Sorry its been so long

New Addiction WOW. Not gonna post alot about it, I've been playing, and its been fun. Andrew plays also, so we do stuff together in game sometimes too. which is nice.

here's some screen shots though.

Gryphons are used to travel around the world, this is me on a gryphon with the sunset in the background.

Here is me in a shop with a floating thingy from the valentines day. I can't really explain what it is, but if you look behind me there is a floating goblin.

Ok this is jellacle and Tyrrion (it might be one R.). Basically its me and Andrew in game. You should see us dance, its really creepy.
Here is us Lying together.

OK, that's it for now. back to my addiction.

howdy

Sorry this took so long to get to, Monday I had to take my Mom to the hospital for some tests unexpectedly. Nothings wrong, she's doing fine, just the kinda stuff that happens when you have cancer. they just expect you to run around constantly in the frigid cold. And yesterday was my book club.

So anyway, Penguin day. We got to the aquarium a bit early, so we had to wait around for awhile. but finally we got to go out to the penguin house. Andrew and I were in the first group that went inside to learn about how the penguins are cared for and such. a few penguins were inside, and we got to take pictures of them.

The green mat is where they sleep, evidently they are territorial, and if someone gets too close to a penguin's chosen mat, they get bit. LOL which kept happening to the biologist, the one penguin didn't like when she got close to the mat.

These penguins are warm weather penguins, and are from Africa. the black band on their chest is a sign that they are warm weather climate birds.

Also the pink patches of skin are a sign of the Warm weatherness. its how excess heat escapes. We also found out that since they don't like the cold, they leave the door open so they can come inside and get warm.

The stairs are gated off from the rest of the room, so the biologists can do their "care" duties without 20 penguins driving them crazy. Finally at one point the shoooed the penguins outside for the other group to do enrichment activities with, and we went out to sit and pose for pics with a penguin. Theres a really bad video an employee took, thinking they were taking a pic in another post below.

So then we went around front to see the other penguins, and do enrichment activities.

This is a flock of cold penguins, sitting at a door saying, can we go in now?

LOL so after that, andrew and I went in to get warm, and came back out at 11:00ish to watch the penguins be fed.

Thats when we got some nice pics of my penguin Jack. He's #119.

And no, I can't tell by looking which is Jack, only by the band. though Jack was one of the taller ones there.

Then we hung out at the aquarium, which is really nice, and headed home. We didn't get murdered, which is also nice.

Later!

Friday

Ok, So Friday we headed down to Camden for Penguin day. So the drive down wasn't bad, its pretty much a straight shot down the turnpike. It didn't start raining until after we got down there, so the roads weren't bad, and not too much traffic. So when we go there , we checked in and went to the room. We stayed at a Double Tree Suites, which this was very nice, had a sitting room with a door and a bedroom. very comfortable. So we looked through the "what can you do in the area book, and decided to go to a local mall.
Ok, so the mall pretty much sucked, wasn't that big, and was like any other mall, but it was out, and walking. But it did have one thing that was pretty neat. there was a rink, I guess you'd call it, set up so you could, roller blade/ skate board, and bmx bike, with ramps and stuff in the mall. it was pretty cool looking, made me wish I lived in the area. I miss roller blading, but the roads are too rough here for me, it gives me a headache. So that was pretty neat, though they didn't seem to rent skates, so I didn't get to skate in it.

Then we went back to the hotel, to waste some time before dinner. Andrew ended up putting on Law and Order reruns while I was reading. I'm still stunned by what happened. This was the episode with the gay couple that adopted a baby, and the birth father kidnaps the kid and beats one of the parents to death. So they are going for a bias crime. They put the mother of the child on the stand, and ask her, what did the defendant say when you asked him to stop kicking the victim, and she says "______________________" They censored it. Now, this is a show that plays on Network TV. and they censored a line. I couldn't believe it. I mean where was I the bible belt of the state of NJ? LOL. basically, it really surprised me. And upset me. I don't like censorship. Now, I expect that since it is public TV, that if something that was done, lets say for HBO is picked up, there may be some changes made to words that are said. While I may not personally agree with it, its the law, and there are reasons for it (similar as to why chicks dancing naked aren't allowed to on a street corner, but can inside the building on that street corner. its kinda, people choose to have cable, especially premium channels, its more public having NBC. But the idea that TNT - a cable channel would censor something that was aired on a public channel is scary to me.
Ok, so after the shock wore off, andrew and I went to dinner at Chilli's, where I had a gift card. So that was nice. Then we went back to the B.Dalton, to get coffee and Andrew bought a book. then back to the hotel, and not much else happened.
I'll talk about Penguin day in another post!
Later all.

WOW

World of warcraft - For those of you who don't know. BTW I'll post about the penguin thing later. So I've started a trial for WOW. Andrew plays, and has been bugging me to play for awhile so I signed up. Its not bad, but the graphics aren't that great. but so far it isn't bad. haven't really partied (played with other players) or anything, but I'm still new.
I'm a hunter Night Elf (er, I think that's right. LOL. I have pointy ears I know that.) which means I can have pets. Though I don't have one yet. But I did the quest that allows me to have pets, so here are some pics of me and the temporary pets.
:)

Penguin Video

I'll post more later. just trying to get this to work.

Stuff and Thingy - And now my husband blames Chuck

First off, I have done my part to make sure the greatest video of all time doesn't call me in 7 or 10 days and then come out of the computer monitor to kill me, by showing it to my husband. I'm pretty sure he will show it to Dave later, and then it will be Dave's problem.
In other news I'm doing a trial of World of Warcraft. Its not bad, and I'll be able to play with my husband and Big Chris later, so I'll take it and be happy I guess. I still have 8 days to decide its the stupidest game in the world and stop playing though.
Not really sure I have much more to say. I went to work today, but it was a slow day.
So I guess I'll go now.
Later all

this will probably be really short cause I'm tired

Actually though, had a decent weekend. Now I get to rest, and I have tomorrow off. Which will be really nice. So, lets see, how did the weekend go. Friday went to work, agreed to change my day off so I could be available to call into a meeting I'm not important enough to actually attend - its in England.
Then I came home, did some stuff, nothing thrilling and went to the con again. Hung out with Keyser until I had to be at reg, then worked reg all night. People really seemed to like my two lumps shirt, which was cool. Then I left at about 11 pm, rushed home, fed furrballs, and went to bed.
Saturday I had to be at the con for 8:00 am, which I was only a few min late. did reg for a bit until after noon - they didn't have a replacement person for the morning people. YUCK! though I did get a security guard of my very own.
Occasionally, people will ask for their badge in such a way that I become weird and ask "and what do I get in return). One of the security guys brought the other security guy over so when I asked the first pointed to the second. I went "I get HIM!! OOOOHH!" The guy seemed just as excited. LOL. Ok, side note, this is a gaming convention, which means lots of dorky guys and not that many girls, regardless of looks. So, if one of the 5 females hits on you in any form at one of these, you have acheived greatness. A GIRL talked to you. ooooh. LOL. So no I don't believe he thought I was the greatest thing since sliced bread, but that I had a tight t-shirt and boobs.
ok, back to story. oh, Friday night this guy showed up, and had a roll of bondage tape. Its made to stick to itself, but nothing else. I asked to be bondaged, so he wrapped a bunch around one of my wrists (since I was laminating badges and stuff I couldn't be "cuffed".
So I put the tape back on Saturday morning.
while I'm getting the security guy regged he asks what I did to my wrist. LOL I say, oh its bondage tape, turn to the other and said, now he really thinks he won on this deal. LOL to which they both agreed.

