Had three strange dreams last night.

One I remember more detail about it then I do the other two. In the first, I was with a group of people in a hotel. We were packing our things up to leave. At some point I mentioned to someone in the dream that we sure did have a lot of things to take back with us and wasn't sure how we could do it. He seemed uncertain about it too. There were three rooms that out stuff was in I remember one of the rooms was "419" and it was down the hall from the other two rooms. That's all I remember about it.

In dream two, it was in black and white. Which is unusual for me, because I almost always dream in color. I do remember there were others involved, but not much more.

The third dream was preview for some movie I had never heard of and have no idea if it is even real. The dream was also in black and white. What I remember is mostly seeing this actor with sort of bushy hair, who was playing an actor in a stage play. At some point he has a light or a lighting effect blow up near him and it causes a part of his makeup to adhere to his face . He is devastated by this and that's all I remember.

Had a nice Christmas. With the weather we've had recently, coupled with the year we've had has left us not really in the Christmas mood. It wasn't a complete downer or anything, we still had a nice day, we just weren't aglow in the festive mood.


We technically had a white Christmas. The snow that had fallen last week was still on the ground, even if the temperature on Tuesday was in the lower fifties. Yesterday it started to snow again. Apparently we got more snow in our area than around the area Mom works. She said it was a little tricky get home, but she made it home safe.

Mom is working late tonight. Because of when Christmas fell, she will have to go in on Monday and run payroll. Hopefully It wont take her to long. To help out a bit, she's working late tonight.

Have been playing Splinter Cell Double Agent and I like it. Because I have played Splinter Cell Pandora Tomorrow and Splinter Cell Chaos Theory ( particularly this one) a lot, I am finding it fairly easy to get around the game. I ran into a brick wall with one thing and was able to find help online to get me past it. So far I am liking the game.

I am a bit depressed. The weather hitting the area on or near the weekends is putting a damper on the holiday mood. I do want to get out and go to Crown Center tomorrow, even though there is a snow storm ready to bear down on us as I type. Although the thought of going over there and fighting the crowds is unappealing, we have done very little festive type things this holiday season. The one thing I hate about some holidays, is that "everyone" seems like they have plans that involve doing big things and or visiting family. I know not everyone is big on Christmas, but the idea that if you don't have friends or family to party with and you're not spending a fortune on gifts that there is something wrong with you. The whole thing seems thrust upon us, that if you want to be alone or don't care to do it up big you're a loser. It's no wonder a lot of people kill themselves around this time of year.

Besides, I think Santa is a pervert anyway. Think about it! HE sees you when you're awake, he sees you when you're sleeping, he knows if you've been bad or good. What else is he gazing upon? Does he look at you in the shower, or as you're pleasuring yourself or someone else, does he have a lot of elf on elf action up north or something? And just what is Mrs Clause into? The whole thing sounds fishy to me.

The KC football team sucks. And until Carl Peterson leaves, they will continue to suck ass.

The tree we bought Saturday is up and decorated. Will get a photo up sometime soon, maybe.

Last year at this point I was in Paris. Being in Paris trumps everything about a holiday season.

The large order we had with Amazon arrived and I've been looking at a couple of the things. My part of the order included books, DVD's and Splinter Cell Double Agent for my GameCube.

We went out in the winter weather and got a Christmas tree. Its nice, cost almost 40 bucks, but it's nice.

The snow storm didn't amount to too much but at least we got something. If it warms up, it wont last long.

Haven't really been in a holiday mood this year. Such a strange and weird year in many aspects. Hopefully next year will be better.

We have an ice storm working it's magic on the area at the moment. Large chuck of the country is suffering from this icy fun.

The last part of our big Amazon.com order has finally shipped. I am anxiously awaiting it now, there are a couple things I want now but will have to wait.

Two weeks until Christmas. My shopping is done, just need a tree.

We have some snow and a little bit of ice out there. Had to get out in the weather yesterday to do a couple errands. It wasn't too bad. When we got to the grocery store, it turned crazy. All I wanted to do was purchase a couple things. I've never seen the place so packed. Every parking spot was taken and people parked where they should not have just so they could make a purchase. Luck was on my side as everything I was buying could be purchased at the customer service counter. The lines were easily fifteen people deep. Was thankful we had gotten our groceries Friday night.

The new sofa looks wonderful in the living room and goes great with the color scheme. My new bed is wonderful to sleep on and the sheets i have fit it just fine. I sleep under a comforter I had purchased earlier in the year but hadn't had a chance to use.

Had a headache yesterday, but I managed to get rid of it before lunch. The weather change is what caused it and thankfully it wasn't a bad one.

Sometime today will get an automated message from Nebraska Furniture Mart about when out delivery will be made tomorrow. Hopefully, I don't have to wait all day. Need to get a load of laundry done today. Will do it late if I need to, but I hope it doesn't come to that.

Had a long involved dream with me and some people I don't know in an airport. We were all rushing around trying to find gates to connect up with our other flights. As various times, we did slow down a bit and do some shopping and a little talking. But then we became a little frantic in trying to find out where we needed to go. At some point I realised I was already at my home airport, which looks completely different then it did in the dream, and began to leave. That's when the alarms went off and I woke up. I do remember there being a ton of people at the airport.

We bought a nice love seat, dark sage in color, and a mattress for me while we were shopping. I have needed a new mattress for some time. Maybe I will sleep a bit better now. Because it is a pillow top mattress, I wont be able to flip it over. I will just rotate it around, but not flip it. Will need to get in a habit of that.

The rain wasn't to bad Saturday. We left mid-morning, and because the ground still retained some heat, it wasn't too bad out on the streets. After we finished at Nebraska Furniture mart we went to Kmart and purchased a floor lamp and table. The lamp is a nice one, has brushed steel exterior. The table is a tiled top Mission style table and wasn't to bad to put together.
