A word on Games and the weekend.

I hope most of you had a Happy Christmas.
I don't often talk about games on this site. Some times I think that is a pity. Other times I am lucid and realize that it would be a bad idea.
Anyways, this post is about two games that I have played over the last few days.

First off, Pictureka. We got it as a gift from Maxine's folks. We had such a freakin blast playing it! It is one of those games that is great for a variety of age groups and can be played in a relatively short amount of time. I loved it! (Jeff won, by the way.)

Second is Jam Legend. This is a browser based online game that equates to Guitar Hero. I participated in the demo a couple months back but it is in general release now. (And, best of all, its FREE!!!!!!!!) I love it. I freakin love it! It has a ton of different songs. Some I know, some I don't. If you love exploring music, check it out. It makes me remember how much I love Audiosurf. I may need to start playing that again...

Anyways, I will probably not post again this weekend. Today we say our goodbyes to Miss Stacy and tonight are the UFC fights. (Good fights tonight. I am stoked.)

12th Day of Christmas

At this wonderful time of year, keep your global perspective.

It's not just a song, its a message.

Merry Christmas everyone. I love you.

Do NOT Eat Christmas Cookies This Year...

Every year, Grandma and her grandkids, Suzy, Jill, and Billy come stay with her over Christmas. And every Christmas Eve they would make a big bowl of cookie dough so they could make cookies on Christmas Day. And every time, the next morning the cookie dough would be gone. The grandma could never catch them, so this year she put metal bb's in the cookie dough. The next morning, the cookie dough was gone and soon Suzy came running downstairs.
''Grandma, I went to the bathroom to pee and bb's came out.''
"Suzy," Grandma said. "I know you've been eating cookie dough. Sit down." Then Jill came down and said ''Grandma, I went poo and there were bb's in it.''
"Jill, I know you've been eating cookie dough. Sit down." About five minutes later little Billy came.
''Grandma something terrible has happened, I was jerking off in the garage and I shot the cat!''

I am starting to get excited for Christmas!!!! (Finally)

Here is a little cheer for you!

Things happen. Deal with it.

This is a therapy post. You have been warned.

Do you ever get that feeling that things just aren't working the way they are supposed to?
I am going through my annual "look back" period as I get ready for my birthday. My dad used to tell me that time goes faster as you get older. I never believed him until I got older. Funny thing about little pearls of wisdom like that. They are always funny until you realize that they are true.

Anywho, as I mentioned, I have been spending a lot of time reflecting on the last year and how I have grown and what I did and did not accomplish. I won't go in to specifics because they are personal and you are too nosy.
I have spent a lot of time thinking about my mother in the last few months. As I get closer to the age she was when she died, it kind of freaks me out. I know she made a lot of dubious choices in her life but it would have been kind of nice to have known her. Or at the very least to know the medical history of that side of the family to know what to watch out for. I find myself wishing I had pictures, or some kind of good memories of her, but it is too late for all of that.
I am usually excited for my birthday. Its always right around Thanksgiving. (Because the entire country celebrates, and devoted a day to give thanks that I was born, of course.)
This year will be the first time in life that I have gone to work on my birthday. Normally, as I mentioned, I get excited. Not in anticipation of gifts or parties, but because I have always seen birthdays as a celebration of life. (And I have had a freakin' awesome life)
This year, I am just not that excited. I don't know why.

In the shower this morning, it dawned on me that Christmas is only a month away. I haven't even started to get excited for Christmas yet. I need to get into my holiday spirit!

I think my year boils down to this:
Things happen. Deal with it.

I have my goals for next year. (Don't ask, nosy nellie!)
I *WILL* be excited for the holidays!

YOU WILL BE NICE TO PEOPLE TODAY!
