Back to the gym

I gave up looking for a gym membership on craigslist.org. The girl who was selling her membership lied to me and basically had a membership in Hoboken, but only told me when I called her back. She also told me that I couldn’t transfer the account to a NY location. How lame is that right? Today, I after work I went to the gym to ask about memberships. As usual, I went on the tour of the premises. The gym guy was pretty cute, and I decided I might as well join because he already started to fill out the paperwork. Who actually says no after all that trouble? I certainly don’t want to come back and go on the tour again! The good news is that now I can go work out after work. I’ll be fit again!:-P The highlight of the tour? There are personal TVs on each cardio machine!! What a life. )

My roomies and I watched “Beyond Borders” and it was a really depressing. After watching that movie I was so depressed because I didn’t see why I should be living when all these other people are suffering and living such dangerous and sad lives. Tonight we watched “A Lot Like Love“. It was just the movie we needed to pick up our spirits.

Anyhow, this week has been pretty good at work. No disasters (besides the Monday thing). I’m glad it’s almost the weekend. D Have fun guys!

Is this possible?

I had a pretty decent weekend. I overloaded with seafood. I never realized how much I’d miss shrimp and fish. I’m not a big seafood eater, but after having two meals where every course had some kind of seafood, I think I should be set for until the end of September. ) I was in Boston this weekend and my cousin, Jane was kind enough to let my sisters and I stay at her lovely house. We didn’t do much, but I definitely enjoyed their TiVo. She also introduced me to the dangerous world of Veronica Mars. It seems like a good show, so maybe I can try to catch up with the rest of the season.

Today, there was a small IT emergency, but it was okay. I dealt with it pretty well I thought. I met with my boss and he informed me that I would be getting a raise since I’ve been doing such a great job! I’ve been dying for a raise. Ever since I moved into the city, money has been scarce. So many bills and rent! Now I think I can probably join a gym and stop being so lazy and inactive. This will be good! I’ve missed the gym so much. )

In other news, I’m about to head off to a Yankees game. Let’s hope Jaret Wright doesn’t have a game like Randy Johnson. shock

My weekend in summary

Things I did this weekend:

  1. Watched an entire Yankees game where Jeter and Bernie homered! I loved when the screen said “Bern baby bern!” Oh yes, and they won!!
  2. Had brunch with the family at Eleven Madison Park. I enjoyed my chocolate souffle dessert very much.
  3. Had my first Whole Foods pizza. It was pretty tasty!
  4. Spent a night dancing with 320598 people.
  5. Got dragged into playing softball by my roommates. It wasn’t too bad, but catching was hard!
  6. Melted everytime I set foot outside.

So I really think stores leave their doors open in order to attract customers. As soon as an innocent potential customer walks past the doors and feels the cool air, he or she will be sucked into the store and make a purchase. Oh yes, I just want to say that Macy*s at Herald Square is so crowded on the weekend. I waited 10 minutes to use the bathroom and it was disgusting. I don’t plan on using the bathroom there ever again. mad

So how were your weekends?
