Sick time...

Not much for today, since I've been busy. My co-worker John called in sick, so I've been doing his work along with mine. Kinda frustrating, but I guess it's that way when I call in sick also. Oh well...

Weekend Stuff

I'm tired today at work, which isn't anything new. And, that's OK, since I had fun this weekend.

Friday night Val and I went dancing, and I didn't step on her foot even once. It helped that the waltz is simple and that I remembered a lot of the stuff we were being taught. Saturday we went sledding , to put to use that snow gear we bought at the start of the year. I will say this: I was so warm I sweated through my coat, which is a Columbia with an inner liner and then a shell. The only thing that was lacking was the glove situation. Fingerless, fold-over mittens just don't cut it in the snow. So, that's the next purchase being planned for for both of us.

I am currently enthralled with C&C:Renegade for the PC, and Pikmin for the 'Cube. Renegade is a FPS that is about 5 years old. It's still fun. I'm trying to beat Pikmin, so I don't get the wimpy ending this time.

I once again apologize for not posting more often. I'll try to find something blog-worthy each day, I promise.

Gone For Good.....?

Contrary to popular opinion, I am not dead, or missing. As captain Picard said, "Reports of my assimilation are greatly exaggerated." I just haven't had anything interesting to say. Also, Val and I have been very busy since the weekend. Besides, since I haven't seen any other comments posted, I'm assuming that no one is reading any of this . That's OK.

We decided that we should move upstairs and vacate our place down in my mother-in-law's basement. So, we have been running up and down the stairs putting stuff up there. What fun, since I get to do most of the heavy lifting.

I think that's enough for one day. Until tomorrow...

Tuesday blahs...

I'm kinda bummed today. It sucks hurting other people, even when I don't mean to. I'm not talking about any other heinous sins or anything emotional. Physical pain...even though it's an accident. I want to tell the person I hurt that I am sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. :( I'll be more careful.

Stamps went up 2 cents today, so remember to go get some so you can mail your bills out.

My friend Ben's site seems to have been deleted, destroyed, disintegrated or otherwise removed from the cyberscape. :( How depressing! I hope he makes another comeback.

Val is having a good time at her work. She had fun last week, so hopefully this week is good to her.

My youngest brother-in-law is engaged to be married sometime in June, I think.

Work is a bit frustrating because some people here expect me to read their minds, and are mad when I can't. Stupid.

Remember to check out your mission's website, so that those who like you can stay in touch with you. You'll thank me later, I promise...

Nuthin' doin'...

There's just not anything happening right now, so this is a pointless post. Sorry...

So sorry, old chap...

Please excuse my lack of communication over the extended weekend. I hope none of you were lonely.

Well, Val and I scored on Saturday. We got 2 pairs of snow-bibs, normally $80 per pair, for $50 for the 2, one for me, and one for her. We also got me a pair of snowboots for $40. All that is left is to get each of us an excellent pair of gloves, and our winter gear is set for the forseeable future. How nice!

New Years was nice, but it's always hard to come back to work. Speaking of work, Val started her new job today doing data entry for her brother-in-law's business. It's a transmission repair shop in Kaysville called Craig's Transmissions. So, if you have trannie trouble, give them a call @ 801.444.1171

I know, I know. Shameless plugging... If only it were sponsored... I'm out...
