Happy Halloween

yup yup tame to go home an eat all the candy i bought and then tell Bill i gave it all to the little kids....

...which he will believe until he a) reads my blog or b) i puke up all th candy.

a great day for a parade!

so on my desk right now i have the actual ticker tape confetti that was shot out of cannons. it is pretty tissue paper in black white and red.

We watched the parade and threw shredded paper out the office next to ours which had a great view of Jackson and laSalle. So now i have to go back to work after spending the better part of the day celebrating (we also had cake because one of my coworker just won a huge humanitarian award.)

I would attach a picture but all i can find is streaming video... oh well.

Edited at 3:41: HA HA! I have found pictures. This are the pics from Diane's camera phone. The ones of the street she was actually hanging her arm awkwardly out the window (yes we have windows that open up) and giving her husband and the rest of us a heart attack that she would drop it and kill an innocent parade watcher. Lucky for us she has more coordination than the norm and she got some decent pics.

Edited 4:13: These next Pics are from John, who actually went to the parade but is tall enought to get picture even four people back from the curb.

...

Miers quits while she's ahead.

yup RJ's prediction is coming true...

And the sox won... for the first time in my life i am living in a city which has won a championship. Yay!

I am home sick today and i am considering going back to bed... that or watching the quality DVD Cinderella

go sox go

see sox go!

go sox go!

yay sox!

Anyway weekend sum-up: Mary was here and we had a wonderful time galavanting about town at her friends' wedding and making trouble for our husbands wallets in Naperville. I caught a moment or two fo the ND BYU game... the game for a higher calling ;-) I must say, though, that the real winner of satuday's games was Mitul Patel who travel down south to watch this pitiful attempt at a football score. Though some may say it was an exciting game, I am hard pressed to believe it.

Mary's wedding pictures are up on pictage.com under Gurry. my fav is #387.

In other news we have finally done it--we finally fucked up the environment so much that we are on tropical depression alpha.
