Random thoughts that are pointless and too dumb to say anywhere else thread: 2010

If there was such a thing as a hall of fame for teenage employees we'd have a sure fire first ballot one on our hands. Now she's 18 and just got a full time job. I'm so happy for her yet so disappointed I have to not only train someone again but chances are they won't come close to as good and trustworthy as she is.

We are listening to WIBA radio's rebroadcast of the 1994 Rose Bowl game and I am surprised at how many of the players' names I recognize.

Had a great time yesterday, between a family Christmas get-together and the huge Packers win. Today I feel like I got run over by a truck due to the festivities. Couple that with not sleeping well and having to get up early to get the house ready for some window installers (yes, we found someone to install windows this time of year), and it's going to be a somewhat long day.

MLB Network is airing a countdown of the 50 best announcer calls of 2010. #44 was Jim Powell calling Hinske's HR in the playoffs. I had forgotten how nice his voice was, really brought back some memories.

Two hours ago I was going to be done by 8pm on New years eve. Now I have an hour stand-up gig at 8 that I haven't done in about 20 years and a 1/2 hour sketch as a witch doctor teaching people how to turn left over Christmas cookies into voodoo dolls after that. Haven't done that in about 10 years. Guess tonight should be dedicated to reading old notes.

I've been cleaning out my closet and dumping a bunch of old stuff to make room for other stuff.

 

 

It's been kind of fun re-reading these journals I was instructed to keep back in high school about my life back then. Imagine that, my teachers in high school were right--I WOULD appreciate looking at them in 20 years.
