Well Hello There, Mr. Mosquito...

Dear Boriquen Mosquitoes,

I hate you with a fiery passion. I don't understand why you want to suck the sweet life out of me...74 times. In about 3 days. I hope you die.

Love,
Me

Ok so....

i went to Puerto Rico for 4 days. I got eaten by mosquitoes. I went for my best friend's son's baptism, and was made a Godmother...yay! He's so cute. I saw my grandpa, and C met my grandpa, and it was totally un-noteworthy. I was stressed for absolutely no reason. My mom was there, which made the whole occasion more stressful, but he was sick so he couldn't really spend time with us. We stayed in his extra house though, which was cool (and cheaper). And saw my great-uncle, Vicente. Grandpa looks a lot worse than I remember, and last time I saw him was a year ago. Mom was soooo annoying-- as C said "I have never met anyone more ADD than her". Thanks mom. Oh, and "I don't ever want to go on vacation with you and your mom. My vacation would be getting to stay home." Again, thanks momma dearest. You have officially scared the crap outta my boyfriend. Sweet.

In other news, my last day at my current job is a week from today. I have been downsized....oof. At least they are giving me severance, and I have been on the hunt. I actually had an interview today. *finggers crossed*

I really want to go out for Halloween. C wants to stay home and "relax." Halloween is finally on a SATURDAY! We should be going out and having fun!!! But no. The last 2years of Halloween weren't fun either. He messed it up last year because he went to the Phillies World Series parade and we were supposed to go to the NYC parade with my friend, but by the time he got in the parade was almost over and my friend was drunk. Then we went to some bars and a mostly dead (not in the fun-Halloween-y way)house party. The year before I went out with coworkers and saw the parade (yay!) but afterwards we were supposed to go to Buddakan and we stood in line for like 2 hours, almost got ina fight with several people on line, and didn't even get in, even though we were on the damn guest list. So Whack.

Oh, and C and I went pumpkin picking about 2 weeks ago. We got 3 big pretty pumpkins that we were waiting to carve after our trip to PR. And somenoe STOLE them from right outside our apartment. WHO STEALS PUMPKINS!!! Argh!
