Facebook.

OK..I've done it..I've gone and joined facebook. WOW. what an amazing system that is, I can see why it's replaced MySpace as THE social site. within minutes I was connected to people I haven't seen in years.. one of the best surprises for me was that they import blogs..called notes on facebook...so I am having THEM import my blog from here as opposed to the normal system of having multiply crosspost....I'm pretty happy now..my blogs are now based on Multiply, and crossposted to LiveJournal, Blogger, and imported to Facebook. Very cool. They even imported the videos I've posted which neither LJ or Blogger do. WOW.

The Designated Drivers Revenge-pictures

Chel's Birthday. A night probably never remembered...(hee hee)


We had fun! Chel and Sandy had a lot of fun. I enjoyed being there with them. I was the only guy in the bar with two dates! how fun is that? I had two dates and my wife was away! (Hi Mrs. Hughes)

While I don't want to publicize the whole night..here are the highlights (truthfully I ran out of memory on the camera..silly me I left the card in the computer and could only take 4 shots).

I'll say that I had them both delivered safely to Chel's house and I am assuming Chel at least made it to bed. I hope Sandy did too... poor sleepy thing.

As for the other sleepy looking woman in the picture (supported by Chel's hand)..her husband tucked her onto the couch and she never came out with us.

And I am assuming at this point that the ladies have mostly recovered and gotten rides to recover their vehicles.

Today: Double Birthdays!

Rowan left for Erie first thing this morning, driving into a blizzard of course. She called on every leg of the trip to assure me all was well. apparently the only bad part was where Route 80 and 79 intersect..a short period of white out, followed by beautiful clear skies and roads all the way to Erie, with some more snow as she got into the city. Overall not bad. Her weekend trip has left me to my own devices and I've done pretty well at filling it up with parental duties and a bit of friend visiting.

TODAY is my son Morgan's 17th birthday and as usual we decided to go for pizza at Facia Luna Pizzeria. They have a wood fired oven that produces some excellent pizzas. Our favorite is the Margherita style. Crushed tomatoes and basil topped with mozzarella..simple. yummy. A little later today we'll pick up his GF Julia and one of his other friends will be stopping by.

Do you see how hard I had to work to get a real smile out of him? It was pretty fun!

Later today I'll be heading out with Chel , today is her birthday too, and somehow over the years I've managed to be with her on her birthday fairly often. (She's on my friends list..stop by and say "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!"

Also somewhere in today's social agenda I managed to make some pots. a couple boards of bowls. I'm going to see if I can make another board full before Chel is ready for me.

Tomorrow there will be a lot more pottery making,

Always work to do.... but it's good to have fun too!
