This was an eventful year for us, full of milestones and dreams realiz-- nevermind. I can't do it. I can't be sincere for more than one paragraph. Lemme give you the short version:

1. Cylinda graduated from law school, earning the coveted Ms. GSU Law School honor. Nothing can top that; not even passing the bar or running around Europe for 5 weeks or starting a new job or getting Rock Band. Please please call her Ms. Law next time you see her. She demands it.

2. I didn't get fired! That's an achievement in and of itself. This is amid our state budget cuts, layoffs, furloughs and me goofing off in France for 6 weeks. I'll give you my secret, but don't use it against me: I know voodoo and I'm pretty good at it.

3. The boys are pretty much the same as always. They're happy not to have to hunt for their own food and they get the remote control during the day.

That's it. Merry Christmas, shawties! Don't knock over my mini-tree.




Oh, and you may have noticed that I'm back to writing completely unnecessary thoughts and opinions on the interwebs. My old blog posts may someday show up here, but that would require...work.

Ok, I can do that, but it'll have to be on Wednesday, December 31 at 6:59:59 pm EST. I'll wait one extra second for you. How am I able to stop time like this? Are you not accounting for my general awesomeness in...everything? No? Ok, me neither.

Turns out our Earth is rotating slower than we think. Well, aren't we all? It'll take 2 seconds to get to 7 pm because some very serious people who work at the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service said so. They've added 24 seconds since 1972. You know what? That's being really anal.

But the tubes of the internets and the tom-toms of all sizes must run precisely like...clockwork. Oh ho, that's bad punning.
