a new regime, the rise of machines, this is a pixel revolution

Christmas time is my favorite time of the year. Well it’s the main holiday of my favorite part of the year.

Patrick is in St. Louis with his family. I’m here in LA and have come down with a cold. A pretty miserable one at that. Not only do I have a cold but I also am having an allergic reaction to something in my bed. This means  I can sleep for about 4 hours before I wake myself up with scratching. Hopefully that will go away when the cold does, which should be tonight.

I haven’t come up with a final meal plan for Christmas yet but I think it will either involve duck or a turkey. Not sure what I am going to do with my family for their presents. I was going to get my mom a massage from Burke Williams and take my sister out shopping for some new clothes, and not sure what to do for my dad, but instead I have spent too much money on myself so I am not doing anything. :/ I know, it’s terrible.

It happened this weekend and it was pretty fun, despite the minor strss out I had about the photobooth guy not showing up during the time I was told he would be there.

But he showed, and fun was had:

I'm giving Patrick the uppercut

It’s Halloween weekend again! Yey!

This year's pumpkin theme is Star Trek

So this year I am once again going to Dave and Christie’s annual Halloween soiree. Patrick is coming with. That is tonight (Friday night) and tomorrow we are going to a little underground show called Sneaky Nietzsche. I’m actually not quite sure what happens at the show, but I suppose that is the appeal. It has something to do with live music and dance and painted faces.

And on Sunday I am staying at P’s to avoid any kind of interruption by children. Children with grabby hands expecting things.

Last weekend Jamie and I went to Lake Tahoe. It was the first time I had been and unfortunately it rained the whole time. Usually I enjoy staying in bed on rainy days and just watching movies but I was getting pretty restless during this trip. It was probably because I have never been to Tahoe before and wanted to explore. The weather wasn’t really permitting any exploring though. Jamie and I did get massages that weekend and I did get to use the sauna. W000t. I also got a pair of moccasins so I guess the trip wasn’t SO bad. We both agreed to return when the weather is nicer.

Jamie bought a new beanie in Tahoe
