lazy weekends

The first few days of 2005 have been LOVELY. New Year's eve, after I left Nathan's with the laundry, I dolled up, and went to Todd and Chad's first -they had a supper party. Charming friends they have!!! 'Bout 10, I headed over to Jeremy's to hang out with him and Gretchen. There were several people upstairs as well to ring in the new year with Lowell, so there was a lot going on. The highlight was watching "Napoleon Dynamite" and eating truffles. "Here Tina, eat your food, you stupid llama." Good times. Steve came down from VA for a visit and that was nice.

Started back to school this week and that's the big hurrah!!! Oh I'm so tired now, but missed them all so much so it's HEAVEN to be back!!! Right now, I'm "Barley-sitting" for Todd and Chad, as they're up skiing in WVA, skiing being a sport that I've of course sworn off forever. Barley is such good therapy, snarfy, doggy love without high maintenance -he's curled up next to me right now on the couch, while I'm vegged out in front of a big screen trying to figure out if my hair's going to look more like Julia Ormond's when she was in "Sabrina" and flipping back and forth between some fab brit flicks - it's been Colin Firth day so far - joy!

Today is Darling Nathan's birthday -happy birthday precious!!!! And Bernard's going away party - he's going back to Malaysia next week. So, not many deep thoughts today, just silly little things, but sometimes that's good about life too.
