Get Up On!

[hixx]

Things are good, I'm feeling good, lets do some get up ons!

1. Not smoking, 5 weeks and a day. It hasn't been easy, but boy do I smell like a peach!

2. The Mark the Bird sandwich at Beans and Bagels. This is my new favorite delicious sandwich, and I know a lot about sandwiches.

3. Beyond the Limit on Discovery, come on people, you only have one more episode to see Mojnes Jensen make his summit bid for Everest!

4. The yogurt parfait at the new Foodstuffs in the Merchandise Mart, it has been yummy chunks of strawburries!

5. The best book I've ever read ever in the land of ever, "The Edge of Sadness" by Edwin O'Connor. If you love beautiful books, this is the most beautiful.

Snow!- Snow people, snow balls, snow forts, snow days, sledding. It's December, so snow is still awesome. It has exactly two weeks before it starts becoming a pain in the ass, and depressing.

Hockey!- Speaking of snow, did you know that hockey is awesome? It is! Plus the Blackhawks aren't bad this year, and they're games are cheap to go to! And Bill Wirtz is dead!

Egg Nog!- Christmas is upon us, nog it up.

Wait, gena, what's the honey on sunnyside? hmmm?

And thanks everyone on the smoking thing...its fun to be got up on.

That Mark the Bird sandwich really is unbelievable.

AND YAY CRESCENT!

Oh, and does anyone have a facial moisturizer I could get up on? I'm flaky.

Congratulations hixx on the not smoking and congratulations Crescent on the new job! That's awesome!

Get Up On:

Netflix: They are the source of about 85% of my entertainment (I watch a lot of DVDs!).

Holiday Time Off: I'll have 11 days off in a row and I can't wait!

Chocolate: I have to include chocolate. I have it in one form or another just about every day (yes, it is a terrible addiction).

Taromasalata. Greek caviar. Stir in a little virgin olive oil, eat it with some warm pita or nan. Makes a great alternative to hummus.

I, too, am up on Everest: Beyond the Limit! I can't believe Tim did his summit day with a broken right hand. That's nuts! I'm glad he made it, but also I felt really bad for his teammate and the sherpa(s), who had to be put in more danger because he wouldn't tell them he broke his hand.

I'm also up on Rock Band.

Get up on the online vocabulary game freerice.com (http://www.freerice.com/index.php)!<O:p
For each word you get correct, they make a donation of 20 grains of rice to the United Nations World Food Program.<O:p<O:p

I heard about it yesterday on NPR's Morning Edition, and think its pretty much the coolest/best thing ever. <O:p

YEAH!

oh I know! But it also just goes to show you that they don't know what the hell once you get to the Death Zone! I mean, they were all pushing him to go and he's screaming "I BROKE MY HAND" and they're all "FIGHT THROUGH THE PAIN". That was very dramatic.
