It may sounds weird to start talking about the Holiday Spirit so soon but it weird to me to actually have it this year. I think that this is sue to the fact that I am truly happy this year. Aside from my current finaincial situation, everything in my life is great! I have a girl that I love madly and who loves me back, I’m employed, have a roof over my head, a great family, and new fishies to play with. I think this is going to be one of the best Holiday Seasons in a long time! Even Jess is in the Holiday mood. Check it out!!

Speaking of my fish, I never thought that owning fish again would be so great. Last time I had fish it was such a struggle to keep the tanks clean and them alive. But wish prior knowledge under my belt, this take has been almost no work at all thanks to a lot of good advice from a lot of people who are smarter then me. In fact, it’s really funny how much my focus has changed. It used to be I hated working in the same plaza as Best Buy since I was always tempted to go over there and by some DVDs or a nice little tech gadget. But now, I really hate working in the same plaza as PetSmart because I always want to go over there and buy a new fish or something for my tank. Over the weekend Jess and I went and got a snail for the tank (pic in the moblog) and our first live plant. Now that I have them, I want more snails and a lot more live plants. They really rock! Last night as I was talking to Jess on the phone, I looked over at my tanks and for the first time ever all of my fish were out and swimming around. For some reason, it really made me feel good to have them all out enjoying the tank. It’s a really weird and cool feeling at the same time.
On another note, we’re about 72 hours away from Turkey Day! As most people know, I love Thanksgiving just for the simple fact that it has most of some of my favorite food all lumped into one big meal. And this year, I get to have 2 meals! I get to have one meal at 1pm with my family here, and then another dinner at 5pm with my new family in Jersey. I was supposed to have a 3rd dinner on Sunday with Jess’s dad, but unfortunately work is a bunch of assholes and wouldn’t give me the day off. Major suckage there.
Speaking of work, that’s where I must start getting ready to go now. I have but one 9 hour shift left and then I have off until 2pm on Friday….yes…BLACK FRIDAY!! Although closing in my store is really nice. We’re pretty much dead by about 5pm and then you just clean up the aftermath the rest of the night. It’ll be good.
