Day 315/365 (May 28, 2015)

After work I went home and made some Hunger Games Mockingjay symbols out of chocolate (chocolate art) and made some cards and cupcake boxes. I also went to the evil cookie place for Broadway Bakes.. This time got a photo with Melaine Moore, Ricky Ubeda, and James Monroe Inglehart. Carolee Carmello was in line behind me and also took a picture. Then I met up with Jo Ann for dinner at Red Lobster... It was yummy and I suck at being in control when eating out. Then cut our night a bit short because Karen got some very sad news about her Aunt so I went back to the evil cookie place to get her a pick me up then went home so she wouldn't be alone. On the way back though the sky was gorgeous!

Day 287/365 (April 30, 2015)

Got up and headed to the office early, then helped hang a couple dry erase boards. We had everyone in the office for once... even our remote employee! We had like a 5 hour meeting, rough!

Then later I needed to figure out a way to professionally slap someone up side the head because of something. Then i headed off to home while taking a long walk via central park to get more walking in. I popped into the Marriot Marquis and met up with Zach and Brian for a bit, then popped home to change and met up with Jo Ann. Jo Ann's drink looked beautiful!

We went to The Sugar Factory and over ate the most wonderful stuff. Since I was already on a sugar high from over eating my baked goods this was probably not the best thing, but oh so tasty! We had mac and cheese balls, chocolate fondue, and I had a root beer float made entirely from alchol and a buffalo chicken sandwich that was divine.

The food was awesome and the wait staff were very attentive. It was nice to have our dinner date, then we walked back uptown and eventually I went home.

Day 257/365 (March 31, 2015)

My day was all over the place! I went to work as normal but left to go to 30 Rock to attempt to get a better picture with Nico. It was a fail but while I was there I got distracted by adorable puppies just chilling, ran into Lenny, and Taylor. However before I did all that when I got there I was trying to figure out where to wait and I saw someone from the day before so I was like I am in the right spot and was pleased and she was so rude/mean to me. She was like I don't know if this is the right spot I am just waiting here because of my ankle. Then a few moments later she turned to the person she was with and was like let's go inside to get a salad. I figured she was just ditching me but whatever. I waited outside a bit more before deciding to go in and sure enough there she was! I am sorry but what a wiotch! I wasn't trying to be friends with you or talk to you, I was just making an observation. Also I saw how you behaved when you found out you missed Hilary Duff. Not cool. Yes I wanted a picture with him but I wouldn't have chased him. Anyway it turns out she is friends with Taylor since they do the celebrity photo thing often so then she was sort of forced to chat with and be nice to me. She isn't a mean person but still that wasn't cool and it turns out she is a "pro" at this sort of thing and that means she lied to my face just because... honestly whatever! I also got stuck on the phone for over 30 minutes with our HR rep because she likes to talk way too much... oof!

Then back to work for a bit before heading to Trader Joe's. I thought it was going to be a basic night in but Jo Ann ended up having two comp tickets to The Visit. I asked Neil if he wanted to join and he said sure, Jo Ann came over for a bit and we had a nice chat until it was almost show time and she had to head home. I met up with Neil and we mad our way to The Lyceum. It was an interesting show and I just wanted it to end after the first 56 minutes. It got to one point where in my head I just kept chanting Kill Him Kill Him KILL HIM ALREADY!!!! after the show we went to The House of Brews for a bit then I went home and had dinner... oops!

Also you can see Charlie decided to sit on my face.

Day 198/365 (January 31, 2015)

The new memory card I got yesterday had to be exchanged because it was broken so I headed to Best Buy and also got a new camera tutorial. Then I headed out to New Jersey to spend the day with Jo Ann. Her place is super cute and her kitty Moritz loved me... Ilse however wanted nothing to do with me sadly. We got Chinese food and rekindled my love on wonton soup.

