I officially HATE flying

I was going to devote this post to the ABSOLUTELY AMAZING time I had in DC this weekend, and the fact that I officially want to move there. I was also going to post pictures of my weekend in DC, my lovely koozie, my amazing summer swap package that I got in the mail, and thank Denise over at Seersucker Scrapper for the lovely award she gave me. But no...today I'm going to devote my post to why I HATE flying. 

When I first booked my trip to DC I had the option of taking a 7:20 or 8:50 flight. Because I had to babysit at 8:30 this morning before my internship I decided to take the 7:20 which would get in at 9. After the great but tiring weekend (probably had to do with the fact that I didn't get to bed before 4am every night...oops!) I was looking forward to getting home, having a late dinner, watching True Blood and going to bed. 

Well Jet Blue had different plans for me. After taking a metro and a loooooong bus ride to Dullus I was informed that my flight was now leaving at 9 which really sucked but whatever. I walked around for awhile had an overpriced dinner with a couple glasses of wine at Max and Ermas and waited for the flight. At 830 they told us that the ground hold Boston had was lifted and both flights were now immediately going. 

Well getting on the plane was kinda funny because as soon as the lady announced that the ground hold was lifted she said everyone had to leave NOW so people were running from their chairs to the gates (which were right next to each other) and it totally reminded me of that part in Armageddon when the Freedom  and Independence shuttles were loading (I had a lot of time to think of the comparison last night haha.) So we get on the plane and are all ready to go at 8:45 which was the fastest boarding time ever and I'm pumped because I can get home relatively on time. So we're sitting ready to go and the pilot comes on thanks everyone for their patience and then announces that the ground hold's back on so we're going to be sitting on the plane until 10. BAHHHHHH!!!! We finally end up leaving at 10:20 (i think...I fell asleep around 10) and got into Boston at 11:40, and I was FINALLY home at 12:30. 

UGH I am so sick of flying and delays it's not even funny! When I got back from FLA on Jet Blue (hmmm maybe there's a pattern here) I didn't get into Boston until 1am so I guess it could have been worse but getting up this morning was HORRIBLE. Thank goodness for HSM3 which entertained the girls the entire time I was there haha. I looked SO rough at my internship this morning it was pretty funny but at least I got to leave about 30 min early so that was good. 

So sorry for this LONG ranting post and I promise tomorrow will be MUCH happier! Off to take a nap, catch up on Google Reader (280 posts!) Jillian, and TV. Have a great Monday night!

ETA: Whoops forgot to add RIP Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, and Oxy Clean guy. It was SO weird with MJ because as I was sitting waiting for the plane on thursday it said he was in a coma and then two min later when we got on the plane he died...so weird/sad. However as much as I LOVE MJ's music I thought I was going to rip my ears off at the non stop MJ marathons they were playing in the bars/restaurants this weekend. Was I the only one going a little crazy with all the nonstop MJ music?

ETA2: Sorry I'm not commenting on alot of posts...I'm trying to read all posts in the google reader but I'm not commenting that much...will comment regularly tomorrow!!

I have the maturity of a 10 year old

Today when I went to blogger dashboard I saw that I have 69 followers....hehehe. Then at work I wrote an article about a client's work with Cuming Corporation. I probably laughed about that one for the entire time I was writing the article.... soo about 45 minutes. I then came to the conclusion that I am probably the immature person alive however in my defense it's STILL raining and I needed all the entertainment I could get. Anyone else out there that still laughs at stupid things like this or is it just me??

Naples!

I hope everyone is having a great week! Nothing too exciting happening right now...after my shopping spree at Frugal Fannies I was bad and went to TJ Maxx and Target yesterday and found some really cute stuff! At TJ I found an awesome Matty M navy maxi dress which I think I'm going to take with me to DC this weekend and at Target I found the Tracy Feith white zip up dress which will be SO cute for this weekend as well! After DC I'm DEF going to have to slow down on shopping for a while! 

Sooooo without further ado here are some pictures from Naples! 

