Moving video about Prop 8

The Don't Divorce Us campaign...

Thanks to (e:Lauren), (e:FellyConnelly) and (e:) Vincent for hanging out at Nietzsche's last night. Zili Misik was INCREDIBLE! And as always, the Stripteasers were lots of fun.

driving, snow & sun

Look what I found at the coop! Not to name names...

I was stuck all day Sunday in the basement of the law school building at North Campus. A schoolmate gave me a ride back to Allen. My truck had been stuck all week on Irving Place...

(Truck on Friday 1/30)

... and I thought I'd try to get it unstuck since I had the assistance of the sun. Someone along Irving had left their snow shovel on the edge of the street so I borrowed it for a few minutes and freed my truck. (Thank you, parking gods!) Then I went for a ride before going to (e:Drew) & (e:Janelle)'s for spicy lentil dip, Hotels, beer, and Gilmore Girls. (e:Drew), (e:metalpeter), & (e:mrmike) wer very noisy in the other room, but I don't know what they were doing ;-) (e:jim), (e:james), (e:janelle) & i were quietly enjoying ourselves!

The ride was gorgeous. I went to that little bit of land that has the sewer plant on it and signs for Riverwalk. (Can anyone tell me its real name?) I should have grabbed my real camera - the angle of the sun was perfect.

I drove to school on Tuesday because... well, I guess I was feeling lazy and didn't want to take my big laptop on the metro. I pulled into the metered spots because I'd only be there 1.5 hrs and the lot was already full. Too bad the meters were all frozen! I left 3 quarters just in case the parking gods were no longer pleased with me.

My substantive classes start tomorrow. I'm dreading it because now I have to focus again, but I'm excited because it's stuff I'm more interested in and it'll be good to have a routine again. This semester I have property, contracts, and civil procedure & ethics. The property book starts with how the U.S. government justified taking all the land from the Native Americans. It really is shameful.

you need a title to publish

(e:tinypliny), it was so nice to see you this morning! Such a warm bright treat on a cold windy day. I wish I was going to keep taking that bus this semester!

I visited this foyer recently and wanted to share with (e:matthew)! I wish I had taken a couple more shots to show the detailing.

Now this is some Buffalove (seen outside Cafe 59 1/12):

The Inauguration Ale at Village Beer Merchant was $25.99/growler. Yikes! The guy said it was really good and that he really couldn't charge his usual markup for it - it would have been about $36.

This possum has been terrorizing my buddies Jill & Kelly at the office. They're afraid of it. Meanwhile, Jill's husband has been feeding it cat food. (more about oppossums:

tonight?

Anyone wanna hang out tonight? I'm here in Buffalo but I don't have enough schoolwork to keep me occupied.

james writes at 12:08:50 01/19/09 - Comment #44610: If I can convince a crowd of people to play I will invite you along for zombie near-fun.

theli writes at 11:57:31 01/19/09 - Comment #44608: Ahh. Don't think I've played that one yet.

james writes at 11:51:09 01/19/09 - Comment #44606: "Zombies!!!" by Twilight Creations. They also made an HP Lovecraft game.

theli writes at 11:39:44 01/19/09 - Comment #44605: Nice. There are some pretty good zombie boardgames out there. Which one did you play?

james writes at 03:17:15 01/18/09 - Comment #44587: It was fun hanging out heidi. Next time I promise we wont play that zombie game. Rather, I will use the zombie pieces to mod Risk. Can you escape the growing zombie pandemic to Australia?

heidi writes at 11:47:37 01/18/09 - Comment #44583: I won the complicated Zombie game! (Only because I had a special card that let me jump ahead of everyone else.)

Thanks for inviting me, (e:drew) & (e:janelle)! (e:jim) & (e:james) - always a pleasure!

Others - feel free to invite me to hang out sometime. I'm often alone more than what's good for me.

jim writes at 09:59:05 01/18/09 - Comment #44579: We also played a very complicated zombie game, that I did not win.

jim writes at 09:58:37 01/18/09 - Comment #44578: Heidi went with us to Drew and Janelle's where I kicked everyone's ass at scrabble! Wahoo! Go me!

vincent writes at 01:33:15 01/18/09 - Comment #44577: I'm sorry I just saw this now as well. I have been chilling at home due to the snowfall.

paul writes at 01:06:17 01/18/09 - Comment #44576: Sorry I just saw this now ;(

Puddle of poodles, music

Before I left Tioga County yesterday, A and I visited our friends Kell & Lori who happen to have two of Nisha's siblings (not littermates), Cooper and Buster Brown. Everyone needs more poodles.

Nisha and Buster Brown very similar in coloring (he's a couple shades lighter), size and shape.

Buster Brown and Nisha

Buster Brown, Cooper and Nisha

(Nisha needs a haircut bad!)

(Just so it's clear that I do things other than take pix of my pets... )

A's new band had a gig New Years Eve. It was the first time I had heard them play out and I was tickled by what they've accomplished since I left in August.
