spent an enjoyably wonderful afternoon with friend/former-in-law and one of his daughter's seeing the new Star Wars and then happily devouring some Olive Garden ( though one of these days I'll get him back for never letting me pay! )
it's always nice when they make it this way *smiles*
I think the year as a whole went fairly well and semi-usual... I don't have a lot of expectations and definitely no changes in mind to make this next year any differently ( sorry, I'm not one of those who makes resolutions, I'm afraid )
I'll continue to work where I work, doing the best I'm able as I'm able - and, yes, it will likely to continue to my my main source of regular 'socializing' just in the fact that it's the only place I regularly see people who actually talk to me face-to-face
I'll continue to have my daughters 36hrs every two weeks and be the best demn fathre that I'm able for my beautiful spawnlings... meting out punishment and praise as necessary while continuing to love them until - and well after - they've had enough *grins*
I'll continue to read until I have no eyes, write until I have no hands, walk until I have no legs, and Live because Life Is About Living :D
in a mere couple weeks ( plus a day and some hours ) I'll be on vacation with my fathre, using up 40 of the 112 accrued vacation time that remains until September...
no, I have no idea how I'll use up the 72hrs after that - hopefully I'll come up with something that doesn't result in
1) my going absolutely batty from spending a week at home until I nuts - or -
2) my figuring out how to 3day weekend those hours... that's 9days worth, demn it! 3day weekends the entirety of July and August?! I'd definitely go batshit insane
ANYways... it's not like I can really afford to do anything, but maybe I can eke out some idea somewheres before then
and I guess that's all I've really got
seriously
all I intend to do now is watch Twilight Zone, digest, have either sweet tea or a glass or two of wine ( probably the sweet tea ), and do some laundry tomorrow or Tsunday.
hey, I never said I was an exciting individual, did I?
...aaand now the pants are coming off.
Enjoy your 2016, my Lovelies and Gentlefolk !
a couple weeks worth of twits :
12/17 :
if you tighten health regulationss & increase costs, then make health insurance mandatory, fining those who can't afford it, you might be an asshole
12/18 :
I wonder which neighbour I have to annhilate for opening up EVERY bloody window in the hallways - the hallways are bloody freezin' now...
12/20 :
in just 4 weeks will be the morning of the first full day in Laughlin, NV with the Elder Tom - our first vaca together in 25yrs+ *excited*
12/22 :
any 2016 calendrical recommends that are ok for the girls and I ?
2015 was Doctor Who - the Descendants is no longer available anywhere :(
12/22 II :
"I hear you don't celebrate - why?"
I hear you don't celebrate the other religious holidays of the season...
"those don't count..."
and THAT's why
12/22 III :
yes, I have an official Mistress... no, it doesn't mean what people tend to think... I'm an honourable and proud slaveboy
12/23 :
WAS going to hit the bank, but snow has turned sidewalk into a slip'n'slide - plus company dinner tomorrow is hop, skip, & street from bank
12/24 :
overstuffed courtesy of work and the OCB and just over 44hrs until the spawnlings arrive for the weekend and off 'til Monday - I'm good...
12/26 :
groceries will be arriving around the same time my spawnlings arrive ... THIS will be interesting ( at least they'll have what they eat ! )
ok, the hunt for finding a list of replacement living room calendars is failing - will have to wait for the girls... most are sold out :(
12/28 :
watching the news this AM, there are seriously people who don't realize they're required to remove snow from their sidewalks ?! f'n idiots
12/28 II :
actually had someone ask "oh, were you a fan of Motörhead?"
does having 120 of their songs on CD count as being a fan? Helsyes, I'm a fan
12/30 :
"it's cool and mild, but not cold"
sorry, Mr Weatherman, but it's ten degrees BELOW FREEZING... since when is freezing a warm temperature?
12/31 :
may this 2016 make your last 2016 like a 2016 social disease with open sores and as lame as a 2016 vampire from a twilight film or sequel
12/31 II :
bottle of wine, DVDs/BluRay/Netflix/Hulu, Sims3, laundrification ritual #42 ... and that about sums up the next 89hrs 'til work resumes...
12/31 III :
s'been a long eve, long week, long month, long year...
must be gettin' old when I'm already ready to crash and see y'all in 2016 :)
1/1 :

-thom Wolfox sR Rhose
unusualist - I have yet to find a religion and/or spirituality that fits my own personal beliefs... other than, of course, the fact I am a (fallen) god.
( y'just now figured out that I'm basically a non-practicing hedonist? "if it feels good, do it, if it feels bad, you're doing it wrong" )
( "I believe in the proven power of willpower and the truth we are the gods we created. No one being created this universe and its wonders." )
( "the words of wisdom I follow will be the words I've written myself based on the life and experiences that I have Lived, Enjoyed, & Survived" )
( "I live not for tomorrow nor yesterday, but for the day in which I dwell - today. Today is who I am, I know not who I'll be tomorrow, nor am I who I once was. Aspects of yesterday may remain into tomorrow, but I'm never completely the same, for each day I live, I learn and this knowledge changes me, rebuilds part of me, and I am anew." )
( "may the platelets of justice travel the bloodstream of villainy, clog its arteries with honourable vengeance, and induce a coronary of truth" )
( "we are all inmates in the same asylum, some of us are just better at bribing the guards" / *breathe ... relax ... kill ... rinse ... repeat* )
( "Who do I think I am? thom Wolfox sR Rhose, official slaveboy, SchmooGod of the MidWest, and RedKnight of Pattern - amongst other names, why?" )
( "In a previous life I was the engine block to a '56 chevy, I lost my heart to a Volkswagen Bus... er, wait - or was that a '57?" )
( "I may not be the brightest orange in this bag o'donuts, but I know vasoline when I smell it!" / "Godfuck Me, Jesus!" )
"Just fear me, love me, do as I say, and I will be your slave..."
"Oh, man. I'm sensing something very canadian about this place..."
"It's all true, god's an astronaut, Oz is over the rainbow, and Midian is where the monsters live..."
Jax : "yay for you, do you want a cookie or a bozo button?"
