What a mess!?

...as I was saying, my friend from Ireland who came all the way to visit a friend in Boston and me in New York wanted to shorten her trip and go home early (from Monday to this Thursday). I was like WHY? The story began...

This guy she was going to visit was an old friend of hers. He now lives with his fiancee and their 2 year old son in Boston. They haven't talked in years, but got in touch again last July. So she'd planned this trip to visit him and I. The night she arrived Boston, this friend of hers invited her to uh...sleep together WITH HIM & HIS FIANCEE! *faint* (I hope no one under 18 is reading this blog) My friend freaked out...but don't ask me, she actually managed to sleep there on the couch for two nights (second night, this guy grabbed her hand when his fiancee wasn't around!!!!). So when she came down from Boston on Friday, she told me she wanted to go home early!!! She was supposed to go back to Boston on Monday. I was like NOOOO! You could stay in NYC for as long as you wanted and just DO NOT GO BACK to that guy's place anymore. BUT SHOCKING: She told me she still had her stuff there! I nearly fainted.

So we tried searching for another flight, but we couldn't find anything. Probably because it was Easter, everyone was flying, so everything was booked up. To purchase a new ticket, it'd have cost over $700!!! So not worth the money (although well worth not being attacked). So I suggested to her to take a trip or two and just stay in NYC. So on Monday, she took a trip to Washington DC. She came back on Tuesday and had a great time there.

Today, she went back to Boston to get her bag. She called him last night and told him she'd be back and would give him a call around 2 or 3pm. He said he'd be home all day (according to her, he'd taken off the whole week!), but this jerk didn't show up until after 6! So she waited for 3 hours plus just to get her bag. Anyway, she got her bag without much trouble and she's on her way back to NYC now... Whew...

And about my job...my boss went away last week. He told me to stay for at least one more week (last Friday was supposed to be my last day), so he could have some time to think about whether he'd let me work from home and how we could resolve our "differences". So Monday came, I went in and found out his dad just passed away on Sat. He didn't even make it back until Sunday! So much for talking to him. I don't think it's a good time to talk to him and really don't wanna bug him. His dad's funeral was today and we had today off. I took the opportunity to work on the house with Gary. So this kind of sums up what's been happening! We'll just have to wait and see on 1) when we'lll move back to the house, 2) if I will be without a job soon. :p
