Home From The Holidays
Category: family
Well we got back last night from our long weekend away at (e:James)' family's house. Nice relaxing weekend, definitely feel better after talking some time off and away from the computer. It's a bit weird that I never see my family anymore, what with James' family being so much closer to us then my Dad, we tend to spend all the holidays at his family's. And then the extended family I still have in Buffalo, I never see at holidays because we're out of town. Hoping to get out west soon though, and reconnect with my relatives here in town.

On the other hand, I had intended to get at least *some* work done to keep this week from being too insane, but I had no cell reception and wasn't able to connect my laptop to the wifi in their house. Grrr. They live just outside of the NYC area, in Putnam county, and I don't understand why they have no cell reception. It's just housing for as far as the eye can see. No idea why the wifi wasn't working though, pain in the ass, that.

Wrapping Things Up
Heading out of town for the holiday weekend, but I'll leave you with this list to ponder:

Movie sequels we need.

Excerpt:

W for Wowiamangry
I Also Robot, How You?
Reservoir Puppies (prequel)

Wow. I just totally had a mental mash-up between Reservoir Dogs and Repo Man. How weird is that?

Repo puppy, anyone?

ps--drive safe...

Christmas Pierogi

goldschlager pierogies?
joshua - 11/21/07 08:57
For $9 a dozen though, there better be some gold leaf in there.
joshua - 11/21/07 08:56
I think what makes the pierogies xmas-like is the filling - mistletoe, gingerbread
fellyconnelly - 11/21/07 00:32
screw the cookies, leave some pierogies under the tree!
jim - 11/20/07 22:50
Pierogies are delicious.
james - 11/20/07 22:50
Jason, what you don't understand about these perogies is that they need that huge sum of money to pay for insurance. After all, nothing says xmass like mistletoe perogies and the attending vomiting.
mrmike - 11/20/07 21:00
What makes them Christmasy?? Red and Green Fillings?
jason - 11/20/07 20:58
$9 a dozen? Isn't that expensive? How big are these things?

Head Gonna Asplode
I was off this afternoon, just in a fog and less then productive, think I need some time off. Going to go out for a drink tonight and staying away from the computer.

Had this great idea for something today though, hard to let it go. Will just file it away until this weekend. Turning a problem inside out and maybe solving it much easier? We'll see.

Draaaaaank. Then sleep. Yup.

I'll fix that, hope you'll excuse my poor phrasing, Janelle.
janelle - 11/20/07 19:10
You weren't "super retarded"... to use the correct term, you were "developmentally disabled"
=)
joshua - 11/20/07 18:27
That picture of you is awesome!
drew - 11/20/07 17:56
I'm going to have a drink tonight, too. I'll look for you.
