Just Another Day In the Life

Katie and I clearly work too much. I have had nothing worth writing about for the past two weeks, nothing even mediocre to explain in a mildly entertaining manner. However, I decided to try and collage some things together to at least obtain a laugh from a few sympathetic readers.

As you know, Felix and Chris moved in with us and it has been rad. I have come to the realization that Felix is irresistible to women, and yes men as well...

Felix is able to seduce the most seductive of all nationalities (discounting the French because im not quite a fan), the Italians...

This is Danielle the Italian im going to marry in the States so he can gain citizenship :)


Our roommate Chris and Felix also get along amazingly well....



And we all know he's always up for a good time...



In all seriousness, Felix is an amazing guy with an awesome girlfriend that Katie and I had the opportunity to meet when she came to visit. Felix is so adorably innocent, yet hysterically inappropriate when the time comes around. He truly is one of the nicest guys ever, unless it comes to killing bugs. Then he goes to Jenah (who is about 5'1'' and 100lbs) to do the job.

Chris is pure awesomeness as well. He's the kind of guy that you can tell is the youngest with older sisters. Hes always up for a cuddle...




I have kept saying I wanted to watch The Dark Knight because I have never seen it and Felix kept telling me it was on his computer and we were all FINALLY going to watch it, but FELIX then remembered that it was in German and I was totally bummed out. (How about that for a run- on sentence).

The next night Chris made me dinner, bought a cake AND had borrowed the Dark Knight (in English)! Sometimes it's the little things that make all the difference :) I've even watched, enviously, as he gave Katie a foot rub after she had a long day. Aw!


So, as to what has been happening lately, Katie went on a date with a forty year old. Awesome. The photographer that came into Ferrari called her later to find out about the lighting in the showroom in the morning and then proceeded to coerce her over the phone to set up a day and time for dinner. The day she was going out with him she looked at me and said "I literally have no idea how old he is. He might be forty and I don't remember what he looks like". Awwww haha. In the end she had a good time and had sushi for the first time a overall a good night. Unfortunately for him, that will be the extent.

I, under Katie's influence, got a little to intoxicated on Saturday and pulled a, what we will just call a "Jacque" and managed to lose my wallet, phone and yes, shoes. The wallet was returned however thanks to Facebook and the man told me that the found it on a sidewalk next to a bag that had shoes, and three bags of half eaten crisps in it...typical. I apparently just set them down and walked away. Really? Hmm.. Mom, dont be too proud, other parents might get jealous ;)

I also realized I can never ever be any type of famous because this blog will clearly be blackmail worthy at some points. Awesome.

Anyway...

Katie and I still miss Taco Bell with all of our SOULS. Katie still works about six days a week, I generally work five with some 14 hour work days in there. Vomit.

Today it is Mardi Gras which apparently is a pretty big deal down town and they do a parade and everything, however, today Katie has to work and I am going to the beach (yes, that's right. HELLOOOO Sunshine!) Then Katie will be going to the movies with her boss and I will be going to play laser tag, bowling and then we all are meeting up and going ...somewhere that has yet to be determined. I just remembered that I dont have shoes so most likley wont be going anywhere. Awesome.

Oh When the Saints go marching in....

At the current moment nothing tooo exciting is going on in the world of Katie and Jacque. Katie is still being amazing at Ferrari and working 830-5 then going to the gym and I am working either 7-1 or any other random times at the coffee place or whatever other random times at the North Face.

The most exciting joint excursion we have had happened to be the day that "The Saints (went) marching in". Yes, the Superbowl which Katie and I both happened to have off. Our friend Louisiana Katie had found a bar called James Squire in Darling Harbour where the American Association of something or other had decided to meet and rally for the ultimate American past time (I honestly have no idea if that is how 'past time' is supposed to be). LK and I went and were there for kick off (which was our Monday at 10:00am) and started drinking, her with a Bloody Mary and me with a beer followed by several vodka cranberries. While we were watching the game we met some Americans (Shocking!!) Derek and Joe were both taking a year off from school at Syracuse to row in Melbourne and they were with their two Australian friends Tom and Nick. Katie finally showed up and we all hung out and ate drank and watched football. Generally it was an awesome morning.

After the game, which was awesome (we were rooting for the Saints due to Katie being from Louisiana in case you werent sure) we went to a place called Nicks for lunch. I had a pie. After that Katie, Katie and I went home except Katie got off the train and went to the gym Adan I got off and went to the gym as well. WORST WORKOUT EVER. Apparently one of the trainers at Katie's gym asked her if she wanted her free personal training sessions bad bad idea. :)

That night Joe called Katie and the two of us went and met the four boys at Sidebar which was basically under their hostel. It was super chilled out and we all just danced and hung out. Katie was introduced to this girl whose name none of us remember and the girl kept dancing with Katie..hmmm. When I was on my way back from the bathroom I see Katie with a look of pure terror on her face. Naturally I freak out and am like "WHAT HAPPENED?" There was no need for fear....Apparently the girl had asked Katie if she were into any of the guys and Katie said "No, not really" the girls response "Me either, IM into you" and then she tried to kiss her. I would have given all the money in my bank account (which I guess isnt saying too much)to see the reaction when that occurred.

Anyway, the rest of the night was uneventful in comparison and we all just danced watched a HAMMERED Nick make out with every girl he saw and then took a cab home though the guys kept trying to get us to go back to Darling Harbour and continue drinking with them...awww.

All in all good night...rough next morning :)

As a side note...I really hate that our grocery store are in our malls. So irritating for some reason..
