what I want does not cost any money. I just want my husband to give me about 2 weeks off. I'll drive somewhere really cool and hike for a week or so (considering that the trip will take me about 3 days one way). That's all I want.

I want to have that warm and fuzzy feeling that I used to have around Christmas time as a kid. Being completely safe with your family there, no worries, not a care in the world. I wish I could get that back.

Have faith, pineneedles. What you ask for is possible. Fleeting perhaps, but possible.

Merry Christmas!

You don't really need anything to hold you up on a Tokyo subway, all the people crushed into the car all around you do the trick quite nicely.

Know how you can tell when you drank too much?


When you wake up in the morning and you aren't wearing any pants, and neither is the pig next to you.

I saw a stack of DVDs under the wife’s tree and I said, “Ohhh, I know what THAT is.”, thinking it was the complete Band of Brothers DVDs. She said, “Nope. You’ll never guess in a million years!”. Then some dude calls me saying, “This is so and so from Time/Life Entertainment, the Beavis and Butthead Division” and wants to know how we’re enjoying our Beavis and Butthead DVDs! HAHAHAHAHAHA! I told him I didn’t know because I haven’t GOTTEN THEM FOR CHRISTMAS YET!!! “Um, uh, OK. Have a nice day.” [click]

Needless to say, I have the goods on my wife now!

Nigal - come on now admit it - you opened the package when she was out didn't you - you don't have to make up some story for us.

I know. Could you imagine having to tell people you work in the Butthead division? I asked the guy if I could talk to Mapleleaf real quick to say HI but he acted like he didn't know what I was talking about.

I want a warm cabin at the end of the trail with a beautiful Little Lady as my trail companion. A fireplace crackling, beef stew and cornbread cooking, salad chilling and a bottle of chianti on the table. A thick comforter on the cozy double bed. A nice novel on the nightstand. Warm water in the deep, clawfoot tub with flannel pajama bottoms hanging on the hook. A mellow yellow lab on one throw rug and a mellow black lab on the other throw rug.










What are my chances?

I'm lucky to pretty much have what I need and most of what I want, of material things.
A nice agreeable lady friend would be nice to have, but I'm working on that, ha ha.

Really
I would settle for a quite day at work on Christmas. Not a house burning or a heart attack churning.
Not a tree ablaze
Not a valley with smokey haze
Not a domestic fight
Just friendly faces and Christmas lights
Not a traffic accident
Not an attempted suicide
Just friendly faces and people being kind.
For me I want a quite day at work
No one fighting no one getting hurt.
I want kids that are laughing
Parents with a grin
All the familys together
A peace from within.
This is what I want
I hope I didn't ask for too much
Peace on earth
And a world that is just.

I was hoping to get a plane ticket and a few days in CA, but looks like I'll get an annual Sandia Tram pass instead.


That would put this 30 minutes from my office and 20 from home
