aw damn

Burke Just mentioned my last Christmas shenanigans...

what is interesting is that I've been nostalgic for last year.... I had a ton of fun,

even though I only got Julie's to her on valentines..... I was out looking for some proper snowshoeing gear tonight, and also saw a copy of "The big Lebowsky" and couldn't help but think about the Local "Dude".

I also this year thought about doing the semi-surprise thing again..... But I wanted to try to ditch even the candy making out of Christmas.... Though I did make a batch or 6 with my yogi Cousin. it started with 2, then my cousin was so excited about it that it escalated.

I also keep pondering how to write up some kind of apology to Karen...

Further notes: I miss the old blog, or the way I used to blog, hopefully I'll settle into my life as it is soon, and I'll get back to regular time on the bike, and regular fitness. But my life is very different, which is part of the reason for the change in tone for this blog.

Work in progress........

Point being: I miss things too.

I just read the post in Sly's blog about how he didn't need to go to jail for Christmas...... I think about everyone knows where I stand on that one. But my guess is it wouldn't have been the first time....

You see what adults do is back charge him on the credit card, if your so inclined. But if I broke a window at every hotel that didn't have wifi i've been to.....
another option, and I've done this too, is if a hotel isn't clean enough or have their crap together, you don't stay there. Walk in the room, realize it's a dump and leave. Explain that it's not satisfactory to management, and cancel payment if they don't refund you completely There is no court in the land that if you go into a hotel room and decide it's not clean, and you leave without staying. But butt monkey wants to throw rocks like a child.
