not a snowday

Everyone on my friends list who lives east of here has been posting about the Snow. All that snow they got, that is keeping them home. And I keep going "What snow? There's no snow, what are you talking about? It's been sunny and clear and it hardly snowed at all that time a week or so ago."

I think I shall forgive myself for this, though, as due to the fallout from last night's script kiddie antics, I didn't stop working until about 2:30 AM. And I was up at shortly after 7.

It hasn't been a good week, no.

Tonight should, in theory, see me at the Alderwood Loews theater to catch the 10:30 showing of the Narnia movie. I'm even less of a fan of the source material than I was of LoTR -- I at least tried to plough through Tolkien's dry prose, unending digressions and lengthy historical notes -- but I have to admit it does look good, and I will be in fine company, so it will be fun.

And now I have been assigned to develop our DoS defense strategy (no comments from the peanut gallery about our not having one already, Daniel) so I shall return to my labours and you, gentle Eastern reader, can go out and huck snowballs at cars.

$holiday party

And I have been asked to remind you all that we are having a $holiday party on December 16 -- that's a week from tomorrow.

$holiday Party
When: Friday, December 16, 2005 at 7:30 PM
Where: My Apartment - 810 E. Denny Way, #201

We would very much appreciate it if people would let us know they are coming so we know to have their presents ready.

Edited to add that dates, companions and friends are very welcome.
