its a new year
i can't believe
i didnt write
a
post yesterday
(wednesday)
for today
(thursday)
new year's day
wow
slacking off already
only one blog to maintain
and
no post
yesterday
last year
was
sunny bright and cold
i did some errands
braved fairway
got provisions
for
the long weekend ahead
treated
myself
to
a caramel brûlée latte at starbucks
no whipped creme
please thank you
i know
going for a 400 calorie drink
skipping the whipped creme
what a wus
at least
i didnt get it
with
soy or skim
i know
whats up
with
people who order
high calorie coffee drinks
being
sanctimonious
using
healthy stuff
like
soy or skim
when i dont trust spell check
i c/p the word into google
who is nice enough to ask
dont you mean
yup
i did
one 'a' but two 'i's'
thanks
isn't it nice to see
staying up late
over eating for over a week
drinking some not very good champagne
hasn't
stopped
me
from
leaping
from
thought to thought
toonman
watched
a lot of football
a lot of football
i mostly played
repetitive games
where i tried to out think silly little colored blobs
admitting
i am a candy crush freak
is not easy but its true
being stuck on level 109
being clever enough
to
make sure
i start each turn
with
two of the same colored bombs
still
losing
still
not getting
all those damn jellies
cleared
making the right combos
still
running out of turns
has anyone
ever
in the history of this game
ever
ever
won' the 'jackpot'
on
the daily booster wheel
i doubt it
anyway
i drove myself mad with that
played
some scrabble
some words with friends
lately
i have been getting the worst letters
making the most pathetic words
are the game gods agin me
feels like they are
digressing
again
so
after hours of nothing exciting
we watched
into the woods
which i loved
i didnt see the play
but
i have to wonder about some of the casting
i thought meryl streep was a fabulous witch
i suspect bernadette peters played it a whole other way
meryl is an amazing actress
bernadette is a singer
sondheim is a tricky lyricist
emily blunt
(edited because i misnamed poor emily)
(edited because i misnamed poor emily)
was wonderful as the baker's wife
joanna gleason
now
i wish i had seen her as the baker's wife
nevertheless
the movie is wonderful
anna kendrick is charming and can sing really sing
chris pine makes a terrific flawed prince charming
did i say i loved it
i loved it
we went from that
to
watching the crazies in times square
we switched
between
ryan seacrest
yawn
and
carson daly
who sat with three people i never saw before in my life
making rude remarks
dishing 'celebrities'
that
lasted less than one segment
ended up
turning off the sound
on
sea crest
til the ball dropped
sipped a little more champagne
kissed my man
went to bed
i think
i was asleep by 12:15
(edited again because duh i was wake for the ball drop)
(edited again because duh i was wake for the ball drop)
pathetic but true
now
i am sitting here
typing
waiting
for
our traditional new year's day breakfast
toonman makes us
a very yummy combo
of
eggs onions cheese potatoes
lots of good coffee
some onion rye
cause
i didnt think to get a baguette from eric kayser
til
just now
oh well
happy new year
everyone!
