Okay, I thought I was addicted to the Wii Sports, but I am not…I am addicted to Super Mario Galaxy!!! I spent all day today, in between laundry, vacuuming and bathing children playing this damn game! My left thumb is on FIRE it is so raw - I seriously had to put it on ice tonight. How in the hell does a 31 year old mother of two get hooked on a damn video game? I did not even turn on my computer until 6PM - did you hear me? 6PM!!!!!! The last time that has happened was…well long enough ago that I cannot even remember! I did get pretty far in the game though. I finally had to walk away because I got so frustrated with one level. I may have to set my alarm for tomorrow morning, so I can get up before the kids do and beat that level before they want to play!

We had an amazing Christmas!  I am so tired from it all.  I will post the hi-lights from the day tomorrow!  Promise!  Hope everyone had a great day!

Merry Christmas everyone!  I hope that everyone has a wonderful Christmas and they get everything they want!  We have spent our evening putting together all of the gifts for “Santa!”  Now it is time to hurry up and get some sleep, before the kids wake up.  I will report back tomorrow with photos and video of our Christmas morning!

Today at work, one of the IT guys left his notebook/portfolio thing on top of his car and did not realize that he did, so a co-worker and I stole it and spent the whole day messing with him - because that is the kind of shit that I live for. First he got emailed a ransom note from a made up g-mail account.

Next he got a reminder photo emailed of what was at stake if he did not comply with the note’s requests. Now, I have to add that this particular IT guy gets a lot of shit from us for several reasons. First, he does not clip his nails enough and it drives us crazy. He looks like some kind of coke-head with those fingernails. Second, he wears this god-awful floor length black leather trench coat like he is in the freaking Trench Coat Mafia or something - OMG it is so bad. So that should help you understand the caption on the photo below…

As the clock ticked closer to 3:00 and he had not stopped bitching about his notebook being gone, nor had he left to go get the french fries and tic-tacs, he got a follow-up photo emailed to him to remind him what was at stake. Now the funny part about this, is that we propped the notebook up on another (unaware and innocent) co-worker’s car for the photo, and when he saw it, he went in her office and seriously got a little shitty with her - which made us laugh even harder - like uncontrollably.

If I could not do shit like this on a regular basis at work, I think I would lose my mind. That is why Dena and I hit it off when we met and worked so well together, she was always the perfect accomplice!
