My sister has put me in charge of games for my niece's fifth birthday. I haven't organized/participated in a party game that didn't involve clothes coming off or doing shots in many years. I like pinatas...so that is a given, but I need ideas. My sister mentioned my niece wanted to play "pin the princess on the castle". I'm sure that is the Disney/Barbie people...

I've decided to change. I've been grouchy, tired, negative, smart-assy and depressed...mainly because my job is kicking my ass right now. I have a ton of work to do and I'm traveling quite a bit. My best friend at the moment is "Frank" the airport parking shuttle guy (he is genuinely cool though).

I've decided to seek out positive things when they are not evident...

What is wrong with people? I went to see Smokin' Aces last night and in walks this family...husband/wife and six kids. None of the kids were older than 12...the youngest was probably two (However old you are when you need to use a sippy cup...rode in on a stroller). Smokin' Aces is rated "R" for bloody violence, nudity, adult content, drug use, adult language.

I'm...

So I made some money today!!! HBO showed up a day late to film an episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm in my neighborhood and needed to block/use my driveway for their catering setup. They rang the doorbell this morning and offered $350 to use the driveway for five hours. Easy money. Maybe I'll start watching their show.

I'm finally back home after a 6-day roadtrip....forgot to clean the frigde before leaving...the Chinese food that already had a few days on it has grown a beard. Stinks...doesn't even begin to describe it.

So I went to the doctor to cure my illness. They x-rayed my lungs and gave me anti-biotics...and now I feel great. Go figure.

I had to pick a doctor from the list my medical insurance gave me. I picked one at Cedar Sinai because it is close to my house. Didn't realize that I had selected a female doctor...nothing wrong with that...just have never...

I'm am back from Phoenix (for a couple of days)...now I am off to Seattle, Phoenix (again) and Portland...all back-to-back. Some people tell me I'm lucky to have a job that allows me to travel, but it really sucks. All three of those cities are great places to go...but I never have time to do anything fun. I hate that 15 seconds in the morning...

Now I am off to Phoenix for the next week....I hate living in hotels. You never get that relaxed feeling you have when you are home. I guess it isn't a bad place to be this time of year...it could be worse.

This is the time of year my job has me on the road quite a bit....I do find comfort in watching my frequent...

Off to Portland I go...uggghhhh. I actually like the place...just don't feel like traveling right now. I don't have a choice...it is for work. Living in LA for so long has made me kind of a wuss when it comes to cold weather...I hate freezing my ass off. Unfortunately for me...I'll be going to Denver and somewhere in Montana next....woo hoo...not.

I love New Year's Eve....hate champagne, but drink too much of it every year. I blew my nose the next day and there was glitter in it...not sure if I should worry.

I have resolutions this year that I am looking forward to fulfilling....not the usual attempt at self imposed torture (diet, exercise, quitting vices, etc).

I will visit two foreign countries this year (that...

Christmas is over...just got back to sunny (windy) LA. I'm so glad I live where it is warm....just came back from a raining, cold, windy, foggy climate...it sucked.

Now New Year's Eve....what to do?

My New Year's resolution (in addtion to last year's that I didn't do)...is to update my profile...put up some pics and participate in this wonderful site....not that anyone has been bugging me to...or cares...

I travel quite a bit for my job and SG isn't an approved site for my company laptop...Kinko's business centers block SG from their computers...as do several hotel chains...so it is...
