since roadtrips are being undertaken(undertook?), please head eastward after you pick up Mann. Canadian bands tell me that you can get back across the border easiest in Montana, then you're only two time zones away from michigan!

No gelato - I'm cold. Besides, I like spumoni better.

Now I don't remember what I was going to say. Hi. Yay for the car, Luna!

MsLaura to thread.
Hi. I'm back. New York was big and overwhelming and it was nice to see friends and family but the city wore me down. I'm very glad not to live there anymore.
Anyway. I've been debating whether to come back to ILX or not, after my 2-week sabbatical, but... well, I'm putting my toes in the water.
― Casuistry (Chris P), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 00:48 (twenty years ago) link
I'm so jealous that you all got to chit chat away today!
I was at my new job, which went just fine thanks for asking. But I don't foresee any ILXing there for a very long time. In fact, my boss was sitting at my desk showing me how to do some data entry and she deleted my short cut to the internet saying, "Oh, you won't be needing thissssss...." It was all very slow-motion and traumatic. Ha ha. But not really. It's quite empowering to be the sole money maker.
JuliaA, I promise I'll be setting up a meeting with you in the not so far future. I'm still in that settling in phase. In fact, I was able to walk to that bar where we met up with Kenan and Jaymc and Jessa (though it was quite a longer walk than I had imagined).
Luna, I just watched Down with Love again, which takes place in New York, but the beautiful summer's day fireplace made me think of California.

I didn't realize that you were starting work already, Sarah! I hope your boss leaves you some space once you've adjusted so you can grace us with your presence.
I just got an email about being past due on my phone bill, with threats to disconnect and everything. Past due amount: $3.00. Once I got past the panic of contemplating disconnection, I had to laugh.I need to get my silly inattentive brane together, I am far too frequently confusedly messing up on things and then getting threatening notices.
― JuliaA (j_bdules), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 02:45 (twenty years ago) link
Down With Love was on the plane out to NYC, and it wasn't my kind of movie -- it was really painfully predictable -- but I am a curmedgeon who doesn't like movies so don't mind me. They played Johnny English on the way back -- you know, "Rowan Atkinson in Bond spoof"? -- and that looked dreadful.

Hooray for Luna's new ride! Im jealous!
Past due threats for $3.00, got to love it. At least my pst due threats are like "your $250 past due." Once my electric bill was $1000. I hate bills, obviously sometimes I hate paying them...

This is my second day back at work after a two week break which now seems like a distant memory. I'm trying to work up the willpower to go running this evening in order to mount a Shock & Awe style attack on the additional belly developed over Xmas. Could someone shout some encouraging fitness guru-style slogans at me? Thx!

That is all I am going to say.

The only thing I'm looking forward to about today is the few inches of snow awaiting me. Yay snow!

Rob: see the pain barrier? Run away from it. Slowly.
― Archel (Archel), Tuesday, 6 January 2004 17:25 (twenty years ago) link
Hi. I'm actually doing pretty good. I'm just kind of sick of being in the house. I went for a walk and my face froze, fell off, and shattered on the sidewalk. I think I'm going slowly insane. But I'm glad to be in Chicago and not at my old job and in an exciting new phase of my life. A faceless phase. A phaseless face. Weird. I just had a cold, so I recorded a song with low growly Calvin Johnson vocals. That was fun. Hi.

Starry & Archel: Cheers guys - burn duly felt. Pain barrier was deftly avoided through proper stretching. Feeling achy this morning though.
