Interesting things

My buddy posed an interesting question the other night.

If there was something in your life you wanted so much, could you have it? I mean if you devoted everything, all your time and all your resources could you get it? It's interesting. He used it in terms of women (Hillary Duff of all broads) but I was thinking more about it. I think it's something that you could associate with everything.

Regardless, it will probably be something I ponder from time to time.

Onto the Ole' life.

Been a fairly interesting week.
Monday was interesting, weird and fun.
Tuesday was the start of the work week so it wasn't great but I was able to work ahead.
The rest of the holiday week was pretty laid back. Me and the Geenis did Thanksgiving at Jill's. The food was delicious. Not a whole lot else happened. Went out a couple times with minimal HEF's. Met a rando on Friday night. He initially seemed off and real weird. Turns out the dude was totally sweet. Watched Donnie Darko and a couple others. My friend Melinda came back to town for the holiday and it was certainly good to see her. It was just a lot of "old man" hanging out.

Watched Four Christmases. It wasn't horrible and it wasn't great, but it certainly got me in the holiday mood.

As I've mentioned I've still been reading this book called Everyday Survival. With the holiday and everybody bustling around I haven't had a whole lot of time for reading. Anyways, it poses the question of why we make the decisions we do. It's got me thinking a lot about why we do make our decisions. I'm not totally sure and will probably never be, but the book does explain why we do some things. Check it out if you get a chance.

Other than that things are going pretty well. Think I'm getting a better handle on things and am understanding, or at least thinking more about, what my next step is.

Got some new skis which are totally sweet. Only problem is I have to get some new boots. It's OK, however, as the skis are really sweet. Looking forward to the first turns. Used to love skiing, got sick of it, went a couple times and I get the itch. Heck for all I know, and with the way I am making decisions, I may be a ski bum in Telluride at this time next year.

Onto sports.

CU kills me. Plus I watched the game with a bunch of Nebraska fans. So the game doubly hurt. The Bills are done and we're 1-5 with the Paul Posluszny jersey. I may have to burn the son of a bitch. Unfortunately for both teams I get to mutter that stupid five word sentence. "There is always next year."
Since nobody likes hockey we won't bring up the Sabres shortcomings.

HEF of the Week
Was at the high school on Saturday. Not looking for a date to prom but working on a story. Anyway, I'm talking all this trash to the parents waiting for their kids to come out of the locker room about how much I know about sports. I mean they'd ask me about something and I'd reel off some beautiful gems. So I'm rolling, it comes to two guys I know that like Oklahoma State. I, in my moment of glory, say I'll give you 21 and the Cowboys. Horrible bet. Luke's out $50 and is broke as it is. Thanks for winning by 20 Oklahoma. Thanks a lot.