Me, S, and S's Mom at this AWESOME bar called the English Pub! We went on the first night and seriously had the BEST time! 

Also at the English Pub...we had LOTS of fun taking pictures that night!! 

At Tommy Bahamas for dinner on the 2nd night...it was so delicious! 


The beautiful sunset...my favorite part of Naples! 


The English Pub

My other favorite part of Naples...the pier and the beach!





HAPPY HUMP DAY!! This week is almost over...YAY and can anyone else believe that this is the LAST WEEK in June? I can't believe next weekend is the 4th of July...crazy this summer is flying by! If you're having rain like we are...stay dry!

Enough Already!!

Ugh I think I can speak for everyone in the Boston/New York/New England region when I say ENOUGH ALREADY with this rain!! I really don't think I can take anymore of this and hopefully the weather people are right and this will stop by Wednesday! I'm going to DC this weekend with S so hopefully the weather will be nice there! 

Despite the gross weather my weekend was GREAT! Friday C and I as well as a couple of my HS friends got together for L, one of my bff's 21st birthday! It was SO much fun...we went to this amazing restaurant called La Summa in the North End and then bar hopped around the Faneuil Hall area. Oh man if you are ever in the area PLEASE go to La Summa....seriously some of the BEST Italian food I've ever had and it wasn't that expensive either! I had the Gnocci (sp?) which was so delish, but I tried everyone else's too and everything there was just great! We wanted to head over to Mike's Pastry after for some birthday cannolis but were so full we skipped them and headed to the bars!

The weather cleared just in time to go out and it wasn't too humid either which made it such a great evening! The first three pics are a couple touristy pictures I took while walking to the restaurant. Even though I go to this area fairly often it was way too nice out not to take a couple pictures!! 




K, L, and C at La Summa

We saw this boutique while walking to the restaurant and L, L, and I HAD to take a picture under it! Besides having a GREAT name (haha) the clothes looked really cute so I might have to stop by for a peek! 

All of us (C, G, Me, L, and K) at the first bar

Me and the bday girl


 G, Me, K, and L towards the end of the night haha

After waking up on Saturday morning at L's apartment and feeling a little, um, ROUGH haha I headed off to work in the boutique for the day which was somewhat interesting because I was SOOO tired! That night I decided to take it somewhat easy and went to see the Proposal with my family. OMG it was GREAT!! Ryan Renolds and Sandra Bullock were adorable and it was the funniest, cutest movie! Definitely one for the DVD collection! It was also fun because the theater where we saw it has dinner and drinks for you while you watch the movie which was lots of fun as well! 

Yesterday I had to work (boo) but before I headed to Frugal Fannies to check out the Molly B close out sale (KLC also mentioned this on her blog) We sell Molly B at my store and although the company still exists the stuff at Frugal Fannies is from her old warehouse which she sold to new people.  OMG if you are AT ALL in the are PLEASE GO NOW! Your closet will thank you and your wallet won't be hurting that much either! I got a dress, a skirt, and two tops and spent 55 dollars! Woohoo! I have pictures but I think I posted enough in this post so I'll put them up later. After work and Shredding, we had a great Father's day dinner with portobello mushroom burgers (they were delish!) and potato salad with carrot cake for dessert, and then I watched True Blood which was FANTASTIC! Was it just me or was this ep funnier than ususal? I found my self laughing alot and I am obsessed with Eric's new haircut! I also found Bill SO HOT when he was screaming at Sookie and pissed off at the end of the ep....next week looks so good! Have a great Monday and stay dry!

Happy Father's Day!!





Happy Father's Day to all the GREAT dad's out there! Unfortunately I had to work in the boutique today so I couldn't hang out with my dad during the day but I hope you had a great time hanging out (or talking to) your dads! I absolutely love my mom to death but I am a total daddy's girl at heart. My dad and I have really similar personalities and a favorite activity that we've done since I was little is go out to lunch together on weekends. Even when I'm away at school I always talk to my dad (usually on Saturdays) and we always have such a great time! I love him so much and he is the greatest! Hope you all had a great Father's day and a great weekend!!
