Paul's b-day dinner
Category: food
On Sunday we went to dinner at Paul's parents with (e:mike) and (e:libertad) for Paul's birthday dinner. I didn't take any pictures but I don't think Ive ever been so full in my life. Paul's parents were so nice, I even sort of enjoyed playing Balderdash.

We saw this ridiculous show called in the Heat of the Night about this small town having a crack epidemic. it was so over the top and dramatic, need to find the next episode.

Mike's adventure
Category: drunk
(e:mike) decided to wrap himself in the rug to keep warm before he headed outside. The rug makes him look like some sort of snow witch.
He made it about 50 feet before falling in the snow.

Arduino New Years Ball
Category: programming

I fucking hate the Arduino. I spent a good chunk of yesterday trying to make the distance based LED ball for the ball drop, where the LEDs on it would change color as the ball got lower. Everything was working great until I had it all hooked up and on the ball, when the distance sensor died. I didn't bave time to try anythi g else, so instead I just had to used a lame preprogrammed pattern.

The LEDs looked cool but I am glad (e:mike) destroyed the ball for me.

Sorry for breaking the ball, it probably isn't that broken right?

Saddy Hardcore II
Category: going out
After work, while (e:paul) and (e:xandra) had their car/mall fiasco, (e:terry) and I went and got Ethiopian with (e:yesthatcasey). I loved the food at Gatur's.

Then after we went home, I had truffle cake before we hesded out again. We all went for margaritas for Caroline's birthday at Don Tequilas. The big matagarita tube was like drinking sugar syrup, so sick. Afterwards we were going to head to a house party, but an actual dog decided to upstag Paul after he heard about his Doggy hat.

We ended up at saddy hardcore night at Underground with (e:robert). It was still pretty fun, but I can't wait for real happy hardcore dancing at Ohm or Rainbow Rink next week.

The atmosphere was so romantic at Underground that Alex and Robert got engaged.
