Watching LOTR and playing Phase 10 and dice with Julie to ring in the New Year.

Thrilled that I can leave work at noon today!

Hoping they let us out early today.

One present I wasn't happy about...a cold on Christmas Eve.

Looking forward to a 4-day weekend.

Sad that Jacob seems to be sick again.

Ah, the first of two 3-day workweeks. :)

Just won a $90 book at the ISACA meeting.

Just got my cubicle nameplate...now where are those business cards?

Happy Birthday Jacob! (Is he one year old already?!)

Enjoying my new space heater at work...chilly feet no more!

Getting settled into my new job at Plains All American (http://www.paalp.com)

Upgrading my Storm to OS 5.0 (yes, it is the official Verizon release...not a hack)

Just ordered an HTC Pure and an LG Xenon from Wirefly.com...only $50.

Just finished reading "Heat Wave" by Richard Castle. I enjoyed it. I liked seeing where stuff in the series was reflected in the book.

So glad to be back in Houston

enjoying the semi-dreary weather in Baton Rouge

at the airport, waiting for my flight to Baton Rouge.

Hoping for an uneventful weekend.

Whoo-hoo!!! GO NOLES!!!!

Hoping the Noles can pull off a win against the Cougers

Just got my eyes checked out...will my vision ever level off, or just keep declining?

Just watched "Forever Strong" on my Netflix instant viewing queue...probably one of my favorites.

Excited to be watching the FSU game on ESPN360.com. Good find Julie!

and now...sleep

Crazy Samoans. Now driving on the left side of the road. I'm glad they were still driving on the right side when i was over there.

Boo. :( So close FSU.

Liking the way the Noles are widening the spread.

Excited to be home for my first Monday in a while.

glad Jacob is not sick anymore

ecstatic to find out my 20 cubic foot freezer will only cost me $354

glad that the pediatrician ok'd ibuprofen for Jacob. he's doing a lot better.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine = awesome movie!

going to see X-Men Origins: Wolverine tonight!

Hoping to win a video camera

I have made some entries on The Dirty Shirt, hoping to win a video camera they are giving away. It is a Creative Vado HD Pocket Video Cam.

Winning this would be great. Finally I'd be able to take good videos of Jacob, instead of the crappy videos that my camera takes.



He is such a cute kid, and deserves to have some quality home videos.
