Have you ever met someone, like face to face, and there's this strong sense or force pulling you toward that person? That sorta happened to me tonight. It wasn't a guy either which is weird to me also...cause I get that feeling with guys all the time.

It was like I wanted to be friends with this girl, like we had some sort of common ground that we could relate to...It's an odd sort of feeling.

Well Christmas is over. I hope that everyone had a great holiday!

Carrie and Matt left this morning...I get one day of rest before the remaining clan comes in.

I have to clean my computer room today and organize my shit...i did get a wireless system today...so I can now surf the net from bed :) Isn't technology great?

and every single one of them is at the mall today...."

So my friend Joey's grandmother passeed away last weekend. She suffered from illness for so long, I'm sure that she's happy now to not be suffering. My heart goes out to the Uhlik clan.

The one moment I feel the slightest bit creative, I can't find the picture I want!

I was going to redesignthe website to pay tribute to three of my all time favorite bands...Depeche Mode, The Cure and New Order...and one would think that I would be able to find one decent scannable picture of a poster, magazine article, or something from my collection. Shit I keep everything! I can't find anything! AAARRRGGHHH! The good stuff must be in my storage unit, but I am not about to dig through there right now!

As a South Park character? If you haven't seen it yet this week, you totally need to check out the episode called "Raisins". If you were ever a goth kid in high school, you'll laugh your ass off. I never knew that my friends Joey and Brandon could carry over into cartoon characters..ha ha ha.

Oh the Say Anything reference is a riot!

So I didn't go into details about this yesterday...Meghan, Kristin, and Chad all came up to Sur La Table for a gingerbread house class. Normally I teach these classes, but I didn't have to today, which made it easy for me to hang out with my friends.

Christmas shopping is done. We did all of our big item shopping online again this year. Courtney and I just got back from the mall, where we picked up some stocking stuffers. I always try to buy one or two cool stocking stuffer items, and then fill the it up with candy and nuts. Origins and Aveda are big stocking stuffers in this house. So the online stuff should be here next week some time. Then it will be all about wrapping presents.

We're doing a tree this year, but not at our house. We're going to set it up over at Granny's this year. Since that's where everyone will be, it'll make her happy, so she doesn't have to think about going to the hospital everyday over the next few weeks.

So I spent all of yesterday in bed, watching crap on TV all day, and sleeping. I feel so much better today. My voice is still scratchy, but nose is much better.

Hopefully, I can muster up some creative energy to make a new skin for downsizing2schwabbies.com, and some Christmas cards. OOH, that may mean a trip to the scrapbook store :) Yipeee!

Courtney was sick all weekend...I guess now it's my turn. I am the biggest baby when it comes to being sick. Everything annoys the crap out of me, I always freezing, and there is never anything good on TV when your sick!

AAARRRGGGHHH!

I promised myself that I would not pick up the phone to call either job at least for a while. I swear I must have picked up the phone like 10 times, stopping myself from dialing. Am I sick or what?

So I'm a little stressed out. A little angry. And maybe a little depressed. Since I fainted at work last week, I've been a little worried about how I have been taking care of myself over the last few months.

"You're not a rock band. You're a cult!"

Meet Polyphonic Spree.

Um...yeah. How do you get them to shut up?

I rarely have a decent breakfast. I never have, unless I was staying with my grandparents as a kid. Today started out as a normal day...went to get crack at the local Starbucks, and off to work. I was working on the computer today, trying to get the April/May schedule done...I had to let the kitchen know something about the wine being served...so I got up and headed to the kitchen...

I hate my job...nothing new...Let me give you some background about my job...
