Oh, hello there: No Sorries

I just realized its been nearly 2 full weeks since my last post.  I also just realized that if I continue to "apologize"(and not really mean it of course) for not posting regularly, its going to get old.  But really, if Vittoria is back and better than ever, I'm going to have to start to get religious about this.  Although not really, but all of the sudden I felt very passionate about that.

Ok LOTS to say.

Here's what I've been up to... in case you care.

1.  Zyrtec is GOOD.  Worst allergy season ever, eh?  I was the cheerleader at cheer camp in high school who was approached by the camp leaders to question me about doing drugs.  I had barely had my growth spurt yet at about 5'2 and was still wearing Limited Too clothes. In HS, and they thought I was on drugs.  Why? Oh, my eyes were bloodshot, swollen and I was pretty loopy.  Right, we were also in the cornfields of Pennsylvania=hello allergens.  I have been pretty shocked for about 2 months as to why I've only coughed once or twice, why I'm able to wear contacts and why I am not attached to a tissue box.  Then my throat and ear tubes became "dysfunctional" (ask my dr. she used that exact term). Apparently THAT is how I'm affected by the worst allergy season ever. Lovely.

2. VITTORIA IS BACK. And I missed her.  Oh, you missed her too? Well I'm one of her "real life friends(jealz?!)", so multiply your missage by a couple and thats me. Yay for seeing her in a week and a half though.

3.  Jen Lancaster's 5th book came out.  I finally started reading it this week.   Start with "Bitter is the new black" and go from there.  You can borrow mine.  Everyone should be reading her work.  I carried "My Fair Lazy" around the office one day and introduced 2 new people to the world that is Jennsylvania.  Honestly? She uses "stabby" as a descriptive feeling.  As in, "she's making me feel all stabby". Heart.

4. Was at that specialty-ish grocery store again.  Picked up 2 crabs.  THIS time (of course, because now I know) fish counter man says "would you like me to 'clean' them for you?"... (after the conversation I just had with bf about if he would do my dirty work again and he was a little bit psyched to do it).  I ran and checked with him and he looked sad, so I asked fish counter man to leave them as is and I will take them home.  We get home and...? crabs are dead. Legit.  I actually called the store to make sure they were still safe to eat.  I'm not one with food.

5.  ITS FRESH FRUIT SEASON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I am so excited to, it better be soon, have a free weekend day to go strawberry picking.  Its one of the only fruits that I love but have yet to pick my own. (of the varieties, that you know, you actually can at a pyo place)

6.  Any good little Jews out there?  I thought I was going crazy when, last summer, the Black Eyed Peas released "I Got A Feeling" (Is that its name?) and I kept hearing a Hebrew word in the background.  NO, not "Mazel Tov", I'm no moron.. everyone with hearing capacity knows those words are in that song, thanks.  I kept hearing "L'Chaim".  If you don't, listen again.  Its at the chorus part where they say a word loudly and then it sounds like a techno beat is echoing.  They say "MAZEL TOV!" then, in a techno beat "L'Chaim".  I only recently, (its been out how long?) actually Googled the lyrics, and I'm right. Thanks songwriters, you make me smile.

7. I came home from work the other day, sent bf a gchat message saying "are you coming home". 36 minutes later, the following comes through on gchat.  Definitely "Shiz my boyfriend says" (courtesy of LiLu, yes I read your blog ;-) material.  Totally reminds me of "monkey monkey underpants", which is still one of the greatest TV lines, to me at least).
