my random thoughts

I can't believe I survived two weeks without internet. That's gotta be a record.

Anyways, the most exciting thing that happened was when I flew back home from San Jose. I needed to make a connecting flight in Chicago, but my the flight from SJC was delayed by 30 mins and I only had a 40 min window between flights! TO make a long story short, I made the flight but my checked-in luggage didn't! I sort of expected that to happen, but as soon as I got to the baggage claim area in Pearson they PA'ed me and a few others since they were already notified that my luggage had been "delayed". The airline delivered the luggage all the way to my house later that night. I was pretty impressed by that. All my clothes and gifts for people were in there....I was freaking out earlier because I thought it'd take them weeks to track down my luggage.

In terms of presents I didn't receive anything from anyone other than a car freshener thing from Jen. That was really thoughtful of her since the one I have in my parent's car is practically dead. Thanks Jen! To make myself feel better I went down to Play de Record and bought a stack of vinyl, which I brought back with me. My collection is growing! Maybe I should organize a house party or something before I leave the bay area.

Spent the new years thing at my friend Ian's house in Toronto. He decided to organize a house party and invited way too many people.... One of his friends insisted we all drink prairie fires at midnight. Unbeknownst to him, I chucked mine down the bathroom sink and filled the glass with water. HAHAHA LOSER. I think someone threw up in the bathroom and missed the toilet bowl a bit cuz I able to smell it when I was in there.

Now that I'm back at work, I miss TO even though it's grey, cold and miserable. But that's okay cuz it's home!
