Hey fellas.

I am alive and well and if you're on Twitter, you probably know this. I hate that I cannot post on here daily when shit pops into my head. I have so many random thoughts/funny shit I see or hear about and this f'ing site just continues to haunt me with being blocked at work.

Anyway, stuff:
- The kids are great. Can't wait for Christmas. Should be extra fun this year. I get the feeling that we bought too much.
- My parents will be here for Christmas, which is going to make it even super-awesomer. They get here Thursday and leave next Thursday. We have some fun shit planned and I have a few days off of work.
- Work is wrapping up nicely for 2013. Amy & I both had really great years at work and that is turning out to be really good for the family. We're in a good spot right now all around.
- Amy's work party was a few weeks ago and was a lot of fun. The highlights were a family hour with a really great Santa showing up (William loving it & LEwis hating it), a cowboy/country theme that led to me realizing how comfortable cowboy boots are, an great open bar and a Christmas miracle in the after party bar having Pappy Van Winkle 12-year. I bought one glass (I was bombed at this point so I barely remember how it tasted) and they price gouged me for $38. I know they gouged me b/c my buddy had an exact pour at a local casino last year for $16. Still, though. I HAD SOME PAPPY!
- My work party was last week. It's pretty laid back and is more of a good time for the younger engineers, who go out, get hotel rooms and do it up down in the P&L District. We just were old people, drank domestics & wine and left by 10:30. To our credit, or more appropriately to discredit the assumption that we're super old and boring, we did have a family party to go to early the next morning so we didn't get too crazy.
- Good luck to Joey G this weekend as he goes for the PSU/A-Town fantasy football title! Exciting times. Also, fantasy football is dumb.
- The NBA is great! Portland is super fun to watch and I'm excited to have Christmas at my house this year and thus have NBA games in the background all day.
- I had a tough time coming up with a Christmas list for those who wanted to buy me stuff this year. I will probably regret/not use 50% of the stuff I put on there b/c I got some flack for originally putting "Amazon gift cards"/"Banana Republic gift cards"/Cash/etc. Amy did get me some really great work shoes (we exchange early b/c we're both dumb and can't wait to give presents), so it's at least off to a good start. Anyone getting/expecting anything fun?

That's all. I have to go change Will's shitty diaper now b/c he still won't shit on the toilet and holds it all day until he goes to bed in a diaper and then shits more than an adult male at 8pm on Thanksgiving. Parenting!
