Merry Christmas Everybody!

It was pointed out to me that it's been a while since my last entry. For those of you who thought I might have been put out of commission by a rogue sausage roll at the Institut(ional) Christmas party, worry no longer. I am alive, well, and enjoying a downhome Christmas at my parents' house in Simcoe.
It's been a hectic few days since my last entry. Things I've learned in the meantime:
(1) A shopping mall on the last Saturday before Christmas should have you more concerned for your personal security than a day trip to Fallujah.
(2) Everyone in aforementioned mall arrived there in their own personal vehicle.
(3) Even Canadians have short memories where winter driving is concerned.
(4) Mother Nature doesn't care about your travel plans.
(5) Printers don't care about your travel plans.
(6) The Captain of Outer Space* harmonizes quite nicely to my rendition of Total Eclipse of the Heart.

Until next time, have a safe and happy holiday, and eat lots of turkey. That whole tryptophan thing is a myth anyway.

*Name changed to protect the innocent. He still doesn't know exactly what he's gotten himself into yet.

I just wanted to say hi, and if you are a geek, then I am an admirer of geeks. I like your writing, and you appear to be quite attractive to boot. Intelligence and attractiveness are a very hard thing to find in tandem these days.
