I’m very lucky to have such a patient boyfriend. I was extremely stressed about never finding a job after that terrible 4 hour interview, to the point where I actually made myself sick. He thought it would be nice for us to have a couple’s spa afternoon. We had a lovely exfoliation, bath and massage, but one of my favorite parts was when Fergie was filling out the health form for...
Drink, Shop & Do
Drink, Shop & Do has been on my “to do” list for a while now. I remember reading about it months ago before I even moved here and thinking I needed to go there. Cafe/bar, cute home decor and crafts? I’m in. When I saw a groupon pop up for afternoon tea, I bought it ASAP. In fact, I was the second (of 4000+) to buy it.
It’s in an old Victorian bathhouse near...
St John Bread & Wine
I read a while back that St John Bread & Wine had the best bacon sandwich in London, so I put it on my eating agenda.
With breakfast only being served from 10-11 on the weekends, we knew we’d have to get up early and make our way over there.
An early morning (well, early for an unemployed person), means a big cup of coffee.
No need to peruse the menu. We had bacon sandwiches on...
Thames walk with Nate
The forecast for the rest of the week looked rainy, so I dragged Nate out for a 3 mile walk along the Thames on Tuesday.
We started at the Tower of London and then we made our way over the Tower Bridge, to which Nate said “I poop on you!”
We walked past the HMS Belfast…
…the Globe Theater
….and St. Paul’s
Positives
I haven’t posted too much recently and the reason is that I’ve had a bit of a case of the sadz. I still miss my friends and family, I haven’t made any friends so I’m pretty lonely and being unemployed is boooring.
I’ve done some thinking and I don’t want to be 2 or 3 years down the line heading back to NYC and thinking that I didn’t take advantage of...
Of all the shows to import and make their own version of, the UK has chosen Tool Academy. Questionable.
New Year's Eve 2011
Since Fergie’s London friends are all single, it was just me and the boys last night. (Seriously, I NEED to find girlfriends for these guys)
Luckily we managed to take a nice picture before the night got fuzzy.
Because after that, there were jager bombs (I opted to be the photographer)…
and icing…
and drunken self portraits…
and tying balloons to Fergie?
