BACK IN ACTION
Well, I am back from my mini-vacation. It never is long enough and this time was surely no exception. I don’t know how I’m going to get used to getting up when the alarm goes off. I’m so used to sleeping in until noon now. It feels odd to get up at 7:30am. I mean, who DOES that? Oh yeah…me.
Had an incredible week. Got to see Wicked for free on Wednesday night. Hung with a good friend on Thursday and again on Saturday. Made my rounds as best as I could. BUT the best part about the week was because of my (always surprising me) boyfriend.
On Saturday night, Paul and I had some drinks with his roommates and then went out to the classiest and best dinner I have ever had in NYC. We were both a bit toasted from our cocktails, so we wanted to go eat locally. He had heard that Hearth was a good place and that it was rated two stars, which for NYC restaurants is a HUGE deal.
We each ordered the tasting menu. We both had 6 courses, including duck, trout, sirloin, and chicken. We then had this amazing soup and dessert. Paul ordered one of the most expensive bottles of wine on the menu and we followed it up with a beautiful bottle of dessert wine. I mean, the kid spoiled me rotten and we had the best time of our life. The bill…well, let’s just say that it takes me two weeks to make that kind of money.
Paul is known for spoiling me as well as his friends. But lately, he and I have been doing so well, that he has taken great liberties in treating me like a true princess. I mean, honestly, I’ve never been happier with him. He has been sweet and kind and funny as fuck. I about shit every time he opens his mouth. The dinner was just…extra. And what an extra it was! If it weren’t for Paul, I would never get to see this side of NYC. You know, the classy side.
Let’s see…what else? Going into the weekend I hadn’t seen Kill Bill. Now, I’ve seen it three times. I ADORE Quentin and his movies are like guilty pleasures times a thousand. I have already asked for the movie for my birthday. I mean, I can’t rent it EVERY weekend.
This week is hectic as my mom is coming to town! Once a year she comes to NYC on business and we always have the time of our life. Tomorrow night we are sure to have dinner together…meaning we will drink two bottles of wine and call it a night. On Thursday, I’m bringing Paul and maybe a friend of mine to have a REAL dinner. Time to show her what NYC is REALLY like. Haha. You know I’m taking her to the gayest restaurants ever. I mean, my mom’s a Gaylord, right?
Other than that, it’s pretty quiet in my world. Very happy. Very healthy (although Paul and I got some sort of flu on Sunday). I am caught up on all my television programs and visits with people. It feels like I am on top of everything right now and I know that can’t be right. There’s always some sort of drama right around the corner. So I’ll keep you informed as it happens. It will make for a much better entry. Cuz really…what’s “Cut the Shit” without SOME sort of petty drama going on?
I better go take ANOTHER shit now. You don’t eat 6 courses at a fancy dinner and expect to get it all out in one dump!
ENJOY THE DAY MY LOVELIES!