So anyway. I finally got some free time, hung out in CCG - had a coffee. walked a bit with my lovely husband. I also tried a cool CCG (Collectable Card Game) Called Redemption. It is a christian based CCG, and was easy to learn, good mechanics, and alot of fun. Oh, I had lunch also. So then I went back to reg.
Now there is this thingy called a winter ren faire here in NJ. I have been thinking of going, because some people I know will be there, and its like 20 min from my house. So all in all, kinda a win/win. Now, its an "adult" faire, by which they say all outfits need to be beach friendly. and some stuff will be a bit risque. No big deal. I figured I could wear my lion costume, have some fun.
So the guy who runs this show got a table at the con - right across from reg. He was wandering alot, introducing himself to people, so he left a note at his table that he would be back, take a flyer, and leave him a note. So I did. Later at reg, he came by, and I told him, oh, I left you a note. He comes over to me and says, I saw, and I really would like you to come to my faire, and if you do, I promise to personally have sex with you. His name is Jeff Mach There is a very nice pic of him on this page, that makes him look much nicer then he really did. So I'm standing here thinking uh, no. I respond by saying, oh, I would get in trouble if I did that. He responds with I will sleep with your husband, boyfriend, girlfriend wife, who ever else as well so you don't get in trouble.
Now, I realize that I take part in activities that are not the most conservative. I am not afraid of a bit of off-color comments, a little risque humor, some flirting, stuff like that. But this was just creepy. I forget what I said to get rid of him, but I'm actually now thinking maybe I don't want to go to this winter faire thing, because of how he acted. LOL.
Ok. so a little while later, a gentleman comes to the booth, and very nicely asks if I would want to meet him for coffee sometime. I very politely explained I was married, but thanked him. Wheeee. I love being asked out, makes me feel vaguely attractive still. And he was respectful and very nice, which went well.
Then we had chocolate, and then I had a convo with a young lady who was promoting some future cons who was also across fromt the reg desk. Evidently, she was hit on as well, but a scary guy. This guy who hit on her, said will you be at these cons? oh then I'll be there, and licked his lip. Then came over later and said, have you decided to take me up on my offer? ew. LOL we were laughing at the horrible come ons, and then she told me that the guy from the winter faire would get to his table by climbing under it. One time he did that he grabbed her ankle and say oooh, nice view (she had on jeans). LOL. yeah, he was just kinda creepy.
Ok, so that was pretty much it of interest. Time for me to stop typing, so I can get something to drink and play some pogo games.
Have fun all!

YAY I have a red dress!

ok, so I found a red dress last night in Woodbridge mall. Chris and I walked through the whole thing, and discovered slightly more red dresses, but not really that many. At least I have a witness that they really are hard to find. But I got one at Torrid, and its really nice. I also got a red headband with white hearts and a pair of white shoes.

Yesterday was the award/thanks ceremony for the Heart walk I did in October. I got an award for being the "heart" of my companies campaign, as in did lots of work so that we were successful. I guess we were, my company raised over $30,000 for the walk. And there was a free lunch, which is always nice. Unfortunately, I picked up shirts for my team, and they gave me stupid sizes, which is annoying. eh, everyone will live.

Ok, so I will be at Dreamation this weekend, every day but Sunday. If you go, say hi - I'm at reg, you won't miss me.

On that note I'm going to change and run some errands, and head out.

Later all.

Today in the life of jellacle

So 24 was pretty cool. I really wasn't expecting that guy to be Jack's brother. Andrew thought it was a little forced, but I said, we've only seen like 6 or 7 days in Jack's entire life, it kinda isn't that big of a deal if we don't know his family.
So that was fun, and I hope Assad isn't gone, I love his eyes. Ok, so maybe that isn't the most important reason to have someone on a tv show, but it rates up there with they show their breasts.
In other news my presentation went well. So I will have worker bees for my go red event in Feb. And I didn't die doing the presentation.
I'm also going to be walking on April 22nd in a heart walk - yeah, this is kinda an important organization for me. Heart disease kills. So we should get rid of it.
hmm, not sure what else to say.
Happy Birthday Shawn!

LOL my life part whatever - I don't remember how many posts I've done so far.

So Dave actually came over yesterday. We went to the mall cause he wanted to use his gift card for some legos, and I wanted to walk. When we got there his phone rang, he had to go into work that night for overtime IN CASE it snowed. It hadn't started snowing yet. and it really didn't snow, but on the off chance it might snow he got to get overtime. Which is good, I'm glad he got overtime, but it sucked that he didn't get to hang out. we kept saying, uh huh, you are going to PA, aren't you. LOL.
So, Anyway. tomorrow I do a go red presentation, and I'm SOOO Nervous. and I'll have to survive until 2:00 pm to do it, which is scary. But I have everything set up at work, so I'm ready. Just need to get through it.
hmmm, what else is going on. Not much. I went shopping today for a red dress - for the go red event in Feb. Its kinda depressing, there really weren't red dresses for sale. The few I saw were either ugly, or didn't have my size. Ok one was just WAAAAY too expensive for me.
oh, my phone is ringing. its a bit far for me to go get it. so I won't. LOL.
back to the dress. so I mean, are red dresses that unpopular? I thought it wouldn't be that hard to find one, but all the winter stuff was black and brown, and the spring stuff was pastel. I guess I'm just weird.
Ok, I'm done for now, new 24 tonight, so I'll probably post my thoughts on it tomorrow.
Later

BUNI!!!! I MISS YOU.

