Dang, I didn't realize it had been over a month since my last post. So much for posting every day in November. *sigh*
Well, between work kicking my ass and getting a cough that was lingering and just making me feel generally icky, I wasn't in much of a blogging mood. Top it off with my laptop screen dying (I usually made posts from the laptop while watching television), posts just weren't going to happen. Oh, well...not like I had anything interesting to say, anyway. (It would have just been sickness and crappy work rants.) Marcus scrounged up an old screen from a broken laptop and I'm back in business. Hopefully some interesting things to blog about will occur.
We went on our annual Christmas tree hunt a little over a week ago. Marcus and I went down to Colorado Springs the night before and stayed in a hotel so he wouldn't have to rush to get ready and go down there. It was definitely a good plan on his part. Getting him up early is a freakin' nightmare. Pictures are in the Christmas Tree Hunt 2008 gallery. I need to get my butt in gear and decorate it. I also need to get my Christmas shopping started. I have no purchased one. single. gift. Lame, even for me.
Marcus got me my Christmas gift early. I'll post about that in the morning after I snap some pics. I just have to say that he is the most awesomest man in the entire world.
We have had record-breaking cold the last couple of days (and maybe even possibly tomorrow if the overnight temp is lower than -8°F). The temp dipped to -19°F last night. I shudder to think what the wind chill was. I know it was still in the single digits all day today while I was out running errands. The planning forecast on 9News says we might reach 40 by Thursday. Wow, a heat wave. There go any plans of putting up outside lights this year. Probably ain't gonna happen.
So, the cough is gone and my laptop is functioning again. Let's see if more frequent posting occurs.
