Month: December 2004

  • Kitty in Sink

    I back-dated posts from my laptop that I wasn’t able to get online. And borrowed Ron’s digital camera.

  • Airing of Grievances

    In keeping with the spirit of the holiday, I have decided to blog my Festivus Airing of Grievances. I figure I’ll wrestle with Ron for our Feats of Strength. 1. I think George W. Bush represents the very worst of America in every possible way. When he speaks it is like having an ice pick […]

  • Never Say Never Again

    My sister was asking for a new holiday malaprop from my beau. Here it is: Well… you know… better to be safe than never. What a dork.

  • Post-Season, Pre-Season

    Wading through a mountain of work and emails. Want to take nap. Can’t. Lay in bed – nothing happens. Or rather, thinking happens which keeps me from sleeping. Ron’s slept all day. Bastard. He and kitty sleep to spite me.

  • Back Home

    Someone needs to tell the Lousiville International Airport that they can turn the Christmas carols off now. I think my new least favorite is the rock ‘n’ roll ‘Santa Claus is Coming to Town’ with that syncopated first beat in the chorus. Like adding a percussion downbeat is going to save the song from itself. […]

  • Christmas Day

    It is almost midnight on Christmas Day. I can’t sleep. I’ve managed not to get too antsy about getting back home and starting the new year – but it’s starting to build inside me. That or it could be the sugar binge I’ve been on the past few days is starting to take it’s toll. […]

  • Christmas Eve

    It is Christmas Eve, 11:09 AM. Cabin fever is starting to set in. Really I’m worrying about my cat. I know I shouldn’t. Ron didn’t get to visit when he said he would which pisses me off but I’m sure kitty is alright. I think Brig was going over today so that should get him […]

  • Xmas

    Happy holidays readers and friends. I’m hopefully on the plane editing my old Movable Type archives so I can finish importing the personal blog. I look forward to sharing another year with ya. Correction: I’m not on the plane right now – I wrote this post as I was leaving on Wednesday morning

  • Christmas Post-Poned

    My mom called all the relatives to say don’t come over tonight since the roads are so bad. We spent two hours shoveling the drive way this morning – I can’t believe how thick the snow is – it’s pretty compacted too so I gave up shoveling and would break up chunks and discus-throw them […]

  • Whiteout

    Writing lots on my laptop to post when I get back, including cooking up the 2005 resolutions. Trying to finish proofreading my 2004 archives to re-import. The snow is pretty crazy. I got of Chicago fine but evidently we’re going to be snowed in here – all of our family engagements are up in the […]
