The Times, they are a changin'
Sorry haven't been around, but things have started poppin again. Still have not fixed the water damage from the water heater bustin... called a contractor, and then his truck breaks down! I went to Florida in Nov for Thanksgiving to see my sis and dad. We had a "democratic T Giving"-- everyone was put to work , doing jobs they never have done! This year, I baked yams-- made mashed patties, and put a syrup wiht cinnamon and chopped walnuts, then baked em. Kept wondering how it would come out, and it was enjoyed. The best was a young friend of my bother n law, who had never mashed potatoes! My sis gave him the old masher that belonged to our mom-- then told him to put music on, and just beat to the music. He put on Nicleback and really had a great time bashing the taters! We all laughed, and had a relaxed time. Very interesting how well everything came out, and fun doing different stuff this year.

Well the winds of change are trying to rattle me again. Traffic has so snarled with freeway destruction (opps-- they call it construction) it has been taking close to 2h to get home most nights! Glad that 2 days a week, I work in the little office that's closer. In addition to trying to keep up with fixing things , Chicago called me-- the place I interviewed last May has another openning, and yes-- at the end of January, another interview. Guess we'll see what happens. Am I shaking in my shoes-- you bet! It will be a challenge to make the change, get my house ready to sell (been working at that slowly) then going 1500 miles away if I get the position.-- Funny, whenever I am worried about something, something else bigger and badder comes along! Might as well set up and live in the Closet of Anxiety!

Kuroneko:NYA! This is MY closet!
Jet/Vash: That's what YOU think!

Been re-watching my FMA discs---I really enjoyed that, FLCL, and still like the dark humour of Paranoia Agent. I've tried to watch Trinity Blood, and Bleach, but I fall asleep!

So--what are my friends planning for the holidays? Big M will be home, and just time off with him is all I want right now.

Wishing great friends the hopes of tomorrow, and a peaceful season! I will get some of the Japan pictures Big M took up and posted!
