Some thoughts.....

My little Emmamonster will be here in two weeks for Christmas. That is something I'm really looking forward to. She told me on the phone today that she wants "Rock Band." It's my fault really, I got her started on "Guitar Hero," and she thinks she's Joan Jett. Anyway, I happen to fall into a pit of stupidity and mentioned what "Rock Band" was. I'm just that dumb, I guess.

For those that did not know, Bonnie and I got "lucky" and was able to go to the Alabama/Auburn game. My Tide shut them out 36-0, and I was levatating to my car. It's amazing how as a person, you can grab onto something as trivial as college football, but me completely compassionate about it. I know some Vol fans that read this and you know what I'm talking about. My neighbor told me that he got depressed halfway through UT's season and just stopped watching football altegother. Someone create Zoloft for the avid sports fan. We need it.


What can you say about Christmas? Halloween is my favorite holiday for some reason because Christmas is kinda scary. Lots of emotions well up..some good and warm, some sad and chilly. My sister will be here for Christmas, staying a night or two with us and we don't even have to look at each other to know what we are thinking, which is cool because we will have fun instead of being bummed out and talking about the past. Her and her hubby are going to get DESTROYED at Cranium..and any other challenge that uses your wit. I am the Man!

For those that USED to ready my movie reviews, I am sorry, but I have fallen behind. "Four Christmasses" and "Quantam of Solace" are a couple of flicks I've seen.


I am so bored! I haven't done much at the Times lately and school is out. There is nothing to do. I'm happy to hear that I will have several projects that Bonnie would like for me to do. Do any of us remember making funny of people that did a little too much decorating for Xmas? Well, I do. That being said, the decorations that I dread have made their way from the bowels of the basement and are looking at me....Oh, and we got the tree today. Nothing like driving down the road with a 7 foot Frazier Fir on your rooftop. I just love how the little needles are everywhere and I can't get this sap off my hand. merry christmas.



Oh, and my old 34 year old butt just made the Dean's List, and I think I could have done it blindfolded! Im just joking, essay questions suck.

I am certainly not looking forward to a little doctors office next week. I am getting an epidural. Yeah, the rest I do not fully understand, but the jist is that a large needle is going into or around a bulging disc I have. It is not a good sign when they tell you, "you will need someone to drive you home." WHAT??!!??! Im either going to be in such pain or my legs will be too numb for me to drive. You know, my back is feeling a lot better.
