So, currently battling a cold I picked up on the last day in Winnipeg. Blah.
However, the trip was great. Trixel's sister and fiance were a lot of fun to hang out with and her mom and I got along just fine.
I surprised Trixel with a massage and pedicure for her birthday. The spa at the Fort Garry Hotel where we stayed was awesome....

So, arrived safe and sound in Winnipeg. Trixel and I took a bit of a walk in the chill downtown air to get dinner. Now, when I say 'chill' I think what I really mean is 'holy fuck I think my eyeballs are going to shatter in their sockets'. With the wind chill at night, that's about -15 to -20 below zero. And that's not...

urblueygrl:
hope your having a great time 
So, just got back from Sexybeast's Mardi Gras / Birthday party. He and his lovely wife urblueygrl are the ultimate hosts, putting out enough food, drink and party favors for three party's worth of fun. They're what the kids call 'good peeps.'
I had a wonderful time, even though I'm currently dry-docked. I decided three weeks ago to lay off the booze for at...

trixel:
got new hair! off to the vets! 
Regrets...I've had a few.
Some monumental ones as of late...and yet none of them has been truly detrimental to me. But they could have been. Thank the lucky stars, right?
(And now I shall try to get out of my maudlin and cryptic phase and go buy some warm underpants for my visit to Winnipeg in 17 days.)

yay! trip to trix! how grand!
you know, finding nice, non-synthetic warm underwear is surprisingly challenging. maybe it is my location, but i can't imagine california is brimming with canada appropriate undergarments.
yes, regrets - they can actually be weirdly good things - depending. glad yours aren't crushing. may all changes lead to bigger and brighter things.

Warm underpants sound like a good idea. I wish I had warm underpants this week. It was 7 degrees one night! Brrrrr!
Trispiral is wise.

So, had a work meeting last night. Afterward we started playing the board game 'Arkham Horror.' It was windy as fuck last night (which I believe is the correct meteorlogical term) and no sooner had rawr_ima_monster been sucked into the Other World and lost his sanity...the power went out.
So, out came the candles and we stayed up till 4am trying to finish the damn...

So, SGLA had a monthly shindig at the White Horse in Hollywood. Cool little divey place. However, I was the first one there (as is my wont.) As a result, the bartender made me touch the divot in his skull and tell me not to be an organ donor. (Apparently he was in a terrible accident and was in a coma for a month...trust me...I...

thank you so much.
So, watched the Golden Globe Awards over at my friend Mike's house. He works on TV shows people have heard of, unlike my time in TV.
In one of those strange ways of the world, Mike has worked for the two Showrunners who spoke for the best TV Comedy and Drama ('Desperate Housewives' and 'Lost').
And as I relate to the story, I interviewed for...

It was a pleasure meeting you tonight! Thank you for the drink. I do hope I get to see you again soon!
So, just drove the bosses to LAX. They left First Class to Hong Kong. Meanwhile, I just cleaned up a load of cat crap (non-binding I might add) cause kitty missed the litter box by an inch. They're drinking Dom. I'm eating stale graham crackers.

So, the bosses are headed off to Hong Kong this Sunday for a week to meet with the team making the game. I will be watching the cats. For a week. Lord help us both.
In the meantime, lots of work to do.

So, drove to a meeting tonight on the route to Pasadena I always take and I've never noticed you could see the Rose Bowl from the freeway. It was lit up like crazy for well...the Rose Bowl. Full of spotlights and blimps and such. Go figure.
I'm also not one for college sports at all, but holy crap the game was really good.

I want to see the bodyworlds exhibit at some point.

thank you. I did.
-M & L had no idea that I used to live in Burbank and was now moving to Hollywood. They thought it was the other way, or didn't think about it or whatever. I found that out last night and it really surprised me, though I'm not sure why it should have. I just thought they knew where I lived...wierd.
