Just ordered a SD card and some (e.g. 40) batteries. Half will go to sister for my nephew's gift (along with the rechargeables); some will go toward emergency backup for the new camera.

Are these propriety batteries? Staples has free (after refund) AA and AAAs.

I have done precisely zero research about the trip so I have no idea if I need to find something to do in advance for NYE or if we can stumble into a bar and drink until they pour us back out to our hotel mid-morning. I got a couple recommendations from friends and family but I haven't vetted them at all.

I have said this before, thei is a restaurantz calleid http://www.restaurantbalthazar.com/ ( I am tranlating to Catalanglish :D)
The place is very cool and It used to be a locksmith/hardware that was restored.

And I got free delivery to the condo - one of the few nice benefits of the Staples Teacher Rewards program.

The nutcracker is on chanel 12. I have to make a comment on ballet based on the observations of this. Are we really to believe these guys have such monster packages based on the thing the covers it up? Also, is it necessary that the dudes wear such form fitting tights that it goes up the bum crack and forms around their bum cheeks as if they aren't wearing anything??? :eek:

There are additions to the costumes, but I will say that several men I've known in ballet lived up to the costume.

The good news is I'm doing it again tomorrow night ^

I've coughed so hard it's better than doing 500 crunches a day. I'm considering this my holiday weight loss program :rolleyes:

Given that this MNF game is a blowout and I can't sleep in until 930a tomorrow, I'm going to get some sleep.

AH. There is a later flight that is currently schedule to go out earlier than his. I suggested he walk over there and try to get protected onto that one but make sure to not be taken off his current flight.

It's hard to explain WX delays and ATC delays-that allow the later flight to leave before the earlier flight. I know why it happens but I certainly find it dumb.

I wish your friend luck with the LAX people. They are strange and they often don't bother to call/clear standbys. Have you friend stay close to the podium and politely badger them about getting on.

There is viral and bacterial pneumonia.

I'm contagious, which I guess is viral; however I thought that was what I was vaccinated for :confused:

Had a room at the CY Galleria for BL JR and I to go swimming; I said, sorry, maybe we should just wait for HNL :( Her Christmas break has been a big ole bust so far.

Staying out of the hospital is high on my list. I told Plus1 this morning that I hadn't felt this bad since 6th grade when I had pneumonia. I've had it a few times since, but never as bad as they or now. I'm hopeful that rest between now and Thurs. will have me at least okay to fly. Dr. said I should start feeling some better tomorrow. Here's hoping!
