Well, I'm back. ...Back to the smog, sirens and road rage... I guess I'll always be a country boy at heart. If ten years ago you had told me that I'd actually come to miss Nebraska, I'd have said you were crazy... but I've genuinely come to appreciate the peace and quiet of home.
I love post holiday sales. I went to Wal-Mart and blew some Christmas cash on DVDs: Aqua Teen Hunger Force volume three, Napoleon Dynamite, Johnny Dangerously, Weird Al's videos, the Chuck Norris classic Lone Wolf McQuaid and Something Wicked This Way Comes, all for under 40 bucks! Awesome!
New Years was very mellow. Just sat around, boozed and watched movies with Dad. ...God, I'm getting old. Made phone calls back to L.A. at midnight to tell people about the future. (Yes, a lot can happen in those two hours; flying cars, dogs wearing pants... airport security that is both efficient and fun!)
On that note, had to deal with the usual air travel annoyances; the ridiculous security that gives only the illusion of safety, delayed on the tarmac for an hour and lost luggage. Why is it that any other company that operates so poorly goes out of business, but we use tax dollars to bail out the airlines???
OK, enough ranting.
I got back into L.A. and was greeted by Perhapsevil. We enjoyed a little dinner and I exposed her to the glory that is 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. ...A whale of a tail, indeed!
OOOOO!!! THIS makes me a happy monkey!!!
