Day 357/365 (August 10, 2009)


i got up crazy early to do the rush for the bye bye birdie first preview performance tickets, they were for $10 each! i got a great lunchbox since i was one of the first 50 people in line and it had a tee shirt and pin in it. sadly i was not the one who won the opening night tickets/party passes. i slept a little and did a lot of talking with jennifer and her mom who was in line too behind me. i witnessed some of the bye bye birdie load in and witnessed one of the funniest things i have seen all year as the BBB ensemble did the fan club thing and spazzed over "conrad" and then "chased" him down the street. they did a real good job of pretending to be all fan crazy.
then i went to sasha's and changed and stuff and made my way to meet karolina. we begun our day of looking at bridal dresses and her mom even joined us. we made some amazing progress and it excited me and her een if i ended up feeling like it was a bridal sweat shop because i hadnt eaten since the day before and i had said i needed food. well we didnt get it after the first store and just kept going. eventually we made our way to ollie's and met up with david and his best man (i forget his name). food was appreciated and prevented me from dying. i also had the opportunity to meet the best man and he was a really great person and i can see why david chose him and we had some pretty adult conversations actually talking about the wedding... its weird to be adult like sometimes!
after we did some more shopping then i made my way back to sasha and martys and hung out with them for a long while before finally going home.
ps my picture is not upside down, they pulled that out upside down.

Day 356/365 (August 9, 2009)

so today i woke up and headed with Pip to wicked lotto to help chris and friends out. Luckily one of his friends won and then i took Pip back home to sasha's. he was so happy to be back and once we got around the wicked area he knew where we were and basically ran the whole way home. i then spent a lot of the day there chatting and catching up and beginning the renaming of my picture folders before i back them up. i started with may of last year and have to go through july of this year... a MAJOR undertaking to say the least. i am not renaming every picture but instead each day folder will get certain key words so when i want a picture i can search the word and find it easier. Pip still stayed cuddled with me a great portion of the day and at one point sasha made marty and i some extremely yummy turkey!

i also left with krysta at one point to get an 8 cent cupcake on 72nd st. it was ok but not fabulous! but it was exciting because when we got there there was an extremely long line and we were like oh well but we found out the line was for people who had just found out about the deal and were waiting for the text to get sent to them... since we already had the text we got to go straight in and not wait in line to get our cupcake... i paid with a dime and let them keep the change LOL!

anywho finally the time came and i headed home and i of course watched big brother and laughed so hard when jeremy piven made a guest appearance. everyone was so excited and i just kept thinking mercury poisoning and that if i were a contestant i would have said mercury poisoning? then sat down. i also thought it was so cute because one of the people was like i just met jeremy piven and he is a celebrity and i can say i met him... and i thought back to the days when i cared about that and how excited i would have been (joey fatone the first time i saw him in rent anyone, especially carol?) but now these days i just dont care. i mean clay aiken is someone i used to be batty about and he almost bumped into me when leaving billy elliot and i saw him an i was like o clay aiken just passed me what were you saying?

anywho i also got celery and carrot sticks ready to keep my tummy satisfied while waiting in line for the opening of the box office for bye bye birdie. i am pretty excited to see the show and you cant go wrong with $10 tickets, thanks bank of america for the help!
emma also kept going on my lap because she missed me so, it was cute but really annoying because it was hard to type.

the countdown has begun!!!! this is DAY 10
