Billy Shakespeare

Everybody...go see Shakespeare in the Park! Henry IV is the first half of summer, followed by another play in late July thru August.

Spend some time on the strip, then bring a blanket, some wine, some food, and sit back and enjoy some great theater. Admire the Rose Garden while you're at it, of course. Support the arts! Come out and enjoy a night at the park! It should be grrrrrrrreat. Hope to see y'all there.

fun on your back

Yesterday I bought a backpack. Sorta random, since it's the middle of summer. But I had a nice coupon through my lovely Student Advantage card for an online purchase (http://www.ebags.com). I haven't owned a backpack since my sophomore year of high school. I miss it! Yay backpacks. :0)

elmwood strippers?

I don't know what all the fuss is about, my userpic is clearly me and my handsome, prince boyfriend.

j/k. I agree, post your own pic. Mike you have your own pic in a way. An artist's rendering. I used to have mine up but not too many others really did, making me feel shallow and freakish. Ok well maybe not that bad. But I took it down, and now I better rethink that move based on demands of my fellow elmwood strip...pers.

Elmwood strippers? Hmm I don't think I like that. I wonder how long until we have a name for ourselves...or if we ever will. People who collect in large numbers online often have, err, clever names...Grobanites (Josh Groban fans), Baleheads (Christian Bale fans), X-Philes (duh)...and I only know these courtesy of my sister. I SWEAR!

Anyway..names are a little cheesy. Will we eventually have one? Should we? Hmmm...

a drive-by bannering

Got a little sneak peek of the banner as I drove down Elmwood home from work yesterday...

Lookin good. I tried taking a picture on my handy little phone...then the light turned green and I ended up with a blurry picture of some cars and trees. Not really the result I was hoping for.

Lake George...I believe I will be somewhere near there this weekend.

p.s. Right now my life is work > social life. I don't think I'm taking too well to it...

Office Space

JessBob I can relate your qualms (is that how you spell it?) with the working world. I find myself at work given a large amount of time to do tasks that actually take me about a quarter of the time given, so I end up sitting around checking my mail or elmwoodstrip obsessively. (And yes, I do feel guilty since this isn't like reading the newspaper and I'm being paid for doing erroneous things.) My computer isn't exactly in the middle of the room, but everytime I hear someone coming I frantically minimize or close the window. I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up starting this very entry over like four times. Sometimes if I've truly exhausted the possibilities of the Internet, I resort to Minesweeper or Spider Solitaire. But closing a game of Minesweeper when you might almost have won is a terribly disappointing feeling.

Well I really hope someone from the office discovers this entry, hahaha...not!

Have a nice day...or should I say it's been a pleasure...??

big pimpin

I would also like to take this opportunity to welcome Jesse to estrip. It's about time. Now we have a little "DC connection" in the house. Wish I could have seen you more before you left. SOMEONE told me you weren't leaving until NEXT monday. Well the family has been known to head down to that political neck of the woods so maybe I will see you.

In other news...bacon is scrumptious.

Perky perks

I am sitting around anticipating a trip to Perkins. woooo! Why is Perkins so great? Glad to go out with everyone. I feel as though it has been forever since I have seen everyone. I guess that is how it is in the working world.

Excited for this weekend.

My allergies are so annoying.

Peeeennsylvania, Peeennsylvania

Yes I just got back from PA for some good old family and priest time. That sounds strange but I'm too lazy to elaborate.

So, this summer has been fairly relaxing... I started work, well ok one day. My second is tomorrow. Haven't seen the gang much but getting up early will do that I suppose. There will be many good times for all to come, so I am not worried. Can't wait for this weekend...the annual parade partay...oh yeah, we know how to kick it. P-A-R-T-Y...fiesta..yesss. And someone with a round face is coming from Albany. :0) Soo it should be fun. As long as we get the house clean and my dad doesn't kill us all in the process.

I feel that I write about myself too much. This isn't really like livejournal yet I treat it like one a bit? I guess there's no guidelines. I was thinking the other day how funny it is that it really is so easy to get into bars even if you aren't 21. I have many underage friends that have had many bar and club experiences. Why do I think that's funny? Who knows? I suppose turning 21 isn't that exciting for some then. Of course then you get to go BUY alcohol at a store, and that is fun.

All right I'm tired. Isn't it wierd how travelling can be so tiring? I mean all you do is like sit down for a long period of time. Goodnight folks.

the boys of summer

yay, I second Mike's love of summer. Although I was a senior citizen friend and in my pajams even before 10 o'clock...quarter to, maybe? And now I'm continuing that sexy look, sporting a hot sundress that is several sizes too big with wet hair and no undies. Ooooh, what an image.

Summer is a super grrrrreat thing, and tomorrow I get to start work and have to start being a senior citizen like every day. Woo...weekends will be better than ever.

Anyone want some ice cream later...I think I could go for some...what a shock.
