...jan 3...

well, it is now 2008. holy cow, last year was long and short all at the same time. so much happened last year, for me at least. and for the world. it is amazing how much stuff you can pack into a day and how much history is taking place in a day. interesting to think about.
well, on new years eve, the singles dance (be jealous those of you that are married, not really, i wish i was married) was at our building. it was the entire region. for the entire region, not that many people showed up, sadly. singles dances down here have a tendancy to be terrible. mostly because of the music. the dj's think they are the ish and try and dj like they are in a club or something and play crappy techno the whole night. thank goodness our dj didn't, though he did try and show off his dj skill by running several songs together that were really bad. he did that a couple of times with techno songs and then latino songs. it was annoying. but he did play alot of popular music to. everyone likes to dance to popular music. much better. it was pretty good. decorating it was a beast though. rachel may and i figured out how to do a canopy of stars that actually worked out really well, if i do say so myself. it turned out a lot better than i thought it was going to. we had a bunch of stars left over too that i think would have made it look that much better, but we didn't really have time. oh well. all in all, it was a fun dance, even though i didn't dance a whole lot. i prefer to watch. i am not a huge dancer. and there were a bunch of pictures taken too, but not by me. i had a bunch of friends take pictures. i will have to get them from them.
and we took a family picture on christmas day. i will need to post some of those. some are pretty funny. my dad had me pose for the camera while he was trying to figure out the settings on the camera....yeah... it was interesting. so those of you who have been asking for an update, this is it for now. i will post the pics when i get them.
