that wasn’t my last post of the year. This might be.
All I have to say is OY IT’S TOO DAMN EARLY TO BE UP
but we are getting an Early Start on the Moving.
And that is all.

So today in the middle of moving, this happened. We had to stop moving and come hole up at my parents’ again. Tomorrow will be spent in a last-minute frenzy of trying to get our furniture moved into our home before 2006 because I have a huge superstitious obsession with being in there at the [...]

If you look to the right, you will see that my flickr photos have finally changed. If you want to check them out, they’re some pics of our as-yet empty house. Just the downstairs, because I didn’t make it upstairs with the camera before Rob said “Let’s go I’m hungry!” and I was hungry too.
We’re [...]

I’m just going to get this out of the way right now, right at the beginning, so that there’s no room for doubt: My family is insane. Insane. Not in a “Oh we are so nutty! Look at us all lip-synching to Martha and the Vandellas while wearing our pyjamas!” way. More like a “Everyone’s [...]

IN DANGER.

Yay!
Of course it all only starts in February so I’ll have to find something to do to make money during January or we’ll be foodless, but whatevs! I got the job!

Overheard:
Louise running in from the shower: Rob! ROB! Look at my eyebrows! And my armpit! And my left knee! Look at all the hairs growing on me!
Rob: Well aren’t you a hairy buck?
Louise: I AM THE HAIRIEST BUCK IN THE WORLD!

I got a phone call today asking me to go in for a job interview tomorrow. Now, I haven’t interviewed for a job since… 2001 I think. Anyway it’s been awhile, and I’m a bit nervous, to say the least.
One thing I’ve always experienced in every single darn job interview I’ve been on is the [...]
