Merry 2 days after Christmas

Hello my friends...

A very merry 2 days after Christmas and not quite New Year's wish to all of you.

I hope your Christmas was great or is going well! Mine was quite lovely - I managed to get home, hang out with family, see some good friends, eat much too much food, and hear Pastor Herm preach twice!

Things are pretty much back to normal over here - I'm back to work again, which was a little rough after having 4 days off, but it's not going too badly :) I got a new camera for Christmas, so you'll be seeing some fun pictures up here when I get the chance to take them off my computer!

Best wishes to you!

You might surprise yourself... check out this quiz that the Washington Post put together about republican and democratic presidential candidates and their answers to 25 different questions.

Note: When you choose how "important" an issue is to you, you are choosing the number of points that you attribute to the unknown candidate. If no answers work for you, pick any answer and just say "not important."

life is good

Finally, pictures from Thanksgiving! A fun picture at the Parthenon...

And bowling fun for 99 cents a lane!
Other than that, life moves on. I'm working a lot, but I enjoy my job so it's all good.

We're getting our 5th roommate this weekend. She's nice, so I'm excited to see how things work out. It will be an adjustment, but I think a good one.

I was thinking the other day... do you ever buy things on sale just because they are on sale? I have a pair of jeans that I bought on sale that I never really wear. I think I may have bought them, not even needed jeans, for the sole fact that they were so cheap. Anyone else do that? Anyone else do that with things other than clothes?
