Wow.

It’s been a while. I’ve been busy. Working… you know.
Anyways, I’ll try to start posting more often… maybe.
Oh… It’s been snowing! Awesome! This is the first snow I’ve seen in about 6 years, and the most I’ve seen since like ‘94; so this is pretty cool.
Didn’t get to see Nathan for Christmas, which sucks. Sent [...]

The Last Christmas

We had our final Christmas party of the year, last night at my Grandma’s. We had ham, chili, and vegetable soup. For dessert there was blueberry pie, pecan pie, pumpkin pie, and some kind of dessert made with Oreo crumbs. It was really good. For entertainment, we watched Pleasantville and 50 First Dates.
Since it’s the [...]

Random thoughts

The office is a mess. They’re putting tile down in the lobby, and they’ve moved all the stuff back here. It’s a little claustrophobic. Hardly anywhere to move. There’s a neat echoing sound up front, though.
This is the day I have to work that split shift. On a Friday. Oh, joy. I’m hoping it won’t [...]

100 Greatest Comics

As you can imagine (and as is pointed out in the introduction) the list is highly subjective. [...]

Best.Christmas.Ever.

I was feeling bummed last night, because it was getting late and I hadn’t heard from Nathan. Finally, his mom called. He received all the gifts we sent and had already taken about 40 pictures on his new digital camera.
The best news… instead of ME going [...]

A Gorey Christmas

I Do Not Want to Move to North Carolina (I think)

My family is having one of our Christmas celebrations tomorrow. We’re having another one on the 30th, which I have requested off for. Which means I will have to work a split shift: working 3rd and then coming back in for 2nd.
Oh, boy.
Hopefully, we will do something on Christmas Day. I’m off and it would [...]

Christmas at the Office

We had our employee Christmas party today. There was lots of food. I almost regretted eating those Bubba burgers the night before, because I was still full. We had turkey, ham, biscuits, green bean casserole, lima beans, potato salad, green beans, baked beans, and various cakes, pies, and puddings for dessert. I brought a caramel [...]

It’s a shame I’m already done Christmas shopping…
