What a cute.....

So this past weekend I of course worked.  Something not shocking at all cause I work in the retail world and that's when we are most busy.  A lot people would HATE this.  Me, not so much.  It could be I'm just so use to it, having worked retail since I was 13.  But more so I like it cause when everyone's at work during the week I can get everything I need to get done without having to deal with mobs of people.

So my commute to work is pretty sweet.  (On both the Cape and in Nola)  I walk about 2 blocks to work in nola and probably even less then that on the cape.  This is perfect for my little man cause it means he can get a nice little walk mid-day to go do all his business. 

So Saturday I come back to my apartment to take Brady out and eat lunch.  We go our normal route and are in the home stretch back to the apartment. I'm dreaming about my delicious chicken salad sandwich I'm going to be making when we get back inside.  About half way down the block I see a little thing run out of the parking garage that's around the corner from my apartment.  So I think in my head awwwww what a cute little chipmunk!

Then I realize something.... I'm in a city.... with not a lot of trees... and none even close to where I am right now... so that only means one thing.... its a....



That's right!  It was a RAT!!!  Eeeeeeeek!!  Now don't get me wrong, I really don't mind rats, mice, hamsters, etc.  I had a hamster when I was younger named tri-pod cause he only had 3 feet and I felt soooo bad for him at the pet store cause I figured no one else would take home a deformed hamster.  But a rodent on the street is completely different.  The little/HUGE guy ran under a car that we had to walk by and I almost had a heart attack and ran faster then I have in years!!  We made it safely by and I haven't seen him since, and really hope we never cross paths again!

Other than that the weekend was pretty uneventful.  I'm just getting back into the swing of things trying to unpack and get settled again.  The gas is shut off in my apartment and I'm not really sure when it will be back on (long story).  So for now I've been cooking with my George Foremen.  I haven't used that puppy in years and totally forgot how handy it can be. 

In breaking news I just got a TMZ News Alert on my bberry thats says 'Jersey Shore' Cast -- We're Goin' to Italy!!!  This sounds scary and ohhhhh so amazing at the same time.  Can't wait to see if this is true!!
