My car hasn't died, but it is moribund. Keep your fingers crossed that it lives awhile longer.
I'm being sent to Tahiti by my office sometime in February. Should be fun. It'll be even more interesting if they bring me back.
I won four nights accomodation in Great Britain at the office Christmas party. I have to be one of the two people to go. For those of you who remember my housemates at Waldeck Street, I'm taking "Snow" -- She asked that I not put her real name on the web -- who lived on the top floor. She's on her second passport with no stamps in it. We'll be going over our mutual birthday weekend (Memorial day weekend: hers is on Saturday, mine's on Monday). Since my office didn't see fit to provide airfare, my parents are using their airmiles to give me mine as my birthday present. If anyone wants to contribute to Snow's (named for the Snow White costume she wore to Arisia), please let me know. I'll be coming into Boston a day early to say hi to everyone and to make sure that Snow and I share the wonderful warmth of Her Majesty's Customs and Passport Control together. I may get a day at the other end as well.
I'm taking a Yoga class again, and I've done my first supported handstand. It's cool.
Today I went to LACMA to catch the final day of the Pissarro/Cezanne exhibit. It was lovely, though crowded. There were several pieces that I wanted postcards of, but very few were available. I couldn't even find a book of the exhibit.
The ticket allowed me to visit the rest of the museum too, and I went to visit my favorite dancing Ganesha (he looks likes he's really boogieing) and a couple of beautiful Roman copies of Greek originals in the Ancient Art building. An annoying noise drove me out of the Japanese pavilion, but I'll go back.
I also viewed an exhibit called An Abundant Harvest of Sun which were works by an abstract West Coast artist named Lee Mullican.
