May Your Days Be Merry and Bright (T-21 days)

Today's event: Pam's Going Away Drinks #2

I had planned to get up at 5:30, do a little yoga with my pal Tony Horton, shower, and skip along to work. What happened? I slept. whee! Sorry Ton'.

So, I work in the middle of an area that lots of promoters like to hawk their stuff. One day, my (now former) coworker Pam was grabbing lunch across the street, and these guys were like "Hey, hold this and take a picture for ESPN." She does it, and it turns out they were making her hold a Maalox t-shirt. While cleaning out her desk, she offers it to me and I gladly accept. So instead of advertising my love of neutralizing heartburn, I decided to have our whole office sign it for her. mwahahaha. Everybody deserves a fun going away present!



Finished up work a little later than everyone else, so I headed over to Kerryman late. This bar is gorgeous. I really should go there more. Anyway, the club soda thing went out the window. . .luckily I'm a super slow drinker, so I nursed my Hoegaarden for about 2 hours. Realized that my hours are due tomorrow and that I left that documents I need at work, so I had to head back there (btw, super creepy when nobody is around!) and then jump on the bus to come back. Still working on them. . .and may wakeup early to get them done. Awesome.

Countdown to Xmas break - T-minus 24

Hi blog readers!

I was just reminded that I haven't posted since um. . .September? eesh.

Ok, so to recap the fall TV preview (and stuff I never got around to posting. . .):

-Great! Modern Family
-Want to love it, but can't get into it: V
-Better than I thought: Cougartown
-Gonners: The Beautiful Life

Now begins the annual Countdown to Xmas break (which for me starts Dec 22). As a reminder, we have client parties, holiday parties, birthday parties, xmas shopping, and a show to write (premiering at Donny's Skybox Jan 23 - come see it!).

This year, I may also stalk the holiday train on the El. I kinda love it. Or just take the train a lot and hope that I catch it one of these days. It's almost better when it's a surprise.

Anyway, on the agenda for today -
-P90x (screw you, Thanksgiving)
-Xmas shopping! Possibly braving Mich Ave. . .girl needs some boots.
-Writing session

Let's go. . .together, we can make it through this nutty holiday season. Feel free to post comments about the things you have to go to too. I'll bet there will be calamari!
