New

Well, it's officially 2009. Though ten bucks says I'll be writing 08 on checks and paperwork until February.

I'm just taking a few minutes to blog before The Boy gets home. I want to play Oblivion but the controller/screen is doing a weird thing and I don't want to break the xbox trying to fix it. With my luck, it would explode completely.

I got my new blackberry in the mail, and I love that the trackball is actually clean. I compared them and felt almost ashamed at how black mine got. Oh well, life goes on.

I'm not going to bother with resolutions this year. They never end up happening and then I just carry around the stress of having unfinished business. Plus, its too cold outside to accomplish much else besides eating and sleeping. Come see me in May. Maybe then I'll have a list of things to get done.

I also need to get to MATC at some point for re-enrollment stuff. I know they're closed today, and I don't know when my next day off is, but I'm running out of time. I don't want to go another semester out of school, and I missed the deadline to apply for health insurance through work. So, back to "college" I go. (Strangely enough, I'm missing Iowa lately.)

Hopefully I don't end up transferring to another store. Though, I'm starting to see the appeal. Except it's getting difficult enough to take one bus to one location, I'd be dreading the 2 or 3 bus routes to work. I swear, I'll have my license and a car before June.

I can't think of much else to say, because I'm falling asleep. I'm surprised I made it to midnight. I haven't the last two years. Well, Happy New Year everyone. Let's not screw 2009 up too badly :)

black trackballs = sexy. Mine's black already too and I hate it, but I can't do anything about it sadly.

yes I hope you get your license too. you NEED it these days. seriously. i've been thinking about bussing it and then I just think about how long it takes and how dirty it can be and it being full of people and having to stand up and then I change my mind and say no thanks. But I hope you had a good new year, I'll see you at work or something buddy.

I really hope you make it back this semester. I need to do the same soon at UWM. Remember my standing offer of the use of my car for driving practice. I'm heading into a slow period at work and might be heading out that way soon. For whatever reason, I can't get that pancake place out of my head :-)
