“They call that a “WOW” deal.”

And then again.
Back in North Carolina safe and sound from my “first” round of holiday travels. The Christmas holiday was very quiet this year - but, a welcome reprieve nonetheless. It included the big stops in Pittsburgh, PA and Erie, PA, a lot of food, a decent amount of beers, a cameo appearance from this guy and (by the skin of my teeth) I got out of Pennsylvania before the snow really hit...

Tumblr App.
Work with me here. I can’t have you being all touchy when I am on my holiday travels.
I should finally have some quality time with you…so work it out. Please.
More miles.
Last week I posted my hiking and running totals. Well, I logged in another 3.1 miles before the holidays. Consider this an addendum. Running totals sitting roughly at 140.09 miles for 2011. Nice.

And done.
Never thought it would get here…but, finally, no more work for this guy in 2011. It’s gonna have to wait until 2012. Hmmm, maybe I can win the lottery between now and then. Then I can forget about work just a little longer…
One more day!
Yes!!! One more day and I don’t work again until after the new year. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Truthful Tuesday.
Tonight marked the first night in a few weeks where I have been able to do something for myself during the course of a weeknight that wasn’t work related.
So, I ran. I ran so far away. It may mark the last time that I get a chance to run before I embark on holiday travels to my home state of Pennsylvania. In realizing this, I checked on my records for the past year of my miles. Before I...

Almost famous.
Just saw my picture in a local newspaper for some awards my company won. Too funny. I mean, I’m a celebrity. Boom.

Thank you Wendy's.
Thank you Wendy’s Chili…you are happily making a chilly day warmer. It is also a lot better than the 90 calorie granola bars I have been living off of for the last two weeks.

Could've, should've, would've.
Damn. I could have been out of here by now (it is 6:45pm) - but, ran into a glitch uploading a big project. Son of a bitch. Instead…looks like I will be here after 7:00pm again. (Even when I am on top of things it seems like there is another force working against me.)
Very funny…not.

Miami Marlins: How am I now just seeing this?! →
Yeah, speculators are correct…apparently no one learned from the Houston Astros of the 70s. Hey Miami…I have news for you, I don’t see cap and jersey sales rocketing through the roof. True story.

Tick tock and you don't stop.
Another late night. The countdown continues. Seven working days. You heard me - seven! After that, I don’t have to worry about “work” again until after the first of the year (the 3rd to be exact).
I-need-some-time-to-relax…
Damn.

Late, late, late, late, late.
The jobby job is causing days to fly by. Why is it always so busy this time of year?!
I walk into work, and before I know it I have plowed through all my coffee and it’s 1:00. I take a minor reprieve for lunch and lo and behold it’s 4:00 with even more work to do.
Been clocking the late nights like mad…and what do I get for my troubles? Absolutely nothing. That’s how...

The calm before the storm.
So hear we are, Thanksgiving down with Christmas and New Years to go. Yikes. Time is flying by and I almost want time to pass to get the New Year here and start over again.
Things have been rolling along quite well lately minus the lack of funds which always seems to rear its ugly head this time of year.
Things will be a little touchy at work the next two weeks though. After two arguments...
