8. Thanks GoP
btw, I had to think of you the other day. I was playing Scrabble with my mom and grandma. And I had your ID in my letters GOPSUX. I had to laugh. Of course I wasn't allowed to put it on the board.

13. Maybe you could have waited and spelled Butt instead
:silly:
I am honored to have crossed your mind.
I hope besides being sick that life is treating you well.

Christmas was really nice with the family. But now I also enjoy the peace of being by myself.

12. That's right.
I had one day vacation left to take this year, so I took it on Monday to make a 5-day weekend. Now Christmas is over as far as I'm concerned. :)

you're totally welcome at my New Year's bash if you want to fly into the Maryland/Virginia area.

(of course, it's a bit far to travel for a party!)

25. So sorry to hear
that you are sick. Maybe you'll recover by New Year's Eve. Here's some pixie dust, maybe it'll help.

If weather permits, I'll be spending New Year's Eve with friends. But I can't think of a better way to spend New Year's Eve then with you!

33. Yes, still in SC
The name of the town is Aiken. There isn't much around here except for horse farms and retirees. One thing I like is that since horses are so plentiful here they have the right of way on many of the streets, hence the locals are very tolerant of those of us who ride bikes as well.

39. No, but many have their own
The old part of town is called the 'horse district' and these homes have their own stables. Many a time as I pass by on my bike a horse (or horses) will be standing at the fence next to the road like they were expecting me, or just looking at what passes by. I've never been this close to horses before and I think they are really cool.

41. I will probably try it soon
The horses I've seen appear to be really gentle and friendly. When I stopped to look closer at several one afternoon, they almost seemed to beckon me closer. There was one which moved its head to one side as if to indicate, 'come over here'.

stop by and we can go.

Here's a lame joke:

Q: What has four legs and flies?
A: A horse.

34. I think I didn't drink enough over Christmas
(and I don't mean alcoholic beverages :P )

I do now though.
ABout half of my family was sick over Christmas. No wonder I catched it.

42. Oh, I'm sorry MissHoneychurch!
I hope that you feel better before New Years.

I actually don't like all the drinking and over eating on New Years Eve.

I would much rather have a quiet night with good friends and a couple bottles of wine.

I got me some NyQuil. That helps me at least to sleep through the night.

I had so much food over Christmas, I can do without food for a while now :eyes:

My mom asked me if I want to come to her place. But I declined. I don't wanna play ping pong with infection with her (I got the cold from her) and I don't want to spread the germs in the train. Also I have to be back to work on the 2nd, so I better stay home and try to get rid of the cold

She works at a daycare and thankfully they are having a holiday shut down.

I just hope that I don't get it.

while everybody is out, esp. at midnight, shooting fireworks. I don't really know. It is the second or third New Years Eve I spend alone. I doesn't bother me this year. I know I have friends online I can talk to.

And I'm not a party person anyway, and sure not because we just still write '2007' for a few days ... You'll be fine, and you know you're not alone, just not physically together with your friends. Loneliness is different from solitude. :hug:

59. My nephew made my entire family sick
Sunday he's got a green runny nose and on Wednesday me, my parents, sister, and BIL have near exploding sinuses and I can barely touch my neck without pain. All from a 2 1/2 year old who wasn't even that sick. Maybe by new years I'll be breathing through my nose.
