Got a christmas card from one of the company bosses last night. Better late than never? I guess. But the thing is, who still sends cards any more? Seriously. I got a total of about 5 cards. Let's see, the kid's grandmother, one set of friends, two from the bosses, my dad, and one from B's aunt. So six. Think about it. People sent cards as a way of staying in touch with people they didn't see or talk to all year. With social media and all the other ways of staying in touch these days, it's a bit old. Think about the cards you may have received. Did you get one from anyone under 30? I haven't sent cards in probably a good 8-10 years. Don't see the point any more. A dying tradition I feel. I didn't even keep the card. I just threw it away. I don't need a picture of your family. I know what they look like. Especially since I didn't get it until after the fact.

Worked a lot yesterday. Actually felt productive for the first time in a week. Got some major things accomplished. Was doing great until B called and I had to go pick her up at work. We almost ended up in the emergency room. One of the cats freaked and punctured a hole in her hand. It wouldn't stop bleeding and they were about to call an ambulance when they finally got it subsided. I ended up picking her up because her boss wouldn't let her drive herself home. It was a pretty bad wound, but we kept it iced and wrapped and it finally calmed down. She was in pain most of the night which sucked because she had to finish that sewing project. Which she did. We then went and did a final fitting for our friend.

Made chicken fried steak with biscuits and gravy for dinner. I just had a random hair up my ass as I had bought biscuits when I went grocery shopping. I decided screw it, let's make some gravy. Turned out quite well I think. I had never made gravy like that before and was pleased with the results.

We watched a mini-marathon of grey's anatomy and then off to the bedroom. Ended the year on a high note says I.

Yes, it's the end of the year. Another year will be behind us in 16 hours. A pretty damn good one I feel. I managed to get things done, managed to find B, managed to stay a float. Pretty happy with 2013 all in all. The kid got her own place. I have moved to a better place in my head. I took 21 trips to 9 states last year. 5 Disney trips. Not a bad year. Got a new car. Let's keep this trend up in the new year, shall we?
