Double true!

How's it going my people? Eric and I are gearing up for the big trip and are literally counting down the hours til we leave. Not sure when (or where) the next time I will get to blog. I've put together some extra fun stuff for my last post of 2005 however.

Did you know you can look at what you're going to eat on an airplane before you go? I can't wait to take pictures of the crazy things we will eat on our 12+ hour flight!! (Author's note: The above food would be what we would eat if we were flying from Seoul to Tokyo.)

Things I plan to do on trip:
Read!!! (Harry Potter 6, you will be my bitch!)
See my best girls
Get super tan (but not atomic tan like last time)
Spend Christmas Eve in Korea
Spend New Year's Even on a beach
Meet New and cool people from other cultures
Drink a Singapore Sling at the Raffles Hotel

Another gem before I leave...did anyone see SNL on Saturday night? I almost pissed my pants laughing at

this

A close second? The "Deleted Scenes" Episode of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I want some Hypnorims for my car.

Keep on keepin' your fingers crossed for my novel. Someone requested a full manuscript, which I sent out yesterday. Here's hoping I have an agent by the time I return.

Best wishes and a happy new year to everyone!!!

I love this.

I mean I can't actually imagine wearing it anywhere, or what occaision it would be good for, except maybe Courtney and Eric's 4th Annual White Elephant Party this Sunday, but it still cracks my shit up.

Shopping for a Pay Check

It sounds glam, but in reality is not so fun. The entertainment industry is so messed up that we have to go around and buy gifts for people that can already afford everything anyway. However, it's kind of fun to go to Beverly Hills and spend money in stores I couldn't afford.

Also, a total bonus, me and the Hubs get to go to the West Wing holiday party. What's up, Alan Alda and Jimmy Smits?

I got another "nibble" on the novel on Tuesday. Keep your fingers crossed.

PS EB, get some pictures of those cute kids up online!!!
PPS Athens-folk, if I sent you an e-vite to our White Elephant party, would you write a funny response? (I live for e-vite.)

Everything's coming up Courtney!

So, many of you probably do not know that I've been working on a novel off and on for the past year or so and it's finally done and I'm at that stage in the process where I have to find an agent. It's not that fun and there's a lot of rejection, but I'm putting myself out there. So, since I couldn't wait one more day (EB -- I still want your editing!!), I started sending out my query letter. Then, I checked my e-mail and someone wants to see my synopsis and first 3 chapters!!!!!! I can't even believe it. I know it's a long process, but I figure for Day One, it's not so bad.

That's all, I'm just giving myself a public pat on the back.
