Holiday-in-waiting
TBID is coming to Texas to meet my family in three days. I’m anticipating all the usual questions and lags in conversation and such. It’s been at least three guys since I brought a romantic interest home to eat my mom’s cooking and awkwardly talk about the economy.
Where did the time go-go?
Since seeing the CEO of my company shimmy and thrust his pelvis to “Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go”(which did indeed invigorate me before I left the holiday party), I am officially on vacation. I had to take a lot of time off, because I kind of forgot to use my days and had no desire to spend a lot of money on trips. That is what 2009 must be about - I want to go on trips. Not the guilt or head or power kind.

Every six months or so, I see some story about a professional of some kind who fooled everybody into thinking he or she was perfectly qualified for his or her position while actually illiterate.
A few blessings
This Thanksgiving, I’m grateful for…my family, sliders, the healing powers of time, TBID, spell-check, humorous co-workers, colorful leaves, good photos, laugh lines, early mornings, cackling, democracy, gel ink, and Stevie Wonder.
I’m saving for their college education
I consider these guys my pets. The little one is named Ike; the bigger one is Big Sister. I know I’m insane.
My voting life
Like many Americans, I lost a lot of faith in the democratic process during the 2000 election. The problem was, I had no voice. A senior in high school, I was six months shy of voting age. The closest I got to the polls was a mock-election at my small Texas school. You can guess how that turned out as easily as you could spot kids wearing Wranglers or crosses.
Beginnings, endings, and other important days
November first, the beginning of NaBloPoMo. A very loaded day.
Me on shuffle
Hi, everyone.
I had a very structured, productive day, so please understand when I tell you that I can now barely put three sentences together. Because so many of you nice people stopped by today, I’m going to post something. It’ll be extremely stream-of-conscious, and I’m giving myself a certain small amount of time. Ready? Okay, let’s go.
