Girl Finding Her Way

Babblings, rants and the general nonsense of a 20-something newly admitted attorney trying to find her way

Marathon Monday Eve… April 20, 2008

1. Today we signed the lease! Wahoo! I feel a lot more comfortable having it all settled. AND the landlord was there with her “handy-man” (who, I believe, is very “handy” for her in other ways as well, from the sense of things…). We went through the entire apartment and spoke about the things that need to be done in the next week. They both say it will all get done in time! Yay!! I brought over more stuff as well. SLOWLY the Plymouth apartment is starting to empty out. I’m feeling pretty good about this move…

 

2. Marathon Monday is tomorrow!!! This is a great day in the city of Boston and I get to be there for the first time ever!! The plan is to meet up with Fake Big Sis on our street and then to go to a place called Vox Populi. Apparently it is on Boylston Street where the finish line is! So cool!! Well, it better be… I mean, it was $40/ticket for the cover charge… We are planning on being there at 10:30 a.m. I have no idea what it’s going to be like but I’m super excited!! :-D

 

3. Unofficial and I have tentative plans for tomorrow night. He better come through. I’m missing his cute face and snuggly-ness. ;-)

 

Grey’s, Dad, Fate?, Some More Unofficial April 4, 2008

1. Grey’s Anatomy starts back up on April 24th. I absolutely cannot wait!

 

2. The anniversary of my dad’s death is next Tuesday. It will be 19 years. 19 years!! I have not visited his grave since I was a little girl. My mother never wanted to bring us. I will go, for the first time in well over 15 years, this Tuesday. It is important that I finally do this and be the daughter I feel like I should have been all this time to him. For some reason, I think it might bring some closure in my adult life that I have not felt.

 

3. Do you believe that everything happens for a reason? I sometimes wonder what my life would be like now if my dad had not died when I was little. At times I wonder the same about other things that have or have not occurred. It’s silly, pointless and really quite irrelevant. I am intelligent enough to know that wondering cannot change anything. But… much like my other pointless habits (umm… all my 100 tv shows, TMZ… I could go on) I find myself thinking about it once in a while.

 

4. I sent Unofficial an email today apologizing for my little snarky remarks. When I saw him the other night/morning, I did my usual thing… I made off the cuff snarky comments at random points. I did not intend to be hurtful or inappropriate or confrontational. I have a habit of using sarcasm to deal with things. Very rarely is this a good way to deal with anything. So, I wrote an email apologizing to him because I know that the comments caught him off guard. He was his usual understanding and patient self with me. His response was that I am allowed to deal with the situation as I see fit and that he was in no way upset or offended. I like him…

 

5. The Boston Marathon is in less than 2 weeks. This will be the first time in my life that I’m in the Boston area for the race. Unofficial knows I want to see the race and be in the city for the day… I’m hoping he remembers this and makes plans with me for it. It’s just a great day in the city usually and I think it’s the type of day he and I could really use together!! :-)
