Mexican cream

whats cool about today....right now... is that I am sitting OUTSIDE at a coffee shop. At a cute little table in the sun, winter jacket at home. It's beautiful outside. I feel like I have to take advantage of this while it is here. On the down side it smells like the city is one giant easy bake oven cooking up a melange of dog shit, garbage and underground sewage. I just try not to breathe. Like most days of my life.
You know, lately ive been thinking a lot about a lot... and a lot is not fun to think about because it gets to be a lot. A lot of people would agree. A lot of the time, a lot should just be ignored and a little should be embraced. The other night it was our 3 year anniversary at work. A bunch of us were done our shifts so we hung out by the bar and drank. Even the managers were doing shots with us! I ended up getting way more drunk than expected and loved every minute of it. Myself and about 5 other girls then went down to the East Village to hit up a late night diner and I unfortunately ate the grossest nachos known to man. I was so drunk I was dipping my nachos in mexican cream instead of sour cream. hahaha. At one point i was dipping my nacho into NOTHING ... the TABLE TOP. One of the girls noticed and immediately called me out leaving me with no excuse but to just admit my extreme level of intoxication. 
it was a great night!
then LAST night at work was the super bowl and the same sort of thing went down minus majority of the staff. Rather is was myself, a few girls i work with, one of the girls' parents and a bunch of British people on their last day of vacay. After the steelers took home the win the place cleared out we drank and danced in the restaurant to a slew of classic oldies. It was such a good time We all lined up and did the can can to NEW York NEW YORK. And that my friends classifies as the little that goes unnoticed in the middle of a lot. I am lucky to have met and made some great friends at my new job and I am looking forward to getting to know them all more.
We actually have our holiday staff party tonight. I'm sure its going to be a mess of a time. I unfortunaely lost my keys last night and stood out front of my apartment ringing the buzzer for 30 minutes at 2:30 in the morning. I rang every single apartment in a drunken rage till someone finally buzzed me in the building. I then marched up 6 flights and knocked incessantly on my door to no avail. I accepted defeat and called jacquie who i work with and happens to live 2 blocks away. Jacquie and I got well acquainted after we had dinner and drinks friday night and by 10 oclock she was too drunk to stand so we got in a cab and went home. I would have liked to stay out but i am a good friend. Anyways, so jacquie lives 2 blocks away and I ended up just sleeping at her house. We stayed up wailing Sia and eventually fell asleep listening to spoon. I got a mere 3 hours of sleep as I had to get up at 8 in the morning and walk across town to meet Miranda and get new keys made. I have yet to go back to sleep and DO plan on attending holiday party. Lets see how that goes...
Merry Warm Day in February everyone :)
