Hello again, old friend.

Okay, so I sort of neglected my blog during NaNoWriMo and the following month of Holiday Hell. It wasn't intentional.

I'll catch everyone up to speed on November-December.

November- I started working for Estee Lauder. Only slightly different from working Philosophy and I am now responsible for meeting sales goals. I can't say that I'm too excited about that, but what can you do, right? It's my firm belief that no sales-based job should have quotas in a struggling economy. That will never happen in a capitalist society. I digress.

A friend of mine moved to Ohio and work became a little more dull without her around. I love the other gals there, but you can tell we all miss Alicia.

We had our first co-op Thanksgiving as a married couple. My friend Mary brought us together with her family to celebrate the holiday properly. It was a pretty decent spread for our first attempt and everyone had a good time.

December- Most of the month was shopping and working. Until Christmas night. We had just picked up the girls from their Mom's house and were one whole exit on our way home from Lebanon when the Corolla died. Luckily, we were able to exit and stay out of traffic, but it was quite the experience nonetheless. I'm glad I kept a cool head with two girls in the backseat.

'92 Corolla = Dead engine. The mechanic is currently trying to find a replacement... but that would be more money than that little shitheap is worth. We'll see.

That pretty much brings everyone up to speed. I hope the holidays were awesome.
