| California. |
[14 Apr 2007|10:32am] |
Lately I've been finding myself missing California moreso than I have in a while. It's not that I miss the state itself; I miss my life that I had in CA. I've been missing Shannon and Gar-Ye like crazy... they were the best girlfriends I've ever had and I miss that female companionship.
I miss getting silly drunk with Gar and laughing for hours on end over absolutely nothing. I miss calling her for the sole purpose of asking if she felt like coming over so we could take a nap on the coma-inducing couches at 3041 Woods Circle. I miss going to San Francisco and having the mutual agreement with Gar that if need be, one of us would sleep in the car for the other. I miss waking up from a heavy night of drinking, and asking "Dude, what the fuck happened last night?" I miss Wednesday nights at Sophia's. I miss eating Super Hippo Burritos from Guad while watching CSI. I miss getting wicked irritated at Shannon for having ridiculously loud sex every goddamn night right over my bedroom with Man Boobies. I miss all of the spontaneous camping trips Shan and I used to go on, disappearing from Davis for days and coming back with crazy whitewater rafting stories. I miss being able to read each other's thoughts without saying a single word. I miss having someone to watch chick flicks with. I miss having a female friend that isn't exhausting to have a friendship with.
I miss having so much anxiety for what's next? I'm at what's next, and there's no more anxiety.

| It's been a long time (again). |

A few little updates:
1. I just got back from a vacation in the Caribbean. Did lots of hiking, snorkeling and relaxing. Now I'm super tan (or just appear to be tan due to my freckles) in a world of wicked white people.
2. I just found out from my mom that she's going to let me take her horse for the winter. I wanted this so bad, but now that she's agreed to it, I'm hesitant.
a. I'll be giving up a lot of money for board every month, making my plan to rid my credit card debt over the next 14 months nearly impossible.
b. It's COLD here. I'll need to ride him at least 3-4 times a week to keep him in condition, which means sucking it up and going to the barn in the freezing cold and pitch black (they have an indoor arena) after working a 9 hour day.
c. He's a really valuable horse. If anything happens to him, I probably won't be able to cover the cost...
d. I can't afford to buy him, so I'll still need to have him for sale. It'll be tough giving him up if I find a buyer for him.
3. I moved in with my boyfriend.
4. I basically don't drink anymore. Weird.

HI JUD!
I'm back on the fucking seacoast. I'm wicked sorry for being all east coast and at the lake when you called me 28 million times.
Call me when you're back in Boston and I promise I'll make it up to you**
**Yes, this does mean threesome.

+ I can rent a car
- I'm officially classified as being in my "mid-twenties"
|
|
| I figure it's about time for an update. |
[18 May 2006|03:30pm] |
1. I think the flooding is over. Fortunately, I didn't have to evacuate my apartment, but everyone just a couple blocks away did.
2. I moved into my very own one bedroom apartment... just me and my dog. And my awesome rug.
3. It's comforting coming home almost every night, knowing I'll be able to watch the Red Sox.
4. I partied with a magician until 6am last Friday. He put a ball in my hand, had me clasp it shut, and when I opened it about 20 seconds later, there were two balls...and they were blue.
5. Metal Jeff (from Davis) is here.
6. I'm back to fisting horses again.
7. I'll be in CA from June 16-25th.
8. I haven't gotten laid in forever.
9. I snuck a flask of scotch into the hospital for my grampa.
10. I haven't yet decided if being within walking distance to the bars of Dover is a good or bad thing.

I haven't let my dog sleep in my bed with me for a looooong time cause he's a total bed-hog and snores really loud. Last night, I woke him up and made him jump up in my bed.
Guess it was just one of those nights...

Very minimal re-cap:
- I was laid off from the job I moved back to NH for
- I moved about 2 hours from where I used to be living... I now live with a 65 year old dude who has a limited number of teeth and takes percocet and vicodin for headaches
- I started working for a real estate company (something I still laugh about cause I can't picture myself doing it)
- Started taking classes for said real estate license
- The guy I had been "kinda sorta dating" moved to CA
- Erica and I finally became real life friends
- My boobs have shrunk
- My dog has become my best friend

Zach called me this morning to see if I wanted to hang out with him today. Of course, I did.
So, I was taking the back roads up there and hit the dirt road and my car went crazy. It started off just fishtailing in the snow a little bit, and I don't know if I over-corrected or what, but I ended up all over the road until it did a 180, went into the ditch, went onto two wheels and miraculously corrected itself before rolling over.
Needless to say, I was just about shitting myself.
Welcome back to snowy New Hampshire, Kerry.

