Bits and pieces.
Dec. 2nd, 2007 06:11 pmNo Heavy Metal Sunday this week. With the holiday and Kevin Dubrow's death, I posted three last week. Let YouTube cool off for a minute.
I'm really hoping that this week is a lot less chaotic than last week. I really cannot tolerate anymore stupidity, and we're supposed to be entering the slow time of year!
We went out for a bit of shopping yesterday. Picked up my new VTA monthly pass at Lucky's (and it's nice to see that name again) then headed over to the mall to hit Target. The base reason was I need some thermals (don't laugh, we may not get that cold but I'm skinny and work outside most of the day) along with new shorts and socks. We ended up getting nice space heaters for the living room and bedroom, a new AT&T cordless phone set with three handsets, so we have one at the kitchen table, one here at the desk, and one in the bedroom. We also purchased![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
madelineusher's and apandaleaf's Winter Gifts. Getting out of the house for any reason is a good thing, as is Sbarro for lunch. Alas, I peopled out pretty bloody fast. I really don't like big crowds.
Football annoyed me this week. Cal loses the Big Game, Army loses for the sixth straight time to Squid U., and the Niners lost again.
Made a huge dent in the apartment mess. Several bags of trash were taken down. Still a lot to do. I'm hopingkshandra and I can give 15-30 minutes a night to doing things around here. After all, Santa Claus can't come unless your room is clean!
Speaking of Mr. Claus, Kylie has decided that Santa is responsible for all the Christmas decorations she sees. Busy guy! She and the rest of the Steele clan went to see the Los Gatos Christmas Parade, a tradition I remember from my childhood. That's one of the things I regret about not having kids - the chance to pass these traditions along.
Time to play some Nethack and watch the game.
