yeah yeah
I haven’t posted in awhile, been sort of in a funk. If you follow me on Facebook, you saw what happened in Dec.
If you don’t, I had to put my beagle, Mabel, down. She had developed cancer some time ago and it finally got the better of her. We had her cremated and buried her at my parents house with one of their other beagles.
Christmas was good. Was helpful spending it with my parents, seeing my sister and two of my nieces and nephew. The trip coming back though was rather rough.
The storms wreaked havoc on many people’s travel plans. Including ours. Flights coming back home were cancelled, delayed, causing us to sleep in airports and take two days to get home. We were rather upset with Southwest’s policies. They do not give meal voucher’s, refunds, or hotel accommodations. The return trip tickets were put onto our accounts for use at a later date and they made a token apology by giving us both a $200 voucher, so that pays for our trip to Arizona for spring training and my trip to PAX:East.
And now we have a cat that has renal failure. Not looking forward to the that end.
/whine off
mmmmm…..
Things have slowed down. Back isn’t hurting as much anymore. And getting back to regular duties at work. Yay!
So Christmas was great this year. Had alot of fun doing the shopping, but the credit card bills starting to roll in now. What ya gonna do?
One thing that showed me it would be a good one was the tree. Meg has had a fake tree for awhile, and we’ve been using it for the past four years and I told her I wanted a real one. After some back and forth on the issue, we got one!
But I ended up with some new clothing, Patriots throw blanket, The Hangover BD, District 9 BD, Left 4 Dead 2, Assassin’s Creed 2 (bought with one the gift cards), Borderlands, DJ Hero (don’t laugh, its fun), & Dragon Age: Origins. And this awesome homemade snuggie that’s alot bigger and warmer then the crappy one’s you get on tv. I’m happy.
Meg. Well, two words. Spoiled rotten. I only have to say two of the things she received, laptop and Kindle. Guess being an only child has its advantages. :p
Upcoming: Cake in concert this weekend!
Have a safe and happy New Year!
