have threadsucked and will attempt to read all i've missed later on.
Cindy, i just wanted to let you know that Covergirl is attempting to start drama at beta again. she's bringing up comments that were made in a post that Denise made way back in november and she brought your name in to it. even though she didn't know you were Xanderella. just an fyi if you want to defend your honor or some such.
hope everyone is well. i must go get ready. the family and i are heading here to see the pretty ice sculptures.
I'm trying to get my house clean so I can be self-righteously lazy tomorrow.
It's going fairly well, I suppose. Tonight, dinner here at home, tucking the babies in bed at a (hopefully) decent hour, a movie of some sort, a kiss at midnight and to bed.
I visited Tucson when I lived in Camp Verde, AZ, and met some really nice people. Ever since, I've kept it in the back of my head as one of the places I could live happily.
Who's doing resolutions?
I could not give up coffee, I don't think. I feel droopy enough already.
The coffee seemed to be giving me horrible intestinal/stomach problems, and I have switched to tea. So I feel a lot better, but a lot more tired.
I sent my Secret Santa gift(s) off! Now I feel much much better about the Xmas season in general.
Quitting coffee...
runs away, screaming

Wait, I already pretty much only drink decaf. I'm not sure why giving up coffee altogether should be so much harder, but somehow it seems like it would be. Although, I recently discovered the wonderfulness of hot water. It sounds horrid, but is actually really nice, especially when you don't feel great.
I have been known to indulge in the very warm water myself, when I'm thirsty and cold, and don't want to be kept up any.
I'm in good company, then.
My mom drinks hot water all the time -- she gets cold, but doesn't like coffee all the time.

Well, good for you. I think I would be taking Excederin with my tea, but possibly I have Issues.
tiggy, that Ice sculpture show looks like fun. You'd think being up here in the land of ice and snow, we'd have something like that, but nooooo.
I don't have any NYRs per se. There's a fair bit of stuff I started in '04 that I want to continue -- political activism (sorta kinda), exercise, work stuff, religious stuff. I do know that I'm not giving up coffee. At all. Ever. I might try to give up celibacy, but that was also a goal for '04 and didn't happen. Maybe it's like smoking? You have to try repeatedly before you can quit.
Today I've gone walking in sunny 60F weather and will probably surf and read while drinking hot chocolate and watching the birds mug my feeder. Tonight I'll probably be hanging out with Smonster and some others for a low-key slounge and ball-drop-watch. Tomorrow I have a NY brunch to which I'll be bringing mimosas. It's shaping up to be a good weekend.
