New Years!

I hope everyone has/had a safe and fun New Years!

I am still not sure about my plans for tonight. I may go to a house party, my families, or to a bar. It's still in the air.

And as far as resolutions go...I didn't make any. You?

Blogaversary

I had my blogaversary yesterday the 22nd of December. I started blogging in December of 2004 and I have been blogging on and off ever since.

Here is the post that started it all.

Happy Blogaversary to me!

New Digs

So we finally moved to our new building, which was my old building. We are in a very confined space. It kind of looks like a long hallway with offices on the right and cubicles on the left. The great thing about being here is that all of my department is finally together and we are in the building where most of our clients are at.

The bad thing is that I can hear what someone is saying 50 feet away from me. Seriously.

When I get a personal phone call I always walk outside of the room and go to the actual hallway to talk.

Yesterday I had my radio very quietly and someone from 5 cubes down came over and asked if I could lower it. So now I am listening to my ipod.

Another bad thing. We are in front of the cafeteria and I can smell bacon cooking all morning and hamburgers all afternoon. I literally want to throw up after I leave work.

Another good things is that we get free soft drinks, water, and I am less than 5 minutes from my house.

Holiday Parties and Other Things

I have been invited to more holiday parties this year than ever before. Although I appreciate it and always enjoy them I am ready for the holidays to be over so I can rest a little.

I went to a holiday party tonight at a friends place. I was expecting to find a lot of hot guys because my friends is really cute but by the time I got there the only ones left were the not so cute ones. I did meet a guy though. He is totally and completely perfect for me. We grew up in the same city, do the same type of work, and live in the same neighborhood. It was just way to many coincidences. Yeap. Perfect.

Perfect until his boyfriend came over to mark his territory. He comes up, wraps his arms around his waist and promptly introduces himself as his boyfriend. Damn!

But the party was fun.

I went to the party with one of my friends and his boyfriend. I haven't really had the opportunity to talk to my friends boyfriends even though they have been dating for about two months now. The guy just doesn't interest me...and he doesn't like me...so I don't bother talking to him. He doesn't like me for several reasons, all valid. My friend always calls him by my name...even in bed. I would hate me too. And me and his boyfriend spend a lot of time together.

I hope your holidays have been a lot more restful than mine. Oh, I finally moved to the new building for work. I will write about that tomorrow.

The Morning After

I went out last night and didn't get home until 2:30 this morning. I am paying for it now. I didn't drink, that much, so it could be worse.

I had a good time thought. I saw some people I haven't seen in months and met some new people. I met a HOT little boy named Stevie who almost spilled a red drink on my white shirt and later played with my nipples. Unfortunately Stevie has a boyfriend.

Christmas Shopping

I have succesfully delegated most of my shopping to my sisters. One of them has volunteered to do all of my shopping for me so I sent her my list and she gave me suggestions on what she was going to be getting all of the adults.

The kids are done, two of my other sisters did that for me the day after Thanksgiving.

Now I just need to shop for my friends and my co-workers and I never know what to get my co-workers. I thought about getting them a box of chocolate but my boss has been making chocolate candy and it's really good.

I thought about getting them a bottle of wine but most don't drink. So now I have no clue what I am going to get them. Any suggestions?

Do Straight People Use Lube?

It was a very non-exiting weekend.

My sister and I tried to do some Christmas shopping on Saturday but the malls were packed so we decided to just go back home and attempt going back during the week. I hope it is less crowded. I only have 22 more gifts to buy, I bought 6 of them online last night and I have already bought 24. Yea, that's what happens when you have a big family.

My brother is taking finals this week so I am sending him a little care package with candy, cereal bars, pencils, condoms and other necessities. While I was at the store picking out the condoms I didn't know if I should also pick up a packet of lube. Do straight people use lube?

As I stared at the options I had for condoms I realized I have no idea what straight people do in bed. I have never experienced it but I think it would be an advantage if I at least knew how things worked out.

In other news, I am no longer dating the real estate guy. So now I am down to ZERO men that I am dating.

Good News, Bad News

I went to get another fitness evaluation this week and there has been some improvement from when I first started working out. Here are the highlights:

I have lost 18 lbs in 8 months.

I have lost 5.1% body fat.

The bad news, I didn't meet my goal of how much body fat I wanted to loose.

The good news, I am only 4% away.

The bad news, my trainer canceled on me for tomorrow morning. It looks like i am on my own.

My new goal is to loose 6% body fat by June/July, just in time for my summer vacation. :)

Dating

I had a date tonight.

Apparantly my date had another date sometime this week and he had the love marks to prove it. Yeap. He had hickies. It was weird.

I asked "Are those hickies? How old are you again?"

Love of my life

I watched the movie l'amour Dangereux this weekend and I am in love with Nicolas Cazale. I don't think I have to explain much, just look at the pictures below.

Antonio Briceno

I was reading the December/January issue of Hispanic Magazine and they had an article about Antonio Briceno. Briceno is a photographer that is trying to capture the deitieis and gods of South America's oldest civilizations. The images are amazing. I especially like the ones below images in Dioses de America and Bazares.

Take a look at these and tell me what you think.
