i figured it was about time i updated my splash picture (even though my sister could still use another roommate). the pix to the left is of northstar at tahoe, where i have a seasons pass this year and where i plan to be every weekend. sure beats the mountains in ny, nj and pennsylvania. its about equivalent to those in vermont though.

so its been awhile since my last blog and i could probably tell a thousand different stories, but i'll spare you the pain of reading them all and tell the latest two events of my life in bullet form:
> went to vegas last weekend
> lost $120 (money i don't have)
> owe sister more money on top of that
> discovered the fun of casino war and penny slots
> met some marines
> went to some clubs
> ran into con
> watched my cousin get married (even though she was married already)

> yesterday, went to work event for upcoming game, 25 to life
> took elaine with me
> surprise performance: krs one
> two filipina dj's -- they were awesome
> krs one -- super awesome
> crowd -- super small, so therefore... awesome
> ran into con's friend i met in vegas, reinforced the smallness of the world

and in case i get lazy again and don't update this for some time...
> 12/16: happy birthday dad
> 12/19: happy birthday herms. you're an old fart.
> 12/25: merry christmas

the end.
