So much to do..
Man, how do I decide what I am going to do.. and why don't I have more weekends to do them in!
Here is what I have in mind:
-This weekend, Star Trek convention. No debate there. That is where I will be.
-Next weekend, possible long weekend if I take Friday off of work. 4 days! If I do that, do I
-Go to Kelowna to spend time with my Grandma, cause I am well overdue for that
-Chill in town and work on the Friday to save that time for a different weekend to take off
-Weekend of July 9-11. Was going to go to San Fran, but won't now as I can't afford it. Can go to Seattle for a car drifting event with work and stay in a hotel for free. But have to find a way down there.... and maybe take *that* Friday off of work?
-Weekend of 16-18.... I know something is going on here but I can't remember what...
-Weekend of 23-25. Since I joined that Danish Sisterhood.. they are having a members BBQ on the 24th which would be fun BUT I can also go to San Diego for the comicon.. I have places to stay and everything.. and I sure won't get to go to that when I'm in Denmark.. but I will have my share of Danes.. :)
-Weekend of 30-1 I should head over to the island to see my brother and his family, as it is my nephew's birthday the week after but I will be in Hawaii instead!
Man, I do get around don't I.... Maybe that mystery plan for the 16-18 is just sitting at home and not talking to anybody.. that sounds pretty good... hmmmmmm........
Oh, and after Hawaii I don't have any travel plans really... except for maybe DK on March 10?

Trek in 4 days!!
So Sunday ended up being sold out... boo! Thats what i get for waiting for friends.. I should have just booked my own stuff. The crap part of that is that Sunday is the ONLY day that Captain Kirk is there... so..... I did what any other faithful trekkie would do.. i bought an all weekend pass for over twice the amount of the Sunday one.
I figure.. I have a Ceti Eel tattooed on my head... whats a few hundred dollars at this point, to MEET WILLIAM SHATNER. It's not much, I can assure you.
I simply cannot wait for this epic weekend to get here. I'm even borrowing some fancy camera lenses from a friend for my Canon so I can get some good (better?) shots of Bill and Lenny while they are doing their talks in the auditorium.
Boo-Yah!

Jeg forstår ikke..
so... in the fancy world of iphones.. i thought id find some (free) apps to help me learn some danish on the go.
of course, they give you a couple lists to work from, and then you have to purchase the rest.
the first one i installed came with "fruits" and "weather". simple enough, really.
however, the remaining lists will cost me $5.99. i dont think so!
not when there is free material out there..
the second one is more... shall we say.. interesting.. it also comes with two lists, but the remaining ones are only $0.99! sounds like a deal right? well, i may just have to get them to see how the rest go..
the first list is "essentials" which is just that. your hellos and goodbyes and how are yous and where is this.
standard stuff. essential.
the other list is "flirting".. can any of you danes tell me if this is *really* what i need to know about flirting in Denmark?

Also, I am so paying $80 to meet William Shatner and get his autograph.
Go ahead and judge!!
It will look fabulous next to my autographed pictures of Will Wheaton and Leonard Nimoy.
