Sooo

Safe to say that this day is in my Top 10 of "How did my life turn out like this" Not a good day. At all. But don't ask :) Especially if you don't know me (person on facebook, you should know who you are). Just so everyone knows, Parks and Recreation is HYSTERICAL and really helping me to be in a better mood. It makes me laugh genuinely, which is good for the soul :) The Bud Light is making me happy too. Yea, it's one of THOSE days. I even called and told my friend NOT to come over tonight.
OK, DONE WHINING.
So, I'll be home (Beebe) REAL soon and uh...I need a job. Ideally, for me, I'd like to go back to a bank somewhere. I like that work. HOWEVER, if anyone knows of any temporary work until I can find a "real" job, puhleez let me know. ALSO, I plan to get back to the Premier Designs which I miss very much! A new catalog will be out in January so let me know if you are interested in hosting a show! If you have no idea what I'm talking about, send me a message on Facebook!
For those of you who haven't already seen my pictures on fbook, I SURVIVED MY FIRST BLIZZARD!!! I've never seen anything like what I saw the day after Christmas!! I am not a snow person anyway, but DANG!!! There are now piles on the side of the road that are taller than me. For real. I mean benches and trash can and trash bags and CARS completely covered in snow. And the wind was blowing so hard that the snow was going from the ground up...instead of the other way around. I also enjoyed watching cars spend 2 hours going back and forth within the same 2 feet. I don't think they were too happy when they looked up and saw me staring out the window...on the phone....laughing. Oops.
My Christmas was fantastic!! Those of you who know me know that I don't care so much for the holiday season. I'm better than I used to be, not quite the grinch. Anyhoo, so I had Christmas on Skype with the fam around 10 til 12. Slept til 3. Then my wonderful friend Raj went with me to the movies so I wouldn't have to be alone on Christmas :) We saw The Fighter which was wonderful. I recommend it to all! I'm just sitting around waiting for the day Mark Wahlberg realizes that I need to be the momma of his next child :) Then off to Applebees in Times Square. I was so stoked to be spending Christmas Day in Times Square. I'm such a geek! Then went to watch Black Swan, which was almost impossible to get a ticket for b/c they were always sold out!! That movie was creepy and weird, yet very good!!
Now for New Year's Eve. Pretty sure I'm not going to be watching the ball drop. When you ask a local (my friends) about going to that, they give you the "go to hell" look. SOOOO, looks like that probably won't happen. Can't spend a lot of money, so going to a club is looking bleak. The tickets cost mucho dinero. So yea, something low-key. I know, totally not exciting and I'm in friggin NYC!! Oh oh! I'm also the ONLY cashier supervisor working on New Year's day...so i don't have the lovely option of calling in to work. Not that I would EVER do that anyway ;)
It's getting sorta late so I'm gonna finish watching Parks and Recreation (I'm out of Weeds) and then go to sleep. Hopefully.
Night you lovely people

Dec 2, 2010

Soooo, I'm walking to work this morning, waaaay too early and I hear the sound of a car having a wreck. It def sounded like a car hitting something (trust me, I know that sound) but not another car. I'm still walking to the intersection as all these thoughts are running through my head. I see someone step out of a car, walk around, and not cuss. OH CRAP!!! He must've hit a person. Then I reach the corner. YEP! Hit a poor pedestrian. The guy was laying face down on the ground, with a back pack on. It was COLD too :( No one really reacted. There was one lady knelt on the ground next to him, but the rest of us just kind of stared. Luckily a cop came by and they flagged him down. I had to get to work so I missed the rest. The guy lived I'm pretty sure. He was doing some jerking thing when I looked. Like he was coughing or puking. Hopefully not having a seizure! 
Seems like there are a few other things I was gonna tell you guys. One thing I just wrote about, and then erased. After yesterday's blog, I'll just sound bitter. And I'm really not. I should be the happiest girl in the world! And really, I am happy. Oh, i take that back. Just finished my last episode of Weeds. What the heck am I gonna do until Season 6 gets on Netflix?!?! 
I super miss Tucker. I saw him on Skype last night. First time any of us had skyped in a while. I just wanted to reach through the screen and grab him!! 
Oh, I remember something. I was waiting patiently today outside the subway doors for the passengers to get off when this guy just jumps right in the middle of the door and IN FRONT OF ME! What was he thinking? lol So i just stared at him. He must have felt the hole burning in his head so he turned to look at me (my look didn't change) and he stuck out his hands in a "go ahead" gesture. SCORE! 
Ok, I don't have anything else worth talking about. Or at least I'll think of it when I get off of here. I'm going to watch "Up" and enjoy my night! Take care!
Love,
Sheray

Tis the Season

It's the first day of December. It's rainy, windy and gloomy out. Fitting. Difference is that the high is 57 and it may storm tonight...in New York City. I even woke up at 8 assuming it was noon and have yet to go back to sleep. Has hell frozen over? Last night they lit the tree at Rockefeller. I would have liked to go see it, but after that ordeal in Oregon, well I'd rather not take my chances.
Does anyone watch Weeds? I'm addicted. Better to be addicted to the show than what the show is based on! Nancy Botwin is a horrible person who does not have any responsibility for her actions!!! Ok, I'm better now. 
So, some of you may not want to read this next part as you will find it offensive. I started looking at a certain wedding album online earlier. Picture after picture was couple after couple...from Beebe. Or possibly the very close surrounding area. It just makes me wonder though, really what are the chances of finding your "soul mate" in a population of 5000 people? I'm not saying it can't happen, and i have some dear, dear friends who found each other in Beebe and I truly believe that they are meant to be together forever. HOWEVER, I think many other people just get to this certain age and think that for whatever reason (pressure) they MUST find someone. Heaven forbid we turn 30 and not be married. I really am not trying to offend anyone, I just get so frustrated sometimes. It just made me thankful that I am where I am at the moment and to not rush the next 2 mos that I have left here in this city. Going back to Beebe is starting to make me scared b/c I don't want to fall into that trap of settling with whoever happens to be single when I get there. And I know it will happen. History repeats itself!! :) Or maybe there is a certain someone I'd like to be with BUT it might kill a few family members on both sides of our families if that were to ever happen. Some of us (me) would like to just be single and enjoy it and not feel that pressure of needing to hurry and settle down with a "suitable" career and getting married and start breeding. Again, more power to you if you're on this track right now. I, however, am not and from the looks of it, won't be for a long, long time. I'm gonna quit rambling now. Today is my day off and I usually spend these days being homesick and contemplating jumping on the next plane home. This morning has given me a new (old) light and reminded me of all I wanted to get away from. I do look forward to being happy and in love SOME DAY.
So today, I'm going to get out in this blahness and enjoy all that this city has to offer!!! It's what i came for! At least it's not cold today :) Pay rent for my apartment, that helps to pay the landlords rent in his fancy shmancy office, prob go to Rockefeller, and last but not least....Walgreens :) Good day. Then I'll come back and finish Weeds more than likely. Big day. Study for a job that is at a basic stand still for employment? Doubtful. I'm doing better tho. At this point I just want to be done with it. Everyone have a lovely day. I mean that. Regardless of who you married :) JOKING!!!!! 
Love,
Sheray
