Christmas Wrapup

Well Christmas is finally over! I worked over 110 hours in the past two weeks and have been enjoying a few wonderful, and, dare I say, well deserved, days off.

Christmas was kind to me. The biggest gift of the year was a new guitar! Hurray! Now I don’t have to go on tour with a family heirloom! I also got some new dishes, lots of treats and money.

The strangest gift I got by far was from Sam and Madalene. They sent me lots of tasty Asian goodies which no doubt came from Seafood City in Saint Louis. The Mr. Brown Blue Mountain Style Iced Coffee drink and The Wahaha Baby drink are both quite creepy, but the creepiest treat is probably the Triko Assorted Fruit Jelly. The assortment consists of 4 flavors: Grape, Apple, Orange and… Aloe Vera!


All of the fruit jellies also contain real fruit, except the aloe vera, (thank goodness!) and they are also vegetarian, as they contain seaweed extract instead of gelatin. (it’s made from hooves you know!)

I’ve only tried the grape so far. Its hideousness is beyond description.

Happy Yule!

Happy Yule Everyone!

Burn something tonight or the damn days will keep getting shorter!!!!!

I plan to celebrate by drinking scotch, passing out for a few hours and going back to work...

Maybe I'll light a match or something.

Surviving

I’m feeling much better now.

My body is starting to adjust to crazy Christmas baking. Either that or I’m starting to lose my mind. I was singing along with the Christmas carols on the radio today…

The rest of this week should be OK. Mostly early mornings, but nothing too bad. Next week is when I start coming in at 9 or 10 PM and working all night. Those shifts are killer. At about 3 AM, you start to hate life and get annoyed at the slightest things. Fortunately, when the sun comes up everything becomes good again and you stop being tired. It’s funny how it works.

So everything should be fine as long as I get good sleep, drink my coffee, and nobody asks me what the difference between Cinnamon Burst and Cinnamon Burst Swirl is ever again!

Dennis Sleep Now... *Thud!*

Dennis must sleep now.

He has to work in 6 hours.

Bakery bad!

Starting to hate Christmas...

Sentences, losing pronouns, proper syntax...

Maybe more scotch will help...

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Greatest Day in History?

Today might just be the greatest day in history! Not only was Prohibition ended on this day in 1933, but today we celebrate the 214th anniversary of the death of Mozart! I think I’ll spend the day getting wasted while listening to Mozart’s Requiem in D minor.

Oh, and I’ll probably be doing it in a ninja suit because today is also the Day of the Ninja!

I heart Wikipedia!
