Shhh....I'm Studying

Work & Play
As my final words to the world..."I love you all." As soon as Shena reads this post she is going to kill me. I'm at the office and I'm supposed to be studying for a "CLU" test. And it upsets her when I spend more time here than I should (that's about every day). But my eyes were getting droopy and I needed to do something else for a bit. I made a quick check of our blog and realized that it's almost been a month. I don't want to upset our fan (Lenny: Hey, wasn't that our fan?). You know who you are.

I won't get into details. Here's the long and short, in run-on sentence, poor punctuation and total disregard for uppercase style...ignore all punctuation from this point on...wait this point...ahh...how can I get you to look past the part where I type "this point" to the end of the last three dots...yeah, do that...from this point on...surgery? no luck, doc didn't find squanto - shena recovered, but still having pain when it rains mainly on the plains in spain - a handful of memories is rolling along purdy good, had a holiday market booth a couple weeks, cheeto says it was a smashing success, shena pessimistic, but has no time to blog - introduced ornament hands to the repertoire just for holiday market and sold a bunch of those, very popular - will have done about 100 hands as direct result of holiday market before christmas is here - cheeto working like his family depends on it, right, they do - working hard to build a client base (since you are reading this, who do you know that was recently married? recently divorced? recently had/adopted a child? recently won the lottery? recently won a large cash settlement from the doctor who performed the lobotomy? was recently maimed by an exploding duck?...here's my card, I'd like to talk to them) - boys both played soccer this fall, it was a weekly competition to see who would score more goals between the two of them - analise is learning how to get away with as much as possible by flashing (her smile) - spent time traveling...one weekend in atlanta, another in buena vista, va (home of southern virginia university, the fighting mormons (i think) & headquarters of east coast operations for pinnacle security - if you need a good summer job, let me know, I know a guy) - looking forward to vacation...one week in orlando, fl with the christensen side of the family, sans posterity, (can you say "hello pleasure island"?)...i'm going to show them what i've learned from 'dancing with the stars' - shena and i are still addicted to some of our shows...house, heroes, lost, the office, dancing with the stars, biggest loser, cops, the first 48, i'll let you figure out who watches what show - happy to see my steelers winning games, if you ignore last week vs. the ny jets, and having my heart broken as i watch my panthers get worse as the year goes on (hey vinny, shady acres called, they want their walker back) - enjoying all the new blogs from friends that have recently sprung up... ed & dede plummer, matt & tia jolley, nathan lindsay, aaron & lauren johnston, jimmy & becky adams - what else? now you remember why you liked it better when shena posted...she doesn't ramble and is much less self-centered.

Llano Update (Cheeto's Brood)
I think I've done a good enough job up there for now.

I know most of you hate that I do this, but I'm going to keep doing it...because I like to read it myself. This is MY journal, after all. I glanced back at a posting or two from a while back and saw what I ate. Very interesting. When I think about it, I will be posting my meals. Not to gross you out, but because I like to see the kind of crap I eat. Someday I'll be able to look back and say, "you know what? I think my colon was JUST FINE, until [insert date here]. That was the day I ate [completely disgusting, carb filled, trans filled, whateverelseisbadforyou filled] for dinner. That was what did it. "

So...

Breakfast - more like brunch today...10:00 or so - mini almond joy bar, mini baby ruth (all courtesy of Coit Slack, my little buddy. He went through his Halloween candy and essentially said "one for me, one for mommy's friends at the office (mfato), one for me, one for mfato").

Lunch - corn tortillas with melted shredded cheese (about six of them)...good for the heart I hear, A&W root beer

Dinner - straight mexican, baby....pintos with cheese, on flour tortillas, chicken guiso (meat cooked with vegetables for you whiteys out there), caffeine free coke.

Treats tonight - hmmm...haven't gotten there yet. But I think I hear some hostess cupcakes calling my name, along with the obligatory glass of milk.
