Looking Forward to 2006 - Page 2

cstephens · 12-28-2005, 11:45 AM

We actually have real travel plans this year. We're spending a week in New York in May, pretty much camped out on Broadway for the most part, I think. Then in September, it's the multi-day Worldcon in Anaheim.

Travel: to LA in February and late August 2006, both pleasure trips (with only a little work/hobby stuff in between)

Moving: Back to Northern California in May/June

Job: Who knows? I have leads and contacts all over the place in SF, so I hope that I will have no real down time. Gotta pay my bills! :-(

Health: On a new health regimen, good food, exercise and hopefully weight loss!

Culture shock will be moving back with my old roomie. Even if that is temporary, it's going to be very different.

I had resolved not to go to NZ in 2006, and then this little band decided they'd pop in for a concert, so now I'm heading over in March. The show is March 18, so I'll be in Auckland for that. I'll do some touring of the North Island in the preceeding week, and visit my sister, BIL, and the cutest nephew ever the week before that. I also will be getting a tour of Weta, which I am very excited about.

The brother of a good friend has also been stalking them. The only place he's been out of the country is to a show in Canada, but he's seen them about 12 or 13 times (at least) in the States and has apparently gotten almost all of their autographs by hanging out by the outside stage door. When I had dinner with the friend last night, she mentioned that he's considering going to see them in Japan...

Yes, they're really good about coming out and saying hello. Signing things and shaking hands. The only one I haven't met in person is Larry.

I haven't given it much thought, I rarely do prefering to take things as they come. So far, the only concrete thing I'm looking forward to is our trip to Alaska to meet our new sister-in-law and forthcoming brand new baby nephew. That's going to be exciting.

Alaska. As for the rest....dunno.

Each year is an adventure, it seems...

It looks like I'm going to have to move. Bah.

My apt is going condo, which means I have to buy or get out. Buying this place would be incredibly foolish, which means I have to get out.
