Playing Catch Up

Ok, I started this last night but never finished it....jeez.

Between the antibiotics I got for my cold last week which have been making me dizzy and unbearably tired, hockey, Cirque, the weekend, orders and holidays, I've been lax in getting an update. Which of course means that there's more to discuss when I do get around to it making me want to put it off longer, making the list of recaps longer....etc.

Thursday we got to see our first hockey game since the 2003-4 season. My friend Rand's company gets season tickets and so he got the tix for the game that night. It was so nice to see a game in person again. I've really missed it. The Lightning hosted the St. Louis Blues and won with a final score, 5-4. My friend Rand totally lucked out and won the raffle that night. So he got a SIGNED All-Star jersey by Marty St. Louis! We were all suitably jealous, let me tell you! It's quite nice.

Friday er...not much happened. Took it easy. Love and I just hung out together which was nice. We also watched some more of Lost season 2 in an attempt to get caught up on the current season.

Saturday I got to go see Varekai for free thanks to one of the nice ladies at Rand's work. She got the ticket but didn't end up wanting to go. So I went with a couple of the other ladies there - they came and picked me up - and got to see the show. It was quite lovely. I enjoyed it a lot. There's just something excellent about Cirque that makes for such a wholly unique experience. I missed Love and was sad he didn't get to see it but I'm glad I went.

Sunday we were going to get a tree but I was so dizzy and sick to my stomach from my antibiotics we only hit the stores we needed to and called it a night.

Monday night saw us looking for a tree. The place we normally go to was selling not-so-nice trees this year and for $60-70 (!!) each. That was a big no for us. So we drove to a couple places and couldn't find anything. I was getting really bummed out. We ended up hitting Lowe's and got a really nice Fraser Fir (my favorite) for $34! Whoo hoo! It's really nice.

Tuesday I started this entry but did not finish it. Oops. I finished my antibiotics (finally) and am happy to be done with them. I've been having dizziness problems and sleep issues (in that I sleep far too much and can't stay awake plus really crazy, vivid dreams all night) and yesterday saw stomach upset added in. Needless to say, I'm glad it's done with. And I'm feeling a lot better so I guess it helped. I was really worried it was going to turn into bronchitis or pneumonia or something for as much as it had settled in my chest and wouldn't let go. I've gotten almost all my voice back (still breaks on the higher pitches) which is good too. We were going to decorate the tree but ended up watching House and Queer Eye instead.

Wednesday is today! And I'm posting this damned entry no matter what! ;)

Thanks to Lorena for the nice box of candles and handmade soaps. It was quite a pleasant surprise. :)

Alright, there's my super thrilling update. Light on actual content but ya know, it at least gets me mentally caught up. It annoys me when I want to update my journal but I haven't gotten around to bringing it up to date first.

Keep in mind it's still not too late to put in a jewelry order at PhoenixFire Designs. I've had a couple orders come in the last few days and they're all heading out. You'll still get it in plenty of time.

Ok, done babbling. TTFN.
