Happy New Year
Welcome to 2008, the Year of the Earth Rat.
Given that I'm a paltry Sheep you can imagine how little I am looking forward to this year. Also, given how it's starting out, perhaps even less so.
Although, I'm not Chinese, so I probably shouldn't pay any attention to that. After all, I'm more on the Greek-ish side. So let's see how I fare there...
Sagittarius.
I love the whole work-a-holic thing both of them reference. Me? Overworked? P'shaw, what nonsense! :P
In other news...
I'm not going to mention car problems because they're so obviously there. The sheer thought of bringing them up again will only make me more irritable. Let's just say, "Broken Black Bird's Eye Maplewood paneling."
To avoid being overworked, I've decided to join a Roller Derby league. The San Joaquin Valley Vixens. Now to dig out my roller skates from my closet and get all dialed in. Try-outs are tomorrow. Wish me luck!
I'm toying between two names: "Mad Donna" (a play on Madonna), or "Killah Knightley" (Keira Knightley). Hm.
Recent travel included a trip to Hawaii for X-mas and another to Vegas for New Years.
At Hawaii, I surfed North Shore. Oh la la. I wish I could say it was like 50 ft over head, but, really, there was no swell and it was blown out. I've seen bigger waves in the Delta when I worked at Fish&Game. The Polynesian cultural center was pretty cool. Mai-tai's are stiff. And the condo at Turtle Bay Resort was pretty darn cool.
Oh yeah, my flight out of Hawaii was cancelled. As such, the airline hooked us up with a hotel and some vouchers for dinner, lunch, breakfast. And, best of all, another round-trip ticket anywhere they fly! Yay!
My Vegas trip? Well... what goes on in Vegas, stays in Vegas... as they say.
