This week has been the week from hell. Hence why I have completely disappeared. I was all prepared for a week with my mom, having nice dinners, relaxing, doing the whole new york city thang.
Then Monday arrived and what seemed like a simple conference call from my boss landed most of the group in the bathroom crying our eyes out. Have I mentioned I have ALWAYS been level headed and calm in stressful situations when at work? I must have missed that memo on monday.
Insane, nearly impossible to make, deadline? Check. Unrealistic timeline? Double check.
So to make a very long story short, I was drowning in work and now I am beyond exhausted. Which makes Ashley not a very good blogger so today I am going to take the easy road out and do this post via pictures….
So we all know I was swamped at work….

(seriously, this is my desk, only imagine all those pieces of paper being 36″x48″.)
But other exciting things happened. Like over the weekend I got drunk at many design events. Including monday night with my mother (who spilled her red wine all over the table at one showroom. Whoooops.)

I also graduated on Tuesday from Radio City Music Hall. Me and LJ both have decided that due to circumstances during the ceremony we need to go back to school because we don’t know how to follow directions. At all. (So, we had to stand up by major instead of walking across the stage and it was in two parts right? Associates degrees and Bachelors. We stood up for….both. Did I mention we also screamed? Yeah. We. Are. Awesome.)

Wednesday, after working 12 hours and coming in on my day off to work till 8pm, I went to see a broadway show, Boeing Boeing which was HYSTERICAL and I loooooved it. Highly recommend it to anyone who wants to go see a broadway show. Before the show started though, I totally got checked out by a gorgeous actor…

I have no shame in posting his picture. YUM. And when I say I literally could run into an actor and not know it was him/her (I didn’t realize he was an actor until my mom pointed him out), I meant it. Coming out of the show I literally ran into….

and we apologized to each other and it wasn’t until my mom poked me and told me who he was did i realize it. I swear, Brad Pitt is going to have a full convo with me one day and I will NEVER KNOW.
Today I am leaving at 1pm to go home, pack, go to the guggenheim and actually spend some time with my mom since i haven’t been out of the office before 8pm the past few days. Then I am leaving on a jet plane for the ENTIRE weekend (sorry guys, no blogging from me til next week!) to go to michigan and have a relaxing weekend with my family sleep alot and lazy around on a beach on lake michigan which will be WAY TOO COLD to actually go near.

Since I have been incredibly, painfully, MIA from the blogland I have NO idea what is going on in your lives. Tell me what you have been up to and what fun plans you have for memorial day weekend!
Hope you have a fabulous one!
