So the semester is almost over, this coming week is finals week and I don't have too much going on so I'm starting to relax a little. Sue on the other hand is hip deep in student papers, but good thing she luuuuuvs reading student papers or she might be kind of annoyed at the moment. Here you can see a little of what I've been working on, some of my design projects and final prints for photography and Saracat helping me with my philosophy homework. It's been fun and I'm looking forward to diving into next semester, but first: a nice relaxing winter break!

I seem to have a new song done every time I post one of these blogs, and the more I think about it, it's probably the main reason I post them (just kidding, sort of). So check out new tune BwBB when you get a chance. I kind of like www.Soundcloud.com, as my new go-to music posting sight but I still post on MySpace, Garageband and others.

We're settling nicely into our new house. The break will provide us more opportunity to do some of the work we need to do on the place and to at least put away some of the piles of crap that have been sitting upstairs waiting for a home. We even had our first party, thrown for members of the latin and greek class that Sue attends every other Saturday at Eighth Day Books a

block or so down the road. Hanging out with that wacky bunch has made me want to study latin or greek or both with them, but I must stay focused.

Pigs! Pigs pigs pigs! Guinea, that is! That's right, we have ourselves some new pigs, names: Kirk and Spock. They are youngins but getting big and fat quickly. Sue is in love. Sara is terrified.

We hope that you all had a great Thanksgiving and we're sorry we didn't get to see more of you over the holiday. We did manage to visit New York for a whirlwind few days to attend Sue's friends Mary and Greg's wedding. We even got into the city to check out the awesome Tim Burton

exhibit at the MOMA. Normally I would never go to an event like that on the day after

Thanksgiving or any other special touristy day of the year, so standing shoulder to shoulder with a million other museum goers and shuffling like cattle through the exhibit detracted slightly from the experience, but it's a great show (open through April 26, so go see it if you haven't yet!). The wedding was very nice, the reception held at Lands End in Sayville, right on the water, beautiful setting. Sorry, I forgot my camera so

I don't have any images but we had fun and thanks to TJ and

Shannon for hanging with us and letting us stay at their place. As always, one of the most exciting things we did while we were in New York was eat: gyros, bagels, pizza, sushi, soulfood, we covered most of it. I wanted to eat at a Puerto Rican restaurant that I liked on 51st and 9th but it's gone now. Apparently all the Boricua have left New York and been replaced by Dominicans. Oh well, same food

basically. Now I just need to re-calibrate my internal GPS to

take me to all the DR restaurants.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday season with friends and family and that we'll get a chance to see you soon!
