January 11!!!!! That is four months without a smoke!!! wohoo... :D
What a frick'en beautiful day!!! Horrifically cold... but it's supposed to warm up - quite a bit actually - towards the end of the day.
Sunrise was like some strange moment of cinema...
Steam billows up past orange and red...
An ocean of houses with little programmable thermostats kicking into overdrive as sleepy people struggle to climb out from under comfy covers.
We have a nice view of the sunrise out our bedroom window.
Of course, nobody wanted to get up in our house.
The kids tend to climb into our bed and snuggle... but since I added the big ass king size electric blanket... they think they live there... :)
Traffic was an evil bitch today... no really good reason, so I don't even have anyone to be all gassed off at about it taking like and hour and a half to get here. grrrr.
Now I'm here and wicked wicked busy...
Uber boss comes to talk to my boss with a quick run down of a couple of potential candidates... directly beside my cube - I live in cube land - (we're trying to hire more specialists in our field)... and he asks boss "what do you think of so-and-so". Boss man replies "him? I hate his fucking guts..." bwaahahahahaha... Sadly I was eating trail mix at the time... and almost lodged a peanut in my nose. As it turns out... he has good reasons to not want to recommend this guy ... good business related reasons... but man, I just love the way he made his point. :)

Ladies... when the dude in the bar suggests that you would totally dig having sex with him and his girlfriend...
it would be a good thing if the "girlfriend" was in the bar too and not a corpse on the guys sofa... mmmmk?
// Oh no, American can't just pack up and leave Iraq.
No... because they cannot possibly survive on their own.
They neeeeeeeeeeeeeed American soldiers everywhere...
And, for sure, they'd all just up and kill each other if the Storm Troopers up and split.
I mean, it remains one of the big mysteries of the universe how these people survived for SEVERAL HUNDRED YEARS without American Troops everywhere.
Yuppers... America has got to stay.... forever...
(and keep a sharp eye on all that oil...)
