How are you ringing in the New Year tonight?

I'll be working until about 11:30PM, then I'll come home, get on the computer, and hope I'm paying attention when it changes over. I'm sure I'll know when it does, because my neighbors can't be quiet about anything they do.

On another note, we finally have snow! I'm so happy! LOL I've missed snow. We didn't have any at Christmas and it bugged the heck out of me. :)

Here are a couple pics for you:

What's the best present you gave this year?

A Dale Earnhardt Jr Off the Track 2007 calendar to my best friend. That and a cat spa to my cat, Spooky.  Then again, if you ask my dog, the T-Bonz & Beggin' Strips treats he got for Xmas are the best! LOL

What's your favorite holiday movie?

My favorite holiday movie is National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation or whatever that is. All I know is that I love that whole deal with the Griswalds. :)

Happy Birthday to Me

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, it is my 31st birthday today. I am officially 31 years old. Yay. It doesn't feel any different than 30 did, so hey. Big deal.

The Mercy holiday dinner was ok. I didn't care for the hashbrown casserole they had. It was a bad imitation of another catering service's hashbrown casserole. The corn was so overcooked, it was starting to turn gray. Ick.

I didn't do my Yule Ritual on Thursday night because LaShawn came over to spend the night. Since she's a Christian, I didn't want to offend her, plus I didn't feel like making an ass of myself in front of her.

I did the ritual last night, and it went all right, considering it was my first. But some things went a bit awry, like the candles not wanting to light and my besom (broom) not wanting to stand up like it was supposed to. Oh well, it was the first ritual I've ever done, and I'm sure that most Wiccans feel a bit inept when they first do a ritual. I'm sure it will get better with time.

Well, I'm off to make sure some of my other blogs get posted to before Midnight. :)

How did you find out the secret behind Santa Claus?
Submitted by Carinish.

My bicycle was stolen from our garage, Santa had brought it a couple years before. Mom called the police and when they asked for the serial number on the bike, she said she'd have to call the shop she got it from to get it. I was standing there and finally realized that Santa Claus was Mom and Dad.

How do you take your tea or coffee?
Submitted by Vasquez.

Tea: Herbal only, and I add 2-4 packets of Equal, depending on the flavor of the tea.

Coffee: Columbian, with flavored creamer and 2-4 packets of Equal, depending on the flavor of the creamer.

On another note, SPV recently released the dates the expect to release Type O Negative's newest CD, "Dead Again". I can't wait for March to get here, as that's when they expect to release the CD. It's been too long without another CD. I just hope they tour, and if they do, they come here. But that's highly unlikely. After all,it's a show I'd want to go to.

Also, WWE is bringing RAW to my town on Feb. 5th. I won't be going though. Even if I can get the night off, I can't afford tickets. Bleh.

This is my cat Spooky:

This is my dog Panda:

I simply MUST have these two. In fact, when I had to move out of my ex-roommates place, my biggest requirement was that the place had to allow me to have my babies!

Where do you do your online shopping?

I usually do my online shopping at either Ebay, Amazon.com, or Barnes and Noble's website. Of course, when working with domain names, I generally use GoDaddy.com for registration. I currently use them for hosting, but will soon be switching to a reseller account through Hosting Solutions.
