Limerick!
I thought it would be fun to collect silly limericks and see what happened. Tonight Bryan decided to write one in Spanish. It's the first time I've seen one in Spanish ( Read more... ) -
Is this a dream or am I really here?
Despite the fact that I got very little sleep last night and the night before(I'm never good at sleeping in new places) so far, I like San Francisco! Strange though, it does feel more like a dream. This place isn't real yet. Or maybe that's just the lack of sleep ( Read more... ) -
Leaving, on a jet plane....
I'm almost done packing. Just a few details left and then I should be ready to go. I almost can't believe it ( Read more... ) -
SKATING HIGH, WHEEEE!
I had my first lesson with my new coach this morning, (who is also the director of my skating school, so my skating boss) and it was great! I wasn't terribly excited about the getting up early and sitting in traffic part, but once I was at the rink, it was great ( Read more... ) -
Strange pattern...
Why is it that when I get myself in some kind of trouble, I'm usually with Tomtom? Last weekend, the two of us were happily walking around his little neighborhood in Minneapolis, and somehow, though I only took it out of my purse once, and Tomtom watched me carefully zip it back into my purse, I lost my wallet! Aaarrgh! And this was only about a ( Read more... ) -
New kitchen and found money
Management decided the kitchens in my building should be updated, so yesterday they gave me new cabinets and a new countertop. I came home last night and found not only the new kitchen, but an envelope taped to the bedroom door. In it was a $100 savings bond I didn't know I had! I had long thought I cashed out all the savings bonds I had back ( Read more... ) -
Wheee! Doh! Whee!
Ok, so since the IRS gave me back $600 of my money this week, and I had already nearly paid off the laptop, and the trip to Cali is coming up soon, it was time to finally buy some digital music gadgetry. Much as I want a Zune, it's a bit too high right now, so I decided I'd get something nice, but less spendy. The Zen stone looked good, until I ( Read more... ) -
OMG SUSHI!
Since we discovered a new sushi place at the other end of town from work last week, I've been there twice, and am eating more sushi again today. So Manda went to pick it up today, and they were already incredibly busy. We decided on splitting a platter, and WOAH! It's about double what I was expecting, so I'm sitting here at my desk with a ( Read more... ) -
California, here I come! (with new shoes)
When I get on that plane for San Francisco, it'll be just two months shy of six years since the last time I had a trip, or any kind of vacation, for that matter. So I'm going to have one heck of a trip, dangit! I've been planning for months, and it's so exciting that it's getting close. It's not too early to make preparations ( Read more... ) -
Gah!
So last week I decided to see if some old online friends were still around. So I looked up the old mud that I thought was dead, and was surprised to find a group of them were there! I hadn't planned any actual playing, and since Vista seemed dead set against letting me telnet for some reason, I downloaded putty instead. I've connected to that ( Read more... )
