I DIDN’T MEAN TO DO IT. REALLY, I DIDN’T. BUT I ENDED UP SEEING TWO MOVIES LAST NIGHT, INSTEAD OF THE ONE I HAD PAID FOR! SHANNON AND I WENT TO SEE STUCK ON YOU, AND WHILE WE WERE LEAVING, AFTER IT WAS DONE, WE REALIZED LOVE ACTUALLY WAS STARTING IN A FEW MINUTES, AND WE JUST SNUCK INTO THAT CINEMA! SO, WE GOT TWO MOVIES FOR THE PRICE OF ONE, AND THEY WERE BOTH GOOD. ADDED BONUS! BY THE TIME I GOT HOME, THOUGH, I WAS COMPLETELY EXHAUSTED. AND THEN TODAY IT SNOWED LIKE CRAZY. I’M NOT SURE I CAN GO GET THE COUCH TODAY BECAUSE OF IT. I ALSO COULDN’T GET UP TO MASSACHUSETTS TO SEE KAITY FOR VARIOUS REASONS, AND IT SORT OF BUMMED ME OUT. OVERALL, NOT A BAD WEEKEND.

WHY AM I TIRED?
FOR A COUPLE YEARS I’VE BEEN BLAMING IT ON LACK OF SLEEP, NOT ENOUGH SUNSHINE, TOO MUCH PRESSURE FROM MY JOB, EARWAX BUILDUP, POOR BLOOD OR ANYTHING ELSE I COULD THINK OF.
BUT NOW I FOUND OUT THE REAL REASON: I AM OVERWORKED.
HERE’S WHY: THE POPULATION OF THIS COUNTRY IS 273 MILLION.
140 MILLION ARE RETIRED.  THAT LEAVES 133 MILLION TO DO THE WORK.
THERE ARE 85 MILLION IN SCHOOL, WHICH LEAVES 48 MILLION TO DO THE WORK.
OF THIS THERE ARE 29 MILLION EMPLOYED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, LEAVING 19 MILLION TO DO THE WORK.
2.8 MILLION ARE IN THE ARMED FORCES PREOCCUPIED WITH KILLING SADDAM HUSSEIN.
WHICH LEAVES 16.2 MILLION TO DO THE WORK.  TAKE FROM THE TOTAL THE 14,800,000 PEOPLE WHO WORK FOR STATE AND CITY GOVERNMENTS AND THAT LEAVES 1.4 MILLION TO DO THE WORK.
AT ANY GIVEN TIME THERE ARE 188,000 PEOPLE IN HOSPITALS, LEAVING 1,212,000 TO DO THE WORK.
NOW, THERE ARE 1,211,998 PEOPLE IN PRISONS.
THAT LEAVES JUST TWO PEOPLE TO DO THE WORK.
YOU AND ME.
AND THERE YOU ARE SITTING ON YOUR BUTT, AT YOUR COMPUTER, READING JOKES.
NICE, REAL NICE…

I GET TO SLEEP LATE IN MY OWN BED, YAY! RELATIVELY EASY WEEK. GOT TO SEE THE MS. FLYNN, ALWAYS AN ENJOYABLE EXPERIENCE. GOT SOME CHRISTMAS/HOLIDAY SHOPPING DONE. GOT OVER, FOR THE MOST PART, BEING SICK. HAD A DECENT BIRTHDAY. NO COMPLAINTS. SETUP A MEETING WITH JASON IN NYC, GOOD CHANCE TO HOOK UP WITH KREG FOR SOME IDEA SWAPPING FOR ANOTHER POTENTIAL PROJECT. AND STARTING TO MAKE PLANS FOR NEW YEARS IN THE APPLE.

KAITY! SEE YOU TONIGHT! LET’S ROCK THIS EVENING… SO MUCH OUR SOCKS COME OFF! SHANNON, YOU CAN HELP TOO. AND TAYLER, IF SHE MAKES AN APPEARANCE.

BIRTHDAY HAS COME AND GONE. FINALLY GOT A NEW PIECE AT WORK COMPLETE, OVER A WEEK BEHIND SCHEDULE. HOPE TO HAVE IT ONLINE THIS WEEKEND FOR PEOPLE TO TAKE A LOOK AT. IT’S A ROCKIN’ ESPN GAME.
