The day after

So, two things happened yesterday worth sharing:
1. I FINALLY beat Babus (sp?) in FF Tactics, it's the fourth crystal you come across. It took me 6 attempts but I did it! Woop!!! I had to level up a few times and change my equipment, gold armour and the fortune ring helped. Then I switched my extra ability to 'item' so that I could heal myself. The bastard was kicking my a$$ but I finally got through.
2. The premier of Lost Season 5 was on yesterday. My co-worker had a Lost gathering for us Lost fans with a plethora of snacks and Fresca. Fresca! It was delicious. Lost was also very exciting. I think I know where they're going now, literally and figuratively. I can't wait till next week!

Smoothies

I am soooooo into smoothies right now. I made one yesterday and it was DELICIOUS so I made one again just now. And, yes, it's equally DELICIOUS. Some yogurt, vanilla, cranberry juice, black berries and voila! Taste sensation.
I had another massage today. It's amazing how screwed up my body is but at least I can walk again - I had to pull these crazy mats around in the Giraffe barn on Saturday and my poor legs were very sore the last two days. I am so old and decrepit.

Tid bit

Nothing has changed really, I am still playing FF Tactics BUT before I forget I wanted to add 2 words to the english language:
Hulahoopable - when a song is catchy and people can hula hoop to it.
Redneckian - something very redneck, like monster trucks or gun racks
This is in honour of my friend Ryan who continues to push the English language beyond it's current limitations.

Addictions

I am sorry I haven't been posting much. I am BRUTALLY addiced to Final Fantasy Tactics right now. In fact, as I'm writing I am battling a clan that wants to turn me in for a bounty...but I doubt you give a crap about that. Anyways, I started my Bellydancing class again today which was good. And, in a couple weeks I will be going to the So You Think You Can Dance show...Woot woot!!! and another woot! Gotta go, my wizard guy just died...

Love is a fickle thing

I know I said I was madly in love with my vaccuum. But things change and now I am madly in love with my new tires. Michelin. I got to work despite the piles of snow and ice. I drove through flooded roads. THEY ARE AMAZING! Granted, I am now broke but at least I'm alive.
I was just watching the Rick Mercer Report and he did the polar bear swim in Oakville. Hilarious! Tracey, Andy I hope to see you both doing that next year!

New Years Eve

Today I got a new version of Carcassonne - New World. It's set in the New World of course and you start on the east coast of America. The goal is to move west so there are 2 new pieces called Surveyors and they move forward every time a city, road, etc. is completed. This makes it a bit more challenging because any settlers 'left behind' are automatically removed once the surveyor passes them. Tracey & I played twice and I lost twice. Then Andy came and we played 2 more times and I lost 2 more times. Yes, my loosing continues but it was really fun. It's a nice relaxing way to spend New Years. Unfortunately my annoying neighbours are outside setting off fireworks since it's now after midnight. I don't mind but if they hurt Little Car I'm going to egg their house. Speaking of which Little Car has a big crack in the windshield. Not sure when it happened - perhaps it was from the cold or something happened at the Airport since I haven't been driving it much. So, assuming it cannot be repaired I will be moving onto windshield #3. Don't tell my Mom though. Thanks.
Happy New Year by the by.
