Bye, Bye East Coast

The plan all along has been to live in Connecticut for two years (it's been about a year so far). Someone decided that they didn't like that plan so they went ahead and changed the plan for me.
Anyway, the point is, I'm moving home! And I will be there....are you ready for it...Tuesday, June 15, 2010. That's right. Just a little over two weeks and I will live in Utah again! I am still not fully sure how I feel about this new "plan". I am so excited to see my family and friends again, I've missed them terribly. But I really love the Pags and am going to miss them a lot, and I REALLY love New York City and I am going to miss it like I can't even explain. I think I'm still a little in shock about the whole thing. Both excited and sad, so I'm just trying to focus on the excited parts. Anyway, that's the news. Now you know.

Girls Night, Mystic, and Robin Hood

I haven't blogged in a while...sorry, I'll have to do a few update posts sometime but for today I will just write about my weekend, which was wonderful. On Friday, Sadie and I got all dressed up and went into White Plains, NY for a little girls night out. It's always fun hanging out with Sadie but Friday was especially fun cause we got the VIP treatment from the clubs while we were hanging out. We’re talking bouncers ignoring the long line of people waiting and hoping to get in so he can pull aside the velvet rope to let us in, then when we told him "Thanks but Sadie doesn't have her ID on her" he took us around to the side door to let us in there. It was great!

On Saturday, I drove my little self to Mystic, CT (which I've wanted to do since I moved here) and had a "little slice of heaven" (that would be Mystic Pizza...you know, like in the Julia Roberts movie, Mystic Pizza...) It was a pretty great slice, and the employees of Mystic Pizza were awesome. My waitress was chatting with me and then the manager Rob came up and was chatting with us. Then he volunteered to get in the picture with me and my slice of famous pizza.

After lunch I wandered around Mystic. It is a little fishing village and it used to be a big whaling port so I saw some cool things like the last surviving wooden whaling ship, a cute little lighthouse, and some tall ships. It was a fun little day. Then on Sunday, I went and saw the new Robin Hood movie, which I loved. All in all it was a pretty great weekend.
