Wednesday AND Thursday actually ...

Today might have topped the charts, set a new personal record, when it comes to walking around town. I almost hit the 7 mile mark! The hike to the post office was the worst. I take that back, the hike from the post office was the worst. Not only did I have three packages to tote home (yes mother yours finally came - yay!), but one was too large to fit into my back pack so I had to carry it on my hip while I preceded to walk another 5 miles or so. Hooray for the exercise though, that is for sure ! Between living next to Leonard's (the Polynesian bakery), and working at Outback, every burnt calorie is appreciated.

So, as we have discussed Black Betty has gone on to a better place, and therefore I am in the market for a new moped. I stopped into a shop today to see about test driving a particular moped that was just dropped off. Right before I am about to hand over my money and ride off to work, the owner of the shop decides to test drive it one last time. THANK GOD HE DID! Just as he pulled onto the sidewalk in front of his store, and just as the words "it rides like a champion" were coming out of his mouth, low and behold, the tire blows out! I must have a curse . An "all-mopeds-near-me-turn-to-crap" curse. I'm not sure what I did to deserve such a curse, but I am sooooo thankful that tire blew out before I bought it! Can you imagine? I would have had a meltdown. Plain and simple.

On another note, one of my roommates and I have decided to put in our 30 day notice at our current apartment. Or in my case, my current ex-laundy room. So any help in finding a new place of residence would be much appreciated.

And on one last note, I am very much looking forward to this weekend. 1) I have an HR meeting with my new job at a yoga/running apparel store, after which, my employee discount kicks in. 2) It is "First Friday" in Chinatown, which I have yet to experience, but have heard great things. 3) I get to go to the farmer's market on Saturday morning. And 4) A few of my girl friends and I are going to the North Shore on Saturday for my friend Lolo's boyfriend's reggae band's album release party (that was a mouthful). They are called Freedom's Progress, and are very talented. Woo hoo for the weekend!

The band!

With all this excitement it seems I have forgotten to shave both my legs when I was in the shower... Oops. One is better than none I suppose ... ?
