>>Damn baby. You frustrate me, I know you're mine...<< John Mayer's "Your Body is a Wonderland"

Irvine
My family took a road trip down to Irvine to visit some family friends this past weekend. With my mom driving, the trip took us 8 hours. I sat in the back (where the cool cats ride ;o) with my brother listening to about 50+ songs on his new MD player. Of the selections, i began to take a liking to John Mayer's music. Ironically enough, I especially enjoyed YBW (see song quoted above). For some reason, I didn't much like the song when Trissie played it in our house. Go figure.

During these times
Lately, money has been the most pressing issue. What with siblings and friends buying new toys after Christmas, I can't help but think about going shopping myself. Alas, I invested in a road bike a month ago, and my spending ethos is centered around no spending.

But Joanie needs new pants.

I finally baked those gingerbread cookies that Audra and I had planned to make right after finals.
