cake from a local bakery and it was delicious.

I am not a fan of one of his friends, and unfortunately he was invited. He loves attention and does everything he can to have the spot light. Other than that it was a great evening.

Tomorrow, he and I, are going out to dinner. He has been wanting to do a murder mystery so I found one for us to go to. It should be fun, hopefully neither of us will get killed.

Weekend Update

I don't post as much as I should. I was thinking about that last night as I was doing my laundry and watching a movie at home.

B and I went to NYC this past weekend and we had a great time. We said we weren't going to do any of the touristy stuff and we were just going to take it easy but we ended up doing way to much.

We got there on Thursday and we went to the Brooklyn Philharmonic. That was really nice. After we just walked around the city.

Friday we went out to dinner at a really nice restaurant and after we took a yacht tour around the NY harbor. It was really nice. The view of the city at night was amazing. The yacht was kind of empty, there were about 20 people there, and we had whole side of the yacht to ourselves. It was nice and romantic. B loves Champaign so I picked up a bottle of Champaign on our way down there.

Saturday we saw Les Miserables. It was really good. B had never walked around Central Park so on our back from Harlem we walked through Central park for a couple of hours.

We also got some shopping in, we at Sylvia's Soul Food Restaurant (where Bill Clinton eats), walked the Brooklyn Bridge, walked around Brooklyn Heights, went to the NBC Today Show concert in the Square where we heard KT Tunstall, went out to a couple of bars and did some other stuff.

Somewhere along the way B picked up an accent. It's this Italian/New Yorker sleazy guy voice that he does and every time he does it I get chills all over my body. Not the good kind, the bad kind…so he has been doing it a lot. It's kind of funny.

That is it. I am back at home trying to get back into the swing of things. Next stop….Los Angeles. We are going for my nieces Quinceñera in September. That should be tons of fun.
