Been a Long time

I know , I know. I gotta get to gettin' to be one of those "uber" hipsters who posts constantly on his/her blog about their comings and goings. I WISH I had uber hip things to tell you about! Sadly, both Vick and I have been working working and working. Things at the old Chocolate Confectionary place have had their ups and downs

Ups is that I was just (after 1 year of contracting) offered a full time employee gig there. Great, benefits and the like. Downs, is that the work has really, really sucked there as of late. I work for someone new, and they are just piling the work on me. So much in fact, that I have not been able to actually get into the holiday feel or vibe of the upcoming New Years Eve festivities.

Some cool stuff of late: I did get groovy Chanukah gifts: including an Oasis Day Spa package (I gave Vicki one too!), a UFC hoodie (so I can look like Evan Tanner! Howsabout that for a reference NO ONE will get!?), a UFC octagon shaped mouse pad!, Some upscale shaving products, and the piece de resistance, a pair of groovy comfy slippers, and PJ's. Thanks Vick, I hope you enjoyed the pressies I gave u !!

We also saw "King Kong" w/ the in laws in PA. Cried my eyes out. I cried in 1977 at the horrible remake then... and I bawled at age 35 last weekend at this new version. True enough, it coulda been a bit shorter... but that Animatronic Ape gave an incredible performance. He would be welcome to live in our backyard in Jersey City, anytime! Though I hope he would not want to eat Fred and Lulu!

King Kong, if you read this blog (!) , you can feel free to come and eat Zelda the cat ANYTIME!!! LOLOL
