osarabaSo I've been away from LJ for the past month or so. I haven't really caught up on everyone's posts, but I just don't think I'll have time to do that. If there's anything you want to brag about/gossip/share with me, please comment! I love chatting. ^^
As for me, every weekend for the past several weeks has been filled with plans. Recently, a bunch of us (AJ, Maryann, Liz, Juliet, Judy) went to the American Museum of Natural History -- thanks to Judy's contact we got free vouchers to see up to 4 special exhibits. Mainly we went to see the Mythic Creatures exhibit, which was interesting, but it seemed targetted more toward kids than adults. It was decently informative and I learned some new things, but again, it wasn't anything to write home about. The Cosmic Collisions film in the Planetarium, however, was exciting and awesome. Man, I'd love to go see it again. I love being in the dark and some of the scenes where asteroids and such come flying at you are simply exhilerating. (Or scary, if you have a fear of heights/falling like![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

And discovered that the 3 and 4 go right near his house, so it was a lot easier taking the 4 into Manhattan and then transferring to get back into Queens than it would have been trying to take the shuttle since the L was all screwed up.
This past weekend was really awesome and amazing and other such words. Stampede's birthday party was on Friday night in the back room at Whiskey River. Lots of people showed up ~ many people I haven't seen in months, like Victor, E-man, Sean Badguy, Elise! And I was really happy that Sean came too, even though he'd previously had other plans.
Saturday I missed out on the mini-golf get-together, which is really too bad because I've been wanting to go mini-golfing for at least a year or two. I had to do family stuff, so... but I'm pretty sure there's a mini-golf place in Queens I might be able to go to, I just have to find out where it is. For some reason, I want to say that it's in Rosedale. I also seemed to have missed an interesting time at Vic's BBQ. In light of Chris's descriptions, I very much regret having missed the party. ^_~
But Sunday made up for it. Helped Judy and Juliet (who are officially going out, btw) move the rest of Judy's stuff from her old apartment to her new one. I got to drive the small 10' truck, which was a lot of fun. I miss being high up off the ground when driving -- with no worries over potholes and bumps and such. So nice and easy. Oh, but the lack of the rearview mirror freaked me out sometimes. Later, Sean joined us and we walked around in the rain, ate dinner, tried to visit AJ at work (who was very unaccomodating) since his office building is within 5 blocks of Judy's new apartment. ^_~
Hmm, more details later.
