Filing Recipes Will Have to Wait

Every couple of weeks, I feel the need to have a long day at home where I can intersperse relaxing with getting some items crossed off my to-do list -- one of the luxuries of spinsterhood. If I have a second day like this, I can delve into those long-standing items, the ones I wrote down a year or two ago and still haven't gotten to. The problem with not being a hermit is that such days can be hard to come by, and the cupboards grow emptier while the laundry pile grows bigger (for the record, laundry and groceries are on the immediate to-do list, not the year-long one).

Well, it ain't gonna get done this weekend. Because my Jeter-stalking friend, Chris, and I will be heading to NYC for a weekend of being fabulous. Sex and the City without the sex. This will be aided by the fact that I found out this week that I'm getting a sizeable bonus at work! (Really, I never expected anything so huge. Ha --that's what she said!) My salary ain't huge, but this should at least give me an excuse to replenish my barely-hanging-on summer wardrobe, and have a few drinks and sleep indoors while I'm at it.

Hmmm. This might be at odds with my sleeping goal.

I haven't stalked in him a long time, it's been at least two years now...I've officially retired I think. Also I hope people don't think that I'm an actual stalker...I would just hang around the hotel or Newbury St during my lunch break hoping to catch a glimpse of Derek or any other Yankee. I wasn't hiding behind bushes or breaking into the hotel rooms.


NYC is going to be a lot of fun!! There's so much to do and see and drink! Yay!
