Wowser I love today!
Well first of all it was super dead at work and it was glorious but MORE TO THE POINT! I love it because today being the day before Thanksgiving and this being Buffalo, TONIGHT IS LIKE THE BIGGEST PARTY NIGHT OF THE YEAR! I love it cuz so many people are home and out. Like you just can run into so many people , it is really fun. I really want to go to chippewa I tihnk cuz it gets so crazy busy and fun but like none of my friends want to go there so I don't know, But it really it is the center of the party! We'll see. Hopefully I will see lots of people. Too bad the weather is not cooperating, maybe it iddn't get the memo that tonight is so importnat. The weather causes some hinderance to the hop around from place to place fun...have fun everyone!

Just so everyone knows I saw a bunch of Limos last night there was this Giant long black one, but no one invited me in, not that anyone would be crazy enough to ask someone they don't know to climb in.

all is have to say is waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. i want party. :O(
jenks - 11/21/07 22:56
yeah, i'm in RI, and buffalo friends who don't realize I'm gone keep calling and asking me to go out... and when I say I'm not in town, they ask if I'm going out... but here, it's totally not a going out night. It's a "stay in and see your family" night. Which is so different... I'm writing this from a laptop in bed. At 11.

Yeah Chrimstas Post II
So I actually have gotten a little christmas shopping done. Like I didn't plan it , I was really mostly shopping for myself was my plan but I bought a few things and got some ideas. Though a couple I am not really sure about. I don't relaly like getting people gift certificates or tihngs they specifically asked for. I know that is what people like but I like to find tings they may not have thought of getting themselves but I feel like they would like. The tihng is that can go terribly wrong. So we'll see. I figure they can always return it! I love buying things in big boxes cuz it just feels like you accomplished something. Like carrying around a huge bag just feels like you got something accomplished in your shopping expedition even if that one thing relaly is ntohing in comparison to like 10 smaller things you could have got. I don't know why. I guess I am a total sucker for retail....
tinypliny - 11/18/07 12:20
I have trouble buying anything. I often spend long minutes convincing myself the sheer worthlessness of whatever I have in my shopping cart. Just as I am leaving the shop, I run back to the parent aisle and put it back. Then I come out and see all these people who have, as you put it, "accomplished something". Yeah, you have suckers like me envying you. The bigger the bag, the more intense is my envy. LOL

But you know, even if did manage to buy something, I refuse plastic bags and cram it in my backpack. Alas, I don't think I have ever had the satisfaction of inciting shopping-bag-envy!

I would rather have something I didn't ask for.

Most Wonderful Time Of The Year
So not one but TWO radio stations are started playing 24 hour Christmas....i mean holiday music yesterday (though I have yet to hear a kwanzaa or chanukah song on them?) anywho...while I don't love that the stores are all christmas decorated already I do love the radio stations playing christmas music! I SERIOUSLY LOVE IT TO DEATH! I am a freako that loves my christmas music. But actually lots of people must. Last year there was an article about how so many radio stations playing chrismtas (oops holiday) music so early that people must not be listening but in fact all data shows ratings go up for stations that play 24 hour holiday music! I seriously love it! Especially the power ballady christmas songs like Oh Holy Night and what not! That is one of my favoritos. I also love Mamacita, donde esta santa clause? But you guys proly never heard that one because I believe it was an exclusive Eckerd radio selectio ntha tme and some of my coworkers fell in love with last year. !! YEAH!!!!!!!

Having grown up in a family of florists, and now working in a church, I do not like Christmas. Christmas is stress, and commercial, and annoying, until Christmas eve. Than it is AWESOME.
tinypliny - 11/17/07 11:40
OWhich radio sations are these??? I love Christmas Songs too. I take it a step further and listen to them all through the year. Hee Hee.

And I now simly have to listen to Mamacita, donde esta santa clause - was it like a Tierra Santa parody or something?

I lost my glasses
OMG I lost my freakin glasses. I took them off in lab to put on my goggles and put them on my jacket so I COULD NOT FORGET THEM! AND I FORGOT THEM! WHICH also means I prolly flung them somewhere when I put on my jacket on which they were lying. I went back to the lab but they weren't anywehre and I left my name in case anyone finds them but we seriosuly searched everywhere I doubt they are there! THIS SUCKS MAJOR! they are so frekain expensive and now my ins prollywon't pay for them cuz I just got them in august.
lilho - 11/17/07 12:03
yea, wheres your count! peaches?
tinypliny - 11/17/07 11:31
I am so sorry! I hate losing stuff I really like. Sometimes I think we ought to have tracking microchips for our most favourite things so we can track their location via satellite. And for keys, I have misplaced keys more times than I can count. If I had all those minutes I have spent looking for keys, I would have an extra year in my life.
