Indian!!!! I love Indian food! biggrin
betodyke:
Lets see there is all kinds of good food to pick from. Bombers (Albany) has the worlds greatest and biggest burritos. They also make a pretty mean margarita. New Yorker Pizzeria (Troy) has to die for calzones, and there is about 20 or so of them to choose from. The best part is they all have mobster based names. Those are the two places that I've been liking the most lately.

My resolution was to come up with a really good resolution for next year. I figure that gives me a whole year to think of one. And this snow is driving me crazy. I had to drive over the 19th street bridge today. Boy was that fun. And let me know you, Watervliet needs to learn to plow their freaking road. I was all over the place. But then again, the roads where that much better in Troy. Ahhhh winter time, fun stuff. Got to love it. whatever

i don't get people...why can't they be more considerate? i live in an apartment where there are shared clothes facilities. you have to pay for them, which is fine, but why the hell don't people clean up after themselves?? seriously, how much can it take to clean out the freakin lint trap.

i know, i know...i shouldn't let such trivial things get to me. there...

hope ya'll had a nice thanksgiving. I had a pretty good one, different but good. I say different because my grandfather is currently in a nursing home for rehab on his legs. He's doing well though, which is fantastic. He's still got his sense of humor and his will to get the hell out of there ASAP. Anyway, that was a side note... We had...

this weekend is going ok, aside from the POURING rain... bleh.... i know how you feel - im the queen of akward... blackeyed
poetik:
I think you had a great Thanksgiving. The way I look at it though, whether a holiday retains its true meaning doesn't depend on the holiday but on the people celebrating it... and as we all know most people take direction from TV, ads and whatever other stupid source, so they lose sight of what matters... That was my rant biggrin

give thanks that this is only a three day week. I'm tired, I don't want to work anymore, I need a vacation...a long one!

a friend/coworker of mine said something interesting to me the other day, he was complaining about work and I said, it could always be worse. he said, "i've always found that comment interesting...it could be worse, you could be dead. haha"...

You're right. Life is bullshit. Yet everytime I contemplate suicide, I opt to stick around a little longer. It's almost like life's a bad movie, but I still want to see how it ends...

Do you know it took me about half an hour to figure out to how to update my journal? Either I'm REALLY slow, or you're right and this could all be a little more user-friendly smile

Don't worry about spellings though. Your spelling mistake give your words character!
betodyke:
I can understand why you would like Troy better than 'Vliet. There isn't a single thing to do there, unless you count getting in trouble. I'm surprised, I never got caught with the things I did. So, what did you go to RPI for? It's such a great college. And you have to be really smart to get into it.

I live right over the Hudson from you. And I use to live in Watervliet, maybe I already know you.... I wonder.
poetik:
Thanks for the symapthy man! smile

To answer your question, my whole thing agaisnt the holidays is the hype. The thing is that I'm single, and not close to my family, so I don't really look forward to the holidays, when I have to either spend time with relatives that I don't have much in common with, or stay home and feel like a loser... and the hype only reinforces my feelings of alienation. And thanks to the greedy corporate marketing plans, it's all starting earlier... But I'll survive. After all, I've made it through all these years smile

By the way, I don't have any friends either! You can be my friend. smile ANd you're right. I hate top 5 lists, or anything that asks you to prioritize stuff. I love it all! I can't pick favorites!
