me re: my life

For Business or Pleasure?

It's been a busy three weeks:

Business

• I sold most of my furniture on Craigslist.
• I threw out a small country's worth of junk.
• I sold some possessions on eBay ($650!)
• I gave away all sorts of junk to Goodwill, Salvation Army, and a tag sale.
• I packed up a third of my remaining belongings and sent them away to long term storage for a year.
• I packed up the rest of my stuff and moved it to a storage unit in Manhattan, save for the three suitcases and a couple boxes that I have here in my teeeensy temporary apartment.

Pleasure

• I danced all night with my vet school peeps after graduation.
• I made jello shots in 35cc syringes with Paul.
  
• We partied at the end of the world party.
  
• I went to Newport with Paul.
• We flew a kite at Brenton Point.
• We walked along the cliff walk and ogled at the mansions.
• We ate yummy food and tasty gelato.
• We sipped wine at Newport Vineyards and learned about grapes and bottling machines.
• We let BOFA take us to the Isabella Stewart Gardener Museum.
• We ate the "World's Best Kettle Corn"
• We canoed on the Charles River.
• I went to London and spent two days touristing around the city on foot and two days chilling with my London friends.
• I drank cup after cup of tea.
• I laughed endlessly at stories of Turner's British mishaps.
• We brunched at a pub in the glorious sunshine for hours.
• We saw Zero 7 live in concert.
• We picnicked in Hampstead Heath.
• We drank pitchers of Pimms.
• I came back to Shrewsbury.
• I had a 50 cent latte from the local coffee shop with the girls.
• I spent evenings with Paul.
• We drank Sauvignon Blanc and ate artichokes.
• We ate Shelley's ice cream and hunted for cows.
• We finally went to the Enormous Room.

So yeah. That's why there weren't any new posts. I hope you can understand. My first day of work is Tuesday. I quite honestly have no idea what's in store for me. Stay tuned.
