Hello once again, party people. Hope everyone had a safe and happy New Year celebration.
Me? Well, Tha Wife and I made a quick trip down to Tybee Island,
just outside of Savannah, to visit her Mom and her Grandfather.
Got back on New Year's Eve night. I had to do a leetle bit of
work, and then we rang in the New Year in the comfort of home. We
just didn't feel like heading downtown to ring in the New Year, and
then get shot and/or stabbed - it's just not my bag, baby.
Anywho.
Resolutions. Did you make 'em? Did you really mean
it? I made a few. I figure, if I break one, I still have a
few I can fall back on.
First, of course, lose weight. I'm no Fatty Boombatty or
anything, but I have put on about 20 pounds in the time since I
graduated from BSU. It wouldn't be as bad, but it's all in the
same place. I doubt I need to tell you where that is.
Suffice it to say, when we went to Indiana for Christmas, my crazy
grandmother asked if I was pregnant. Obviously I told her yes
(that's another resolution I've made, which I'll explain later).
Second, expand my interests and hobbies. I can be a hermit no
longer. It doesn't suit me. Plus, even though everyone else
stopped finding me funny LONG ago, I still thought I was somewhat
funny...until now.
To go along with that one, Tha Wife and I have decided to become
parents. To a dog. We aren't quite ready for children just
yet, but we decided to get a pup. We pick it up next
Thursday. I'm still trying to convince her to let me get the
other pet I want.
What would that be?
A French Canadian. Come on, I mean, the cute little way they use
the metric system. The way they speak total jibberish. It's
not like French is a real language or anything. Do I speak
French? Non, je ne parle pas le français, l'idiot. Etes-vous de
votre esprit?
And finally (on a more serious note), I'm not letting my crazy
relatives get on my nerves anymore. I'm sure everybody has their
relatives that just say the right thing to totally set you off. I
have several of them. Some like to paint my immediate family as
rich snobs, just because they are too lazy to get a job, and because we
can actually pay our bills. Some chose to get mad at me at my
grandfather's funeral because I didn't focus enough videotape on them
at the 50th wedding anniversary of my grandfather and grandmother just
before he passed away. Anyway, I'm done caring what they say or
think about me. If they want to be upset with me, that's their
problem, not mine.
Well, those are my resolutions for 2006.
Word up, bitches. I'm out like nipples in the rain.
