I'm tired just typing

It's a good thing I wrapped up with '30 blogs in 30 days' last Wednesday (note: I actually extended it to '31 blogs in 31 days'...what can I say, I like to go the extra mile), because this week has been quite a doozie.

On Monday, I attended '24 Hour Plays.' Tuesday, the Terry College of Business hosted a New York Alumni Happy Hour. Since most of my UGA friends in the city are fellow Terry grads, we had a great time hanging out and catching up with folks in town from Georgia. After the happy hour, a few friends were going out to dinner. I started to decline since it was late, but alas! - I realized it was Tuesdays with a Twist! Seriously, this is how my brain works; I make way too many life decisions based on how I can blog about it later. Anyhow, we went to a late dinner at L'Express, which turned into a full night out (mostly because our food took at least an hour to come out). It was quite fun, though, and I was glad my blog was propelling my social life full steam ahead.

Wednesday was, quite honestly, a very bad day at work. In order to console us, my boss organized an impromptu team gathering SINGING KARAOKE. Yes, karaoke with my bosses and team...it was awesome. We sang ridiculous songs and came up with some awesome personalized lyrics and dance moves, and I probably haven't laughed that hard in my entire life. But the fun didn't stop there! After our team gathering, I headed with my roommates to Emily's small group Thanksgiving dinner. It was one of the most New York nights (because New York is not only a noun but an adjective) I've had in a long time. We gathered in a beautiful huge apartment on the Upper West Side, ate a full out Thanksgiving dinner, and enjoyed group entertainment, including piano performances, a rousing rendition of 'Sisters' from White Christmas, a comedic bit where someone sang a phone book, and much much more. It was such a lovely time and a great way to end a hard day.

Yesterday, Thursday, Lauren, Bethany and I attended a Pat Green concert at Irving Plaza. Pat is one of my favorite country artists in concert, and we had a blast at the show. It's the third time I've seen Patty in New York, and he never disappoints!

And here we are on Friday. The week is wrapping up...I have a friend's birthday party tonight, plus I have to pack - I head to Atlanta for a week tomorrow!

Phew...I'm tired just typing it all. Can't wait for a nice long holiday week off!
