what a nice weekend...I got to hang out with people that I don't see that often. on friday night, brad invited me to his friend rick's bday dinner at typhoon where i met a bunch of his college friends and his best friend from san fran. afterwards, we just headed back to brad's place where i engaged in the most interesting conversation with his good friend matthew, matt, sousa...whatever people call him. anyhow, i had a really great time meeting all of brad's friends and just talking to all of them.

i then spent all of saturday with phoebe in southcenter. that place gets more and more ridiculous i go there...it's like a huge vacuum cleaner, where it sucks you up and won't let you out until you've spent at least $100 in one of its hundreds of stores. i got a new alarm clock (yay!..my old one died), a new minishelf stereo system (the cd player on my old one is fried), and lots of other random things that i don't really need (i.e.--the Eurosealer...it creates that seal on plastic bags...and functions as a refrigerator magnet at the same time!). and we ended the evening watching "billy elliott" at the b'way market theatre...god, i loved that movie. within the chaos of the events in his family's life, this young boy found pleasure in ballet! i love it! phoebe and i were in giggles, bringing back memories of dance classes.

and today, i went to steven's pass with the whole music site-dev team. manine and boris took ski lessons and everyone went off and did their thing. last minute, i decided to snowboard, which i'm glad i did. i don't think i could've survived today on skis....and it was so much fun on a board...the snow was soft and easy to fall on (not that i fell that much..ahem...[eyes wander])
but i'm exhausted now because i woke up at 5:30am and really only got about 3 hours of sleep since i always find myself staying up til 2am at least. but i've gotta crash now...me very sleepy....
