Another Wordpress update!  Let’s start keeping track.

Christmas came and went.  I think we celebrated it four times, between The Kid, my parents, The Girl’s parents and then various in-laws.  It’s all a whirlwind now in my head.  The Girl and I hosted dinner aka I sat around and drank while she cooked all day.  As far as loot, the best thing I got was a rocking chair and high chair from my parents, which isn’t necessarily for me specifically, but it means I don’t have to buy either of those things, which pleases me immensely.  Favorite loot given?  A custom CD of The Kid singing over some tracks, given to the grandparents and created  courtesy of Audacity, which just rocks, BTW.  Here’s the cover:

New Year’s resolutions?  Well I feel like I’m channeling Fat Elvis again, which makes sense as I’m eating and drinking whatever I want and not exercising in the slightest.  Seems like I do this every year; get vigilant in the summer and fat in the winter.  Perhaps I was a bear in a previous life.  I’m liking the idea of P90X, but that would require me cleaning out the garage and buying accessories, so maybe I’ll just try across the street again.  Of course, another resolution is to actually clean out the garage, so perhaps I should do that at some point!  Otherwise I can’t think of much I want to do or change.  I got a baby coming, I figure that will take up most of this year’s time.  I don’t need to add more hobbies or missions to my agenda.

Speaking of baby, The Dude has yet to arrive still.  Not that he’s late, but I think The Girl assumed she would not go to term because The Kid escaped early. But nope, it looks like he’s going to wait until the last minute, probably because he’s lazy like his old man.

Speaking of old man, lookit:


Yep!  Can’t see no more.  The doctor said I have an astigmatism, which isn’t necessarily an old age thing and probably something I should have addressed a long time ago, but maybe she was just being nice.
