Funny

Air America (www.airamericaradio.com) played Al Franken's audio version of his book "Lies and the Lying Liars that tell them" on the holiday, and where he's got clips of Rush or O'Reilly, it's really them talking! He's not impersonating them, he has the actual clips of what they said! I was laughing so hard!

Thanksgiving

Brandon went to see his mother in Rocklin, CA for turkey day this weekend, and James (Heather's husband) had to work all weekend (which sucks) so Heather and I went with my family to my mom's bosses' friend from the dog parks' house. Talk about six degrees of separation. It was great. There was a 6 dogs there and two cats. The house was beautiful, 5 bedrooms, hot tub, pool, HUGE LANDSCAPED BACKYARD, HUGE CUSTOM MASTER BATHROOM, formal dining room that lead into a formal living room, a sitting room, patio I could really go on and on. The food was SO GOOD! Mmmmmmmmmmmmmm..... Uncle Danny did most of the cooking and man! It was amazing! That was really the best Turkey I've ever had. Same with the stuffing. He thought that he overcooked his broiled potatoes, but they were totally amazing. This is the first Thanksgiving in two years that I've been able to hang out with my family. Last year I went to Rocklin to meet Brandon's mom, the year before that I caught the flu and was puking.

After the dinner, Heather and I went to Rick and Shahnon's house and we watched "The Italian Job." After that we played UNO for a couple of hours. I came in second.

Christmas Party

I'm too lazy to check if I've mentioned this already, but we're having a Christmas party this year and the only requirement is: to bring a gift (value less than $20) for the gift game, and to wear the most tacky Christmas sweater/t-shirt/vest you can find. The more flair, the better. December 17, 2004 8pm-ish. I'm making cookies!!! I have Christmas cookie cutters, stencils, Christmas-y sprinkles and icing. I'M FREAKING OUT OVER HERE!

Last Day of Work at STTE

I'm writing this from STTE, and it's my last day. :( It's kind of sad, but I'm happy that I'm going to be making more money and possibly have more responsibility. Yolanda made me a cake (which was really great) and I had two people come up to me and shake hands/ hug me and tell me they were going to miss me. I thought that was really sweet. One guy even told me that he'd always thought I was very beautiful. *blush* It was cute. He must be blind. Ok, I came in 45 minutes late, I should probably start working now.
