Today's wacky holiday has to be the most fitting for my adventurous long weekend. I'm taking Ditch New Years Resolutions Day and taking it to another level.
January has to be my least favorite month of the whole year. Besides the fact that it's winter and cold, it's the one month that I'm always broke no matter what. I'm always broke in January, but with good reasons. Some of the most important people in my life are Capricorns. With Christmas and New Year's past then comes the birthdays all in a row. It first starts with my mother on the 4th, my boyfriend on the 10th, godmother on the 13th and my youngest aunt on the 14th (she's 37 this year and no one ever believes she my aunt).
So today I'm starting by taking my mother out to LIPS to New York City's best Drag Queen show. When I was with Bali my mom, aunt and I went to a gay bar and they had Drag Queens performing and it was so much fun. So I figured why not take my mom to a Drag Queen show here. I've read almost all the reviews on Yelp and everyone on there said this was the place to go. I hope it's everything I hope it would be.
Saturday I'm going to watch Rock of Ages for my boyfriend's birthday. He absolutely loves the 80s and once again the reviews on Yelp all said this was the show to see. I've seen some of the YouTube videos on it as well and you can't help but start singing and dancing along to the songs. Since I'm going to a daytime showing we'll be having an early dinner. For dinner we're going to Neely's Barbecue Parlor. I've always wanted to go here and the menu looks amazing. While I'm eating dinner there will be no such thing as New Years Resolutions (I know it's bad, but I know I'll pay for it).
Sunday I'll be going to my favorite Dim Sum in Flushing (Jade's Asian Restaurant). The review on it is on my other blog Inda's Tasty Reviews( Dim Sum Review). Although I just went there a little more than two weeks ago, my aunt the birthday girl suggested we go there. In my family whatever the birthday person wants they get. So Dim Sum it is.
Then Monday my I'm going to lay low and go to my mother's house and she already told me that she'll be ordering Chinese food that day. There's a good Chinese takeout spot in Woodhaven and that's where she'll be ordering our lunch that day.
With all these good places to go to my eating clean/healthy lifestyle will be paused for the long weekend. Then Tuesday starts the true starts one of the hardest test. I plan on going to the gym in the mornings. I know I can do this, and everyone isn't perfect especially when there's so many things to celebrate. So there it is all the things I'll be doing to ditch my New Year's Resolutions.
