My boyfriend? Is awesome.
Wednesday night I picked up some groceries after book shopping with liya, on my way home my boyfriend called to ask if he could stop by before he went home. I live 20 minutes of his way.
He unloaded the groceries, put them away, and did the dishes in the time it took me to go upstairs and change into pajamas. And when I tried to help? He banished me to the other room and took out the garbage and wiped down the kitchen. A man who cleans!
And then he gave me a back massage before he left.

I just called a candidate to present a job offer, welcome him to the company and set up a time for him to come in and sign the papers….and the dude asked me to have dinner with him Saturday night…

Thanks so much for all the well wishes on my new place *muah*! I’m moved in, the manual labor was done on Saturday by a couple of my friends, my brother and my boyfriend. Wonderful people. I stood around and pointed. Because I’m useful like that.
It feels odd to have that much space all to myself. I don’t have furniture yet, just my bedroom stuff. So far my bedroom is set up and the kitchen is unpacked and set up too. It doesn’t feel like mine yet though, I feel like I am in someone else’s house and they are going to come home and wonder why I’m there. I haven’t unpacked fully yet, I have bags and boxes everywhere. I am going to turn one bedroom into a giant closet, I can’t wait!
I don’t think the house likes me very much though (yes because it has emotions like people do….) because yesterday I smacked my head on a low hanging light fixture and this morning I fell down the stairs, landed on my tailbone and possibly reinjured my injured back….

The stage production of My Fair Lady will be performing in the city for a few more weeks and I had an opportunity to get a great discount on tickets. I purchased two fantastic seats for my boyfriend and I to see the May 23rd show and requested the CSR to mail them to me.
I’m moving out of this apartment on the 17th and being unsure when they’d arrive I asked that they be sent to my parents address, which they did. Without a name. Just an address.
Which is why, when they arrived on Friday, my mother thought she ought to open this envelope from dancap productions to make sure it wasn’t trash before she threw it out. Of course she naturally assumed they were for her and my dad for Mother’s Day.
I couldn’t say anything other than to tell her anything other than to enjoy herself, hopefully she will.

How’s it going? It’s been some time since we’ve seen each other…oh my, you’ve grown so much taller since we’ve been apart…glad you’ve been keeping well.
So lots of things have been happening recently…Chai’s home, work is super busy and I’m getting lots of really interesting projects, I move into my new house (MINE! ALL MINE! MINE!!!! MINE MINE MINE!!!) in nine days and haven’t packed a gosh darn thing.
And last night I sat on a booster seat.
A booster seat. At a restaurant. I am a 26 year old woman and I needed a booster seat.
The booth was designed for giants apparently because my 5′4 ¾ self was too short to sit on the seat and have anything more than my eyebrows above the table. So I sat in a booster seat.
The sea bass was fabulous though!
That is all.
