and everything looks beautiful, when you're young and pretty...
not that I'm pretty.
Not that I'm necessarily YOUNG anymore either...
...
bah.

Well, today I'm off to the Big Apple, the Big Enchilada... the... the... oh, never mind...
Manhattan, here I come!
I'm really quite excited. I'd be even more excited if I wasn't feeling stuffy.
I think I'm fighting off a cold that comes and goes via different symptons (late last week it was a sore throat, now I've got a runny nose and sneezies :P ).
That said, for better or for worse (hopefully for better), I still feel pretty much OK enough to go take a Jet Blue to New York City at 5:00 to attend tommorow's NYWEA conference (which is actually going on Monday - Wednesday, but my club, UBEESC, is only going down for Tuesday)

I'm leeeeaving on a Jet Blue
Hope I enjoy the city, too.
It's so snowy.. I could cry....

The plan is to be at the airport about 3:00 for a 4:50 flight out (if the weather clears up, later if it doesn't :P ) and get picked up by my cousin Freddie (half of why I'm excited to go. I love hanging out with Cousin Freddie!), sleep over at his pad for the night, get up earlier than I'd like, take the mass transit down to the hotel the conference is at, hang out at the conference until UBEESC leaves for it's 8:00 flight back to Buffalo. Get my car out of long term parking and go home.
That's the plan at least. I'll write about what happens when I get back... probably Wednesday.

In other news, it's time to tell y'all my weight. I'm quite happy because I actually showed progress this week! Today's weight is... *drumroll* 255 lbs!
Yes, that's right, I have now lost 45 lbs.
55 more to go :)
Yay me!
*does a dance*

What else?
*thinks*
What about that Superbowl, eh? That was fun! An all-out brawl (personally, I do prefer the shoot-outs, but it was a good game nonetheless)
The commercials were lacking somewhat.
There were some good ones...
Specifically most of the Bud Commercials.
The E*Trade Musical Monkey
The retirement firm (the Barry Bonds / Hank Aaron commercial)
The H&R Block commercial was cute too...
The pepsi commercial...
wow, it sucked.
Last year's Pepsi commercials were sooo much better.
Ah well.
No good FedEx commercials either. No anything spectacular from the car agencies...
The Bud commercial with the Clidesdales (sp?)... wow. That was... that was good. Go Bud!

That's all I can think of to post.
Check y'all laters, dorks y dorquittas!

I liked the Bud commercial where the Southern guy tells everyone how he's doing. And the Visa commercial with six degrees of Kevin Bacon had me in hysterics.

So yeah, there were some good ones. Alas, the Pepsi commercials made me want to scratch out my eyeballs but I was too busy covering my ears.

I had forgotten about the Clydesdale commercial. You're right, that was good. Speaking of tributes, I haven't seen anyone talking about the U2 halftime show. Was that not awesome?

Have fun in NYC!

Yes, the U2 show was pretty sweet.

I hope to have fun at NYC.
It'd be nice if I didn't feel freaking congested, tho
Would be nice if it weren't snowing too :P

The U2 show was my favorite part. :) The funny thing is that I had just gotten back from my retreat and was hanging out in the church narthex with some of the other retreaters... and when 'Beautiful Day' played we all got really excited... it was the theme song for the retreat. :)
