Post Thanksgiving
This year was another smashing success. That's why I'm mainlining coffee and I look like this:

  • Update: I've just consumed 6, yes 6, cups of coffee. I'm interested to see how my body reacts to this.

You will just need to drink a lot of water as well, unless you are asking for a UTI later this month.

Feds warn of terror plotting against NYC
Feds warn of terror plotting against NYC subways
By EILEEN SULLIVAN and DEVLIN BARRETT

WASHINGTON (AP) â€" Federal authorities are warning law enforcement personnel of a possible terror plot against the New York City subway system during the holiday season.

An internal memo obtained by The Associated Press says the FBI has received a "plausible but unsubstantiated" report that al-Qaida terrorists in late September may have discussed attacking the subway system.

Anti-terror agencies say they have no specific details to confirm the plot has moved "beyond aspirational planning," but are issuing the alert out of concern that an attack could come during the holiday season," warns the memo, which is dated Tuesday.

While federal agencies often issue all sorts of advisory warnings, the language of this one is particularly forceful.

  • I can't wait to take the train home. I wondered what was up- the trains have been swarming with cops lately.

Avoid the tube? :)

The TSA was at University Station Monday or Tuesday. ew.

All these reports ever do is make for more neuroses and unnecessarily concern. A pipe burst on Madison and given the size of the burst, people in my sister's office thought they were under attack. They were....from sewage.

Winter Tomatos make me sad
All summer I dreaded this day. The day when I cut open a tomato and saw the mealy whiteness that is a winter tomato..

Haha, I actually like them, they are more chunky. :)
I miss the taste of tomatoes from home, though. Every vegetable is kind of bland here and tastes the same.

That is the reason I used to hate tomatoes.

I believe that children are our future
I always knew that someday all the time and effort I put into lilho would pay off. Over the years I've provided her with lots of trips and extravagant gifts. Honestly I did it because she is my sister and I love her and she's a lot of fun. But also I knew it was an investment in my future. Turns out that was a good bet and it's paying off.

She bought my Mom this Grand Canyon Train trip for Christmas and included a ticket for me (as my gift). She didn't skimp either. It's all first class travel for the Ho women.

AND

She just lent me the money to buy a ticket to Buffalo for New Year's. That's right bitches the Ho sisters are rocking Linwood like it's 1999.

Oh maybe I should have mentioned this to Paul. Um Paul I'm going to Buffalo for New Year's. Can I crash at your mansion? okthxbi.

And also Sarah needs a place to stay too.

Hearts,
Boobers

Halloween '08
It's almost Thanksgiving and I'm just now getting around to my pictures from Buffalo. If that bothers you then you should probably stop reading my blog (sorry if that is snippy, but it's Monday).

image
Jetblue's shiny new terminal where the beer taps don't work and mixed drinks are $10 a pop.

image
Sushi is an option- if you can afford it.

image
Day of the party we run errands. Last stop WEGMANS. For anyone who cooks it's like grocery porn. Before we shop, we feast on $1.99 gelatto.

image
After the gelatto Paul and TK were no where to be found. Terry and I finished up the shopping. This entire cart of food came to $200. I almost died everything was so inexpensive.

image
One thing I really miss about grocery shopping is riding the cart.

image
Surprise, Surprise look who we found hanging out in the car. Looks like too much errand running tuckered the boys out.

And for the grand finale the two pictures I took at the party:

image
Mike and his nemisis

image
And Mike again, licking a candy shot glass looking hot and drunk.

This trip was like most of my trips filled with good times and no pictures to remember it. These are literally the only pictures I took the entire time.
tinypliny - 11/26/08 21:01
Haha, those are some fun photos. :)
metalpeter - 11/24/08 19:23
I had no idea there where shot glasses made of candy, awesome!!!!
lilho - 11/24/08 13:32
i think those pictures sum of your trip very well. chores with terry, paul eating treats and then being lazy, and mike being drunk and scantily clothed. oh buffalo!!!!
