Well, it is now 2005. What does that mean? It means we're now in an "odd" year. So, what's going on since the peach dropped? Hmmm...
- Caryl, Nattsu's former college roommate visited us from Boston.
- Santa brought me some poker chips. Anyone up for Texas Hold'em?
- I start back to work on the 10th but have already gone in to get prepared.
- My proposal for a new course won me a Dell Inspirion laptop (which will likely belong to the department but be under my 'control')
- My lame-ass cable company, CHARTER COMMUNICATIONS is neglecting maintenance on their lines, causing my connection to be REALLY slow and its pissing me off. The trouble started 3 weeks ago RIGHT at the most critical time - when we got off for the holidays and wanted to do some online gaming. Fuck you, Charter.
- I visited John McDole's new house - very nice John, very nice.
- I saw John May's busted ass car - yes, the new one. Go go speed racer. But grats on the fiance.
- I'm teaching five classes this semester. 4 Public speaking 101 classes and 1 Public speaking for Engineering students class.
- My aunt Kathy didn't call me back about visiting during Natalie's stay. =p
- We did drive over to see Thomas, Hiromi, and Theo while they were down. Thanks to John and Alice who have a beautiful home underground.
That's about it so far. This is only the first week of the year. We'll see how the rest of it goes. I am hopeful for a great year, 2005.
