Before coming to Buffalo, I had never heard of Tim Hortons. When I got here and saw one after another after another, I realized how big they really are. And of course, eventually ended up going there for some coffee. The first time (e:fellyconnelly) and I went, we both got coffees and I think some breakfast sandwiches. All I remember was the coffee being eternally hot and lacking in sugar. I like a lot of sugar in my coffee, perhaps an unhuman amount, but when I asked Felly to get me some extra, she was shot a dirty look by an employee. The sandwiches were amazing, but I was sad because without coffee, I am nothing.
Yesterday we went again. My worst Tim Ho's experience yet. First of all, we ordered two iced coffees and a sandwich to split. I said, as usualy, cream and sugar in my coffee. I should have asked for extra, but even then it wouldn't be enough. Then, they didn't have whole wheat bread for our sandwich. And then, I went to drink my drink, and the shitty top allowed the contents to be spilled down the front of my shirt. Grrrr. So my complaint really is, why can't I make my own godam coffee? And how hard is it to create a coffee cup that works? And finally, white bread tastes like eating paper.

we went to that bar last night on allen st...niechetzzeeeessss or whatever. it was cute. i didn't realize how close allen really is, not a bad drunken walk home if i do say so myself. AND Just Pizza is right on the way and ain't nuttin better dan pizza after a few beers. although i do miss my favorite pizza place in new paltz with their super large peices with super think crust an extra liquidy fat on top. mmmmm.
today we are off to babysit. i did offer our services so i am not upset by this...and i like the kids so it won't be that bad. maybe we will go to the park...they have a dog...i can take "my" dog and "my" daughter to the park and pretend i am a....hehe. im weird. i know.

i love you (e:fellyconnelly)

Since (e:fellyconnelly) and I moved to Buffalo we have acquired the habit of drinking beer every night. Granted it is usually like 2 or 3 beers split between us, never enough to get drunk, but enough so that we are going through a twelve pack every 4 to 5 days. This is new for me. I don't drink. Let alone drink beer. I am a wine girl at best, rum and pepsi if I am feeling frisky and want to dance. But beer? Yuck. But you see, Blue Moon tastes light, refreshing, and doesn't have that nasty beer feeling that I find accompanies typical beers. Either way, I am putting a stop to this. Beer is for weekends. Or at least, not every night. Ha! See, there it is already. This is how habits start and I refuse to become an alcoholic because I am bored.


One more thing. My entries have not been showing up in the recent entry column. They are there for a little while and then they disappear. Does anyone else have this problem or I am secretly being shunned from this community? Juuust Kidding.

So, Felly and I come from a (for the most part) liberal town where we felt comfortable holding hands in public and being in public in general. Today we are going for a walk: to the bank to get quarters and to the post office for stamps. Felly says she is still not 100% comfortable holding hands/showing PDA's because we don't really know what we are dealing with here. Now, I know this is the home of Ani Difranco and all, but for all you gay folks out there, what is your opinion on the subject? I, to a certain extent, have "I look like a straight girl" priveleges that give me perhaps a false sense of security, but when my girlfriend and I are together only a small few would mistake us two straight girls out on the town.

Also, I have never lived in a city before, so I am only assuming, but I am sure it all depends on where you go, when you go, and all that jazz. And there are always the few that ruin it for the group.

Anyways, if anyone sees us on our walk, feel free to honk, wave, and yell obnoxious things from your cars.

I am seeing now that if I don't post I have to deal with the annoying task of figuring out where the last post was that I read because it is not neatly highlighted in orange. Is this a trick to keep everyone posting?

I finally beat (e:fellyconnelly) at Scrabble last night, by ten points no less. Granted she was winning most of the way through and I cheated and looked up a word, "quag" in the dictionary, but its all irrelevant in the long run. I won and it made me a happy lady.

I've been waiting pateintly for my $4,000 dollars to show up in my bank account, but no dice yet. I am nervous about it though because we have been waiting to get this money so we can do things like get new tires for Felly's car and get my oil changed, but this is also money I need to by books for school and put gas gas in my car for the next 4 months. I am not good at budgeting and it has been awhile since I've had that much money in one place. However, Felly should be working soon and that will relieve some of this financial stress.

My cats are sleeping soundly and my girlfriend is curled up with her favorite book and I am type type typing away...it is usually the other way around. 5 Days till orientation.
