Some times I think of really witty and useful things to post on here, but it's usually as I am falling asleep and of course when I wake up six hours later, POOF, gone from my brain. I've got a brain like a sieve. I do remember one thing. I was thinking about Christmas presents when I went to bed and how I have kept a very close spreadsheet on everything this year. I know every single present under the tree, how much it was, how I paid for it, if I used a CC is it paid off already, etc. It's similar to how I approach my bills these days. I was thinking how ironic it is that this is what X2 was striving for all those years and I couldn't get it through my thick skull. But to get to this point, I had to go through all that hell. Amusing in a screwed up sort of way.

One of my friends got some bad news last night. There was a bad fire in a warehouse the other night and one of his former students was listed amongst the missing. They found her body in the wreckage. Very sad indeed.

I took the day off yesterday and had a marathon WoW session. Made it to 101, finished a couple of big quest lines, and got some cool stuff in return. I just didn't feel like doing nothing all day but yet pretending it was stuff that was important. Some days I wish I was a contractor and only had to worry about things when I am scheduled to teach. The document days are the worst. Hard to motivate me.

In more important news IT SNOWED! For like 20 minutes and it didn't stick, but it was fun to watch from inside with the heater on. I haven't looked outside yet, but there was some prediction of a little overnight snow. If there is anything I am sure it isn't sticking, but it's fun to imagine. The upside of not having to commute or worry about being outside.

We didn't feel like cooking last night and went out for sushi. Spent a little more than I would have liked, but it was good. Got back, relaxed, watched some tv together, and I went to bed around 10. Slept okay. Tossed a little bit.

I have a BIG class today. Two sessions, 9 and 12 now. All with remote desktop connections. It's going to be a rough day.

I just thought about how I haven't written about my mental health lately. I guess because it's okay. I am not severely depressed. I am not stressed out too bad. Not beyond that of my ability to handle. That's a good thing. I am okay. And you're okay too. Yeah, I'm a smart ass.
