ok, i suck. totally. i update about...oh...never. yup, i suck. oh well, sue me. bite me and i'll bite you back. i'm just way too busy to sit on the computer every day and update a journal. the sad thing is, it's not that i'm busy doing a ton of really fun and exciting things. i work. i'm a dad. i take care of the house. i take care of things. i like to spend time with danielle and aidan. so when do i get to update? when danielle goes to bed before me. tonight's one of those nights. i'm actually kinda worried about her. she's sick all the time. her stomache is always upset. she goes through a thing of pepto at least once a week (she also has been going through a jar of peperincini's every couple days too though). she's always tired and stressed. i know work is stressing her out, i still worry though. she has this thing that she has always believed that she will die before she turns 24, which is next year, and all of a sudden this year she has been getting a lot sicker. i know i don't think she's gonna die, but i also strongly believe that your subconscience will never let you down. if you tell yourself something, your subconscience will make it happen for sure. so she's been telling herself this for so long now, and she's getting ill all the time...just makes me wonder. she can't do this though. i really want her to go see a doctor. now. i brought it up to her a while ago and she still hasn't gone. go. please. now.
anyway, on a lighter, consumeristic note...i got two awesome jackets yesterday for really cheap. my mom sent me a $150 gift card to the bon for my b-day. so i went to look at jackets two days ago because i really wanted a brown/tan jacket that i could wear to work with my shirt and ties, or with a hoodie when i was casual. i found one i liked but i wasn't absolutely sure, so i wanted danielle to come check it out with me. god bless her, after a long day she came with me, and aidan, to the bon to look at jackets. needless to say, she didn't like the one i picked out and really liked the one that was right next to it. only thing is, i didn't think i could get both since i had a limited amount i could spend. i didn't want to spend any of my own money on me since aidan's b-day and x-mas are right around the corner. but i try on the jacket she likes, wow, i like it too. fuck. what now? which one? well, i notice the one i wanted had been reduced even $20 more, and the one she liked was half off. so we figured i would have to kick in like 20 bones to get both jackets and figured it was a good idea. cool. so i go to right them up, and because i was using a gift card, i got another 10% off. fuck yah. rock! so i got $360 worth of jackets for $6.66 out of my own pocket. kick ass!
oh yah, and i'm so stocked to hang with the fam tomorrow. it's actually wierd for me to say this, but i'm excited to go to church with danielle and aidan. we found a really cool unitarian church (for those who don't know me, i hate organized religion...i think it's a crutch for the weak). then we're going to ikea to get a few gifts and x-mas stuff. next...tree time. we get our tree tomorrow. i love doing this every year. i love puting up the tree and decorating it. and this will be the first year where aidan actually get's it i think/hope. he can actually differentiate between a toy and its box now, so opening presents will be fun. and he's so excited about everything now, the tree and decorations is going to be a blast. then, tomorrow night we're going to go walk around somewhere in redmond (yuppieville, USA) and listen to some caroling and grub on some good food. i think that'll actually be really fun. anyway, excited to hang with the fam. afterall, we only really get to do this like every three weeks.
