Do you remember it?  That’s from the Smurfs!  I’ve had a smurfy day I think.  Of course, it could also have been a smurfy day, I’m not honestly sure which.  My skin isn’t blue after all.  I’m thankful for that, because my wife’s skin isn’t blue either (though she is wearing a smurfy-blue t-shirt).  Some of the lights on our Christmas tree are though.  We got our tree cut, hauled home and put up over the weekend.  Decorations went up last night … and some of those are blue too!  Wow.  That’s a lot of blue.

Work has been going reasonably well.  I had a lovely total of 5 meetings today.  Ick.  I currently have 4 scheduled for tomorrow.  None on Wednesday, but that’s because I’m going to a funeral.  :(  My great aunt went home to the Lord last week after battling health issues for years, most recently cancer.  Wednesday night I have a Dance Theatre preview to go to so I have an idea what sort of craziness I’m in store for come March.  Thursday .. more meetings, though I will be going with on a Dr. appointment for Warren and Laura in the morning as well and I’m currently thinking I may skip a meeting Thursday afternoon.  Friday, I might actually get some work done too!

Last Friday Liz and I actually had a night out!  We went to see Bryan Adams at the State Theatre for “a very special acoustic performance.”  It was excellent.  He was hilarious.  The audience was great… many women professing their love for him.  He likes them that way apparently … his women … “drunk and horny”.  Many laughs were had.  Really wouldn’t mind seeing him again, ideally with his band (not that his guitar playing was anything to scoff at).

I really need to get into my Christmas shopping.  I haven’t done any to speak of (any at all?) yet.  Funny how that happens.  I know I’m a guy, but it’s not because I’m procrastinating…. life is getting in the way at times.

Well, apparently the cat has decided that a portable computer is not the appropriate lap warmer and I need to pay attention to her instead.  ttfn.
