@vkimo that is just too freakin' awesome!

@vkimo: Agreed. A very nice way to get into the spirit of things. A bit on the crowded side for me though.

Went into the city today to experience the Great Dickens Christmas Faire  

The admission price was steep but it was a blast. They have the complex (Cow Palace in SF) set up like its nighttime in Victorian Era England. There's store fronts, stages with dances and performers, food, crafts etc. Beautiful women everywhere with corsets cutting off the circulation to their heads haha I loved the vibe and it really puts you in the spirit. Here's a clip from 2011

That looks really awesome. Wish there was something like that in my area.

One of the perks about living in the most expensive place in California I guess. It was crowded though, the site said they limited ticket sales to keep things comfortable but they kept cramming us in. 

A local church used to do something similar.  They would transform their large basement into the streets of Bethlehem.  You would end up roaming the streets and shops of Bethlehem on the day of Christ's birth.  When you went in, they would give you several gold coins, and you used those to purchase things from the food vendors like hot cider, cookies, and other goodies.  It was always pretty neat.

So, you wanna know about my day? Do you really want to know about my day? OK! *Cocks his shotgun* It was pretty cool, actually I mean, we have just recovered from a 17-hour electrical outage, but nothing seems to be broken... and that's all that really matters.

Well today was pretty quiet for me. Did some cleaning, writing, more cleaning, and am single again. Thankfully it was mutual so no bad blood and we are still friends. 

I took a final today and received a B, so that was good. I did some packing and writing when I got home.

We all have a doppelganger out there somewhere. Little did I know that mine was big into pawning stuff.

The Tivo box was on the fritz this past week, so we finally got a replacement yesterday. Hopefully we won't run into this problem again.
