December Already?

When did it get to be December?! Dude. So, we had the Get Sauced party last night. It was rather impromptu, decided only on Friday night after much drinking and bad bowling. However, it was a rousing good time, with six in attendance all told. We made a Beef Burgundy; C-Vo brought a yummy spinach dip; Ray-Ray brought kir, an Indian rice pudding; K-Love brought the fixins for a ginger-orange carrot dish, and Senor Dia brought a nice whomp of salad. I think I covered everybody!? I do have pictures, but this is a placeholder till I get them uploaded. It's kind of a pain because I load them into the Mac, edit them in Photoshop a bit, and then plug them into the blog, generally on the PC side, and that requires effort. I have almost no effort in me right now. Long Monday--we started class at 8 this morning and didn't quit till 7:30 this evening. Oh, joy.

Only to be followed by a long Tuesday, but it will be a special one. Field Trip! All of us crazy steno students will be going to Milwaukee tomorrow to visit two freelance firms, Brown and Jones and Gramann Reporting. There's food involved, and on our return trip, shopping! at Johnson Creek Outlet Mall. Should be a good time, and hopefully there will be an opportunity for me to pick up assorted little gift exchange things, and perhaps something frivolous. I'm just glad to be out of a classroom for 8 hours. Dude.

Sleeping now, perchance to dream of cats sleeping in my lap.
