well, the holiday season has passed, and I survived it (as well as my family).
some stuff I found out this past week:
1. my cousin's 5 year old son is a pimp daddy. he has 2 "girlfriends" right now (in Kindergarten). yeah, he's a dog. then again, the kid has blue eyes, brown hair, and is VERY personable. so I'm not surprised.
2. the medication my aunt has been on for her Wilson's Disease is no longer working, and there is NOTHING that the doctors can do for her. so copper is building up in her body. her tongue is swelling, she's shaking more now, and having trouble talking. her husband? about as useful as, hmmm, a man with no legs in an ass kicking contest? he's worked 2 weeks since they got married, on disability for a back injury. mind you, he can drink, hunt, and fish.
yeah, that's about it for finding stuff out. read my previous blog for what I got.
so what's next? well, with the New Year coming up, I guess I should have some resolutions:
1. get in better shape....get the gut taken care of. or at least smaller. suggestions, anyone?
2. get a job. start my career. you know, grown-up stuff.
3. be financially solvent. I've done pretty well this year in keeping up with bills. but I want to be better....I want to be perfect.
so yeah, that's about it.
and you?

Check with hr about the vacation pay ... many companies have use it or lose it policies for vacation time, in addition to requiring x amount of notice in advance to using said time ... they tend to have their asses covered in these situations. They may give you nothing, a couple days pay, or the choice of the time or the complete amount ... often the corporation will allow the local management to make the choice.
Half of my friends are my old sg friends, others are from geezers, and a couple I found in sg friends threads.
