Sunday Rainy Sunday

Sunday was Patti's birthday so Boppy, Derek, Patti, Carrie and I all went to Minado. It was SO delicious. Afterward, we went to TJ Max. After that, Carrie and I went to Scotties and watched a movie. After coming home, we watched True Blood and I passed out. Wow. My life must be sounding really interesting. I was getting all excited that B was coming home on Monday, so I called it a night.

Greenport with Wifey

Friday - Saturday Carrie and I went to Greenport. It has been so hot out lately that we barely spent any time outdoors. We had a delicious dinner and played Apples to Apples. Carrie and I then watched Zach and Miri make a Porno. The next morning we got up to do some yard sailing.I got a big sweet black belt. After taking a nap/watching Bedtime Stories, we went to this festival at the skate park. It was really fun to watch a bunch of kids compete and skate around. They make it look so easy!

Art and Ambien?

Thursday night Carrie and I finally had a chat. It had to be done. We have been a bit on the rocks for most of the summer. I have just been really busy hanging out with an impressive array of people and didn't realize how much she needed/depended on me. I am flattered, I guess. It is nice to be needed. Anyway, I had made plans to go to Sean's and paint/take ambien. I forgot the ambien, so I went over and wanted to paint/collage anyway. He wasn't up for it. He is a fair-weathered artist. He needs to be induced by chemicals in order to feel like being artistic. I ain't down with that, no sir. Anyway, we hung out and watched American Psycho. I don't know what is going on between us, but I think he is cute. I think he might be scared of me cause the last time I slept over I hit him. I don't remember doing so, however. And there has never been a time before when I hit without being asked. I am a little girl trapped in a big girl's body. Anyway, I think I am going to stop hanging out with Sean. We haven't even had sex and its already a little awkward being around him. Oh well, I tried.

Valentines

Last night I went to my dads for dinner and movies. We ate chinese and watched 'Vicky Christina Barcelona and 'Slumdog Millionaire'. They were both really good. I kept seeing places I have been in Barcelona and it really made me want to go back. I keep fantasizing about my upcoming travels, putting all my eggs in one basket, I suppose.

Today we went to Martha Clara vineyard and tasted some wines. Then we saw some donkeys, llamas and alpacas! I decided I want to donkey for christmas.

I gotta say (and not only because I know you're reading this) that I am pretty lucky to have such awesome parents/step parent(s). I have met a lot of families in my day, and have seen a lot of different parent/child dynamics. I gotta say that I think I am the luckiest. Yes, it was hard growing up and being a badass (or thinking that I was a badass) but now that I see eye to eye with my parents I am thankful that they are as cool as they are and that we can learn and grow from each other.

So yeah, I didn't have a valentine this year. But maybe this valentines day was more than lust and dumb cards and more about drinking wine and spending time with family.
