I dislike it when my job schedules a project,in november, that requires me to work every day but christmas, thru Jan 2nd, but doesn't tell me until almost 5pm on Dec 21st.
great trip at an end. been sitting in chicago o'hare since 6pm yesterday. united cancelled my flight as i was boarding it. they say due to weather, but i checked the airport website and our flight was the only on cancelled due to that. i wonder if it was really because the flight was only half booked. now they are telling me that my rebooked...

Thank you! It was strange how she kept her lead hand low...it was like she was doing a cross between kung fu, and tkd...weird...didn't do her much good
Landed in a freakin' blizzard (okay not really, but what do Texans know about snow?) in Baltimore. crammed into a southwest airlines flight. least comfortable flight evar, but I forgive them for charging me less than $80 for the trip. hanging around the capital for a few days and then up to NYC. The cold weather is reminding me why I usually try to travel... Read More
The cold weather should be reminding you why you visit your friends in California. Have a good time & take lots of pictures so I can live vicariously, k?
Been a good holiday. Haven't had to work too much, which is nice.
this is the weird time of the year when work is scarce. South Texas just isn't COLD enough for a lot of heating calls and it's nice out so cooling isn't really an issue for most people either. I enjoy the extra time off of work to sit home in my pajamas... Read More
I'm glad you've been getting to spend time with people you care about. To me, that's the most important thing about the holidays. Hope you're still getting turkey sandwiches.
If you have family or friends nearby, I hope you get to spend time with them today...doing whatever...getting stuffed on food, watching parades or football on television...just hanging out.
Got a bit of work to do and then heading over to visit with family for a turkey lunch...maybe watch some football...then meeting up with friends to go shoot some pool and maybe... Read More
I hope your holiday was a good one. Mine certainly was. I had forgotten how nice it is to spend holidays with your family. Plus, I got to feed people. Bonus.
Awesome! I'll be here. I have a friend coming to town to stay with me on the 14th, and the ballet's on the 12th, but otherwise I'm free. It'd be great to see you!
tried watching The Orphanage, but couldn't get into it. Found the "By the People" documentary on HBO instead and watched that. Really good stuff. It was encouraging to look back at the '08 campaign, not just for the results, but for the incredible turnout even in the primaries and caucuses.
I've been a Marine for a little over nine years now, and I've never regretted joining the Marine Corps. There have certainly been a few times when I would have preferred to be somewhere other than where the Marine Corps had sent me, but I wouldn't trade... Read More
I celebrated by approaching some random motard with high and tight and digi-camo backpack. He introduced me to another Marine and we just stood there shooting the shit.
It's remarkable that two guys I don't even know suddenly were like the only people at my whole school who I felt like I knew at all.
Hope your Christmas Day makes up for it, at least a little.
