I did it again. Or should I say I didn't do it. Didn't update my journal.

I swear I'm gonna do it. Really. Sigh.

I've become one of those people to start a journal then quit right away. This must be resolved. Expect lots of postage soon...

I'm back, back at work, back to normalcy, back to life.

Back to boring. Sigh. Someone come spice things up...

Random new word combination: boredomme

Leaving for a few days with a few family people. Call it vacation or insanity. Back Sunday. Might check email while gone. Might not :)

I met and talked to a woman tonight who has a new fetish I'd never heard of: she likes sex with strangers and wants to know nothing about them. She approached me and told me not to tell her my name... she was htting on my but was really honest about not wanting to know anything, my name, what I do, what I like, where I live, anything, not even why I'm in a chair or whatever. She says she really gets off on having fun without knowing anything.

She wasn't my type in any number of ways but I found the idea a little strange... I at least want to know a few things about a girl...

Happy Christmakwanzafestakkuah to you all.

Tonight is the company Christmas party. I'll probably go. I hate going to these things alone. And I hate it being awkward if I just bring a friend.

Grr.

So in the last few days I've met a couple of new hotties online.

One lives in Ohio. The other in Kentucky.

Fuck. Those are both like eleventy-bazillion miles from me.

So am I the only one watching the news about the big snowstorm in Denver and thinking "WTF... it's Denver, of course it's snowing. That's what it does there."

You know, Mr. Co-worker, I really didn't need to hear about how you ate a bunch of burritos last night and that's why your cube stinks.

Really, I don't care why it stinks. I just wish it didn't. Since it's next to mine.

My shopping is done.

I have one meeting tomorrow morning. The rest of my calendar is free.

My office is starting to get empty.

I have about 15 hours of work time left. Then vacation until January.

Yay.

I saw this news release from TriMet the local transit agency and was quite excited to see something about NASCAR and buses.

Sadly, we're not getting 200mph buses. Color me disappointed.

It's a conspiracy. Secret government agents are getting my co-workers to bring in a bunch of fatty Christmas treats at the same time I'm trying to lose weight.

Seriously. Peppermint cookies dipped in chocolate? How could a girl resist that?

Or perhaps I'm just an idiot for not wanting to gain weight this time of year. Either way, they were delicious. I have no will power.

I think a bunch of us are going to get way drunk, then go drive through the christmas lights tonight at the racetrack.

No, the driver won't be drunk. Just the rest of us. Should be interesting.

I've discovered the difference between real genuine Slim Fast, and generic Kroger diet shakes.

The real ones have some sort of appetite suppressant. With the Kroger ones I just want to eat. Which isn't real conducive to losing weight.

Go over here and help out local Portland charities just by viewing that one blog post... for each hit on the blog today more money gets donated to charity.

And so it begins, Kristin entering the world of online journaling. I have no idea how I have avoided it thus far despite my immersion in geekdom. For now I'm going to start uploading my random thoughts throughout the day and see what happens. Occasionally I expect something more substantial.

I've been told that the joys of LiveJournal are in the social elements of communities so later today I'll go find some of those and we'll see what turns up.
