and after all my excitement...I missed out on most of the estrip festivities. Thank you to my esecret Santa for my gift card. It will be well spent! I ended up going downtown to see a friend I haven't seen in awhile. I would have put up more of a fight to stay at Linwood but one was the DD! So we ended up at Soho for the actual countdown, and then drove down to Fredonia to meet up with some people down there. I don't remember most of being at Linwood, SoHo, or the drive down to Fredonia (during which I drank classy boxed wine and also fell asleep...it's a long drive for a drunky!). But I had a pretty good night. Wish I could have been at PMT's more, as I said, but I trust it was a great time anyway!!!! Here's a couple pics from my evening. It's not from my camera though. Get this. The memory card in my digital camera was missing when i woke up in the morning. Isn't that weird? And a little creepy? And also annoying...those suckers aren't cheap! Anyway, onto photos!
laura, me and nicole (two of my best friends from Fredonia) at SoHo

oh i definitely agree that PMT's was probably more fun and I'm sad I wasn't there for it. Can't wait for the next get together!!!

as fun as that seems, the ball drop from (e:pmt) 's living room was prolly more fun... looks like you weren't lacking for smiles and cheers though.

here i go again on my ownSo here I am, a Saturday night at 10:30, sitting on my bed wearing pajama pants. Sometimes I think I should be depressed when these kind of nights occur. After all, I could be downtown with Mike at a Naughty by Nature show (which I thought he was joking about when I texted him earlier). But since I already spent oodles of money this evening on dinner and bowling with a couple other friends, let alone the past 2 months, I thought I would save a few bucks tonight.
It's wierd how much I look forward to having time off, but then when I actually have it, I don't know what to do with it. I have soooo many things I could think about for school but, ehh, it's supposed to be free time! I don't know.
Maybe I'm a little depressed...I know it's not the end of the world to be by yourself on a weekend night. And I could probably call other people but we always all call Mike to see what's going on; the rest of us hardly ever call each other. It has been this way for years; why stop now? However, it usually results in nights like these.
Never mind the fact that I'm one of like, two single friends that I have.
Well I'm babbling. These entries always feel like they are more appropriate for livejournal rather than here, but I don't have a livejournal. And I don't really want one.
Can't wait for Christmas, and I REALLY can't wait for New Years at my favorite Linwood mansion.
And hey, if you're free tonight, let me know. The pajama pants haven't completely killed my urge to party tonight... :)

yah. it can be hard when you're used to having people, or a particular someone around, then suddenly you find yourself home alone on a weekend night. it's cool though. we need that. maybe you didn't plan for a night alone, but use it to pamper yourself, or sit on your ass doing nothing. i usually end up cleaning like a maniac when i don't know what to do with myself. paint your nails, soak in a bath, do some yoga, eat cheese, paint, cook, read...whatever floats your boat. that is the bonus of being single. you can do whatever YOU like!

Naughty By Nature the band? Or is that the type of party it was? sometimes it is better to sit home and just relax and be away from all the crazzyness.

forks on a chalkboard, maybe?
funny, that doesn't bother me in the slightest. But digging in the sand with my hands... like really scraping and getting it under my nails... shudder. I don't know how I ever made sandcastles as a kid.
whats the whosit about cottonballs ?
had to pull apart cotton balls once when i was little to make these santa clauses out of milk cartons. i remember having to pull apart the cotton balls to make the beard, eyebrows etc. i shudder just thinking about it. ahhhh!
A question, but maybe this is just me - why would anybody pull apart cotton balls?
interesting theory mrmike, but i would be willing to bet that pulling apart dry cotton balls would be worse. however, i can't handle testing that theory, so let's agree to disagree.
Target? on my way there myself
sure, there is...wet cotton balls
