TV, the Yankees, Gucci Diamonds and Vacas Yummmm

Ever watch a TV show and wish life could be that simple. Today I got a FB message from Gino my Bahamian friend and the Bahamas was that simple.

 You wake up grab a coffee sit on the beach, do nothing read a book maybe Shape magazine, grab a cold water and do nothing till you change into your gym clothes and run on the beach, you do that until your so tired you go up to your room shower nap, grab dinner a drink, do some gambling, little more drinking and then dancing, and when you get so hot you head out to the water to cool down. Oh man. Of course you don’t have to fly to the Bahamas you can always just sneak away to lets say LBI, which my mom swears I’ve been to and I have no recollection whatsoever but loved it and cant wait to go back.

This week I thought I wouldn’t have a rough week at work, but with cancelled meetings, more emergency motions, problems with divorce filings and very downtrodden clients I can’t help but ask myself if this is why I’m so cynical about everything lately.

I mean I only see people at their worse, I hear constant complaining, I argue about everything lately no settlement comes easy anymore, I don’t know if that just comes with the territory, that maybe its because this is almost 4 years of this. I live for my weekends I totally check out like more than 100%.

Its funny I’m watching Sex in the City and it’s the episode where they want to get Carrie back into “the Game” and Miranda takes her to a Yankee Game and she dates the “New Yankee” (speaking of which I really hate the allstar break-why dont they just do it at the end of the season after the world series ughh it just messes up the whole flow, I mean the if they need rest i rather them go back to their Spring training camps bc you know most of the players are not allstarsand doing nothing or shoping with their celebrity girlfriends! More and more Miranda is so like me, why do I never watch TV some of this stuff is great.  Funny though because the way Carrie thinks about men is how I used to think, oh wow great friends, clothes and gossip about boys amazing.

Anyways for my Bday I’m thinking that ridiculously beautiful new Gucci bag (which I cannot afford) I may settle for a smaller Gucci but I don’t know, a diamond necklace to match my earrings, ( was even thinking new earrings but I don’t think so), an awesome trip in October  or nothing and wait for the payoff in the future. I’m literally trying to bank every penny I own and pay off my loans and buy something like soon, but I feel like something is always blocking me. Maybe its not my time, maybe God has some other plan for me, I don’t know but someone better tell me know or throw me a sign because I’m getting super antsy.

I can’t wait for South Carolina in a few weeks, just beach and sun and running on the beach, going try and get away and detox and just relax and sleep and sun. Even if it’s only for a few days I think it will be a perfect getaway from engagements every weekend until now the middle of September. I can’t even plan a trip to Vegas because I don’t have that many free weekends, and now I am double booked Vegas or Toronto for a wedding, Montreal or Toronto?  

Besides the Canadians invading Yonkers, and they too are overlapping,  they are now invading Times Square Tim Horton’s has taken over Dunkin Donuts in Times Square, I’m not telling Antonia because shell make me drive her down there every morning. Canadanians love their Tim Horton’s I guess he was some famous hockey players and he is to coffee and what Dunkin Donuts is to America, maybe worse but he has way more drive thru which is key, however I must admit he does have a better double chocolate doughnut.

Speaking of Canadians me and mother instant message now at night to communicate, my dads on his new Mac, my sister I text to her I phone and my mom texts and instant messages, it’s all pretty hysterical.

Maybe instead of waiting for my life to clam down I should embrace it, I used to have a handle on it, but I haven’t been able to sneak away lately or have any me days, now my new outlook is work hard now and I keep telling myself that it will pay off later, but how much later s my question isn’t it better if I can get a little reprieve every few months?

Right now i just want to concentrate on dancing at Marias’s bachlorette party in my new heels ;)
