Back from Charlottesville

- My best friend while driving
1. HAPPY NEW YEAR YOU GUYS! AND GIRLS!
2. This is just a heads up to say that I got back from Charlottesville on Tuesday night and HELL, I'M TIRED.
Of course, I want to write about my adventures—which ended up being less food-filled than I had planned—but I may not have time for a while because I'm working and Tristan came back to NJ with me to hang out. I am slowly updating my flickr page in case you want something to look at and read in Robyn-speak.
Why did the weekend not end up being a gorge-fest? A combination of places not being open as late as we would've hoped and New Year's Eve being a good time for restaurants to close. Oops. Oh well, I wouldn't want to work on New Year's Eve either.
I didn't even go to the Downtown Mall and I was something like a 10 minute walk from it. I KNOW, I SUCK. However, I did get to go to Spudnuts! Oh, The Blognut would be so proud. But I didn't get to go to Chaps. And thus the proudness recedes...
Eating kind of took a backseat to just hanging out and...yes, mostly that. My most awesome meal was at Aqui Es Mexico. Because anything with horchata and pupusas is awesome. Don't you known it. (I also had awesome Ethiopian food and gelato in Washington DC.)
Annnnd that's my little update. Hope to have a real one soon.

Help out roboppy?
If you do want to help me out monetarily, here are some easy non-obtrusive ways to give back:
- Buy stuff through my amazon ID!
: This is the BEST WAY to help me out without throwing money at my feet. I buy most of my material goods from amazon.com, and it would help me shittons if you bought stuff through my link. I don't get much per order, but the referral fees can add up.
- buy t-shirts through my Threadless Street Team thinger!
- Get webhosting with Dreamhost.com and enter roboppy@gmail.com as the referral
You need stuff from amazon.com and you should buy t-shirts from threadless (I've been somewhat loyal to them for the past five years). Thank you for making sure I don't resort to pan-handling and robbery!
