Yeehaw! It's my birthday today! I just got done eating a freaking awesome cake with my parents, and it's all I can ask for.

Normally I'd be okay with the having to go back to work after a week-long Christmas holiday. More work to look forward to, which means more money to make. Unfortunately this feeling has been completely dampened by one guy. One. Freaking Jerk.

By the power vested in me by the sages of Reality, the Universe, my neighbor across the street and Pogo the Wonder Tree, I now proclaim this.....HAPPY NEW YEAR 2012!!

Well, here's the end of the year. I really hate the idea of "resolutions" for New Year's, so instead there shall be a list of "Planned Objectives to be Met by the End of the Upcoming Calendar Year." Here they are ( Read more... )
