Kinda Bummerish, And Other Junk

After a rather tiring day at work I am currently sitting here sipping Kiwi Strawberry Crystal Light from a wine glass and contemplating why on earth I cannot seem to win a fantasy football match up. I just read the news about Jason Bateman having throat surgery and it reminded me that I need to get Joolie to mail back discs 2 and 3 from season 2 of Arrested Development so I can get a Netflix rental up in here. I'm in a stretch of working 7 out of 8 days and will hopefully use the time wisely to get myself prepared for the impending holidays. Speaking of which I'm not "off" again until after XMAS and that prospect seems kind of frightening, if for no other reason than I fear I may burn out or have heart failure.

In other disappointing news, I am now realizing that my upcoming birthday is on par to be the lamest ever. Let me explain. There are only a handful of people that I would call my inner circle here in the GA and 2 of them are heading up North on my birthday I guess to get an early start on Thanksgiving. Lame. Thankfully Joolie is only working until 9 PM that day, so at the very least I will have her to help me drown my sorrows as I get another year closer to death. Not that I am unhappy about having Joolie there, I just wish there was going to be more fanfare surrounding the blessed event.

In lighter news, I failed to mention that after much despair I now have recovered my beloved MP3 collection thanks to Brother Mike who sent down an external hard drive loaded with songs this past weekend. I'm back up to 5000 in ITunes and it's such a comfort to have more than the same 10 choices. Sufjan Stevens, I missed you.
