It is now my duty to completely drain you.
Last night was a whirlwind. Our photographer came and dropped off the pictures that we and our families had ordered. They turned out really nice and he was his usual peculiar self. After he left, we packed up the presents and headed to Appleton to my brother and sister-in-law’s house. We arrived around 7:00 and spent some time chatting and doting over my niece.
Then, we cracked into the presents. I was on the receiving end of 3 new shirts (1 dress shirt, 2 dress/casual shirts, all long sleved), Dashboard Confessional’s “The Places You Have Come To Fear The Most”, Henry Miller’s The Air-Conditioned Nightmare, a new blender, a cutting board, a vegetarian cookbook, a new set of goblets (4), a gift certificate to Kohl’s and a sweet pair of new headphones. Spoiled, to say the least and we’ve still got 3 more gift openings to attend to.
Got home around 10:00 and pretty much went right to bed. Had a weird dream with![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jonnyv and my high school friend Donna. It was in this big, weird mansion and there were pornographic pictures involved. I’ll say no more.
Work is going all right, I’m getting some things accomplished and reducing (slowly) the piles in my To Do list. My other job prospect won’t return my calls, so I think it’s back to the drawing board (again). Somehow, life goes on.
In lieu of Random Thoughts, here are some Fun Facts of the day:
Researchers at the University of Minnesota Cancer Center reported that nicotine patches and gum aimed at helping people quit smoking may cause cancer.
Australian rugby player John Hopoate resigned in disgrace after receiving a 12-match suspension for jabbing his fingers into opposing players' anuses. Afterward, the New Zealand Cancer Society used a close-up photo of Hopoate inserting his index finger into another player's anus to promote prostate cancer checks.
Kimberly-Clark Corp. announced it was eliminating the cardboard tube in two brands of its toilet tissue used in corporate restrooms. The company said it would fill the space with more toilet paper to help reduce the inconvenience of running out at a bad time.
Cancer and asses. It’s shaping up to be that sort of day.
