i got done part of what i was supposed to. i started the painting, just the layout. i am so mad, i went to grab a blank canvas from my stock and there is a huge tear in it. i had to use a much smaller canvas. :(
i downloaded the fray album for 1.98. wooo who! now i'll have something to put on my mp3 player when i get it for xmas..
i spoke to my cousin and my friend it sounds like things are coming together for meeting up in the early evening for dinner in tribecca saturday..
i also booked a flight to england for my internet challenged friend MK. we're going over for my bday. i am sooo excited i could pee.
here is the video i shot last weekend of HEK singing rob bases It takes 2.
ps.. i am 8 posts away from my 500th post to the RB News.

back to reality
oh, there goes rabbit, he....
anyway... my stint in boston was actually 25 hours instead of 24. but i managed to do most of what i set out to do..
i left my home at 8am saturday to meet with MK for breakfast in schenectady. we went to a classy little diner near missy's house. and by classy i mean the kind where you walk from your car and pass by a SEA of vomit... i'm just glad it wasn't mine. i almost added to it though as studied it trying to figure out what it was. i vowed to photograph it on our way out, but the waitstaff had hosed it down by the time we left. :(
MK is looking into coming with me to london. :) cross your fingers.
then i went on my way to waltham. i forgot to call lk ahead of time, but figured she'd be back from the grocery store she was going to at noon. i guess 3 hours wasn't enough time, so i happily sucked internet off a neighbor and caught up on some of my internet browsing till she returned.
we chit chatted and then went to the party. i love the improvements rich and angela have made to their house. its really quite awesome, and to think that they have done the entirety of it by themselves... what an accomplishment.
sunday was another jam packed day.. bright and early we headed out to a fancy brunch. it was more eclectic than it was fancy. see my photos of the place in the photo album. after a lazy brunch we made our way over to the ICA. the line was BLOCKS long and after standing in line to get the free tickets, there was a waiting corral. but the ambiance was very conducive to taking some artsy photos.. which are also in the album.
because we forwent the ICA, i was able to leave town about 430.. but because i am retarded and was a few miles from dedham before i realized i was going the wrong way i really didn't start getting out of town till more like 5, i missed amazing race. thank god for DVR...
so. this week seems like its going to be just as jam packed as the last one. possibly a free movie tonight, beer club tomorrow, drawing wednesday, and friday i am hoping to leave work early so we can get to nyc at a decent time. plus somewhere in there i need to get my xmas shopping started, and an xmas painting started. ugh. not enough hours in the day!

boston-bound..
i decided to make my trip to boston a 24 hour event.. i need another recovery day from the xmas party so i am driving out tomorrow morning..
as for my sad news, my coworker has decided to leave our company and go to a new company. seeing as i sit so close to him, i hope his replacement is as worthy..
here are the rest of my pics from the work party in case you want to see some of my new coworkers...
my roommates got new phones. they are copy-cats and got the same ones as me.
we are getting feedback on our new site... its kind of exciting...

such a slacker...
i've been a blog slacker lately.. everyone else's blog laziness must be rubbing off on me..
i was so hungover at work today i threw up in the bathroom. that was a first. i have never thrown up at work (i don't think)... it was about 2pm before i felt better.
this weekend i am going to boston for a housewarming party and some friend visits. i'm really looking forward to it.
it snowed here and my car slipped all over the road. i really should look into getting an element before i get in a car accident and my car is worth nothing.
i am beyond tired, i should go to bed and watch survivor from my bed.
i am afraid that i am going to have some sad news to report tomorrow. but i'll wait till i know for sure.
here are a couple of pics from last night.
wfischer throwing the fisticuffs
i'm drunk, and someones wearing a yellow tie.
happy birthday to me...
*** note...i started this last night when i was drunk. ****
so... always thinking of myself and my date of birth, i booked my flight to england this morning. i am going on the 17th and coming back on the 26th. i hope we can meet up with RS at some point.
moving on to real tactical things... i had my "annual" exam today. i have not needed a urine exam in YEARS... apparently today was the day. i peed before i met the nurse, so i had to wait and pee after the exam.. i didn't really have to pee, so i tried real hard...and then i dropped the cup into the toilet. :( i was worried the nurse would be so mad, but she really didn't care..
tonight was my xmas party. bfischer gave me a ride home despite his living right next to where we were. i have hella pictures, i'll upload them...
***this was about the time i passed out i think, cause this is all i had ***

god damn black ice...
after working late today i headed over to the store i should have my paycheck forwarded to, kohls. i should mention that i had to scrape the ice and snow off my car... so i jump out of the car, head towards the store and i get to the end up the car by the trunk and fall on my face. i had to lay down on the ground to make sure i was okay. my knee is all scraped up, and my right palm is going to have a killer bruise. :(
tonight there were 6 deer in the backyard. it looked like 2 adult females and 4 babies. i am kind of shocked at how much their tails were like dogs tails. they are long and they wag them like dogs. so strange...
i can't find red tights anywhere... god damn it!

beer party is on tap...
mrs fischer and i are going to a 12 beers of xmas party that someone from the beer club is putting on. i'm sure it will be a good time. last night i went to the fischers house to sample the fat angel they have on tap on their new keg-a-rator. it was niiiice... we then played some yahtzee. good times were had by all.
cath and i went shopping again today to use our free kohls dollars. i got a new shirt for our xmas party coming up this week, some new bras and a couple stocking stuffers..
this next coming week is the beginning of a very busy month for me. next week i have my holiday party, then next weekend i have a party to attend in boston. the following week is the final beer club meeting of the year, then my roommates and i are going to NYC, then christmas is upon us. i have a feeling this month is going to fly by..