I know my grammar sucks so too bad but...
du fehlst mir. Geht es Ihnen gut?
Thats it, my german sucks. Just picture me with a little book looking up the words. LOL

Cat Love and other important jellacle thoughts

Or what I did with my day, along with a big dose of why having a cat love you is bad.

LOL, Andrew found that this morning, the poor thing. It didn't look like that last night. And it still has a face which is kinda sad. But it was loved by Kitty.

So today I went and looked at assisted living centers for my grandmother. They are really expensive here, I don't think she'll move here. But I really, really, really pray she does. Anywhooo. I went to 2 today, I wanted to go to 3 but I had to wait for a long time at one for a tour. My goal when I retire is to live in one of these places, they are amazing, all your meals cooked, laundry done, housekeeping assistance, friends in the building, well if you like the people living there anyway. They always seem really nice. One is right across from a stripmall, which could be nice for errands and such.

Otherwise I pretty much didn't do much. played some computer games, read some of a book, watched a little tv. Andrew worked today, so I didn't really spend time with him, the game was tonight, I could have gone with him, but really don't want to be up that late.

I did get to talk to my old pal Mike. I found him on myspace, which rocks totally. Though he still hasn't explained how he turned into a lizard, but I'm sure he'll explain that eventually.

LOL.

I also just read a wonderful piece in Time magazine, which has really changed my life. ok, actually it hasn't. It says that it is good to be messy. YAY!
ok, that's it I guess for now. no new law and order, but new Psych! Wheee.

The Kids

Ok, so we went to the Big Apple Con today. it was pretty fun, even though we didn't get any autographs - which is odd for us. We took the train in from town. it was pretty cold, some snow was still on the ground from last night too. Andrew brought a comic book to get autographed but the artist didn't get there by the time we left. we got there after two, and left after 4:00. First booth we stopped at was a very nice couple that sells T-shirts of Marvel Comic Characters, Andrew ended up getting a new ghost rider shirt before we left from them. We then wandered around to see what was there, and at one booth this guy had Angel vampire Smile time puppet and Spike as a smile time puppet for $60 each. He said if I got both I could have them for $50 each. These guys are beautiful btw, hand made, and the buttons on the coats and shirts work, and they have really awsome details, like the pockets on the coats are really pockets. They are also limited editions - Angel is 10,000 units and Spike was 5,000 units. They are numbered, but the boxes are upstairs and I don't want to bother to go look and get what the actual number of the guys are. So when we got them the guy said, oh you are going to get the kids. LOL, so here are the kids.
We picked up these little Batman Kubrick figures for Dave and Andrew got a spiderman figure. We walked around a bit, got to talk to some people that we've gotten to know at these shows, and ran into an old Ren Faire friend. So basically, not as thrilling as some cons, but alot of fun, some neat stuff, and some exercise.
Ok, that's all for now, have fun all.

so andrew will be happy

my husband actually complained that he came here, and I didn't have a new post, I can't imagine WHY, I do talk to him, but it was funny.
So, 24 was pretty cool. I can't believe Jack shot Curtis. oh, and the nuke going off, but the Curtis thing was much more shocking. And that poor guy, doing everything he was told by the terrorist, and never even knowing his kid was ok before he blew up.
So I went to the book club - it was pretty nice. I liked being able to discuss a book with people who have read it. I was the youngest person there, and they all seemed to be current or ex teachers, but still, it was nice. So I'm going to try it again next month.
Spoke with my mom some, my grandmother, the one who is a new widow is thinking of moving to NJ. It would be the first time that I actually lived near a grandparent, so I'd like that alot. I hope she does move here, though its a bit confusing that she'd want to. We thought she had lots of friends where she is.
hmm, planning for the Go Red event is going pretty good. So that's nice.
Oh I have tomorrow off from work so I can go to the Big Apple Con. Not alot of cool guests, but it will be nice to check out the vendors and stuff. And our Car insurance stuff came, still hideous, but less then last year which is good. Ok later all.

Sunday and Monday

First, very exciting, I exercised again today. I had stopped because of being sick, but the antibiotics are done, so this is the first day I did situps, walked and did my upper body exercises again. I'm so happy, I've hated taking the break because I really want to lose weight, and be in better shape. So now I'm getting back on track again.

ok, yesterday was not that exciting, the two big events were grocery shopping and the season premere of 24. Since I'm sure no one cares about my groceries - though it was a big deal I hadn't shopped really in 2 weeks - I'll tell you my thoughts on 24. In case you haven't watched, and are still planning on it, I'd stop reading now, in case I reveal deep involved secrets.

