Hmm, there's not enough hours in the weekend to do all the stuff I really need to do. Heck, I doubt there's enough hours in the week to do everything that one would want.
Anyway, I'll see what I can do about the site, and then get ready for the party.

Laz and I went to a Christmas work party. Originally, MF was supposed to go, but he had surprise vistors this weekend and the ticket fell into my hands. I figured that it would be free food for me, I went along for the ride. (Actually, I was giving the ride since Laz wanted to drink.)
There was a lot of food, and so many people! I only recognized a couple dozen or so faces, but it was pretty good. Free food always makes things better no? (Apparently free booze is even better?)
Oh yes, before going, Dangerman wanted to go to Futureshop to pick up an X-box. I was already on my way up so I decided to get my aeroplan card to get some points, but by the time I went back home, picked up Laz and headed to the store, Dangerman had already gotten his wares. Argh! Tell me these things sooner!
Anyhoo, at least I got the alcohol. (Although I forgot my Air Miles card.)
We ended up going to Laz's palce where we tried out some Half Life 2. It's a pretty nifty game!

Whoa, last night was awfully strange.
I had dropped Laz off at home and played some more Half Life 2. I got so dizzy driving the air car, that I decided to go home. This was around three-thirty in the morning.
Just as I was turing out of the corner from the hosue, I came up to a bunch of people standing in the middle of the road, so I hit the brakes.
With the car stopped, I noticed that there were a lot of cars on the side of the road. They were all police cruisers. Doh. One of the cops in the group started walking up to my car.
I rolled down the window and he told me that the speed limit was forty on this street. (I didn't know how fast I was going because I wasn't looking at my speedometer.) He also asked for my license, insurance and ownership. I had them on me of course, so he looked it over, asked where I was coming from, reitterated the fact that the speed limit was forty ("The roads are icing up and they're getting slippery.") and then let me go.
I decided not to ask what they were doing there. I drove off (noticing a few civilians grouped further down the road) and then headed home.
Halfway home, I saw flashing lights in the distance and came across a large temporary sign that stated that the road was closed ahead. What?
When I got up to the intersection, I saw that the road was blocked off by pylons and a police cruiser. I figured that there was some sort of investigation going on, so I took the detour.
On the last leg home, I saw yet another police car sitting on the opposite side of the road. Two actually. one had a traffic directional signal on, and the other was parked next to it. On my side there was parked a tow truck. I passed through there slowly but wasn't stopped.
When I got to the final traffic light, the two cars that had stopped at the red were both police cruisers!
Boy the cops were out in force tonight.

I remember something from the party. When we were going to get our first drinks, we bumped into I who looked at the two of us and said something to the effect of:
"I knew there was something going on between the two of you. I'm not the only one."
Mind you, it was a long night, and I do have a tendency of forgetting things from the earlier parts of the evening (and middle, and late)..
