1/1/11

I'd like to say that 2010 was quite the year, that it was full of so many wonderful things, so many interesting things happened and yet.............I don't feel that. What I do feel is that 2011 is going to kick some serious 2010 ass. It's going to kick all sorts of years' asses.

(Hopefully) We are moving in February. It's time. We've been lucky enough to have parents/inlaws that have generously opened their home to us for the last five years. There have been ups and downs but considering what some people go through when they move in with parents/inlaws? We had it so easy

It's going to be tough. The kids are gong to have the biggest adjustment not seeing Grandma and Grandpa every day but they are excited about getting our own place. I have to be honest, I will miss my mother in law so very much. Look at me.....talking like we're moving 5 states away. Seriously. We'll be in the same small town. 5 minutes away at the most. But still, I hit the jackpot with my mother in law and not seeing her every day will be hard on me too. I'll be over there in the corner with the kids crying about how much I miss her. Hahahaha. 

No. For reals. I'll be the one in the fetal position. 

So......I have my number one resolution which is:  Find a suitable townhome/house for my family and I. 

I'll have more tomorrow. I hope you all had a wonderful and safe New Years. Let's kick this one into high gear, shall we?

I Can't Wait

I know of no one who agrees with me that Jason Mewes is hot. This is a bad example and this is definately NOT hot. That's ok though. I remember the good, forget the bad. I make no excuses for my taste*. For fans of Clerks , Chasing Amy , Dogma , Jay and Silent Bob , etc , check it out: P.S. I've been working 'til 11 or midnight most nights so I'm pooped. I'll blog more. I promise. Was I missed though? * Or lack thereof to some people

This, That and The Other

I can already tell that Thanksgiving and Christmas are going to suck ass even more than it normally would at my job. Last night, a guy was telling me how much he gave me, how much he was supposed to get back and THEN told me what order to give it back to him in. Um? Sir? I'm not a twit, ok, I am a twit, but I'm not an idiot. Ok, sometimes I can be. Like that time I moved up to Wisconsin in the middle of a blizzard from nice, warm Tucson, AZ for a dumb boy and we broke up less than two months later. Yeah that sucked but my point is: I've been in retail, just about every job one could have except store manager, for about oh, 19 years. I think I know what I'm doing when it comes to giving change back. Don't talk to me like I'm a 16 yr old kid who's working his first job and doesn't give a shit what kind of work ethic he has. I care about you as a customer but when you're a dick to me and pissing off everyone in my line so they are dicks to me ? Well, ...

This Has To Be Said

I haven't blogged in 8 months. We bought a house, still unpacking, school started. You know, life. I felt the need, the urgent need to blog about the Adrian Peterson situation today. I am full of all sorts of feelings and had to write about it. I would love to hear your thoughts on this whole thing. No really, I would. I don't feel I was a douchebag in my writing so all I ask is you not be a douchebag in your response. Thanks. My thoughts on the Adrian Peterson situation (but first, some backstory): I was spanked as a child. I'm pretty sure most of us that grew up in the 80s were. Until the summer between 5th and 6th grade I lived in Charelston, SC and from 6th to 11th grade, North Chicaco, IL. I have seen every form of discipline doled out on a child. I've seen spankings, beatings, hairbrushes smacked into heads, spoons hitting the tops of heads, whips, belts and even switches. I've seen it all. Most of you know that my son is named after a little boy who ...
