I think I've developed an NCIS addiction. http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/10/28/tonights-episode-of-house/ Here we are... The first of October.

Two years. --- Dear Sweetling, Yet again I've failed to get my act together and send you a card or a present. Not that ... http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/10/01/the-day-snuck-up-on-me/ I wasn't going to post today. I've nothing eloquent to add to any of the statements being made. And then my mom called me at work... Crying so hard that I didn't recognize her voice... My grandfather died today. My mom's daddy. I'm going down to C-bus tomorrow... Jeff's in Houston, preparing to weather ... http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/09/11/going-away-for-a-few-days/ There is internet at the house again. Thank you Jeff. Of course, I'm still posting this from work, but that's no one's fault but my own. So, what's on my mind... Ike. I no like Ike.

From what I've heard, it was a heart attack or some other heart issue. He was 23, and while he wasn't a close, personal friend, or really anything more than a general acquaintence, well, it's something that's got me ... http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/09/06/a-day-to-feel-mortal/ Princess C's birthday is today. I told Jeff to call and wish her a happy birthday, and I just thought I would send out some good vibes. If anyone is counting, we are T-minus 30 days to The Sweetling's 2nd birthday. Which means we're also T-minus 42 days until I'm 25. Other ... http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/09/01/happy-birthday-wishes-and-countdowns/ So I've got a to-do list a mile long, what with moving and GenCon and getting dressed for work and stuff (that's not in the correct order at all). Blogging and update my dear readers is somewhere on that list... I think. (Did I mention that I mis-laid the list? Or ... http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/08/14/a-ball-of-string-i-tell-you/ So, I haven't been saying much lately about adoption stuff. That's 'cause I haven't got much to say. Well that's not entirely accurate. I mean I've got lots that I could say, but I don't for whatever reason. There are some topics I leave well enough alone because I'm well aware that ... http://abarrelofnelsons.com/blog/2008/08/06/topics-topics-topics/ So I had this grand scheme of how I was going to post everyday in August, and start it out with a long drawn out series/thingy introduction. Then I didn't even look here yesterday. Oops. Oh, well, things are so crazy around here anyways, I probably wouldn't have made it a week.
