The Woods Family Website

Consider this a warning.  Be ready for additional birthday announcements!  I, along with my friends Bryce, Rob, and Adam all have birthdays this week.  For my celebration, I started the weekend before.  We had a FD Hackerz LAN party on Saturday.  Bryce came up and we inducted a few new members to TeamPalit from the FD crew.  To be honest, we’re starting to get a significant number of people on the team, here in Iowa.  Also, Candice supprised me with my present, a weekend early.  She gave me a really nice Fossil watch for my birthday.  It’s a momentum winding watch that never needs the batteries replaced.  It looks really stylish and has all kinds of neat gears in the background that you can see moving. 

 The next weekend, I was really torn.  I absolutely LOVE Buzzard Billies.  I had just gotten over a cold and had been thinking about having some spicy crawfish etoufee for dinner.  The problem was, I also really wanted to go to Hu-Hot, a newer Asain restaurant in town.  Marcus has been talking about it for months now, and they (his roomies and him) make special trips to go.  I really like Asian food, so it was a tough decision.  Luckily for me, I didn’t have to decide!  We ended up doing Hu-Hot for lunch and Buzzard Billies for dinner.  The food was great but the conversations were better.

 Saturday night we ended up talking about movies and picking our favorite for each genre.  I wished we’d kept a list, because there were some great discussions.  Sad thing was, with out Josh and Kelli we didn’t have the Woods’ experts on hand.  However, Marcus was there to fill the gap.  Some of the movies we talked about were:  Gattica, The Big Lebowski, The Guns of Navarone, The Matrix, and Airplane.  I wished we could have kept going, but as the evening closed, we decided to quit talking about them and start watching them.  Mom and I stayed up and watched the Big Lebowski that night.  I need to start screening movies before I let my mom watch them…

 To those of you who were around on my birthday, and to those of you who took time to wish me a happy one, thank you.
