Thanksgiving Break '06

Monday November 27th, late in the morning

Mini Colgate reunion -- brunch on Friday.
Boxing on the new Nintendo Wii.

Remember last year? I spent Thanksgiving break trying to cram a couple of thousand 'GRE words' at a hotel in DC. The whole trip was a little last minute -- I got one of the last GRE slots at Howard. I flew in from Colgate on a Monday, leaving DC again on Saturday. Also the whole 'must kick GRE ass' aspect made the whole thing a little stressful. Either way -- it was a good break, I did well on the GREs, and life was good.

This year's trip took me back to the Tringalis; my first 'actual' stop there. In the past I've always been on my way elsewhere (home, Charlottesville) when I stayed with them. In summary: I slept a lot, ate a lot, saw a lot of different busses and trains, and had a ball. It was good seeing some of my favorite major cities again -- I was in DC for a few hours on Wednesday (on my way up), and I spent Friday afternoon in NYC. Special thanks to Tringalis for helping me retain my sanity :)

In addition to having a lot of fun, I also did no work while I was in NJ. Cheers 8-P

    Did you like Nathan in his 'A real baby wears maroon' Colgate shirt? It is lovely, though a bit tight around his belly LOL! Can you e-mail me your flightscedule?

    You had your laptop on in front of the Wii and some papers next to you during Scrabble - doesn't that count as work? =OP

    inspired by Bridget — #3 It totally counts. Unfortunately I discovered a few... shall we say... flaws in the stuff I came up with over the weekend. Net result = no work done ;)

    I guess the goal is to be more productive this week, because I got 'rested' and such...

    Pietor: upgraded PHP to 5.2. Please let me know if there's any trouble. Still considering doing the same for CBX server, meaning I probably will when I'm bored enough ;-)
