Monday Thoughts

  • I was on call for work last week... hence no posts cause I was too exhausted with lack of sleep. Oh well, it paid the mortgage for next month.
  • I hit a dear heading into work Saturday night (I was heading into work, not the dear).
  • I tagged it's rear so I don't know if I killed it right away or if it died later or is just limping.
  • I feel bad about it.
  • I have been organizing my PC files. I think I will 'downgrade' to XP. I have too many programs that don't work right on Windows 7.
  • I remember having 'upgrade issues' when I had to move to Windows 95 from Windows 3.11.
  • At some point I will 'just need to let go'.
  • I swear EVERYONE has to be out shopping all day everyday during the month of December.
  • We are heading out to Colorado to visit family for Christmas on Wednesday. 12 Hours of fun driving... NOT.
  • The ONLY thing I dread about it is icy road conditions.
  • I watched District 9 and I really liked it (I didn't think I would).
  • I am now watching The Last Airbender.
  • I consider myself an Airbender (after one too many Taco Bell bean burritos).

Friday Thoughts

  • I have ordered Darth Vader's FX Ligthsaber with removable blade from Entertainment Earth. I can't wait to get it.
  • My job is being extra stingy this year with Christmas bonuses. Really stingy! From 350+ dollars last year to... wait for it... 50 dollars this year. 35 dollars after tax... sheesh.
  • I STILL can't complain. One year I got 7 dollars from Kmart.
  • I get so envious when I hear of companies giving their employees 1,000 or more bucks for a Christmas bonus.
  • Time is approaching for 2011 yearly goals to be set. I think I have some big ones coming this year.
  • I ordered Fantasia/Fantasia 2000 on Bluray for myself for Christmas. There is something about them that I really like.
  • We are having a Unitedway drawing for a 47" TV today. After my tough lesson learned several years back... I will not be spending any more than 1 dollar on this drawing.