Ok, so Jack is back from China, President Palmer (the hot sexy dead pres' brother) made a deal to get him from China. So he could sell Jack to some guy who wants to kill him, in return for the location of a terrorist who is bombing all different cities in the US. There is a slimeball advisor who wants internment camps for muslims, and the president's sister (who is pretty hot herself) is married/involved with some muslim guy who runs an organization - like some happy, non-dangerous group, who is being targeted by the FBI. Jack gets free of the guy who wants to kill him, after learning he is actually in charge of the bombings, and the guy who he is turning over to the US government is here to stop the bombings. some stuff blow up. some surprises happen (yeah, tired of typing already).
So basically, lots of fun, Jack almost lost a finger, but does prove how "Mouse Guard" hardcore he is by gnawing a man to death. Lots of torture, and some more stuff blows up.

The nice thing is, Andrew and I have lots of fun trying to "guess" where the plot is going, and figure out who is the traitor in the inner circle this year and all that. We are guessing right now that Morris is the traitor, but its really early to tell. Every year I think they can't pull off another good season, but they've proved me wrong, so with any luck, this will be another good season.
And besides Kiefer Sutherland and DB Woodside are not hard on the eyes at all. The guys who play Fayed and Assad are both nice too look at as well, so even if the plot sucks this year, at least the eye candy is worth it.

Ok, have fun all.

Sigh I just realized I didn't talk about today at all. LOL. Today was not bad at work, lots of scanning and photocopying today. But I also did some work on the site's Go Red For Women's Health Day, which for us will be February 5, 2007 - its really Feb 2, but I'll be going to see my penguin that weekend. Officially, now I'm the actual "leader" of the event, which means I am the only person on my team - lol. I am organizing it, and today I met with someone from one of the diversity groups - Women's Leadership Initiative - to see if they will take part in the event. They agreed, so on the 23rd I get to present to their steering committee, which is always scary. But good. And it will look great for future jobs that I was incharge of this event. Since I have been looking lately, it would be nice.

Ok, thats really it, 2 more hours of 24 tonight! yay

Today

Well, I actually did stuff today. We went out to a gaming store to run a tournament for Legend of the Five Rings CCG Unfortunately no one showed up for it - its been slowing down in our area for awhile now. But we did pick up some new cards, which is cool. I also discovered that Prof is doing L5R art again, and most importantly he's doing ratlings again. I don't really care much about playing the game anymore, but I love the art work, and the ratlings are the best. :)
Then we went home for a bit, and went back out to get kitty litter. Then we went to a Korean Barbeque place, its one of the places where you have a grill in the middle of your table (not where the guy comes and throws things around), and they put flaming charcol in it and then cook it for you at the table. They also serve lots of weird veggies - like bean sprouts and sea weed, and some spicy cabbage stuff. Its alot of fun, and Andrew and I had a cool time. So it may not sound like much, but it was out of my house, and stuff to do with Andrew.
He's gone off now to play Ebberon with the group, I'm not playing in it, so I'm just gonna sit at home and watch tv. I should have a new episode of Law and Order to watch, and maybe I'll play some muppets. Or I'll just sit on the computer playing pogo games for awhile.
later all

I blame Degner

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4091636603923402551

I feel better

Still not perfect, but much much better finally. YAY!
Was hoping to go to the mall tonight, but now Andrew is telling me there might be really bad traffic, so he may end up being to late. maybe we can still go to bridgewater, I am sick and tired of being in this house, I really want to go somewhere. And I just realized I need a new pair of shoes, and I need a new bra.
It seem Marilyn Manson is getting a divorce, I can't imagine why anyone would marry him in the first place, but I guess people are weird.
24 Starts again next week, which is good, and there should be a new Law & Order tonight which will make me very happy. Also next week I think Psych starts again, I can't wait. yay new tv shows to watch.
Work wasn't bad, finished my year end report, so that is off my plate. hmm, hit my boring place again, so I guess I'm done.
Later

Hystricine

lol and if you don't know what it means - google it.

ok, so I read Discover Magazine - its a good way to keep up on what is going on in science, while not dealing with something written for scientists. I also read Time magazine and Us magazine, thus keeping up with current events and celebrities. LOL. There is a great article this month - called "Dude, where's my jetpack?" Its about technology that we ALMOST have but not quite, like flying cars and such.
For some reason though, when I went to the site for the magazine they only have last months issue posted. hmmm weird...

