The last week or so... I feel like I've been apologizing more for not writing than actually writing. But I have a good reason this last week... I've been insanely busy! The highlights... Thursday was my birthday. And my super amazing boyfriend planned a 24-hour celebration. First he showed up at my apartment at midnight to spend the first minutes of my birthday with me. He had chocolate-covered strawberries (that HE personally made) and a bottle of champagne with him. Then, in the morning he made me an amazing breakfast... lemon souffle french toast with raspberry cream cheese filling and a strawberry preserve topping. Oh yeah, and little carmelized onion, baked ham and goat cheese quiches to die for! Then we spent the day together. I thought he had to work later that night but he surprised me with a little party at Maxie's... Amazing! It was, by far, the best birthday I have ever had. Thanks to all of you that made it so special! Thanks especially to the boyfriend... you rock! Saturday was Ithaca's first pride. It was such a great turnout... bigger than I could have imagined or hoped for. A few glitches at the rally, but overall it was so great and most people stuck around for the entire thing. I am so glad that I got to be a part of it. Sunday, the boyfriend said, 'Pack a bag. We're goin' out of town.' He didn't even have any clothes beyond what he was wearing and his dirtly clothes from the day before. We took a very spontaneous trip to Oqonquit, Maine. What a beautiful little town right on the beach... I took a few pictures... hopefully I can post them soon. And on the way back we took a little pit stop in Worcester, Mass. Didn't get to see much of it... but am looking forward to future visits since the boyfriend is from that area originally. And, I've become Chair of Michelle's campaign in the meantime, too. *deep breath* I know I'm forgetting stuff... just wanted to catch you up on the happenings. I'll try to keep my postings more regular and hope that you all haven't abandoned me in the meantime!! | private feedback | |
