Happy (belated) New Year!!

Damn. I just started this Blog and alreadyI've started slacking off. I'd love to say that I've been overly busy, but that would be a lie. Upon returning to my newly repowered abode, I just kinda settled in and coasted through the end of my winter break. I stayed in for New Year's (weak, I know, but it was actually kinda pleasant) and just enjoyed being in my own home.

New Year's Day I picked up my grandparents and returned to my parents' house. My mother always has family over to watch football, eat, watch football, eat and play cards. Well, suffice it to say that I lost my ass at poker this year. It didn't matter if I had a good hand or not, hell, it didn't matter if I switched seats--I couldn't win if my life depended on it. The gambling gods were not shining on me that day.

So, when I announced that I was going to head home and began saying my goodbyes, my family was actually sad to see me go. Of course this had more to do with the fact that their primary source of entertainment, beyond the bowl games, was packing it in and leaving. Between their amusement of my dog's antics, and their amusement of my own misfortune at the poker table, not to mention the fact that I was no longer going to provide people with a source of income, what ever were they going to do for added fun?

Well, as I said in my title for this entry, Happy belated New Year. I'm anticipating good things in 2005, hope you are too.
