I'd Rather a Lump of Coal
Ya know what I got for Christmas? The friggin FLU! I'd rather a lump of coal. I've camped out in my sick-fort since Tuesday, doing uhh umm NOTHING. Bored out of my mind. I didn't even watch TV. So many things I could have tended to around the joint, but zip, zero, zilch energy to remove myself from bed. I did however make it a point to put on all my diamonds, so I felt a little fabulous :)
Thank god for the laptop, so I got to do a little work from home. Today was the first day I went to work, but it was only for 3 1/2 hours. So now I have a 1.5 day work-week. That would be great, except I have tons of work to do. Actually, it wasn't as back-logged as I thought it was going to be. That was comforting. Especially because I won't be giving up my New Years Day holiday to make up for so much missed work. I mean gah, that would be silly.

I guess I was super lucky to get "the sick" sandwiched in between Christmas and New Year's, so I wouldn't miss out on anything fun.
There is Nik on his quad. Christmas was great. I'm so glad for the family I have. For the past 5 years, my family and my husbands family have all celebrated Christmas together. K it's after 1am, and I don't have a graphics program on here yet, so I'll crop the pic later. Happy New Year to you!

So now that I'm thirty, I've really been trying to lead a healthier lifestyle. Ya know I got a treadmill - of course most of the exercise I've gotten outta that was when I set up a receiver and speakers in the garage so I can jam to System of a Down super-loud while on it (or just doing laundry). I've never gone outside to hear how loud it actually is outside of the garage, but I assume it sounds something like Chase's band practice. Since all of the homeowners (besides us) on our street are over 40, I am guessing they are closet-rockers.
So I've been trying to eat healthier, too. But its friggin Christmas! So like today for instance when I woke up, instead of getting on the treadmill, I had a Diet Dr. Pepper while petting Kitty XL. Later at work I had a Diet Coke, and because I was too busy to get any lunch, I had two giant cookies that were left over from Christmas presents I had given out. I kept busy and didn't realize how malnourished I had actually become. As I finished another Diet Coke, a co-worker walked in with an entire platter of homemade sweet-treats. It's 5:30, and I've had no food today but 2 cookies. Good timing.
After a quick 'review' of the platter items, I realize I probably am going to miss dinner at home again tonight. Ohh, mini fudge cubes. Yumm. Apple cinnamon muffins. Then I realize I've put nothing but total crap in my body for fuel today. I've even eaten something that resembles what I imagine a clowns pillowcase would look like after a nap without removing his makeup beforehand. I feel bad, but go for another mini fudge cube on my way back to my desk.
I'm drinking a water right now to wash it all down, so I think that counteracts all of the above, right? Merry Christmas.

FiOS
I'm getting fiber! I've seen them surveying over the last couple weeks, Friday they painted my street, and Saturday I got official notice from Verizon. Now this morning when I left for work I saw them actually digging. This is awesome - I can't wait! "Yesss, I love technooologyyy". I feel like Kip Dynamite, He'll be jealous when I'm "chatting with babes" over FiOS all day.

Birthday Month
K, my birthday is officially over. This years celebration lasted 3 1/2 weeks. I usually try for 4 solid weeks (aka Birthday Month), but quality counts, too. This was a very good year. I think I'll turn 30 again next year, too.
The celebration ended with a "fablious" long weekend vacation in the Temecula Wine Country. Pretty much my favorite place to visit.
Wine Tasting. Fancy Dinners. Casino Action. Facial. Massage. Disturbing other resort guests. I didn't want to leave!
My massuese said the massage technique would release the toxins in the body, so I should drink a lot for the next little while. So, I did. Champagne, wine, beer, and vodka. So, I guess she meant I should drink a lot of WATER. Whatever. She should have been more clear about that.
We were celebrating George's bday, too. He and Mike golfed at the resort, then went to see the Raiders play - I mean loose - to the Chargers at the Q on Sunday. Evidently, AWESOME seats. Row 1 in the Club level. They deliver your beer to you!
Special thanks goes to the rest if the 4L Club for such a great weekend, as always.
A little weird to be back at work today. I came back to 294 incoming emails, and Enron. Whatever. The Liars say we owe them $30k+, I say they owe us a little less than $1k. Now I have to prove it with a paper file thats 3 1/2" thick. Now I know what font they used for the demand letter they sent...
