Hmm... let's see if I can recount some of the events of the past week...

Justin and I went out Friday night. Was supposed to see one of my old friends who was celebrating her b-day at a bar/restaurant. We never did end up seeing her, but we did have a couple drinks and talked. I got twisted from two martinis. I was feelin' it before I even finished the second. Me and Justin then went to IHOP to feed our bellies before goin' home. We hadn't intended on staying out too late cuz we both had to work in the morning. I went to work Saturday morning still drunk.

That evening, went to Friday's with Tara to meet with some friends for someone's birthday. I usually like that restaurant, but it wasn't a good night. The service was subpar and we were there too long waitin' on stuff. Afterwards, Tara and I caught a showing of "Elf." It was alright. It had it's funny moments, but I wouldn't rush to go out and see it. There was a part of the movie where we were both laughing so hard that we couldn't stop or breathe. But we weren't sure how much of it were we laughing at the movie or at each other. Heh. :-P

Then on Sunday, Tara and I again went to the movies. This time we saw "Love Actually." I liked it. Cute film. I would recommend it before "Elf."

We were supposed to have gone to karaoke that night, but change of plans. Justin and called Tara up asking if she wanted to shoot pool and I ended up going, along with another friend. We were there several hours and got home at midnight.

Then it turned out my mom came back home from her vacation a lot earlier than expected. A week earlier, to be exact. She came home with no warning cuz, as it turns out, she got fed up with her daughter and grandkids. She just couldn't take it anymore and decided the very day of to change her return flight. So when my mom arrived at the airport, neither my sis or I was available to receive her car. I had gotten on the internet not long after I got back from the pool hall and so was tying up the line. And then my sis had already gone to bed and turned off her cell. Long story short, my mom ended up calling one of her friends and staying the night there.

On Tuesday, Justin, Tara, and another friend, and I went to Borders to get our read on. Justin was reading some book on becoming a manager, Tara "Crime & Punishment", and I "The Stranger." It was nice and we'll have to go again. And that very morning I finally went and got me a cell phone. Haven't had one of those in a minute and I didn't really like having one of my friends call me via Tara's or Justin's phone.

And Thursday night Tara, Taneka, and I went to a birthday bash sponsored by Tara's company. We all had some drinks and got intoxicated. I went to work with a hangover, ugh. It didn't last the entire workday, but it wasn't too pleasant. But tell me why - this morning my mom pages me (you know the page button on telephones) so that I would let my dog out. I wake up and feel that I'm laying on something. It's my purse. Turns out I went to bed fully clothed in my dress and tights with purse, jacket, contacts and all. I was asleep under my covers just as I had come home except I did have the sense to take off my boots. :-P

Then tonight (Friday night), I went to the movies with a co-worker. It's obvious he's interested, but I'm not. I wonder if I should have declined? Or maybe have just made sure to make clear that I am not interested in him in "that way." Anyways, we went to see "Commander and Master." It wasn't all that. Not a real attention grabber for me and the ending was like "Wha?" to me.

Okay... I think I should attempt sleep soon. Gotta work in the AM, as well as stop by the store beforehand since they're having a potlock thingamajig tomorrow.
