| Supposedly the roads were really bad this evening for driving on. I did not find this to be a problem. We took back roads to get home, but they weren't bad. We did see a traffic backup at one road, but not in a direction we had to travel. The highway did look pretty heavily congested, but it looked to me moving slowly.
Ah well. Took a little longer to get home, but didn't have to try to keep up with morons on the highway. Can't complain much about that.
In less happy news, the new downloadable content for Dragon Age that was supposed to come out today has been delayed. This does not make me happy. | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |
| Dinner tonight is sausage, peppers, and onions crack-pasta. It is very very tasty.
In less happy news, today's drive in to work sucked. Let me restate what I said on twitter/facebook: "So, apparently Mother Nature was all "HAHAHA, SNOW BITCHES!" on us this morning. It was like ice-capades on the highway. With retards. -_-"
Yeah. That wasn't fun. Left here at around 7:05 or 7:10. Got to work at 7:45. It's normally a 25 minute drive. Add to that today at work was all about catching up with stuff that couldn't happen last friday because of the holiday, and yeah. We had a good time. Really.
Well, off to visit with my Simsies. And maybe make a new neighborhood. | comments: Leave a comment  |

| After the complete lack of a decent night's sleep the night before last, last night's lil coma was awesome. The fucked up dreams involving a pseudo-Resident Evil style science facility/mansion, my friend Steve, rabid dogs, and the cast of Glee I coulda done without. I mean, really, why would Kurt go all mad scientist on us?
Anyrate.
Got most of my grocery shopping done of the week. We have to hit Meijer on the way home from work tomorrow to pick up some things that we don't buy at Costco, but nothing really dire. I think I shall spend some more time with my Sims now. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| After getting out of work yesterday, I went to join satyr_mi at our friend's place where we partook in a new hottub, which was nice but it was way too cold out, and had a weird (but good) fake chicken (vegetarian) dinner. We also watche District 9, which was awesome (but not while eating) and one of the Futurama movies. "Bender's Big Game" I believe was the name. Either way, hillarious movie and well worth watching again. We wound up staying out way too late, so when we got home I had the munchies, which I took care of, and then promptly passed out (around 2am) until the kitties decided it was time for me to feed them at 7am. I was not amused.
In other news, my computer is dying a slow, apparently commonplace, death. It doesn't like turning on unless I disconnect everything, pop out the CMOS batter, and beat it with a dead chicken a few times. Apparently the symptom (yellow flashing power light) can mean the CMOS battery is going, the power supply is going, or the motherboard is going. Gotta love highly specific symptoms like that, eh? Well, when we get our taxes completed we'll use the money that doesn't pay off my old dell bill to buy me a new computer methinks.
Well, back to destroying the lives of Sims now. | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |
| I did not stay up last night to watch the ball drop on TV or anything special. After all, I had work today. Managed to get to bed before midnight, but didn't fall asleep until after. Maybe I shoulda kept watching TV anyway. Oh well.
Woke up this morning, since I had work and what not, to a kitty (William) snuggling up and demanding pettings. This was of the good. So he got his pettings for a bit, and then I got ready for work. That part was not so much of the good.
I stopped at McDonalds on the way in to work. THEY WERE NOT OPEN. So, now I'm sitting here with no breakfast, no caffeine and no patience. Great way to start 2010. Really, it is.
On the plus side, we've had all of 16 calls this morning. And we're fully staffed. Maybe not so much with the plus side, then.
Well, off I go back to see what stores are actually awake yet. And try to not gnaw the arms off of co-workers for lack of breakfast foodage. | comments: Leave a comment  |

| So, this was a smallish Christmas for me. Most of the Christmas goodies went to various people's kids, but that's okay. Some of my favorite items of the day are below.
$150 in cash and gift cards = Wii! And Wii Sports Resort. And Super Smash Brothers Brawl.
Back Scratcher. AKA kitty toy and back scratcher. Kitties are a bit confused by it, but hey.
Some very very tasty homemade treats (chocolate fudge, peanut butter fudge, ranch oyster crackers, chocolate and butterscotch covered chow mein noodles) from my Aunt.
And, of course, a ton of leftover food. The joys of Breakfast at my Mom's and dinner at Keith's sister's. | comments: Leave a comment  |
