Good morning and merry Christmas. I was the first one in the office today -- at this point, I am of the mindset that I should be the first one to leave.

:(

Good mindset to have on Xmas Eve!

In-laws are here, my parents are on their way up from IAH, and we're buying a house today.

It is good. :D


Mmmmmm! I love sweet potato casserole. We decided not to do the "traditional" Christmas Day lunch of Turkey and trimmings. We did this at Thanksgiving, and I'm not a big turkey eater.

Life is looking good for the MackieMan household - and we in the Box are happy that that is so.

Watch 2:00-4:30.

you really need to watch the whole review, but those 2 minutes are the best.

All seven of them are pretty hilarious and spot on.

NJ lawmakers whining about Jersey Shore is far more important than fixing the mess that is the state government. The government problems can be passed on to future generations, while Jersey Shore is offending people now, and as we all know boys and girls, the chief worry if government is to ensure that no one anywhere, ąt any time, ever again, is offended. Ever.


Besides, has no one gotten the memo that reality TV is satire????

I seem to be the only stupid sap who is even attempting to do work here today. I had really hoped to take all of next week off, and by getting some stuff done today, I think I can at least only have to work on Monday. I am rolling over a bunch of vacation this year.

Well, my plan worked -- we booked a cheap room at the 4PTS near where we are celebrating Christmas Eve tonight (2 blocks) so we don't need to worry about drinking and driving. My reservation now shows we are in a suite -- thanks SPG!
