My company websites got hit by malware again and for the past three days, that has been my entire life. Which sucks, because I don’t get overtime and I am WAY over my pay grade and my education level. Total nightmare.

For more fun, my sister and I were going to throw our parents a recommitment ceremony and when we told them this morning (assuming they’d want to prepare), they were less than enthused.

The best part was when they said we could do a triple wedding instead. My sister marries her boyfriend (who she lives with), I marry the Chop (who I live with) and they do the recommitment thing. Haha. In other words, what they would prefer for their anniversary present would be that their daughters would quit shaming them. Nice, eh?

Oh well, that just means I can save flight money and go somewhere awesome for vacation. I’m thinking Ireland or Paris. 🙂

Yet another awesome Google thing. Google, CALL ME!

Macworld debuted some awesome stuff… the new thin Macbook and the upgrade for the iPod Touch are my two favorites right now. Mail, Notes, etc., so nice. Exactly what I was missing. 🙂

Is gross, old insulation bad for you? We used masks, and gloves, and we showered immediately after, but cleaning the two bags full of fallen insulation out of the attic was disgusting. Also, we both bumped our heads pretty severely.

Then the dog had diarrhea, rapidly followed by the cat (who got a bath) and during some picture-hanging that we had neglected in the bedroom, Chop smashed his finger and his toe.

It was a really, really long day, lol.

It’s been snowing here since last night, which is good in the sense that it’s winter and we’d like to not have global warming, but bad in the sense that it’s cold, still snowing and Chop is supposed to head to NYC for work tomorrow.

Which means I’m on dog duty. In the snow. And I hate that.

Last night we went out to dinner with some friends, and after learning that they also have a Wii, ended up back here afterwards, drinking and battling rabbids.

It turns out playing Wii against a girl is SO much nicer than playing against Chop, who regularly kicks my ass. At least with another girl I have a chance in hell, lol. And he probably prefers playing against a guy occasionally, because it’s actually competition. 😛

We have to clean the attic space out today, and neither of us is thrilled. It’s a huge space, but it has some torn-down insulation on parts of the floor, so before we store in there, I wanted to clean it out.

We’ll be using masks and gloves, but if I don’t blog about the grossness later, somebody send a search party.

Have you seen Juno? If not, you should. It’s awesome. And not just because I love Allison Janey. The writing is really witty and while not completely believable, the characters are hysterical.

The Wii came today (Christmas present) and Chop and I spent the whole day staring at the box, trying to work. Amazingly it’s still unopened, as he has sports shows we “watch” starting at 5.

It feels like spring here.. is anyone else having that problem? The weather was a high of 56 degrees, the sun was shining and a freaking fly somehow got in the house. A fly. In January. The weather is messed up.

The DS? Awesome.

The Zelda Phantom Hourglass game? Totally awesome. (The Chop and I are fighting over who gets to play, lol.)

Obama’s taken Iowa! Woot! He is my only hope for getting the Republicans out of office.

The writer’s strike is pissing. me. off. Just give them what they want and bring back the good TV! I like reality TV if it’s good, but we’re now at the dredges of reality TV.. the crap that got veto’d at the beginning of the season but is now back because that is ALL THEY HAVE.

So annoying.

In other news, I am less sick, the weather here is so cold I refuse to go outside and some of my company’s websites got hacked while I was on vacation, so it’s been real fun going back to work.

How’s 2008 working out for ya’ll?

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I have a raging cold. Sadly, I will be spending the holiday bundled on the couch, drink in hand, coughing away. Cheers. 😛

We got back from the land of ice and snow last night, after many nights of drinking and outright debauchery (in addition to all sorts of family time).

In other words, we are very, very glad to be home, lol.

The day we left, I had slipped on the stairs while rushing, and the bruise that has now formed right on/above my tailbone goes all the way across my back. It’s hurt like an SOB since last Saturday, and quite sadly, it is still incredibly painful.

But I still managed to un-decorate the house and tree last night during the Pats game, and to my great satisfaction, the tree is out, the decorations are gone and the presents have been put away. Granted, there is still some laundry left, and boxes to break down, but all in all, we are heading into January all clean. 🙂

Merry Christmas from the land of ice and snow! 😛

Can I just say, I so desperately want to see the new Alvin in the Chipmunks movie I am literally bouncing.

No, I’m not kidding and yes, I am weird. Whatever.

I LOVE them. 😀
