As many of you know my Mom came for Christmas this year. I was just not going to spend another Christmas in shorts and a t-shirt in FL when I had NYC at my disposal.
Christmas night we went to a semi-fancy dinner at Rockefeller Plaza. We ate over priced food and watched the skaters rink side. What else could be more NY you ask, well Radio City and the Rocketts of coarse. I surprised my mom with tickets and it was so worth it. I mean of coarse I bitched about it being too short for the obscene amount I paid but really I wouldn't of wanted to spend my first Christmas in NY any other way.
The day after Christmas we spent all day in Macy's and only spent $17. I was so proud of us.
Nothing too much else exciting she mostly want to chill and relax so we spent a lot of time in Jersey.
Monday was back to work after I woke up at 3:30 in the morning to escort my mother to the airport. I swear we have totally had a role reversal more now than ever.
Tuesday I met my friend Brooke from college out for a drink. Shout out to Brooke if she is reading this :) It was a nice chill spot and yes we even hit Happy Hour. 2 beers for $6 that is the type of NY I can handle. And the best thing of all was when the lady behind me for some stupid reason decided to pick up the candle on the table and she set her hair on fire. Yes you heard me right. And that shit STUNK!!! Gotta watch those hair products lady. But seriously is anyone surprised that happened while I was there. I mean it wouldn't be a night out with me without some weird ass crap happening in my presence.
New Years was pretty quiet as well. I just stayed home and watched poor Dick Clark on TV. I mean does anyone else think he needs to retire or is just me. I mean dang. There was suppose to be over a million people in time square and only 1 degree temp after the wind chill. Me and my PJ's were just fine in the warmth of the apartment.
I woke up New Years day and had pulled my back something awful. Still don't know how but it still hurts like hell. Guess I am getting old. So I laid on the couch and watch college football all day. Too bad most of the games were all blow outs.
Its amazing how quick I can sum up 2 weeks huh. I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year and no matter the distance we share I hope each of you knows I think of you all the time and miss you very much. Here's to living fine in 2009!!!!

I have to tell you I am addicted to reading your blog now too, along w/ Erika's. You crack me up. Yes, I agree about Dick Clarke. He does need to retire. I thought about you on New Years Eve and wondered if you were out in that cold weather. Glad your enjoying NYC. Erika said you guys had a great time. Happy New Year!