The other interesting stuff was about art Laura Splan who makes creep doilies that are representations of viruses - yucky. but very pretty. They have a picture in the magazine of HIV doilie...
Ok enough learning for the day - later

Hello

Ok, first off - hi Buni, I did miss you and was worried about you, I am glad that you are doing better. It would be nice if you did a blog.

Now - back to my thrilling life. lets see - started using myspace - wheee I have friends. or something. ok, that's it for that. But I guess if you are reading this, and have a myspace - invite me as a friend, or tell me and I'll invite you. or don't, that's all fine too.

Went to work today, and almost didn't need cough medicine. I think I pushed too hard when I went to the other building and carried back a box, so then I took some, but otherwise a good cough free day. which is always nice.
However, my job was boring today, was working on my Dec report - so its the big year end one. I do the metrics for my department, track how quickly we do our job, its not bad, but setting up the stupid report is mind numbing. and its not done yet either. LOL. its about 3/4 done though, so tomorrow I should be able to finish it.

I think I need another lamp in my living room, it seems dark, and everytime I try to take a pic with my new crap camera of my cats it doesn't have enough light to take the pic. Which is a bit annoying. So I guess I'll look for a new lamp at some point.

Auf Wiedersehen!

I blame Chuck

http://sfpg.com/animation/litebrite.html

And now for something different

Since I'm finally starting to feel betterish, I figured I'd write something different other then complaints.
of course I have no plan for what to write, so don't expect real exciting stuff here.

LOL - ok so Dave got me that muppets game for christmas, andrew and I have been playing it and unlocking the mini games. But the point here is Pepe ROCKS!!!! Pepe is that shrimp thing - I think that's what he is anyway, and he says the funniest things. My favorite, is when he gets money - We are wealthy rich peoples! We are wealthy rich peoples!

ok, so you don't care, but it cracks me up every time. LOL

Next week I get to go to the Big Apple Con, I'm excited about that, it will be nice to go out to NYC and check out the con. Then the next week is the gaming con, which will also be cool.
yeah, I'm a dork.

lets see. what else can I babble about? hmmmmmmmmm.

not really sure, guess I should stop writing now. LOL. later.

sigh still sick, tired of this

So I'm still sick, although I am starting to feel better. But now I've been coughing so hard and so much that I pulled a muscle in my side/chest and it hurts everytime I cough. BAH!!!!!!!
but hey what can you do? I am still going to work, and Andrew and I ran errands, and otherwise, I just sit at home going "don't cough, don't cough, ow ow ow, don't cough"

who wants to trade?

still yucky

so I finally went to the Dr. I'm still sick and feeling horrible, hopefully by monday I'll feel better.
Blah, Blah, Blah.
ok, later LOL

picture

here is one of those pictures where you have to focus your eyes special to see the picture:

Ok actually its Darla on the couch, which seems to match her rather well. LOL:

Sick

So I seem to have gotten a sore throat. and a fever. Yuck. made it through work yesterday, today is a day off, so I'm going to rest and try to get better. Its all annoying though, because I haven't been able to exercise I've felt so bad. I hate that.
In other news I found a book club for adults in Warren, so I'm going to try a meeting on the 16th. The first book is My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult. I got it yesterday, and finished it yesterday (yes I read that fast). Its a good book, well written, with kinda a stupid ending, though I understand why the ending was done. Its about a family who has a daughter who has leukemia, and they have a second daughter to use as a donor for the sick one (they also have a son). When the daughter is 13(the donor) her older sister has kidney failure, and she is expected to give up a kidney, so she gets a lawyer and sues for control over her body.
Its pretty deep and thought provoking - which to be honest isn't really the type of thing I enjoy reading, but once a month to have a chance to meet people, not a big deal. So we'll see how it goes.
hmm, all I have to say right now, so later all.

New Years Eve

Last night went well, I didn't get sick or anything which was nice, though I'm pretty beat today.
We went to a local hotel bar with our friends, and drank, hung out, made fun of the Dj, Danced (well I danced) for a few hours. Then at midnight Andrew and I kissed and then the group played balloon volley ball for awhile. It was loud, and the Dj was - not hideous, but didn't let songs finish before starting new ones ( and I mean, cutting at the 3/4 point in Paradise by the Dashboard Lights) which was disconcerting to say the least. Now its all raining and dreary out. sigh.
Well hopefully everyone had a great new year!
