Saturday, December 18th, 2004[Entry 241]all my people...
right here, right now...Yeah, so I guess I should catch up in here, huh?
Yesterday was our work Christmas party. It was really nice. It was at a hall (during work hours). While the food wasn't very vegetarian friendly, there was fettucini alfredo. While I'm not a fan, I had some anyway because I was starving...and it was actually really damn good. And me and Laura ate about 400 brownies. They were so good. I need to find out if the hall made them or if they were purchased from somewhere for the party. Mmmm!
Afterwards, we all went straight (well not really straight because I carpooled to the hall...so we had to go back to work to get our cars) to Fifth Avenue in Royal Oak for an "after party." Haha it was the greatest! Our maintance guy picked up our tab. It was a freaking hell of a good time! We were there for a longass time, too. Not everyone stayed the whole time...the "youngins" stayed late. It was really awesome to get to know some of my co-workers that I don't normally have a chance to talk to on a day-to-day basis. It confirmed I work with a bunch of cool people.
When I came home, I was ready to jump through the roof because my new iSkin had arrived for my iPod. It kicks major ass! It gives my iPod a much thinner, sleeker look. And it's so perty. Heart it to pieces! Heart it to pieces!
Today, attended the FOBC meeting. Got to take a good look at Campus Martius. I didn't bring my camera, though, because it's being tempermental. I want a new digital camera sooooo bad! Nothing fancy...just something that's small and takes good pix. I just don't want to pay for one. I just bought my dig cam 2 years ago. There's no justification in buying a new one...especially when I'm trying to SAVE money. Anyway...was cool to see the Christmas tree...and the fountain...and kids out ice skating. It's so cheesy...but I feel so proud of the city of Detroit. It's come a long way. Like it is constantly said...it has a long way to go... but it has come a LONG way.
Today I began watching The Sopranos. I knew if I ever watched it, I had to watch it from the beginning. I've watched three episodes thus far (about to go watch a fourth). While it's good and I can see how it's addicting...it definitely is no Six Feet Under. And I don't understand Jamie Lynn Sigler/DiScala at all. I think her character is beyond annoying. Maybe that will change in future seasons...but I just want to bitch slap her. And I don't think she's a good "actress" at all. It seems like she doesn't speak loud enough when she talks...like she's timid...but I know that's probably just how she talks. Am I being mean? Probably. Do I give a shit? No.
Yeah. So that's the story.
