CA vacay

Just got back from vacation with my youngest brother. More to come on all our antics soon!

La-La Land

Going to LA in mid-June, and I've never spent any time there (besides the airport) - so I'm excited for the adventure. I'm even more excited to be visiting my younger brother; we're going to have fun!

What to do while we're there? That's still up-in-the-air, and I'd like suggestions. Restaurants, hiking trails, sight-seeing spots, Santa Barbara, and sun - I'm eager to hear from you!

Point me in the right direction and post away people!

New Year Magic!

NYE IN NYC
Chris and I ventured out with boozed-filled thermos cannisters to Times Square around 9pm. We left in a sprightly state with every intention of getting a little tipsy, but not too messed up. Well - by midnight, you be the judge...



The night's lowlights:
-Getting kicked out of Rudy's bar
-Allison falling
-Allison swearing that her wrist was broken (later at home - putting a frozen chicken tariyaki on it to prevent swelling)
-Some guy doing a tequila "stuntman" shot - in which he snorted a line of salt, drank the shot, and squeezed lime juice in his eye - then ate the entire lime with the rind
-Some guy buying us WAY TOO MANY "duck fart" shots - amaretto, crown, and kahlua
-Chris trying to reenter bar we just got kicked out of
-Cab ride with strangers
GOOD VIBES
I have a really good feeling about 2007 - don't know why, but I just do.
Some things I'd like to do in the New Year:
1) give up tabs
2) spend more time writing for fun, not for work
3) take an artsy class
