The Johari Window meme, and other things

d_r_o_n_e, a really cool not-quite-meme: The Johari Window.
Do one for me, and I will do my best to do one for you, too.
Anyway, ti started snowing at 7, just like the weather people said it would. Now we're supposed to get 10-16 inches. My only worry is power outages, because they news said that might be a problem. That's one thing I sincerely hope does not happen. Especially in the dead of night or the small hours of the morning. Other than that, I can't deny that seeing the beginnings of this nor'easter is a little exciting. I hope I never lose my love of snow. I mean, I know I have to shovel it and it's a big hassle and everything, but still. It's snow.
And anyway, next week I will be in Orlando.
Kung Fu today was all right, a little boring though. I had hoped to see Tristan, since he's going to the tournament next week and I wanted to wish him luck, but Sifu taught instead. There is a new guy there--24, a few weeks of martial arts when he was 13, lots of wrestling and grappling experience--and he seems a decent sort. Sifu set us all doing one drill that we've been doing all week, and then left us to our own devices. Then he seemed to forget that we were all in there, and let class run for two hours. It got very repetitive very fast, because I wanted to do what sifu said and not go out on my own, besides, I didn't want to leave our new Si-di behind. So we drilled the same ten moves over and over and over again for about an hour and a half, stopping once in a while to talk. After all, it was just him, Nicolette and I, and Nicolette had to leave around 12:15.
Hula was good, we ran O Keahi A Lonomakua a few times, as well as Waikiki Hula and Pai Ali'i, which is my favorite Tahitian one. I obviously won't be there next week, but will be at Kawahi's halau instead on Saturday. This completely rocks the house.
This time last year that stupid guy was bugging me about Hula and dancing with Kawehi and all of this. He had all kinds of dumb, pointless things to say to me, none of which made any kind of sense, but what it came down to was this: stupid haole shouldn't be doing Hula. And I had to f-lock all my Hula related posts--especially the ones that had to do with Kawehi, Kamai and Auntie Kau'i--because he and that other LJ chick were all up in my business, trying to tell the Hula community that I was a liar about who I had danced with. I'm glad that stuff is over and I don't have to f-lock everytime I say that I'm going back to Kawehi's class, or Auntie Kau'i's class. Dude, Kawehi was furious when I told him about that. I've never seen him get mad before. And Kamai was just her beautiful, aloha self. She could tell it had upset me and was--as she always is--a Gracious Lady. I can't wait to see all of them and dance with all of them. Then hopefully we are all going out to dinner one of those nights. That is kind of iffy and depends on everyone's schedule, but I hope it happens.
Gosh, the snow is really coming down. I would have liked to get some pre-trip shopping done tomorrow, but it looks like I might be house-bound. Still, on Monday I'm going to have to dig the car out. I've got to get shopping, also I have Kung Fu monday, and work on Tuesday. I can't believe how busy this week is going to be. I was supposed to do all my major house-cleaning today, but Jeremy came by to give my parents their early b'day gifts, and we ende dup hanging out for a few hours, which was great, because otherwise I won't get to see him before I leave.
So far I've got:
Tomorrow - digging the car out and shopping, otherwise doing more of the major cleaning. Maybe going to dinner with Pat and Casse if the roads are clear, and going over all the stuff they need to do here.
Monday - hopefully getting to the chiropractor, then the same possibilities as tomorrow, depending on what I do tomorrow, and then Kung Fu. One of these days before I go I need to get a duplicate of my house-key, too.
Tuesday - work, laundry.
Wednesday - bringing the birds to Laura's house, finishing laundry and cleaning, packing.
Thursday - bringing the dogs to board, finishing packing, hopefully getting together with Kim for dinner.
Friday - doing last minute stuff for Pendragon and the remaining birds, then off to the airport with my aunt and cousins in the afternoon. We won't even get to the hotel till around eleven or so. Jeez.
Then halau Saturday morning, and off to Magic Kingdom. I hope to just chill this entire vacation! ^_^
