CA visits Boston!
minnie, shelley, and cynthia arrive today!
9 days till i go to CA!
99 days till cindy comes to boston!
145 days until we go to hawaii!
yay for countdowns!
i'm really excited to hang out with the CA peeps (especially cynthia who i haven't seen since HIGH SCHOOL). i'm looking forward to their visit so much that i'm gonna post our schedule. okay, so we don't have much planned but i'm using this blog to record all our happenings!
The highlights so far..
TUES: Minnie arrived at 5:45am. We picked her up at the airport and then I headed to work, which turned out to be a good day (maybe cause no one peed on me)! We went to pick up Cynthia and Anthony right after and had dinner at Panera (where else!?). Then we wandered Fenway Park and saw BU before picking up Shelley in Providence. We all passed out around 2am. My apartment was quite cozy having 4 additional people.. I feel bad for Anthony who curled up in my papasan, only to have several hilarious (but probably not to him) incidents throughout the night and a sore back in the morning. =/
WED: Dunkin donuts for breakfast. Cynthia and Anthony amazed at $20 lottery tickets. Sent them off to Sam Adams brewery. Lunch with Minnie, walked down Boylston for a swim suit. Met up with the 3 at Boston Commons and found that we had a new friend (she was on the brewery tour too but was a lone tourist). Walked the freedom trail (took forever!). Dinner at the Oyster House. Came back to the apt to watch the Office episodes. Awesome.
THURS: I woke up and Shelley has left to NY. Minnie and I went to the dining hall to stock up! You know it! Then went to Andy's to bake bake bake. Took a LOT longer than we thought it would.. until dinner time. Restaurant week at Summer Shack.. not bad not bad. Then back to Andy's to watch Naruto and then passed out.
FRI: Woke up late! AH! Minnie and I went to the Museum of Science. I definitely want to go back there again!! But don't watch the 3D bug show. It's awful. The story is terrible.. it made a little girl cry! Anyway, stayed there till dinner and met up with Cynthia and Anthony at Legals Seafood. Not bad I guess.. Went back to the apt to chill. Good talks with the girls!
SAT: Breakfast at BK. Shopped at Wrentham. Sent Shelley to the airport. Unity Dinner! Nerts at JFei's!
SUN: Minnie said bye bye.. =(
You can see as the days pass, my blurb for each one gets shorter and shorter. Oh well.. I still had a great time! I can't wait for another visit (already)!

trying to post more
along with lists, i REALLY like countdowns.
2 more days until minnie, shelley, and cynthia comes to boston!
11 days till i go to CA!
101 days till cindy comes to boston!
147 days until we go to hawaii!
wow, i'm looking forward to many things.. God-willing!
today was uh.. interesting. i walk out of my apartment and there on the intersection of brookline & fenway was a mini flood (the water main was broken). the water was coming up to the fireman's hips! so instead of the 6 minute walk to work, i went ALL the way around emmanuel. it took me 12 minutes! =P i'm spoiled. but seriously, i should have just swam to work.
a baby also peed all over me today. i should have seen it coming. his diaper wasn't on all the way. he was exposed to cold air and i had just wiped his wee wee (stimulation). *sigh* i felt so gross. good thing it didn't get above my elbows or i don't know how i would have survived the rest of work knowing i couldn't wash off the urine until i got home. hm.. maybe it was bound to happen? they do say you're not really a pediatric/infant nurse until you've been peed/pooped/barfed on..

jetblue.. once so pure, so gentle, so kind.. what happened? it started about a year ago when i was told i would receive 2 vouchers for 1) my flight was delayed for 1+ hour/s and 2) they misplaced my luggage. i thought cool, money off my flights! i got both voucher #s and codes, but little did i know that neither of them would work! *sigh* i called the jetblue peeps and they told me that one was invalid and the other one was already expired. wait.. what? invalid? but my flight was over an hour late! apparently they didn't actually count my late flight. oh.. those flight attendants.. so deceivingly nice! and for my expired voucher.. the rule is after a year, the voucher is expired. however it had only been 2 months! whoever the lady was that put in my information, "accidentally" pressed the wrong year and they had "no way to change it." UH HUH.
and so my story continues to yesterday. i got another voucher (why do i always get fooled) because my last flight had to make an additional landing in denver. i thought, this voucher HAS to be legit because i received it as an e-mail with all the legit looking stuff. so the past few months i've been trying to book several different flights with it, only to give up and change my plans. then yesterday came along and i was so determined to use this voucher because i had 4 flights to book. so everything is going well. i found the first flight that i wanted and i was able to apply the voucher and everything.. then RIGHT when i press submit, the website says there's some internal error! please try again. oh nuh UH. i try it several more times and they all say the same thing and then i wonder.. if i take the voucher off, will it go through? i can just use the voucher on the next flight.. and GUESS WHAT! it worked! the payment was processed in like 2 seconds! oohh gggrrrrrrr... that jetblue. so i call the jetblue peeps again and ask them specifically about this voucher. she said it was valid, didn't know why it wasn't working but would happily book my flight over the phone. ah HA! trying to trick me again.. because not only is there a $15 fee for booking a flight over the phone, she tried to get me to pay for the expensive flights when i told her to give me the cheapest (okay yes, i was going along with her games but rejected her at the end)!
you know there's something about not wanting to get in trouble that drives people to do things. maybe it's just me but right when my phone call ended with the jetblue lady, i tried the voucher one more time. it worked. they must have known that i was getting angry and was going to search through southwest!!
hm.. now that i look back at what i just wrote, i have no idea why i decided to tell you about my experiences with jetblue. but i do want to let you know that i love ice cream bars. they are so yummy. i wish i could have one now if i wasn't sick..
the other day my mom told me that my 11 year old sister made her a glass of hot water and tucked her into bed. hehe so cute.
