I just about burned the pasta....daaaamn.

So C's been blogging alot lately and I feel like I've been a let down to all who may ACTUALLY read this. I don't know who that is, but hey...

Christine hung her stocking by the chimney with care, waiting for M-peg's sock to join it there...I really must dig out my stocking(s) so I can hang it too. I'm starting to get excited for Christmas. I want the tree and the decorations and the cookies and the people. Games night it is. I have a hankering for my best friends to come over and do what we do best. Be silly. I miss those times when just the girls came over and we did stupid things like burn cookies, haha. So we must set it up soon. Cookies and decorations...then the boys can come over for games night and wine and to eat said cookies (and decorations?? Prolly. Haha. Ya'll haven't met the boys...)

Last year...man, I can't believe there's a "last year" already. When did that happen?? But LAST YEAR...we had these big plans to take Christmas pics and to send out Christmas cards. It didn't happen. This year, we shall make it happen!! I really want to and if we don't we'll have to wait a whoollllle other year! Can't have that. I want to take that pic. Maybe we'll do that this week. Yes.

Watching the Strombo. Now on the main CBC network...the best time slot for me really, 11pm. Right when I should be going to bed, but just can't bring myself to do so because I'm too restless. Right when I COULD be watching Jon Stewart (and sometimes do), but would rather be watching George because he informs me of all the things I never pay attention to...and he makes me laugh while doing so. Not to mention I'm always the eager beaver to see how many combinations of black and red one man can pull off. Love it.

I'm too lazy to post photos like C-spot. But I will post this:

My friend Mat's article(s)...which I believe is a new weekly occurance. The boy cracks me up and is a wealth of both useless and useful knowledge. He's an adventure guide with a wicked sense of humor and strange taste in collectibles...but he'll make sure you don't get eaten out on the trail. Check it out.

I just added a weird array of music to my new Sandisk Sansa. (Thanks, Santa! You came early this year, and unlike most girls...I'm not offended by that.) The list includes the Dixie Chicks (Travelling Soldier), a punk band fronted by my creepy friend Kevin named Kamakazinight (Roses Over Me), Carbon Leaf (the whole of disc 1 from 5 Alive!) and some Feist (cause I'm alllll about Inside and Out right now.) I think I have a pretty electic taste in music and I wouldn't have it any other way. I believe in giving everyone a chance and seeing the musical talent in those that deserve it, even if you aren't really "into" the type of music they produce. I like it loud somedays, celtic and bouncy others and lame and girlie yet another day. Or all in the same day.

So it's time to shit or get off of here...I mean. Get off the pot. Isn't that the saying? I say 2007 is the year to get my shit together and actually try to make something. Whether it be unrecognized art that I really believe in and at least put my heart into, or rockin photos of boys playing music that people actually get to see. It's time to get in there and do something I at least feel strongly about. I feel like the year that I set out to just "be" here has come and gone and now it's time to ask myself why I'm here at all and what am I going to do about it? I thought I needed a partner, and maybe that would make it easier and more fun (and for once I'm not talking about someone to cuddle with...I mean a "business" partner)...but maybe I need to make this happen for myself. I just wish I didn't feel like I was jumping off the mountain face first without a parachute.

What does the adventure guide say about that in his article?



Prob wouldn't say don't jump......just make do with what you've got and be prepared.



Pinhole camera here I come.



This weekend on the agenda, assuming I'm actually well and this isn't a 'non-sick' phase....the aforementioned Kamakazinight is playing PUNK 340 and my favorite pair of brothers is doing their thing down at the Lions Club...not to mention there's a bet to be settled at our favorite hang out and we're dying to see who wins. The players have multiplied and the stakes are high. Hehe...there will be photos. I promise.
