it has seriously been a long time since i’ve posted anything new. shame on me. but i have excellent excuses-i took a vacation! well, a family vacation at least. i travelled, along with two of my siblings, to our family summer home. you know the type of beach town i am referring to-where the citifolk flee on the weekends in their range rovers, bmws, porshes, you get my point. i was curious to see if the current state of the economy would affect an area that has always been defined as ‘elite’ and ‘poshe’. i think this is the first time since its inception as the ‘playground for the rich and famous’ that real estate prices fell. and by fell, i obviously mean crashed and burned. like, 30 million dollar homes being foreclosed on. i was certain, that these people would be humbled and the line at the starbucks on mainstreet would be more tolerable. i mean, who is paying for a $5 latte when all of the bankers that have made this town what it is are all out of a j-o-b. ummm yeah-no. so apprantly my logical-or not so logical thinking-that of course i would retun to our family summer home to find less people sittting in bumper to bumper traffic in fancy cars and designer tennis attire was dead wrong. in fact, i don’t think i have ever waited so long to get me non-fat mocha! and right on cue-as i sat in a sushi resturaunt in town, one of the nyc housewives, THE Countess, sat right next to me with a beautiful playe of fresh sashimi. looks like things haven’t changed-or at least the memo has not been sent out.
other than that, and the fact that i am tired of flip flops and shorts, summer has been calm. calm is good. everything with previously spoken of young hottie is swell. he has learned a lot about what dating and how to treat a lady. in fact, sometimes i think i should have made a career out of educating men on how to keep a good woman. bringing me cookies, dvr-ing my favorite shows in case i forget to watch, loving my pets, admitting that i am always right etc. damn i’m goood.
