So there's my friends from high school. Best friends going on 14 years now. There's Mike (who we call Aardvark), Marc, and Bill. I used to think there was nothing I wouldn't do for any one of them but it seems I was wrong. Bill's an acoholic. At first, I didn't see it as clearly as everyone else. I'm the only one who left.

Saw "Bad Santa" today. Pretty funny movie, ruined only by the obnoxious kids who would not shut the fuck up behind us. I miss movie-going in LA where people respect the golden rule of silence.

Fucking Staten Islanders.

Today I fell asleep on the couch for 2 hours while I was reading a book.

Vacations are the best thing ever.

So I'm back on Staten Island visiting the fam for the holidays.

It's windy and like, 30 degrees out. I love it. I miss weather. LA never has any.

Last night I went out with my high school chums and got thoroughly soused, and today I went to my favorite pizzeria and stuffed my face.

As I type this, I'm sitting in my childhood room...

24 hours later, cranium intact I have just arrived home from seeing Return of the King.

I never cry, ever.

I must've cried at about 5 different points while watching that movie.

What an amazing film.

Had my review today.

Long story short, I got:

- A raise

- A bonus

- A promotion

- More stock

I am a happy. happy boy.

Now I have to make it through these last few hours before I see Return of the King without my head exploding from anticipation.

I am currently looking at the site on my 17" flatscreen monitor, which is hooked up to my brand-spanking new G5.

This weekend I shall upload every single CD I own into my gorgeous new 20 GB iPod.

I just hope that year-end bonus comes through... whatever

Damn these long arms and slight frame!

I got my kickass Rocket from the Crypt work jacket today, and it's a large REGULAR. I'm too skinny for an XL, but my arms are too long for a regular. The site didn't offer arm length options. I hoped it woulda been a long, but I should've known better. I have to see if they can custome...

I too have monkey limbs. When highwater pants and 3/4 sleeves came into style I finally looked right. Not as good for Winter, though.

I just read your post in the Dad thread.

Does your Dad know about the UN Convention for the Rights of the Child? It's the most universally ratified human rights document on the planet, aside from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Every country in the world has ratified it, except for the United States, who's signed, but not ratified.

Anyways it's a pretty powerful document for human rights and has definite statements on children with disabilities. It might help your dad to know about it if he doens't already.

Here's a link:
