Well fellows, this might be as far as we get today. This entry could end at any moment. I'm at work and it's a bit slow right now. But you never know when you might have to answer the phone and help someone with a ridiculous problem. The problems are always ridiculous. Either ridiculously simple or ridiculously difficult. I prefer the simple ones; they're quick calls and more likely to bring me a sale. The difficult ones are time consuming and I never end up selling anything. "Well, sorry that issue took 30 minutes to resolve... have you though about grabbing another year of your hosting? Just to get it out of the way?" Nobody goes for that. Today's my first day back at work in 4 days. It was a long weekend but it still managed to come to an end. It didn't really feel like 4 days. I got to spend lots of time with Dennis and that was about the only thing that was noteworthy. That and Christmas itself. Christmas was alright. I wanted to make all the rounds early and be done by 12. Crystal refused to get up. I mean flat out REFUSED. I woke up at 8 and went to wake her up. "You can go. I'm not going ANYWHERE," she mumbled. Irritated as I was, I gave up and slept for a couple more hours. We finally woke up at 10:30 and we weren't out the door until at least noon. Christmas wasn't over for us until 7 pm. I'm not complaining, though. I like the ritual of Christmas. All the gift giving. I still have to get Dennis a gift. I feel like the worst friend in the world. He got me a fantastic amp stand and a Tom Petty DVD. I told him I was in the process of getting him a ukelele, but "I don't have it yet." It was hard shopping for him. I spend an hour and a half walking the antique store looking for something that would interest him. I'm scared to death of what he'll think of my gifts. In fact I feel that way about everyone. Most of the time there's no reason to worry.

I'm sorry that this wasn't a very artistic entry. It's a rebirth, really. I haven't posted in ages and I'd like to start again. It's great fun usually. I'm not sure what my angle will be, but I'll find it eventually.
