Jeez.

Merry New Years' Day!  It's been 3 hours so far, and a pretty good three hours at that.  I'm looking forward to starting this decade off 1000000% better than the last decade, and it's been pretty much a hit so far.  I mean, 10 years ago, I was *almost* having an orgy (don't ask), but since that didn't happen, and what DID happen happened, I'm definitely happier with where I am than where I was.

Time to look forward and embrace what I have.  Time to reach for what I want.  Time for super cheesy-ness.  Fuck off, cynics.  I'm getting up early to make breakfast nachos for my guests.  First I have to grocery shop. Eff.

Sleep time!  Xoxo!

 

it's the Chrismas season!

Hey there!

It's the Christmas season.  Dinner for 24 was great, and now it's time to move into Christmas time prep full-time.  I have yet to buy tickets home, but that'll happen this week.  I have no idea whether I'm going to NYC yet, but I'm doubting it somehow.  Just not seeming like it's in the cards for this holiday season.

Non-Thanksgiving-related weekend highlights:

  • Watched the RNRHOF concerts last night on HBO at Joel's house, and among the attendees were Charlie from the Counting Crows and Tal who's on bass for Jeff Beck. She didn't accept my friend request on Fb, though.
  • took a couple of pics for my tattoo book this weekend - go me.  I really like taking pictures.  Time to schedule another shoot or two.
  • started building my workbench. i indend to finish today and start on the Prompter area organizer.  I'll get the garage done if it kills me.

That's it for now.  I really have to do pictures today, too.  Effin' pictures.

edit:
A couple of CNN Heroes pix after the break.

Thanksgiving's almsost here!

Yay!

I'm cooking for 24, and I'm nervous!  Two turkeys at a time in the oven might affect its cooking time, which could be problematic. I'm not sure how I'll fit everything that needs to cook before and after the turkey is cooking... I need to get my shit together and come up with a plan, man, a plan.

Anyway, today is all logistics, putting tables together, setting places, finding the right balance of crazy and not-crazy....  I'm not even sure I have enough silverware.  Jeez.

Anyway, I wish all of you guys were coming here, too, although I don't know where you'd sit, honestly.  Fun times. Keep your fingers crossed that I can get set up and then cleaned up without going too insane, and that things go generally well.

Happy Thanksgiving.  See you on the other side.
