Merry Christmas

Just wanted to pop in and wish everyone Merry Christmas. *GASP* That's right...I said CHRISTMAS! We're all ready to go. Everything's bought and wrapped. Stinky is anxiously awaiting Ho Ho so she can open all her presents. And she has a TON of them. I am not gonna lie either....I can't wait to open my stuff! I love presents....LOVE 'EM! So does my wife and she has a gazillion of them too. I make no bones about the fact that I am in it primarily for the presents since I am a materialistic bastard. But the best part will be Stinky.

I always hate this week at work. There are a lot of people out next week since they take the whole week off between X-mas and New Year. Therefore a lot of people try and cram everything in the world into this week and get a ton of stuff done before next week's exodus. Well Vinny doesn't work that way. My boss started in with it already. "Hey Vinny we need to make sure of this and do that by the end of the week". So I says to him, "Hey Paul...Vinny is gonna do the same shit this week as he does the other 51 weeks of the year. All that happens when you try and cram this stuff in is that it gets done half-ass or all fucked up so no, I will not jump through my ass to try and rush to failure and screw everything up". He thought about it and agreed....good.

I got a Christmas card from my co-worker Mary Ann this morning that had one of those scratcg off lottery tickets in it. I didn't win shit.....It's a Christmas Miracle!

I have to stop by the grocery store on my way home today....AGAIN! You see what happened is that I had bought a bunch of shrimp because I am gonna make steamed Old Bay shrimps for X-mas eve appetizers. Well anyway last night I couldn't resist the lure of the shrimp in the freezer and I dumped them all into my underwear and sat on the couch and listened to old Wham! records and did a crossword puzzle. It's just another way I like to relax and pass time.

I farted a little while ago while I was over by the microwave and fridge in the break area. Some woman came to get a drink out of the fridge and was like, "Wow, what's that smell?" I said, "Some dude just microwaved some fish a few minutes ago". She nodded and walked away. I think she bought it. I hope so because she was hot. Older lady but hot!

When do the 12 days of Christmas start? I know it's 12 days long but when is it?

On my desk at work I have like 5 picture frames with pics of Stinky and me and my wife in them. I have started to put them on random other workers' desks and wait until they notice and see what they do. So far it's taken everyone a long time to notice but they think it's a hoot when they finally figure it out.

I am planning a family trip to North Carolina in March. Not sure for how long yet but it's gonna happen. I will be bringing a few of my costumes along with me.

I just read an article that PA is making the decision today on who will receive the final licenses to open slot machine casinos. There's one already not too far from here in Wilkes-Barre at the horse track but it's operating under a conditional license and it's very small with not too many machines. The resort where I play in my golf league--Pocono Manor--is one of the applicants and so is Mount Airy which is also nearby. At least one of the 2 is assured to receive a license. Can you say CHA-CHING! My property value is gonna fucking skyrocket! Not to mention that the revenue is going to be used to reduce property taxes so I am gonna make out like a bandit. Good shit. It's a Christmas Miracle!

Well that's about it I guess. I don't know if/when I will blog again this week. So if I do not then I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas or Happy Festivus...."for the rest of us".