Eventually we made our way back to the city for Ellyn's concert. I had quite the difficulty with where I would be filming from since they have a hard time getting their act together. Ellyn's show was even better than the first one and there were a few different things... She did one song in the dark, except for flashlights. I wish I were half as funny as she is! I was laughing so hard I slipped and fell while filming because of the slippery booth and my leggings. Then Jo Ann crashed with us for the night because it was such a late show. She also made us pins that say Lola's Aunterouge.

Day 170/365 (January 3, 2015)

Got up early to go to training... only to discover Travis forgot and was in Florida so no training for me, but I did go to the gym and hit my step goal for the day by 11:16 am! Then I came home and grabbed stuff for a few errands. Dropped a care package off to Ellyn and went to the Music Box to deliver the cupcake to the stage door guy, who wasn't there so I gave it to the girl and had an awkward run in with Carly... I really hate running into people when making deliveries. Then I came back and had lunch before going back to the theatre to meet with Adam to give him the big delivery of cupcakes and cookies. We chatted in the area just inside the door for a while then I headed back home for a bit.

Way later it was time for Ellyn's show at 54 Below. It started so late but was hilarious! Jake Odmark played the role of Lola to perfection, Ellyn did a hilarious version of her character Gemma Louise's inner monologue. She rapped and people laughed when they saw the pictures during The Last 5 Years song. We said good bye to Dawn, I packed my rush bag and Jo Ann came to stay with us since the show was so late.

Fred and Charlie were cuddling all cute like and I finally read the card Zina sent me on New Year's Day.

Day 149/365 (December 13, 2014)

A long but fun day. First I met with Jo Ann to go to Alice's tea cup for a lovely breakfast. Then we walked around... unfortunately passed an unconscious person an people were freaking out about how long it was taking an ambulance to come. Then it was back home for some Lola time. She helped me make cookies and made a great pun saying something was egg-sellent then cracking up over it. She was sad there wasn't more time to just play. Then I met up with Ellyn and her friend Adam to help her take pictures for her concert. I cannot tell you how much fun I had and the the yummy ice cream too, I think my favorite moments were taking pictures from inside a bathtub for the right angle and the "fight" they had.

Then I scooted off to Queens for David and Karolina's holiday party where I got lost :( The party was lovely and there were empanadas! I even saved James' life at one point because of a poor decision some guy made while holding him. Luckily I was able to stop him from falling.

Day 125/365 (November 19, 2014)

What a really great day! I got a rush ticket to Pippin and when I went to leave work everyone in the office took me across the street to have a fireball shot to celebrate my birthday. I then went home and when I got there Sasha was like "what are you doing home, go in your room, shut the door, and don't come out until i say you can." I interrupted her final birthday gift prep... so I hid out for a touch then was bale to come out.

Glad I saw Pippin and got a super cute picture with Adam Roberts after in his makeup... he was all birthday selfie! He also thought I was 27 so that is a win and someone wished me a Happy Sweet 16. Then I met up with Ally and got my nails done since they needed some maintenance. After I went home and they removed the "un" from the Alice party banner so it said have a very merry birthday to you. I opened my awesome presents including the super cool batgirl tutu and a kitchen torch! Had more of my birthday cheesecake cake (that I had been eating all day... breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack).

Headed out to Deacon Brody's to meet up with some people. Thanks to Sasha, Karen, Jo Ann, Kristen, Lindsay, Hope, Shoshana, and Andrey for joining me. Then went home and had some more drinks with Hope, Sasha, and Karen and Marty Thomas swung by... so overall my day was filled with so much love.

Day 121/365 (November 15, 2014)

went to the gym in the morning, then came home and showered. When Lola came over we had tea party 2.0 for her benefit, costume and all! Jo Ann even came, as well as Sasha's boss and one of the little kids, and Pensk. It was super cute and Lola enjoyed it. We baked "better than brownie cookies" and the two kids decorated them. After it was over I took Lola to NJ to meet up with her dad. Cookies plus whip cream equal YUM!

