another season passes by you

curled up in an oversized chair with a little me time. my feet are aching with cold although they are wrapped in pink fuzz. it's been a cold winter so far. but fairly satisfying.

you can't help, at this time of year, to reflect on the entire year past. mine was full of hasty decisions. from deciding and completing a move in 2 weeks -- relocating to an entirely different state to impromptu get-aways. from realizing who i really want to keep close and those who may not be worth the effort. from being addicted to netflix and the internet to being OK with local channels.

2008 was not the best year of my life, but i've had much worse. it was full of good times and finding my own happiness.

here's to another year and continuing the happiness.

gravity like lunar landing

we are about to receive a foot of snow overnight. i believe they even went so far as to dub this a "snow emergency". the only two good things that will come out of this are a casual day at work and an inevitable snowman on my front stoop.

i made the most amazing hummus... like, EVER.

whomever my secret santa is at work is a nut job... i think josh knows i know. i have a ninja growing in a cup of water, a cat that does back flips, an already been used compact frisbee, ... the randomness screams him. awesome.

everything's gonna be alright

one of my accounts suggested to me today that we should have errors on our site when something is entered completely asininely. but not any error. my account suggested that we have large, red, blinky errors... but not just saying ERROR... but rather...

YOU'RE AN IDIOT! FIX THAT SHIT!

i'm wondering how other (not so cool) accounts would feel if they get large red blinky name calling errors when they do something stupid on our site. i have a feeling that those errors would blink a lot... and make lots of poeple feel badly about themselves.

thoughts? feelings?
