Hey all!
Yes, it's my birthday. Thanks to all those who sent me good wishes today. I got some really nice things. My wife gave me the orginal Capitol Steps: Live at the Shoreham album, with all the great classics, like Hark! When Gerald Ford Was King, and Immense Expense is Mainly In Defense. Also got some new shirts, and new pair of pants, sorely needed for work. My 'rents got me a new trench coat, which makes me happy. My sister gave me a singing Snoopy that sings Snoopy vs. the Red Baron. My wife is ready to kill my sister (in a good way...she's more or less just plotting revenge by threatening to give her future children really noisy toys).
The theater has been BE-SERK. We did over 40g's in business over the Thanksgiving weekend. We had our best day of the year on Black Friday, when we did 1957 people, blowing away our previous high of 1811, set back in June. We've had some personel issues too, but I think those are about to resolve themselves.
Today, my first day off since before the Holiday, I had to get myself out of bed at 7:30 to get my car inspected at 8. Pain in the neck, but at least it passed, so that's at least some consolation. Put up Chirstmas lights on the outside of the house. Annoyed Sara when she discovered that I'd crawled out on the porch roof to hang lights while at home by myself.
Put up our tree and did some general decorating today. Our tree is gorgous. Pictures to come as soon as I get new batteries for the digital camera.
My application for the Norwich University MPA program goes out in the mail tomorrow, so wish me luck.
Our house is going to resemble a Holiday Inn this month, with several houseguests in the coming weeks. "Welcome to Bernie and Sara's Bed and Breakfast. Complimentary wake up call?"
Later folks!
