Not had a lot to say as I have been down, down, down in the dumps since mid-morning yesterday. Bad news finally arrived in my Inbox … that bad news that I have been expecting since the middle of November. See, I have had lots of time to prepare for it but it still smarted like a hard slap to the face when that e-mail arrived.<\/p>\n

I plan on wallowing in self-pity for a bit and then moving forward from there. I think I deserve to wallow for a few more days.<\/p>\n

And now, to jump back for a few days … <\/p>\n

Cool Christmas Gifts received this Past Weekend:
\nPicture Coasters featuring poster art from Hitchcock Films
\n“The Comic Book Guy’s Book of Pop Culture” Book
\nOne Gallon of IHOP Butter Pecan Syrup<\/p>\n

Yeah. You read that right … One Gallon of IHOP Butter Pecan Syrup!!!<\/p>\n

Christmas Gift to Myself:
\nVasque Ranger 2 Hiking Boots (with Gore-Tex)<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

My hiking boots that I have had for years finally have started to bite the dust … the soles have begun to serperate from the boots and good ole Shoe Goo just doesn’t want to put them back together again. Makes me a little sad as I have hoofed many a mile on various trails in them. It’s kinda like loosing a good friend.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
