The Christmas post

Actually not a real Christmas post, i was clearing my camera card in preparation for "The Awesome Road Trip" this week(end). So here's a few random pix that were lingering on my camera. Hope everyone had a very merry Christmas. I did!

"Just some lights"

Took this while in between stores, Christmas Shopping

I think this is the first 'family portrait' i've put up here. So we'll call this: "The picture of the family as a young family"

Merry Christmas!!!!!

I really wish i had something more creative to say. But anywho, here we are at another Christmastime, with all the family, friends, food, gifts, giving, reindeer, running, economic growth, and general happiness you can handle. I'm super excited about this amazing(ly) long weekend!!!!!!!
I saw 'I Am Legend' just a bit ago. Put that one under the "suspense" category! Very enjoyable.

I thought (insert appropriate joke here): when was the last time i gave something. When was the last time i gave something without ever expecting something back, or even expect the person i gave the something to, to even like what i gave them. When was the last time i gave something that everyone wants and needs, and a majority of the recipients hated my guts. Sound familiar? How about if they hated my guts so much that they murdered me (even after the option of killing a (more) guilty man). And i wasn't even forcing my gift on them, I simply gave them a choice to accept a free gift. Now does it sound familiar?

Ya, that was my hourly cheesiness, but maybe it will sound cool to someone.

YIPEEEE!!!!!

CHRISTMAS IS HERE BABY!!!! Or is it the Christmas baby's here. Anywho; MERRY CHRISTMAS!!

It was that much sweeter to get out of school at 11:20 because there was no more work! So i got home and looked for a CD i've wanted to put on my mp3 player for a while and that led me to my current task: copying approx. 20 or so (of my parent's old) CDs that i think i may like/have liked. Thus far, Christmas break is most excellent!

I need to start Christmas shopping = O

It hit me really hard today: while watching commercials no less; why is it improper to hint at Christ's name, but expected to repeat his actions (of giving).



I think i mentioned earlier that i'd put some pix up from this weekend.

my lil' sister's end-of-the-year violin concert. (this pic is the high school group that played after her)


Photo experiment: 15 sec shutter, 200ISO in my back yard @ about 11PM

update

kinda cool weekend. Lots of working and helping. Exams tomorrow and Tuesday, and a "free" day on Wednesday. then Christmas, fun and sleep. Pix to follow as soon as i can.

oh ya. So about a month ago i 'misplaced' the single piece that's needed to connect my tune machine to.....anything. I finally ordered another one the other day, and am now 'back to normal'. But i was pleasantly surprised that i'm not addicted to my tunes like i thought i was. I think i even listen to the radio more than anything now.

I'm tired

All you need to know about me

Today: i ran out of gas (in my car) and messed up popping a bag of popcorn. If you don't know me, this describes me pretty well.

The results of No-Shave November!

Yes, i participated in no-shave November. I'm not really partial to the way whiskers look on myself, so i won't continue with it.

I'm tired but not sleepy. I guess that comes later. it's weird to not have a major project due tomorrow.

....

I remember i was trying to remember something but i forgot.
