sorry no time to blog. i'll expand it with details later.

went to sleep over for the rose parade new years eve

we were not all that prepared. i could have used gloves, thermal socks, and a heating apparatus (bbq with coals would have been sufficient).

we decided to sleep outside on chairs in our sleeping bags. didn't get much sleep. wendy described it as the most uncomfortable night in her life.

while helping pour a big pot of water into a water dispenser, i got a pretty bad burn on my ankle when the guy carrying the other side of the pot dropped it without giving me a warning...size of two half dollars.

saw the rose parade on new years day.

got to work on thursday. then nguyen tells me he bought a new silver bmw 330i. i didn't believe him even when he showed me the keys. but he did. 18" rims. sport package. premium leather and sound. moon room. xenon. we took it for a spin. wow. he totally deserves it. he'll be working at best buy for quite a while. tonight, went to nguyen's house, ate some bitter mellon (much bitter than i expected), and watched taxi driver with joe.)



tomorrow, i leave for the church retreat at 1pm....i need to do some consulting work (not looking forward to it), and then leave by 1. if i don't spend too much time doing consulting work, i'm gonna rush back home, work out before i leave for the church retreat. i should be back by sunday evening.
