I have been super busy all day today. work is kind of busy, and yet the VPN network that allows me to sign into the office system so I can actually be productive is still not allowing my access.. this is going on 4 days now. So I am dead in the water just having to call the office every few minutes for task I could normally do myself. All this craziness, and my day is FAR from over, as I have to pack and then drive to the airport for my wonderful 3 hour flight to New Mexico tonight !! UGHHHHH!!!!
I am going to be exhausted. I'm already tired, and my day is barely half over.
I need a massage to relax me in the worst way.

* Sitting here listening to Christmas Music
* Working as best I can since I can't get signed into the system at work remotely
* Preparing to go to New Mexico tomorrow thru Friday
* Cool and Rainy here. Feels like Winter is approaching.
* Did some Christmas Shopping on line for Black Cyber Monday.
* Bought a new entertainment center over the weekend. Tonight we transfer all the electronics from old stand to new bigger taller stand.
* Tonight we unwrap christmas tree #2. yes, I said unwrap. We wrap our trees in bags and keep them fully decorated in the basement all year long, but it only takes moment to uncover and plug in. Fluff a branch here and there, and WAH LAH, Tree is up.
* Had a great post-thanksgiving thanksgiving party at Jamey and Erics over the weekend. This picture was taken while I was in my food coma.



Thats pretty much it for now. Back to work for now.

Hugs and Tugs !

Just got back from the grocery store. I would rather pour battery acid into my open eyes than go to the grocery store, especially the day before thanksgiving. $130.00 later I walked out somewhat numb but unharmed... but I can't say as much about all the dumb asses who were in my way. :)

Tonight we clean the house, Greg will start baking cakes. Its going to be a busy few days. So if I foget to say it tomorrow....
"HAPPY THANKSGIVING"

Hugs,
patrick

I am home this week since it is a holiday week. I already have to deal with the worlds busiest airport on a weekly basis ... last thing I want is to be there when it is the busiest travel week of the year. Not to mention they jack up the rates around this time of year. So I am home this week, and then next week I head to New Mexico for the first time this year. I finally got an airfare that wasn't an arm and a leg.. Just an arm. so I booked it with my other arm. The week after that I go to Salt Lake City for a short trip, and then I am home for a full month.

I need to start cleaning the house for Thanksgiving. So much to do. Hopefully Greg will be off on Wednesday so he can help. I don't want to have to go grocery shopping. I'd rather be traveling at the worlds busiest airport on thanksgiving week than deal with the local grocery store on the day before thanksgiving.

What else.... Oh, Love him or hate him... Adam Lambert's album is kick ass. I can't believe how many songs on there I like. I can't stop listening to it.

Lastly, my webcam died on my computer. I rarely use it, and the last time it was on I was laughing and saying how I looked jaundice cause everything was yellow. Apparently cam took offense to me saying it sucked, so it shut me down. bitch. I want a new computer.. so badly. I am so So SO tempted to go to the dark side that is Mac... I think I would love it once the frustration of not knowing where the fuck anything is wore off. But my fear is I would never get it, and would regret it. So I am torn on what to do. I have 2 HP computers. neither of them work completely, which is why I still use 2 laptops.. 2 half computers almost make up a whole working computer. If one dies, I'm screwed.

Almost time for AUCE Wings, so I'm gonna run. Good Talk. Lets do it again soon. :0)

yeah, I know its 2 words..  guess what else I know.. IT SUX !

Been dealing with it for less than a weekend and already its driving me crazy.  I hope they catch the douche bags who did this and I hope to see them go to prison.  I'm realistic though it wont happen, but ya never know.

Headed to Baltimore and Silver Springs tomorrow.  I hope its a good trip.  Looks like I'll get out just ahead of what could be some more flooding rains here over the next day or so from Hurricane Ida.

For now, my advise, keep an eye on your credit report and dont throw anything away with personal info on it.  I am still baffled at how someone got all personal info including SSN.  I mean, seriously !

Where has this week gone? 
Next week I start 3 more trips, albeit short ons.. 
Tues - Thurs in Wichita and Kansas
the following Tues - Thurs in Baltimore and Silver Springs
the following Tues - Thurs in Ft Lauderdale and Miami

then its Thanksgiving !!

Then just 2 more trips for December, and I am done for the year !!!!

well, I made it home from harrison nj.  no bullet holes, knife slashes, or std's !!  the show was better than expected, the crowd was fun, and the food was quite good every night.

I'm home for 9 days before heading up to kansas city and wichita next week.  I have not been there in over a year. 
then I am going to baltimore and silver springs before staying home for thanksgiving week.  yay for short trips !!

so what's been going on?  fill me in ... 

Today moved from Carlstadt NJ hotel to my hotel in Harrison NJ. 
Ready to go home, but here for 3 more days.  :(

Leaving tomorrow for NJ (again) for a full week....
I hate NJ for so many reason....
a) having to go into the office
b) not having a car, so no way to get around
c) the hotel has a crappy gym
d) having to go into the office ( sorry, said that already )
e) the weather

the only good thing about this trip is,  when I get home,  I am not traveling for about 2 weeks.. and after 9 straight weeks of travel, this is a much needed rest.

cheers everyone !

just a quick howdy from L. A.  hope everyone is having a good week so far.
