my weekend

edgar got to meet my dad's side of the family on saturday!
i went out with gen and courtney on friday - i got hit on by two guys :) one was just gross, but the first guy was funny! he came up beside me and whispered (as much as you can whisper in a loud bar) i've got a step ladder back at my place. yeah, he was about a foot shorter than me . . . no chance of getting play, but he gets an E for effort.

sunday - i barely got out of bed :) edgar came over at like 11 and we laid in bed until 1. then went out for breakfast and got chai (that's our thing now - we're chai drinkers :) ) then we came back to my apartment and watched maria full of grace (again, in my bed - you can see where the 'barely got out of bed' came from) at like 9, he got to do my shopping with me :) walmart, then two different wegman's. yup, we are THAT domestic :)

i saw jessie for like an hour on friday night and for about 10 minutes on sunday. we talked on wednesday - so things are starting to get better. she's picking up extra shifts though to save money so she can go away for ten days around new years. i'm REALLY excited for those 10 days. she'll be happy because she's going snow boarding with nadia (friend from high school, i don't know if you guys know any stories) and i'll be happy because edgar can basically live in my apartment for that time.

in the short term, though, there is only one thing on my mind - NYC!!! everything is making me think about it. today, our lab meeting was really a prep session for a bigger presentation being given on friday. it was very very dry, and i would be dreading going to it again on friday but wait - i don't have to! i'm planning my experiments this week to be done by wednesday so i can just do non-intensive stuff on thursday. i've already started thinking about packing - and i'll probably start putting it in my bag tonight :) SO EXCITED!
