The New York City Experience

on Jun 23 in Bloggin', Comedy Shows, NYC tagged Alicia Love, Boston, Comedy, Groceries, New York, NYC by Alicia

I’m beginning to feel like a New Yorker. Although I refuse to ever get used to going to a bar and seeing the Yankees on every television, I makes me nauseas. Aside from that, I’ve started to experience some true city livin’! After living in my apartment for several weeks I decided that it was high time I went to the grocery store. A girl can only eat Chef Boyardee and cereal for so many days. I live 5 blocks away from the closest supermarket, which isn’t that bad! I went into the supermarket and I was in for a bit of culture shock! I’m from the suburbs, I’m use to full size supermarkets like Shaw’s and Stop & Shop. This “supermarket” had 6 aisles and about 150 shoppers. It was like shopping on the highway at rush hour! Some patrons were brave enough to venture through the store with a shopping cart, which aren’t full size shopping carts, they look pretty similar to the toy shopping carts my nieces play with. I went the hand basket route. Those baskets get extremely heavy when you begin to realize you have absolutely no food in your house. Right now I have amazing triceps just from food shopping!

Seriously, I love New York more than I could have ever imagined. I’m still coming back to Boston on a regular basis to chat everyone up on the radio. Check out Mix 104.1 every Saturday night and you can hear me taking over the airwaves. I promise to post more of my NY adventures soon!

I Made It To NYC!

on Jun 16 in Bloggin', NYC tagged by Alicia

I’ve made it to New York City! I even found a normal roommate that doesn’t wear diapers!! Things are good,I live in a shoebox apartment on the Upper East Side. I haven’t had too much time to go exploring since I started my job the day after I moved in. I did however find out the hard way what happens when you get on an express train!! Apparently they don’t stop at every stop and then you’re trapped on the train!! We learn from our mistakes right? I’m starting to understand the subway system…at least that’s what I keep telling myself so I’m not terrified when I get lost! It’s an adjustment but I’m trudging along. Work is great, I work with some very nice people. We’ve been eating lunch in Bryant Park, where they film Project Runway. It’s so nice! I’ll be honest, my first night in the city was rough. I had boxes everywhere, I could barely find clothes to wear to work the next day. I was trying to sleep in a loft bed that I bought off of Craig’s List and that I put together myself. I was super homesick and terrified that my bed was going to tip over! I slept for about an hour and sleepily headed off to work the next day. Things have gotten better since that first night thank God! The only down fall to my new job is that I can’t wear jeans!!! I’ve worked at a radio station for years, I ONLY wear jeans, so you know this is a struggle for me! That’s about it for now. Big things are coming so I’ll have a new update really soon

The Roommate Search Is In Full Swing, You Should Pray For Me!

on Jun 02 in Bloggin', NYC tagged Alicia Love, Diapers, New York City, Rommate by Alicia

So the roommate search hasn’t been going as well as I expected. I’ve come across quite a few lunatics who are looking for people to live with them. My goal during this whole process was to try to avoid anyone with serial killer potential. Again, not going so well. Below are a few real ads for roommates. One I found online and the other was in response to an ad I posted looking for a roommate… Read More

I Made A New Friend!

on May 28 in Bloggin', Observations by Alicia tagged Alicia Love, Bum, Homeless, honesty, lies, spare change by Alicia

 

I met this guy then other night over by the North End in Boston. I loved him, he was so funny so I gave him a dollar for his honesty. Then he tried to hug me and I loved him just a little bit less.

Apparently My Website Is Possessed!

on May 03 in Bloggin', Internet Craziness tagged by Alicia

So apparently my website has a mind of it’s own. When I post something new it’s suppose to email it out to anyone who has signed up for my email list. Well for some reason today my site sent out something I posted in October as if it were a brand new post. I think my site has decided to take it upon itself to let me know when I’m being utterly lazy and haven’t posted anything in a while. The demons who live in my website start randomly sending out old crap to taunt me. I guess the only way to fend off the internet goblins is to start posting more.

Once Upon A Time I Was The Easter Bunny At The Mall…

on Apr 06 in Bloggin' tagged Alicia Love, Bunny, Costume, Easter, Easter Bunny, Kids, Mall, Pictures, South Shore Plaza by Alicia

I’ve had a lot of very random jobs. The most random being the Easter Bunny at my local mall. Yes, if in 1997-1998 you sat on the Easter Bunny’s lap at the South Shore Plaza in Braintree Massachusetts then you and I have met. I’ve even had your ass on my thigh, which means I know you intimately. I was very into “photography” at the time so I thought getting a job taking pictures of screaming kids sitting on a giant bunny would look great on my resume. When I applied for the job they informed me that in order to take pictures I would have to get in the bunny suit every once in a while, that was the point where I should have said thanks but no thanks. Obviously I was certain that this was going to be a great career move so I willingly agreed to be the bunny.  Read More

How Much Is Too Much?

on Mar 13 in Bloggin', Observations by Alicia tagged 3d TV, Panasonic, Technology by Alicia

Panasonic has come out with a 3D TV for your home and now we’re at the point where I think we may have finally hit technology overload. I can barely keep track of where I put my car keys never mind having to find 3D glasses when I want to watch an episode of  The Golden Girls! The last thing I need is to be watching TV on my giant 3D set and accidentally land on an episode on Larry King Live, I could lose an eye if one of those suspenders pops! Read More