Earlier in the day Giada (from the food network) tweeted that she couldn't go to Alton Brown's show anymore that night in NYC. Since Alton is big on tweeting via Post-It notes she said to post your funniest Post-It note tweet. I was like ooooo, too bad I am not funny. Then I got this idea and I dressed Fred in a bow-tie (like Alton) and wrote the note from his perspective and sent it in... to my complete shock and surprise and happiness she PICKED ME! I was pretty excited! Sadly ticketmaster was not cooperating so it took her assistant and me working back and forth like two hours before I could finally get the tickets.

The show was still really good. Things were changed up a touch, and he sped up some things and cut a tiny part out, but the really cool thing was Alton had Justin Warner come out and sing (well rap) TV Chef with him... it was ridiculously amazing! I love Justin too, so WIN!

Day 119/365 (November 13, 2014)

It was a low key day, i went to work an got food from Trader Joe's so I wouldn't starve. I was beyond exhausted from all the travels. I go more quality cuddle time with Fred and Charlie and thankfully Jo Ann was not upset with postponing our date night because the thought of moving was too much. I stumbled on the Alice in Wonderland quote and Judge Judy ad.

Day 81/365 (October 6, 2014)

After work I went to the gym for about an hour and kicked my own butt! I somehow managed to do 3 miles on the elliptical in 19 minutes and 43 seconds... a new persona best! I also hit the 2 mile mark at 13:40 which was impressive! Then I came home and lounged for a but and Fred curled up on me... thta is his head resting on my snuggied leg. Later on Charlie curled up next to me and when I went to pet him he grabbed onto my hand and held it tight... it was so cute.

Then I got cleaned up and headed to meet Jo Ann at Red Lobster for our monthly dinner/catch-up friend date. I was proud of myself for not eating the biscuits.... it was difficult but I did it! I just got a garden salad, greens beans, and broccoli! Yum!!!!

Day 46/365 (September 1, 2014)

Another crazy early morning. I had to get up to get on a 6:45 am train to Boston. Then i walked from North Station to South Station (while pausing in Faneuil Hall for some breakfast. I was at South Station way earlier than I needed to be but it was either that or take the next train which would have gotten in after my bus was supposed to leave, I was hoping to get standby on an earlier bus, which thankfully (despite potential revolt) I was able to get on the 10:30. The bus made great time until we got stuck outside of Macy's for a really ong time. After about 15 minutes or so I knew something strange was up because our driver parked the bus and came back to us the bus bathroom! He then told us all he would let us off there. We had no idea why until we were off the bus. I went to walk towards 7th and the entire area was blocked off. The police officer there said there a bomb threat so they couldn't let anyone through and I watched a giant double decker tourist bus trying to turn around to drive out while my poor bolt bus and one other waited their turn to do the same.

I was able to walk home using 6th and unpacked and ate and then got the air mattress ready for Andrey. I then met up with him and did some arts and crafting.

Later i got ready and met up with o Ann since we were going to 54 Below to see Grind: The concert. I knew nothing about the movie or its music but Eric Michael Krop, Anthony Rapp, and Natalie Weiss were performing so that's why I went. Eric even got to perform a few of his personal songs... seriously that dude is insane!  Then I stayed for sMASHed Up... Ben's mash up concert. Andrey and Rachel joined me for that and let me tell you it was cray! Not only did Ben create incredible song arrangements but the performers were just unreal! There were several BIO people which made m happy, including Taylor who has returned to NY (at least for now).. Those videos will become popular! Zach came to it also so we chatted after for a bit. I went home and didn't get to sleep until well after 2... oops!

Day 28/365 (August 14, 2014)

Met up with Jo Ann for our monthly dinner date. We went to a vegetarian restaurant called en Palate... supper yummy! It is always nice catching up with her... then I went home to watch Big Brother with the Roomies, and finally since I have seen Rocky 4 times and it is about to close I went to the stage door to get my playbill signed... i got 4/5 of the people I cared most about and some others so I would call it a win!

Andy Karl really is one of the most genuine and sincere people in existence.... he is such a pleasure. I also got to tell Kevin Del Aguila thanks for his hand in Altar Boyz :)
