GoOd TiMeS!

The holidays now seem a blur to me but was one filled with many good times and memories. It always helps when you can celebrate just about everything with your fam and friends. Here's some 'famous last words' and favorite moments:

Ferrero Rocher's are someone's best friend. A colleague at work can always be seen with an unwrapped gold wrapper or telling us she's just ate six of them...in a minute.

The consensus for how everyone spent their holidays: EATING. No wonder resolutions have to be made...or at least a more healthy start...let's just say, bad habits die hard.

Boy asks supermarathoner to help him train for the half-marathon on new year's eve, a night he was ready to get his drink on. Supermarathoner was more than willing and said that they could start with a run on new year's day. Boy quickly said with no hesitation: "NO" and walks away. Yes, training has evidently began...

"We were pretty drunk, but your drunkenness overshadowed us and your friend overshadowed you." Somewhere along the night, there was even a 'can you walk in a straight line before you get behind the wheel' test. Thinking back...that was dumb...as if a drunk person can see straight to begin with and judge you!

From said more inebriated friend after jumping out of the cab: "I lost my phone...I lost my pHONE...I LOST MY PHONE!!" It took awhile for the rest of us to register what she's going on about...hehe..unfortunately, none of us remembered what color cab we got in...

"Don't you remember? You punched me and poured your drink down my back..."

Silence at the dim sum table for the first ten minutes when the food arrives the day after new year's eve. I'm assuming everyone needed some greasy food in their system to calm their tummies besides me!

"And one time at MATH camp..." you know the rest...

"Hey, she's actually King Kong's Barbie doll!!!"

To take advantage of a nice day out, we decided to go for a "run" along the Seawall. Supermarathoner and his girlfriend marathoner started to run the entire distance while we decided to "jog" the opposite way hoping to bump into them and then turning around to meet them at the finish line. From a long distance away, we see this person running pretty darn fast and wondering if it could be supermarthoner...yah, we quickly got out of the way to let him pass.

Meeting up with some super old friends is always a hoot...especially when you realize that what you say no matter how it comes out always ends up leaving everyone in stitches. Glad some things never change.

Here's to plenty good times this year. I also like to say not to forget to cherish great friends and create wonderful memories. A wonderful friend of my inebriated friend passed away suddenly on new year's eve. I'm sure she's greatly missed, a great gal with a great heart. She's in a better place now. Here's to her!
