After the world's most dramatic vacation (I blame PMS for my insanity) I'm back in the city. I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this as I kinda just wanted to go somewhere and forget about life period.
Turns out being back is not so bad. When I arrived at work everyone was actually happy to see me. It's a nice feeling. And despite having a shit load of work, I'm not hating work at all.
And the icing on the cake: Saks is having a huge sale. I went and bought some lip balm, various face creams (I'm such a sucker for that junk) and (drum roll) Marc Jacobs sunglasses.
Basically I'm going to use work and retail therapy to drown my sorrows. As of day one it's working.

Convo with lilhoMe: I am not dramatic.
Sarah: OMG you are so dramatic.
Me: Um. No.
Sarah: You take it to the next level. You have drama and then you instill fear into the general public.
Me: Oh. I can't argue that.
Sarah: OMG you are so dramatic.
Me: Um. No.
Sarah: You take it to the next level. You have drama and then you instill fear into the general public.

Easter Basket '09Me: So am I getting a Easter Basket?
Mom: No Jessica you're not. What would I even put in one for you?
Me: A baby chicken, jelly beans, candy, Easter surprises.
Mom: I don't even know what a Easter surprise is.
Me: Buuuuut my heart wants one.
Mom: Fine. Go take a shower we're going to the store.
Moral of the story: If you say your heart wants it to your Mom you get what you want.
Mom: No Jessica you're not. What would I even put in one for you?

Worst Vaca EvaMy strep throat is in full force. My neck actually hurts from my tonsils being so swollen.
I feel bad because my mom was so excited to have me here.
Honestly if I was well enough I'd just get on a plane and go back to NYC and hit the reset button.

We all say and do things in the heat of the moment we later regret. I have blogged about people and things I should not have. These days I don't blog about certain things or people because its easier. But you didn't do anything wrong and you need to know that. You we're able to see past bad things in that person I'm sure and thing they had said or done to you we're forgiven. This person should know you were venting and you had been hurt and you shouldn't feel guilty. I love you and if you were hurt NY me and blogged about it I would be embarrassed not angry with you. Maybe a bit angry but I would get over it because you are worth knowing!

Conversations with Momma Hore: the volcano that erupted in Alaska
Momma: He said it looked like snow in NYC.
Me: Ew, that's so rude to diss NYC like that. You know when it snows here it's actually white until it hits the ground. (said with attitude)
Momma: Jessica he's from NYC. When you're from New York you can say anything you want and it's not rude.
Me: Oh. Yeah. Actually thats right.

Don't you just hate it when 'rents use their mortality to guilt you into something?
I wonder if I can use the same tactic to convince my boss to buy me lunch today.......

Mom did mention that I'm not allowed to visit the baby non-stop and that I still have a mother and she is older and she'll die before the baby so I have less time to see her.

Yay! I'm glad you're back, too.
And I can't think of a better welcome wagon than wine and snacks with your favorite bitches on a private deck overlooking Manhattan.
