The Year that Wasn't

Jan 04, 2013 09:00

Usually at the end of the year I do a year in review, but last year I didn't write enough to know what the hell happened. I sum up: I laughed, I cried, it was fine fun for me and my whole family.

I will update you on the last few weeks though because I can can can. For Christmas Santa forced me to buy a new furnace. Yeah, another one. This one I'm going to keep longer than 6 months though. I got home from the Christmas Eve Christmas party and wondered why it was so flipping cold in the house. I had a new one by Thursday though. Could have been worse.

Thanksgiving was a trip. My mom was in the hospital so I had to cook dinner. No, the firemen didn't come. I know. I was as bummed then as you are reading about it. She got out in time to hear my older sisters complain about how I bossed them around. I got there first; I got to be in charge. They didn't say no to anything therefore by default I was in charge. It was delicious, but don't tell anyone I can cook. Totally ruin my rep.

My widdle baby Snake turned 17. His dad gave him a car. Yes, it needs hundreds of dollars in repairs. I did a couple of them and on Monday he's taking it to school to have the auto shop replace the head gasket. Bob the Car God replaced the thermostat and I replaced the EGR sensor. Don't be impressed. It's just a little thing that plugs into the engine with a couple of tubes.

Mike is still living with his dad. He did terrible at school. He and his dad are moving in with Mike's girlfriend because the ex is a huge douchenozzle to women. Didn't even tell his girlfriend he was moving out. *sigh* Not my problem.

I haven't written anything in months. No, it's not the Facebook games this time. I've actually been being social... and playing a game on another website. I get to play with Captain America and "train" him. My imagination is really too twisted for color TV sometimes. I can only "train" him one more time though. I imagine his last session taught him out to put the toilet seat down and not leave wet towels on the bathroom floor.

Lessee...still working at the job everybody has been telling me to quit for years. It's like Hotel California all up in here. The day after Christmas I came into work to tell everyone to go home and got stuck in a snow drift in the parking lot. And did my boss say thanks for your dedication and for making sure everyone got home safe at my own peril? No, he did not. He complained that the parking lot couldn't get plowed correctly because my car was in the way. The Christmas bonus was pretty good so I let it slide.

Speaking of the job, I need to get to it. Those taxes aren't going to figure themselves. And I need to recover and send out my jets at the Helicarrier. Did I say that out loud just now? Later, kids

work, year in review, kids, weather