I was supposed to go to Connecticut for Thanksgiving, but I bailed.
Growing up, my father always had me Thanksgiving and my mom always had me for Christmas. Every year, my dad and I would go to my grandmother's in CT and the rest of my (father's) family would meet there. Since I haven't been there for one in 6 years because I've been in California, it was expected that I be there...
...and I really was planning on it...
And then I found out my father would be there. But, I decided I was just going to suck it up and face him.
And then...
My grandmother called me about 2 weeks ago asking if I would be bringing anyone with me. I said I'd be alone and she goes, "Oh, well I guess you'll be the only one out of the 7 grandkids without a special someone there." Awesome. Thanks, Grandma.
Sooo....
I called my cousin, Joe, whom I've always been really close with. First, I bitched at him for bringing his girlfriend with him (don't these people have their own families they need to go to?!?) and then he told me he was planning to go to grad school. That's the one that just about did it for me. Joe and I made a pact a long time ago that we were going to be the only ones to not go to an Ivy League school, have any aspirations to have an MD following our name, or go to grad school. Joe failed.
So, to make a long story short: I stayed in bed all day, save frolicking in the snow with my dog a few times, watching stupid chick flicks. I was going to make spicy chicken wings, but that turned into mac and cheese.
I'm so glad Thanksgiving is over.

Today I was driving in Durham, coming up over a hill when I saw a cop. I knew I was going over the speed limit, so I slowed way down, but he turned around...
I was going really slow until I saw this road off to the left, so I sped up wicked fast to take the turn to try to get rid of him. JUST as I was turning, I saw him out of my rearview and he turned into the road, so I knew I was screwed.
He put on his blues and pulled me over. I already had my license and registration out (and was SO psyched I had JUST gotten my NH license a few days prior). He walked up to me and said, "I'm pulling you over cause you were going 49 in a 30...do you know that?" Any normal person getting pulled over would say anything other than, "I know I was going faster than I should have been," but nooooo.....
So, he walks back to his cruiser and then comes back with just a warning. I said thank you, rolled up my window, with him waiting for me to take off. I drive about 50 feet and realize that the left turn I made into that road? Yeah, it was a friggin cul-de-sac! I'm thinking, "You've gotta be shittin' me, Bruce!"
The cop was right behind me, so I had to pull into someone's driveway, get out of my car, and knock on their door, so it wouldn't be completely obvious that I was trying to escape him to begin with.
Goddamn cul-de-sacs.

Since my ex boyfriend screwed me (which, unfortunately, wasn't the case when we were actually together), I'm going to be back in Davis on Oct. 25th (which is a Tuesday) and then I have to leave again on Friday...unless I happen to hit a really bad storm on my way back that delays me, in which case, I'll leave on Saturday.
I'd LOVE to see as many people as I can in that short time. I'm planning on being at Sophia's on Wednesday...
**If anyone happens to run into Gar, PLEASE don't tell her I'm coming...I'm gonna surprise her**
Also, if anyone knows of someone looking for a ride to Boston, LET ME KNOW.

I just made my flight reservations to go to Ireland for St. Patty's Day(!!!!!!!!!)
I've looked Irish my entire life, but of course, I leave for Ireland the day after I get back from the Virgin Islands so I'm gonna be all dark and stuff.
Feel bad for me.

[15 Sep 2005|05:39am] |
I had to euthanize Griffin, a horse that's been in the hospital for about 6 weeks who I spent SO MUCH time working on and getting really attached to. This was at 3pm.
At 4pm, I left work to go get my dog from my mom's house to have her euthanized. She was 16 years old and it was absoltuely time, but really, really sad.
On my way home from euthanizing Cocoa, the barn manager where I've had my childhood horse called and said I needed to make a decision soon as to whether I wanted to let him go through another winter cause his Cushings is getting bad...
Yesterday sucked.

Shot Night was a success.
It ended up in a game of tackle football, girls against boys, that started inside, went outside, then apparently came back inside.
I ended up with:
- A partial black eye
- A hyper-extended knee
- Serious black and blues all over my body
- Two ripped back toenails
- A missing shirt
The boys ended up with:
- No clothes
I almost feel bad for the guy that I think I might kinda sorta be dating when we go out in public... people can give some really nasty looks when they think you're a woman-beater.
