SEMI-MONTHLY "YEAH-I'M-STILL-ALIVE" POST: Happy New Year, jerks...
- We had a broken toilet here over the weekend due to a septic tank badly needing to be pumped out. While I do appreciate having a fully functioning bathroom again, I vaguely miss the experience of peeing in a bottle. And yes, that does mean I don't go to arena sporting events.
- Arrested Development has only been gone for only two days and I miss it already, especially since its replacement on Monday nights is (ugh) Skating with Stars. And what's worse, one of the "stars" is Dave Coulier. Has he done ANYTHING since Full House, besides Alanis?
- I wonder if Bill O'Reilly will cover the very real War on the Middle Class with as much vigor as the phony War on Christmas. Between the doubling of all credit card minumum payments and the effective end of bankruptcy as we know it, this is going to be a bad, bad year for anyone with outstanding debts...which is pretty much all of us.
- ...and yes, I made out a list of improvements I need to make for '06. Not resolutions...this is an AGENDA. Fully businesslike with all the obnoxious overbearingness the word implies. There are very few things that don't have to change by this time next year, and that starts with keeping this stupid thing rolling for the four or five people that got into the habit of looking in. I've resigned myself to the idea this probably won't get me the book deal I was looking forward to, but heck, there's just too much of it to throw away. Don't you feel lucky?
- No? Well, too bad. I'm still here.
