oh virginia

i've been having a hard time blogging on a consistent basis. possibly because my life isn't as exciting as i thought it was? or because i've been busy...which is a joke because i haven't done one productive thing since winter break began. so we'll go with the first idea. my life isn't that exciting...so i apologize for the lack of blogging...lets hope the new year will bring a little more excitement into my life.
Anyway, this past week of my life was spent in Virginia. I spent most of the time doing laundry, catching up on much needed mom chores (sewing pants, getting hair cuts, convincing her I need a new car) I had quite the to-do list and most of it wasn't accomplished which isn't surprising seeing as virginia tends to prevent me from doing everything I want to. Not to mention my car registration is expired and I couldn't renew it online, and of course the DMV makes life hard ever when you're not there...they were closed today. Point of that story was that I couldn't drive ANYWHERE while I was here.

I did get some serious quality time with Beau...my dog. He's actually snuggling next to me right now. He's got this thing for giant comforters and holes. He's been snuggled like this for about two hours and will probably stay there all night.So precious. He's one reason I hate leaving virginia, he gives me this look as i'm walking to my car like "you're leaving again?" ughh at this point in my life i would imagine it's probably what it feels like when you leave your kid at preschool for the first time. The look is heartbreaking.

Along with my serious time spent with my dog I finally caught up with some of my good friends. I haven't seen a lot of them in over two years, and haven't spoken to a few in that amount of time. It was amazing catching up and seeing what everyone was doing with their lives (haha just did a typo with lives...made it livers which is hysterical if you knew these girls and how they drink) of course there were explanations from me about why i had basically gone m.i.a. for two years...but it was the healthiest choice for myself and these girls of course understand that.
We went to Hooters one night, which has been a tradition since highschool...we'd go there once a week. Of course it was only fitting we see one of our highschool teachers there. We sent him a water, we felt that was the appropriate thing to do since we didn't have much money. He enjoyed the water and even came over to make the awkward situation more awkward by saying hi. We also enjoyed a night out at the bars, which was nice. I feel good because that was one of my new years resolutions (to get in touch and stay in touch with old friends) i've accomplished the first part now to accomplish the second :).

I also went to the chiropractor which honestly was probably the best thing I did all week. I have had this crick in my back for months now and almost every day I'm asking Edward to try and crack my back, this thing just would not crack. It had been bothering me more and more, the other morning I woke up and could barely move. Today it was fixed. "Breathe in, breathe out and realax..." and then heaven. Oh my god was the feeling of this guy cracking my back fantastic. I could just feel everything loosen up the second he did it. It's like finally getting that itch you couldn't reach scratched. So kudos to him for making my life a little better, now if I could just figure out how he did it. :).

I head back to NY tomorrow and although I'll miss virginia I am ready to head home. I miss it up there and especially a certain person. :) I don't like spending weeks away from him...it's torture.

I promise I will be trying to blog a little more, and hopefully make my life a little more exciting. I have a list of things I want to do this year and I have every intention of accomplishing that. I've already got one planned :) I want to see the Harlem Globe Trotters...and they're coming to Albany...soooo hint hint.

Long drive tomorrow :)

oh and check out Adele...fell in love with her voice today :)

peace&love
