I wonder if I will write while I am off work

12-20-13

Crap, 5 more days??? Crap? More like FUCK!!

Clearly, I have some shopping to do this afternoon. I have to get some cookie dough, items for cookie decorating, a present for Grammie, and just a few other things. I will most likely pick up the gift cards for my folks and Matt, too. I still want to pick up some jammies for the boys. It means lots of running around tonight!

Last night was awesome. The boys had their Christmas program and I am telling you, they never fail to make me all happy. Dax got to do his “guitar solo” with a handful of other kids and he was a rock god out there. Bobby ate his bug with less gross out factor than I think he planned, but he was so damn cute it was wonderful to watch. We stayed after to help clean up, too, doing our part for the school. All around a wonderful night.

This morning I am clearly just going through the motions. I went through old pics to post fun Christmas pictures. I am on a high of having the best photos of the boys last night in their handsome attire and in front of Steve’s fireplace where they looked amazing. My house is made for photo ops, which is another reason it is the place I am meant to be.

I feel a little bad that I will be dragging the boys all over the place today, but they will be fine, being able to play Minecraft tomorrow morning while we bake and before we head over to meet Grammie.

I have become re-inspired to write my stories down. I was talking to John D yesterday, just matter of factly telling him things and he was just blown away at the tales. I was surprised and he told me really I should write them all. I now have a new idea for narrative in the idea of making the book a random conversation between two people, with one person telling stories that will end up switching to me talking and jumping between all of these wacky things that have happened to me and my friends over the years. Now, I need to start writing an outline and jotting down the stories in a couple lines so I can figure out which ones to include. If I do this right, it will be pretty damn awesome.


Now to kill some time.
