Due to pure peer pressure, I joined Facebook.  I went on to simply bug my online buddies and to have access to some pictures of theirs.  I was quite surprised to find Dave’s entire family is on there.  Next, a girl I hadn’t spoken to since high school sent me a friend request and I’ve reconnected with a few people I haven’t spoken to in 10+ years.  This time around with Facebook has been way more positive.  The first time I signed up I couldn’t find anyone and I was just generally annoyed and removed myself.  So far I’ve reconnected with three old friends with whom I used to be really close to but hadn’t spoken to in years.  I’ve gotten a chance to get to know my in-laws a lot better and I know what is going on in Idaho practically every day.  I’ve also gotten a chance to get to know some of the lovely ladies I’ve meet on Xbox a little better.  All around, it has been a good thing. 

This weekend should be fun.  We will have Ryan and Jillian and Dave is picking up Carissa to spend the weekend with us as well.  I see a whole lot of You’re in the Movies being played in my near future.   I will be sure to post the movies sometime Sunday or Monday.  They are sure to be something to behold.  Perhaps I will have a chance to complete the DLC on Fallout 3 while Dave watches the Super Bowl. 

Saturday, Bowie turned two.  The family celebrated it by leaving her alone all day and going to LA to visit museums and the Griffith Park Observatory.  Jillian and I decided to so something special for our baby puppy so we took her to the park and then to Three Dog Bakery where they make healthy dog treats that look like sickening sweet people food.  The pictures were just too funny not to share. 

Pictures are to the right. 

For Christmas Santa brought Jillian the game You’re in the Movies.  We had fun.  I think Dave did too even though he says he doesn’t want to play it.  Here are the two movies we made.  The first one is Me, Me and Me.  Jillian and I didn’t play the mini games too well so when the movie was made we looked really funny and HUGE.  We did much better on the second move The Scared Witness. 

I thought I was going to do better about keeping this updated, but I failed miserably.   I’ve also been really bad about pulling the camera out.  I couldn’t say when I took a picture last.  I feel bad about that.  I know there are many memories I have let slip by. 

I am still really enjoying my job.  Luckily the slump in the industry hasn’t really hit our company too hard.  Dave’s company is feeling the pain though.  We don’t know what will happen there.  Part of him wants to get laid off so he is forced to take a different path in his life.  I support that since I know he never wanted to be in construction.  We will just have to wait and see what happens.

I was also on an updating rampage today.  I updated my messenger at home, I signed up for Twitter, I’ve signed up for the Xbox Gamerchix Chat box thing, and after I’m done with this I will sign back up on Facebook so I can view friends pictures.  I used to have an account but I was tired of keeping track of multiple sites.  I guess I’m over that now.    Tah for now.  I will try to be better with updating this and with taking more pictures.  I also have some videos from the game You're in the Movies to share when I hook the Xbox back up.
