So, I had the opportunity to meet up with mom, dad, Jason, Taylor and the bebe, Nessa over the holidays. Initially I was snowed out of the Kansas City airport on Thursday morning, but I did make the flight in on Friday morning. There was only a minor delay flying in and despite the fact that Kansas and Kansans in general are not well equipped for the snow, we managed just fine... being that our family is from "the Great White North" and all, we knew how to get around a great deal better than the Kansans, but that doesn't mean we didn't get the car a little stuck-y-poo for a minute or two. Important bonus: My vinyl bright-freakin-pink combat boots are waterproof. Win for me.
It was nice to be able to get away from work for a while and very nice to be able to see everyone, I wouldn't trade it for the world. That being said, it's very nice to be back in the big city.
I've also started another blog, called "I eat too many" ( Here ) that details the culinary adventures of myself and my roomie, Kobold. We're getting pretty good at this whole blogging thing and someday hope to be able to write it off as a business expense/become independently wealthy beyond all measure. Yeah... right.
At any rate, I'm still single, still living the good life here in Las Vegas, with a few minor interruptions from drama here and there. Generally speaking, it's nothing gigantic and should be left at work, for the most part.
I've had to take a few deep breaths and go stomp around outside the call center like an angry dragon - this generally seems to work. This and the fact that when I take a problem to my manager, if I can explain what's going on and what I think I need to do to fix it and/or what he should do to fix it, he's behind me 100%. Can't beat that with a stick. That and he gives me candy. Candy fixes almost everything.
Continuing on, I've been talking with a few old friends from here, there and everywhere and I've apparently been marketed as a welcoming person who happens to live in a rockin' place to visit. Not complaining here, kids, just thought it was worth mentioning. Bring me your tired, your hungry and.. other things. Eff it, bring me your Asians with rope skills, bring me your Floridians with time off and very little balance on their credit cards!
Also, I'd like to add here that we're prepping for a Renn event in the middle of this month in Umbira (aka: Phoenix) and I'm super-jazzed about being able to see my gypsies/Mr. Puck/The Jenn.. not only that, but I hear that Ms. Shahara (her Imperial Pointy-hattedness) is selling garb. I am SUPER excited about this, as I do so need new garb and it's bound to be ridiculously pretty. . . gypsies don't dress plain. The only issue may be that I'll have to spend money on books in a minute here, for my classes and.. well.. books do come before looking pretty, despite what other people may think. Stupid learning.
