Ithaca has given me allergies. OR I still have a sinus infection. Either way, I wake up feeling like shit.
Sorry Stace - I wound up going out for a late bite to eat and then doing some shopping at the mall.
Mother's Day coming up. Last night I packed up my gifts for my aunt and grandma, dan's mom and grandma.
I found a million things I would have bought for my mother. I hate Hate HATE this.
Anyway, I want to play hookie today.

What's New
A certain lawyer friend just got a hot new job...mum's the word still, but we can offer a little teaser.
My new address is:
24-61 Crescent Street
Astoria, NY 11102
My phone numbers will probably stay the same.
For those I told about Nancy Grace (on CNN)...the date has changed from Monday to Thursday night at 8:00-9:00 p.m. Please, please watch, set your DVR's, support. Cheers.

And So
We watched Season 5 of 24 in a record five days. It's a fascinating show, but we've gotten good at predicting Jack's Bauer's next moves.
Saturday Marshy celebrated his 10th birthday. He went to the park, sniffed as many trees as he wanted to and had a nice spare rib (of course he had diahrea on Sunday).
I missed seeing TV on the Radio on Friday as I got stuck coordinating four media interviews. I was annoyed, but what can you do? By the time I made it to the Chapter House, I was so on edge, I couldn't stop looking at my PDA. Dan was upset with me because he says I've been a real snot lately. He's right.
So we made up over some rolls and sashimi at Kyushu. Then hit TJ Maxx where I bought him a new golf bag for his birthday coming up in a few.
Overall the weekend was pretty sweet. Some minor client relations on Saturday, but no work on Sunday! Hoofuckingray.
Signing off.

What Luck?
My horoscope was a bunch of bullshit.
Turns out they have rented our current apartment for July 15. (I think they are lying. New managment company started like two months ago and already this place is going down the tubes.) Right now we're figuring out where to house our dogs for the 2 weeks while we are away, and where to stay once we return. We're leaning towards splitting The Boys as Marshy is a lot of work. (Also I don't think a kennel will accept him due to his disability.) Then when we return, we'll either stay at Dan's parents for two weeks or at a hotel. (I'm pushing for the hotel.) It comes as no surprise that all of this makes me highly uncomfortable and that I'd rather find a new apartment, but Dan won't hear of it. I believe he's already found storage for our stuff while in Argentina and movers for July 31.
I don't work well when things are up in the air - as most of you know. I've worked too damn hard to have any glitches in the way I run my business. And most of you know how much work Marshy is. I think I'll be able to have my aunt take care of him.
Anyway, got to get back to work as I'm out this afternoon. TV on the Radio is coming to Cornell U today for Slope Day, and Dan got me some tix. Cool, yo.

Some Changes
I suppose I've missed my blog, but the truth is I haven't really come up for air in the past six weeks. Business has been really good. Fingers crossed.
As many of you know, the plan was to move mid-June, settle into an Astoria apartment, and venture off to Puerto Rico and Argentina for two weeks, returning around July 15.
Today, my horoscope reads, "If you attempt to reapproach a situation that you'd thought was truly past hope, you could be pleasantly surprised. Apparently there's a reason people say "you never know."
Last night Dan called Fran - the woman who owns the house in Astoria where we were planning to take an apartment before the Cornell U. call came. Turns out her current tenant must return to Morocco and the apartment will become free at the end of July. Essentially, we just scored a good-size two bedroom with a parking space near the subway, the Triboro, the Beer Garden, the Grand Central Parkway and Neptune Diner, by just making one phone call. It's a little closer to the tracks than I'd like, but I can totally deal.
The thing is that we won't be settled in until August 1 so we'll stay hear in Ithaca for a little while longer. Dan starts work on July 23 and has training for two weeks in Orlando. I will have to handle the move on my own.
Even though I am eager to return to all of you, I feel good about all of this. I feel as if every once in a while I get a nice bit of luck.
