Christmas Cards

Part 3 of my Holiday Specials is all about Christmas Cards....which is both a blessing and a curse. It's a blessing when you get it from a family member, best friend or just someone you haven't heard from in a while (Well...the last one is an iffy topic for some people...so you can say it's both a...

Breakfast with Santa

Ahh...holiday traditions! How I love them! It seems like when things are on the downslope...there's alway something I can count on....and in my hometown of Hodgkins, it's Breakfast with Santa. It's basically meeting Santa at Macy's or Saks Fifth Avenue (just to name a store...I don't really know if... Sign in to see full entry.

Holiday Shopping

I'm going window shopping for the first time this Holiday season this Friday (hopefully)...mainly to get some ideas on what I want for Christmas.

New Entry

Just saw A Christmas Carol yesterday...and I thought it was good. It wasn't really great because there was an unneeded chase sequence and it was more like a PG-13 movie than a PG (All ratings are American...sorry *hides in box*). A Christmas Carol is Robert Zemeckis' version of the immortal classic... Sign in to see full entry.

Halloween

I had a really nice Halloween this year. I went as a devil this year and everyone thought I was cool (well...they mainly liked the wig and/or glasses)...hell, I saw another devil and I said hi (I know...yawn...but it was so funny!). One of the cooler costumes I saw was a guy who had a lampshade over... Sign in to see full entry.

*grumbles*

Don't mind me today....I think I might be PMSy.....but I'm just a bit irritated that I can't do somethings because I'm waiting for repair crews to finish with the bathroom. I know I should (so don't yell please!) but I need to get some things in preparation for Saturday so I can hang out with my... Sign in to see full entry.

What I'm thinking...part 1 (I think)

*Start Preachy mode* I know that my blog is a longer version of Twitter nowadays.....but I rather type out my boring life on a blog than on Twitter. Hell...I can only type in 140 characters! What am I suppose to do with 140 characters?! Type out how my day was?! I can't really do that without... Sign in to see full entry.

Halloween part 1 (what I'm going to be)

One of my favorite times of year is coming up soon (I think next Saturday) and I'm a little worried I'm not going to hang out with my friends again. Yea I know about the money situation but at least I got a cheap costume idea for this year. Unlike last year. Last year I was a clown (just a multi... Sign in to see full entry.

About my dad

As promised...I will explained what has happened with my father in the past year. Well...as best I can. After my mother's death...my dad quickly got back to work at MB Financial ( the company that bought out Oak Brook Bank a few years ago...which oddly enough my dad really enjoyed working...

P.S

I'll try to explain later about what happened to my father. All I'm going to tell you right now is that he got fired from his job last Halloween (a few months after my mom died). I say he got fired but he really got laid off...to me getting laid off is just a fancy way of firing someone. The only... Sign in to see full entry.
