Need Now And Often

 We've got cabin fever. Been shut in for a few days now, and at one point today we found ourselves in the bathroom downstairs. All of us. Me, Laura, Yuula, and Judee. And Alps too. And none of us had to go to the bathroom. We were there for completely other reasons all together. And I don't even remember what that is now.

 Nothing historic to report today. I think we're taking a brunch tomorrow. Gotta run an errand or two, try and declutter and sort out all our non-essential items into categories; "Need", "Need Later", and "Never Need". Also, "Where the hell did this come from?".

We have also found the most delicious fig newtons. They are "Need Now and Often".

For That You Get This

Where has this week gone? Kinda can't believe it's Friday. Haven't really been keeping up with things. Maybe I need to switch to a stronger morning beverage. Maybe I need to stop DVRing First Take. I can't hear the same fabricated arguments everyday. It makes my week blurry and I FF>> most of it anyhow. Enough Tebow. Friday workday. Good to have a plateful at 6am. Yuula is awake but I am not entertaining her. When Laura walked out the front door I heard a cry from the crib. Those two have the Shining. But she's slowly settling back down. I don't think she needs to be up at 5:30am. I think even Sprout has infomercials. Gives me time to unload the camera. And for that, you get this...

Keep It Going Eleven More

I'm having a good year. I've already got more favorite albums in 2012 than there've been days. I finally pulled off that nasty hangnail on my big right toe last night. Little blood, no biggie. My football team is still in the playoffs (for now). Yuula still loves all her presents from Christmas and it's finally snowing here today. Laura's on her way home from work and we're having tater tot casserole for dinner, maybe in front of the TV while we catch up with the new shows we missed all week. Real Time is coming back on tonight and Bill's surprise guest is Herman Cain, oh how I've missed him. That should be entertaining, once I find it online somewhere, because I ain't paying for HBO. I'm not having that good a year. But I can keep this level of happiness up for the next 11 months, because after that... ka-Boom!

That's right, I'm sticking with the Apocalypse thing. It suits me. I don't believe it. I just think it's fun. All year folks. All year.

Passport Echo From The Snow

Today has been fun. Lots of snow was unexpected. My show day got canceled and we stayed and caught up on some Dexter, that is between the power outages. Mostly we just watched our cable reboot. Snow day,Yuula loves when mom & dad are home, and tater tot casserole, of course it flew by.

Easy Early Bird

I'm getting good at this. Begrudgingly. I don't think I spelled that right. Surprisingly good mood this morning. Maybe because I'm over halfway thru a hellish week. Maybe it's the good playlist this morning. Maybe it's the tater tot casserole I brought for lunch. Maybe it's the melting snow. Maybe it's a combination of all those things. Mostly the casserole tho.

A Whole New Tater

2009 was year of the tater tot casserole. We averaged about one a week, and with leftovers, I'd say we ate tater tot casserole 250 out of 365 days this year.
