Does pink count?

Well, at least you don't sparkle. Hopefully.

I can tan, though I tend to stay indoors so much my mother usually has more of a tan than I do. and I have Thai ancestry on my father's side.

I tan incredibly easy and never really burn even without sun tan lotion, though to be fair I do live in the north of England.

When I lived in Florida I was either red (sunburned) or white (normal color). Now in NY, I used to tan now I just get dark freckles.

Almost forgot to share. This past Saturday was another milestone. 5 years clean and sober.

I'll bask in that for a moment, THEN tell you about getting propositioned by the transvestite!

Good for the five years. No, great for the five years! Keep it up, Mark!

Congrats.

Quit drinking almost a year ago. Don't miss it all that much, unless its right in front of me.

Right on, Mark. Cheers.

Well Dad's job is really going through now. Contract all sorted, company car coming soon (brand new almost top range Astra, Score!) and...well. House is much happier now.

Congrats, bro. Maybe the TV was just trying to help you celebrate?

Congrats on that too. (Nice little car, BTW.)

The new model looks excellent. Plus it gets cruise control, which dad has been dying for. Plus he pays absolutely nothing except the diesel expense: insurance, tax and servicing is paid for by FCA.

It has been long overdue, so now... it has returned.

Was it the six-month-point that brought it back?

Planning ahead is all...

Plus I think it would be funny to see Martok in a Santa Hat.

"Come right up, right here, face the Greatest Klingon Leader in a Century and stare him down!"
*First guy walks up, sees the hat, laughs then Martok crushes his chest with a Bat'leth.*

Bleh, my community college sucks. Registration opened toady...but only in person. Online registration doesn't open till tomorrow for some random reason. So I figured I might as well try to fight the lazy urge to wait and swung on by...and holy hell I have never seen such a line outside an amusement park. To call things a mess there is an understatement, they are swamped beyond reason and understaffed to absurdity.

So yeah, I can wait a day.
