I finally had the chance to check out my new iPod in more detail this morning...it had a surprise in it-a video, Fat Boy Slim's Weapon of Choice!!! I LOVE this video, I LOVE Christoper Walken!

So far, I've been able to get to the gym every other day and I'm really enjoying it. The iPod makes it more enjoyable and gives me the push I need to keep going. I'm still embarrassed to look at anyone, afraid they'll laugh and say what's the point, but mostly I push that out of my mind.

I found out this morning It's possible I'll have a little surprise for my friend MaryEllen Tuesday night...we'll see.

Yesterday I went out to breakfast with Dad, love the Owl Diner! After that I did some stuff around the house, played with the dogs and then set off for Boston, to meet Michelle at the Ritz for high tea. That was her Christmas present to me, and boy was it nice. I know I don't seem like the Ritz "type" but I'm comfortable there...it brings me back to childhood; my grandmother was into those sorts of things. We hit the bar downstairs afterwards and scored a table by the window, overlooking Boston Common. Nice, nice, nice...Michelle ruined it all by throwing a wasabi pea at me, tho! Can you imagine?!!! (joking!!! I'm JOKING, Michelle-|||, dude!)

I saw this guy in Red Eye and thought he was more than a bit creepy. Then I saw him in Breakfast on Pluto and thought he was just the most adorable thing ever. He's up for a Golden Globe for his work in Breakfast on Pluto, against Johnny Depp, come to think of it, for Willy Wonka. Hmmm...

I'm sorry I missed out on the tea. We got about 3 inches of snow and it was messy. It snowed this morning, turned to icy rain and is just plain yucky!
I love to recall the teas we shared with our grandmothers. It was always a special time, wasn't it?

That guy in Red Eye- the pic you have linked he does look creepy!!

That Walken video cracks me up so much because that guys scared the bejeezus out of me.

i am the same way at the gym, i wont even run or jog on the treadmil b/c i know i will run out of breath in a matter of seconds and i am afraid people will laugh.

Dude YOURSELF you are damn lucky that wasabi pea did not put your eye out or worse yet get stuck in your ear!
