My (belated) Birthday with Bryon

Last night I went with Bryon to Bubba Gump for dinner and then we went to see The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. We had a GREAT time at Bubba Gump, put the two of us together with other crazy folks and well, we have a blast. We messed with all the waiters and joined in the BDay song for some other chick.

We got to the theater and they asked if we wanted to possibly participate. Bryon said no, I said yes. They took my info, but didn't use me. Oh what they missed! LOL The play was just AMAZING and funny and whitty and intelligent and totally worth seeing. I laughed so hard my back was hurting and I was crying. It was totally an awesome night for the two of us and we've made plans to spend more time together this winter, since he will be in town.

OT: heard yesterday that Bernadette Peters husband died in a helicopter crash. It was so weird because I had seen her on the street, with him, outside their apartment. Kind of a cool celebrity sighting and then to hear he died, just weird feelings. I was talking to a friend and she was upset and then said, you know, I just have to stop that. I don't get upset when Joe Blow dies, so why do I give this celebrity, whom I don't know, more sympathy? I saw were she was coming from, but a big part of me disagrees with her. I know we should have sympathy for all, and I think I do for the most part, but a celebrity is someone I invite into my life by watching their movies, watching TV shows, reading about them and all kinds of things. In an essecence, I do know them more than Joe Blow. I don't think it's wrong, because I've made them a part of my life. I don't know everyone on my floor all that well, but if one of their family members were to die, I would feel it a lot more than I would if someone from a different building died. It's all in the contact you have with people, you know?

Misc...

Thursday, 9/22/05, Stephanie Johnson was supposed to come into town for the weekend. Her flight was cancelled so she came in Friday morning. After work on Friday we went to Time Square and ate at Bubba Gump, had a great dinner. Went to the movies next and saw Corpse Bride, DUMB movie! I was not impressed at all. Saturday we had lunch at TGIFridays and then went to Rockefeller Center, messed around there for a bit. Went home and watched old R&M stuff then went to Wave's for dinner. Stephanie did see her first Drag Queen on Saturday which was funny. We also went to K-Mart and then headed home.

Sunday was church and I did a tug of war for the homecoming Sunday. It was fun and our team won! They also wanted to film us doing other stuff so we decided to jump rope. Well, I was the only one doing it and this girl yells in front of everyone that I should have worn a sports bra! I was so mad. I'm like, why, why would anyone feel the need to say something like that in front of other people and men, no less! RUDE! That's all it was. Never really cared for her before, now, can't stand her!

We, Teresa, Stephanie and I, went to Applebee's for lunch and then Stephanie left to go home. I chilled out for a bit and then met up with Daniel and Billy and we went to the Bronx to see Daniel's family. His mom is in from Mexico. I would love to be able to talk to her, but she speaks no English, but Daniel translates for us. It's very sweet.

Teresa and I walked Sunday night and then I crashed. I was so tired and I'm not even really sure why.
