I'm Trying

Between getting back to work and catching up on all the things that were left undone and unbegun I have tried to post all of my pics on Picasa (for the first time) and it hasn't worked. I am getting ready to head to Havasupai for the weekend with 15 of my closest friends (beside all of you) and I hope that it will be as much fun as it was in OBX. Maybe it will be, maybe it won't. Since I don't have a ton of free time right now that I'm not preping for Havasupai with I will just post a few pics.
Best,
Janie






OK. OK.
I figured it out.
Here are my pics. I wish I'd taken more.

Hi, my name is Michelle.

I like the latin dancing. I also like to wear fruit on my head. Care for a banana?

Hi, my name is Derin.

Ladies, if you get the look from me, you know you are in trouble. This is my "you're gonna get it" look. Works every time.

Hi My name is Annelise.

I'm a little skiddish at first so be nice to me or I won't come out of my room.

Hi, my name is Tobias.

But you can call me Toby (or Tobes). I decided to include photos of all the different things I might wear this weekend. The outfit in the bottom right was borrowed from Nate's closet when he was out of town. I think he used to wear it out clubbing when he lived in Amsterdam.

Big Nate's Another Year Older

I think it is important for all in the Dirty South House to know that our beloved organizer extrordinaire has just had a birthday (yesterday, actually)! Although he doesn't want it to be a big deal I thought I'd put together a small tribute here for all to enjoy. Some of these pictures should probably stay hidden for a lifetime because they are not excellent representatives of Big Nate's charm, good looks or character. But, they are posted so all can enjoy his great sense of humor, his sense of adventure and how great he cleans up. If I had digital pictures from the 11 years we've been amigos I would post them, but alas, I only have pics from my visit to Greenville last summer.
Happy Birthday Nathan Peter - you really are 12 months dearer than before!

This is a picture of Nate after he dove to the bottom of the lake and popped his ear drum. He was super tough during his recovery, but I'm not sure the quest for "lake bottom mud" was worth it.

You may recognize the Crown Royal Whiskey bag - well after the liquor is gone many people extend the bags life by using it as a purse...as did Nate. It goes well with his Hibiscus flower towel don't you think?

Hi, my name is Janie.

I'll be easy to recognize because I'm only 4'11" tall. Also because I am 82 years old, and will be wearing that shawl on the beach. Go Cougars.

Hi, my name is Kim.

This is me, last summer. Look how tan I was. I really like cigars. And I might wear that hat to the beach this time.

Hi, my name is Thomas.

Since a lot of us don't know each other, I thought it might be helpful for us to post pictures of ourselves to get acquainted before we get to the beach. This is me, though it's a year or so old, and I've put on a few pounds since.

House Theme or No?

Hey Guys... So, we're thinking about house themes...& do we even want one... Nate brought it up for discussion...

I was thinking a music theme with stars on the doors of each bdrm since we are doing a house concert. In each room we'd have industry people ie "engineers" (for whoever watches the most tv) "roadies" (who would be in charge of bringing in everyone's luggage. hmmm... MIKE!) "booking agents" "groupies" "security" (who would be in charge of taking out the trash. hmmm... NATE! aka "trash boy") "intoxified fan aka 'freaker by the speaker'" (TOBY!), Hair and Make-up (for any high maintenance girls' room), "Wardrobe" (for whoever brings the biggest suitcase) "Photographer/videographer" "Producer" "Manager", "Record Company Exec", "A&R"... Of course Andy and I would be the rock stars! tee hee... Ok. Toby, you can be one too but you're going to have to sober up. :-)

By the way...
What night would we have the house concert? We're going to have to spread the news somehow to get LOTS of people there.
Toby, are you going to do any singing????????

Post other "theme" ideas you think of.
