Merry Christmas, Everybody!

First, check out my grades for my final semester:

Pretty sweet, huh?

For Christmas dinner, our family was contributing beef Wellington. I was cutting up mushrooms when plop! the plate and all the mushrooms fell on the floor. Of course it happened at exactly 6pm, which is when all the stores close on Christmas Eve. The look my mom gave me, you should've seen--it was a look that clearly told me, "oh my god, you've ruined Christmas!" Luckily, we were able to borrow some mushrooms from my aunt and the beef was a success. Best thing about dinner.

Oh yeah, my dad's here for Christmas and New Year's, which is nice. It's sad though, because my mom leaves ahead--before New Year's, on the 28th.

It seems that my silly stab at attracting more readership has come to bite me in the ass. I don't know how to put a file up on this blog, but I'll try to figure it out. I'll try to have the tab to Falling and Laughing up as soon as I can, but I think that's the only one I'll have up for a while because I'm too lazy to tab the other stuff. Look out for it in the sidebar, if I ever figure out how to put the file up. If not, then Dex, I need your help.

Merry Christmas again.

Just This

I was listening to the radio in the car this morning and a there was a story on Ahmet Ertegun. And I thought to myself, uh-oh, he's already in the hall of fame so this probably means he's dead. The piece ended without mentioning whether he'd died or not. I was hoping maybe it was his birthday, or the anniversary of Atlantic.

I just checked the Post. Goodbye, Ahmet. Thanks.

I guess this is a twofer, for Ahmet and belatedly for Ruth.
