If this is how vacation is, I'd rather be at work

I've been sick since December 13th. Today is the 30th.  For you math-challenged folks, that's 18 days.

I finally couldn't take it anymore and went to my doctor this morning. As I suspected, I have a sinus and ear infection and I get to take antibiotics for the next 10 days. It'll take two or three days for the antibiotics to kick in so by the time I'm feeling better, it'll be time for me to go back to work on January 5th. Yay!

This has been the worst vacation in the history of vacations.

An epic picture post

Despite both Josh and I suffering through nasty colds and a migraine (me), our Christmas was relaxing and stress free this year compared to previous years. I attribute it all to the fact that we didn't travel this year as we did in years past. Traveling over the holidays is a royal pain in the ass - it's expensive, the weather usually is horrible, people are crabby and nothing ever turns out the way people expect it to. For those reasons, I highly recommend staying at home and doing what we've been doing - sitting on our butts, eating naughty food and watching reruns of Star Trek. You just can't go wrong!

Santa was good to us this year. He brought teapots and tea, sports equipment and booze, purses, jewelry and tools.




We also got a yummy plate of Christmas cookies from Mr. & Mrs. Dorf.


Josh and I both noted how the gingerbread man had a eerily familiar stature. Ginger Dorf?


Ginger Dorf has a tasty head!


Since I've been sick for pretty close to two weeks, I haven't done an ounce of running. I've been looking at my new shoes longingly, though. I am gearing up to participate in a New Year's Eve Fun Run with a few people. It should be a really good time and a great opportunity to burn some calories and ring in 2009 with some guilt-free boozing!

Happy New Year, everybody!

Now this is annoying

Michigan city bans being annoying in public

Ticking someone off could get you a ticket in one Michigan city. The Brighton City Council on Thursday approved an ordinance allowing police in the Livingston County community to ticket and fine anyone who is annoying in public "by word of mouth, sign or motions."

The Livingston County Daily Press & Argus of Howell reports the measure is modeled on a similar ordinance in the Detroit suburb of Royal Oak.

A city attorney says there could be situations where the measure would violate freedom of speech, but that those cases will be reviewed by the city.
