Cold and cold and cold
It is so cold! I do not know how i ever lived in Idaho, or Finland, and ever felt okay. It is 32 degrees right now and I am so very cold and chilly. I feel like a big ice block!
Things have been busy and pretty okay. Last week we had our awards ceremony at work and I was voted ‘Rookie of the Year’, which is cool. I got a special certificate that is framed and my name misspelled but I still have it up in my office because it is cool. I also got a bonus, very nice. It is nice to feel appreciated.
We had a holiday party this weekend, complete with cider, Christmas karaoke and cookie decorating. It was very fun, I sang ‘The Greatest Love of All’ as I have been hoping to do for a while now. I realize it is not a Christmas song, but hey, it is radically bad!
I saw ‘The Golden Compass’ last night with the surfer man. Overall, I thought it was quite good. The special effects were cool and they picked great actors for all of the characters. But, the stories as they are on the written page are never kept intact when transferred to film and so it was with this one as well. Oh sigh. Surfer man had just finished the book so he was especially peeved. We then had thai food at Thai Siam in Ballard, muy yum yum.
