Ok. It's 4:20 and we just got on the freeway. Friday traffic sucks!

Christmas Pau!

Well, Christmas 2006 is coming to an end.  Ed got home at Noon today so that was nice.  We put the turkey into the oven, then took the dogs for a walk.  After we got home, we fixed the sides.  Nothing special.  Stuffing, Green Beans and Red Spuds.  For dessert, we still have tons of cookies, and Debbie brought over a tray of sweets.  We also baked a Pumpkin Pie.  Talk about Diet.

I got a lot of undershirts, socks & underwear this year.  Ed got me socks and a 250gb Hard drive!  Just what I wanted.  So, this weekend, I will be moving all of my music files off of both computers and putting them on the external.

I can't believe another Christmas has come and gone.  I'll leave the tree & decorations up until next Saturday. After all, I have to leave the decoration up & through New Years.

Called home today to wish Mom a Merry Xmas and to remind her to tape the Kouhaku.  The line-up is pretty lame this year, but I want to see the costumes of Sachiko & Mikawa Kenichi and to see what song Ayu is going to sing.  I'm thinking it's going to be "Jewel".  She ususally does one of her ballads.

Merry Duckmas

Merry Christmas! 

These Ducks are available at Oriental Trading Company

I Can See Clearly Now!

I finally took the plunge.  I had Lasik surgery last Thursday and so far, my vision is 20/20!  Cool beans.  I had the surgery done in Vancouve, BC by Dr. Lin at Pacific Laser Eye Center.  I highly recommend this clinic.  The surgery was quick and painless.  The staff was very friendly and the office was FULL of people.  This guy is just raking in the dollars, eh?  I guess he chose the right profession.  There is a lot of eyedrops involved with post surgery routine!

Anyway, I went up Thursday morning, had the surfgery at 2pm and was on my way back tot he hotel by 3pm.  There is a follow-up the next morning and by lunchtime, I was on my way back to Washington state.  And no, I didn't go up there on my own!

New Name

Nothing new to add.  I just did a name change.  So goodbye MDB world & Welcome to the Duck House A Go Go!
I wish I had some fun things to add, but I just don't have anything at the moment.

Currently on a retro J-Pop kick.  It'a all about Akina Nakamori.  I found a cool site dedicated to the Icon.

CJ's Akina Shrine

She was one of my favorite artist (actually still is!) of all time.   I need to track down the cd "Spoon" because i have fallen in love witht he song "Your Birthday" which is the first track on the cd.  Teher's also a station on live365 that plays her music.  Cool.  Anyway, if you like J-pop and have never heard of  Ms. Nakamori, I suggest you check out her music!  Very sexy, Very cool.

New Year's Eve

I hope everyone has a fun and safe New Year's Eve tonight.  I just have thre friends coming up from Seattle.  We are doing a cookie bake and then bringing in the New Year in Mount Vernon with fun & merriment.  Happy 2005!

Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays everyone.  It's been a long time since i've posted.  My bad.  I've been too lazy.  I did finally upgrade to Windows XP.  I hope everyone has a safe, and Merry Holiday, Christmas, Kwanzaa, or whatever.... Be good.   Here's a picture of my tree.

Hot Hot Hot

Whew. What a scoarcher of a day. It got to 94 up in Mount Vernon. Humid & Hot, the worst combination. I went to see "Bourne Supremecy" today to get out of the heat. Awesome chase scene. I adore Matt Damon. Good weekend fun movie.

Tootsie came up to see me on his way back from his mom's in B-ham. We did the usual shopping trip to Chez Target. He's planning his 40th b-day party so we went to the Dollar Store to see if we could find the tackiest party favors possible and we were quite successful! I think my favorite is the $1 "French" perfume!

We also went to Va'Lue Village but has no success in finding anything remotely cool or tacky.

Went home and Ian was over. I introduced him to Tootsie and we talked about the normal stuff...clothes, fashion & bitching. We are taking Ian shopping at the end of August to update him on his wardrobe. It's What Not To Wear - MDB & Tootsie style! Fabu.

It's still scoarching. Oh yeah, Moki got his hair cut short and now he looks like a shaved little piggy! Ed loves the look but I still say he (Moki) looks funny.

MDB

Slacking

With all this nice weather going on in Washington, I have not had the energy to write anything in the MDB world. Yeah, like I wrote anything worth reading on this site. Ha!

Today I went on a picnic with Ed & Moki to Bayview park. Lovely day. WE took some pics before the batteries ran out so maybe I'll post some...but maybe not!

Here hoping for a sunny Hump day!
