not much new to report (hey, was i really gonna get a job for 2 weeks? and my parents unfortunately don't want a pond), but the page has been getting stale...
so i saw the big disaster flick with my mom yesterday. quite predictable, but i didn't go to be surprised. fun nonetheless. plus somewhat activisty--moviegoers used to be afraid of nuclear war, now they're afraid of global warming. now maybe we'll start to see mostly meaningless non-pollution legislation as well. still can't wait for harry potter 3 to come out =), but till then hbo will have to do, and my trashy mtv-published mystery novel.
also celebrated my little bro's b-day, when i finally got to give him settlers of catan, which meant i finally got to play again =D woo capitalism! well, it's fun at least...
so then tonight i was all settled to write this, in my p-j's with my glass of wine from dinner, when my dad's bridge group shows up and needs another player. i figured, how classy, threw on some pants and joined in. my dad and i (aka team 2) made a fine showing, totaling a final score of -30 (green banana). i mean, we didn't come in *last*...

Werd, if only me and Tara had been there. Then you would have had another team to beat. And another team to make funny comments during bidding!
ReplyDeleteAre your parents sure they don't want a pond? Ours is almost done. When they see it, boy they'll want one then! =D

well we do already have a vernal pond, and any other changes to the property might be outlawed under wetlands regulations... kinda ironic if you think about it (and not in that fly-in-your-chardonnay way)
ReplyDeletevernal pond, eh?
ReplyDeletemy brother knows all about vernal ponds.
he worked for over a year for the Center for Remote Sensing and Spacial Analysis using satelite imagery and data mapping programs to locate vernal pools throughout New Jersey, because they're protected habitats. If identified, they can be protected. Anyway, that's what I have to say.

hi,
ReplyDeletei don't know if you are back from ireland/norway yet, but if you are, you should resume blogging. because it's cool. and also because i have joined the blogging crew. my very own livejournal can be found at www.livejournal.com/~densamma . I'm not promising it'll be funny or cool, just that...um...it exists. and is a blog.
so yeah, whether you are home or not, you should find a computer and tell us how the last month has been! if no blog, at least emails!
I hope you're having an amazingly awesome time (and i'm sure you are),
