Ten till eleven and mystery nurse texts me out of the blue. A bit of back forth and it appears she's in town for the weekend wasn't sure why she thought of me enough to text me..

A substantial crack has decided to take residence on my windshield this morning. Goodbye two hundo... thankfully I didn't do anything stupid like go off and buy some new computer bits. Hello half a day off to sit in a window repair shop.

2012.11.26 (13:36): Maan... Old but concerning news..

I decided to drag the family's christmas listing process into the intrawebs. A quick few php pages, a long drawn out tweaking and fiddling, a few tables, and now it is done.

Time to sit back, arch my fingers, and hit the refresh key.

About damn time Bag and Save... I've been sans Kashi Dark Mocha and Almond granola bars for the better part of six or seven months and not happy. About time to see them back in the store and now one (of six) is in mah belly!

Saturday morning? Check.
Hung over? Check.
Tired? Check.
Rushing to get out the door? This post belies a different story, but let's say check.
Going to small town Nebraska? Check.

What must I be doing? A debate tournament!

Er.. wait.. no, actually I am heading to Columbus to drop off a laptop for my cousin and generally surprise her mom and family by my taking of the town. As an added bonus it seems they are doing their Thanksgiving dinner so I may end up crashing that as well.

Time to shower, get my provisions, and hit the road. If no one hears from me check the highway between here, Fremont, and Columbus. I may have been struck down on the trail.

2012.11.16 (15:04): Whistlers... be on notice.

I swear if I could spend time making moderately elaborate traps for people wandering around whistling I would. Pit traps with poison spikes? YES! Nets with angry bees?! MORE! Crushing rocks? MOAAAR!

I just noticed the websense filtering at work is cranking up something fierce. I mean holy hell shit is getting blocked off left and right. I really... really.. do not want to have to log into my home pc to throw a blog post up or check on dreamincode.

It sounds like Ms Margie is back on the basis that the Islands make you work too hard to be that poor. Back to the mainland with the intent of continuing her career path but in a more financially sound environment. It was good to catch up with her, but it seems her karaokee singing has developed a country twang since she's been gone.. in.. the.. south? I have no idea where that would have developed, but it seems she hasn't picked up the lingo like her sister.

Now on the hunt to get her a job in a hotel in the metro area.

Side note - Joel? Jasper? Who ever that googlie eyed kid is a twerp. A freaking odd twerp.

2012.11.08 (12:20): Checking things off the list..

A busy list of things to do..
item one - work out a functioning wordpress theme, plugins, data conversion, and mock up of my current site. Check and check.

2012.11.07 (13:48): Eh.. it was okay.. a bit pricy.

We were supposed to be doing lunch at Thai Spice for a belated "Boss's Day" outing, but that was canceled due to last minute scheduling issues. I didn't find out until I was at work sans lunch. Ugh. So a few of the guys and I went to Fuddruckers. Okay a bit of an experience (since it's been the grip of years).. not bad guac... but over all a bit pricy for being okay.

Oh well.. off tomorrow!

2012.11.05 (11:55): Gangnam style - at work!

Amusingly enough BossDad played the entire Gangnam Style video at the start of our weekly meeting. A few potential HR queries could have been raised by that video but it was funny enough. Maybe we can make a habit and do a round-robin of music videos for the team. I am thinking - Wax's "California".

Yeppie - off Thursday and Friday. I may demand lunch of a legal nature.

I love me some Faceoff on Syfy.... like a lot. Not only are the people genuinely interesting but their designs are bad ass.

I swear if I had the cojones to drop what I am doing now and just go into makeup and prosthetic I would try out for that show. A little hard to get into out of the blue and no movie to make pieces.. but that's what Halloween is used for!

Kudos Nicole for being voted off and coming back so damn strong it hurt!

Thankfully we have another season in 2013!
