so it's a new year already

damned if these new years don't just keep comin' quicker. gonna use 'em all up 'fore i know it, then where'll i be? safe guess: somewhere that is not here. yes, i highly doubt i will be entombed upon this chair in this room; it would bring down the property value.

i wonder if anyone's actually ever asked to be cremated and have their ashes thrown....in an ash tray. i wonder if anyone's ever had their ashes sprinkled lovingly, like a fine, rare spice, into a simmering pot of spaghetti sauce. brings a whole new meaning to the term "eat me".

christmas came and nearly went before i was ready to actually participate this year. not much christmas spirit in the ol' boy. i finally worked a little of it up on christmas day itself, watching my son open presents, and sitting around at my sister's house with the folks. hopefully this year the christmas bug'll bite me early enough to get things done earlier.

new year's was frightfully uneventful also. managed to get together with ThoseDudes, but that's about all i can say positive about the experience. new year's day began with sittin' fer a spell in a hot tub whilst drinking coffee and Bailey's- as good a way as any to start a year.

this blogger's been trying to quit smoking. it would help if i actually ran out of cigarettes. i've gotten to the point now where it's really difficult to smoke one. i think i have about half a dozen left and when these are gone i'm going to try to tough it out. unless of course i find MORE cigarettes hiding around here somewhere. i've smoked 3 this year so far, in bits and pieces. take a couple drags, get dizzy, put it out. a step in the right direction.

ok if i don't get some dinner going soon, i'm not going to get any. and i have to shower off all this sandblasting dust from work.

PEACE
