_________ Of The Day, Triathalons

From Dictionary.Com - Word of the Day: raillery \RAY-luh-ree\, noun:
1. Good-humored banter or teasing.

I moved from one knot of people to another, surrounded by a kind of envious respect because of Sophie's interest in me, although subjected to a certain mordant raillery from some of this witty company.
-- Peter Brooks, World Elsewhere

Her raillery and mockery are fun -- but ultimately rather tiring,

Big talk and Happy New Year's!

Posted 01-01-2008 at 02:50 PM by Kaitin

Last night before my parent's New Year's Eve party we talked about HAs and CIs. For months I know they realize I stopped wearing HAs. Always in the past when I stopped wearing HAs (when I was a kid), my parents say I must wear them and are unhappy with me. But they don't say anything. This is weird to me, but I was grateful they don't.

So last night my mom said the music for the party probably will make problems with HAs. Then she stopped and said she forgot I stopped wearing HAs....

I closed my eyes and didn't have any thought or conversation - just relaxed even with crazy stuff upstairs in the house. All day I had a headache and tinnitus drives me crazy, but then just...

Almost Happy New Year's!

I love New Year's. Every year near New Year's brothers who live near my parents have a HUGE party. They buy all the food and drinks and also give nice door prizes.

The party is a "beach party" in the house. If you wear a bikini (women) or a small swimsuit (guys) you get a door prize and a raffle ticket and you don't pay. If you wear a shirt you don't get a prize and pay $1. If you wear pants or if guys wear a board shorts - no prize and $1. So if you wear a shirt and pants/board...
