So today at work I accidentally swallowed a mint. Oh it hurt! Have you ever had the feeling that it’s lodged at the top of your throat and you keep swallowing fearlessly hoping that it will move down but now matter what you do (like buying a Hanson Vanilla Soda) will not make the situation fell better. It happened to me! 6 hours later I still feel like it’s there. damn mint!
So I started taking yoga classes again and it’s been awhile since I have gotten myself in to those poses. I’ve been so stiff that I thought it would do me some good and make me feel better overall. I am so NOT flexible anymore…..it’s sad. My body was freaking out on me yesterday. There was one point when I was in a pose that my abdomen started twitching out of control! I couldn’t concentrate on my breathing because of it. I’m going again tomorrow. I’m excited but I’m going to be so sore.
Work is good. I am taking over 2 accounts for the next few months. We’ll see how they go

Could You please come get me!…… What a catchy tune! I always get this stuck in my head. This weekend was fun. My Roommates and I rented a car and went up to Vermont for the weekend. It was so nice to get out of the city for awhile. The drive was nice. The leaves were all changing color and it’s not flat uninteresting plains like I’m used to in Colorado! There was a point where we hit gridlock due to the torrential downpours we have been having washing the the road away! SO…..we decided to prank call people while we waited 3hours to move 3 miles. It was a fun time. We stayed at my roommates Aunt and Uncles in Montpelier. We did a bit of hiking (in the rain mind you) to a old aviary tower on the top of a hill. It was so beautiful with the hillside covered in waves of red, orange, green, and yellow. I can’t wait to go back. My friend Rachel is coming down this week! I went to school with her in Colorado. I’m so excited to see her.

So Lets see….. Friday night I went to the Nickel Creek show at the Nokia Theatre that just opened a few weeks ago. It’s a pretty nice place. I have to say I like them a lot. They are one of our clients at work so I got VIP tix and hung out backstage after the show with my Co worker. It was a really fun time. After that we headed downtown to the Knitting Factory to see Juliana Hatfield. It was a very awkward performance. that’s all I’m going to say. She is also a client of ours.
It has been raining like crazy here. Katie and I went to brave the rain yesterday and went and got sushi at this place in the east village. I think it’s my new favorite place. So I put on my gortex jacket thinking it will keep me dry.. NOPE!!!!!! I was so wet. We headed home to get ready to go out. A friend of a friend was having a birthday party in Red Hook that we were going to attend. We got ready to go and well of course my “Rain” coat doesn’t work and I don’t have a umbrella, so we brave the rain. It actually wasn’t that bad until right before we got to the subway DOWN POUR! AHHH!!! Now I’m soaked and have a wet wool blazer on. (the smell) I was so irritated. We were meeting our roommates on Bedford. I was so uncomfortable just feeling like I had jumped in a pool. to make this story shorter lets just say getting to Red Hook is not easy. We were outside in the rain from about 9 to 11.
The bar was sweet and for Toms B-Day they had Leslie and the LY’S perform! SO AWESOME!!! haha you can check out some of their videos here. I think you will all like her! haha After the night was over I didn’t feel that bad about being so wet. I had a really great time. I have to buy myself a good umbrella.

so this is not the first time this happened to me. Today at lunch Margaret brought up that one of our other Co-workers said I looked like I should be a Ralph Lauren/ jcrew model. HAHA WHAT!!!!?????? I had the same comment from another lady in Boulder. I don’t know If I should be flattered or not. They said my face is so pure and clean. Ahh ok? I guess I am flattered but I certainly don’t look like a model thats for sure. Maybe thats what I should do here in NY. Become a model. HA! Then my friend Tayllor agreed. She said she could see me sitting in a hay field with corduroy on. it’s funny because I own anything that I can think of that even looks “preppy.”

So this weekend was nice and relaxing. I went to the Village on Friday night with Katie and we went to this Mexican food place. it wasn’t good. All I want is real Mexican food and I can’t find it anywhere. I’m guessing I won’t either. If I do that is going to be my favorite restaurant. We then met up with Jeff and Mavi at cowgirls. It’s a pretty fun bar. I felt Like i was in Colorado again. Saturday Katie Julia and I walked around the city and finally set myself up with a checking account!! Woo Hoo. We saw some dance group from Japan calling themselves sperm? pretty entertaining. I met up i with my friend Neil who came down from Boston and we went to the MET. I felt bad because I only paid a dollar to get in. They give suggested donations but I only had a dollar. Then I figured that this place is not hurting for money so I didn’t feel so bad. I think i might buy a year membership. It’s a good deal and It’s too large to see everything once anyway. Today I looked for some books on sashiko but couldn’t find what I wanted. I also went to a Organ recital. It was pretty sweet. I also decided to brush out the mane. I forgot how big it gets. haha
