OK, the day AFTER Christmas...

So I survived my in-laws. It really wasn't nearly as brutal as I thought it would be. Very pleasant; niceties all around. The turkey dinner was awesome! They even sent me home with a plate of leftovers. My mother-in-law claims she uses tradition family recipes, but I think she used a cookbook! My wife, the lovely Mrs. Shoehead, was gonna stay a few more days, so I drove back alone last night, but suddenly decided to come home today. I picked her up from the Madera train station (really just a bare platform--not even a shelter or a soda machine!) It was good to have her back, even though I was looking forward to a couple of days of watching my favorite DVDs. Now we're gonna have to watch all of her DVD's! Oh well...
So I've got a few more days 'til the new year, then it's back on my fitness program! There's no gym where I live, so I'm gonna put together my home gym in the spare room. Wish me luck!

I do wanna highlight two very cool social networking sites I've been spending alot of time on. Instead of Myspace and Friendster, which are just a little, well-- juvenile (but fun!)-- I'm trying to spend more time in a business environment. And the two communities I really like for their ease, functionality, and friendly people are AdLandPro, and Directmatches. take a look at both of these. I love both of them, and recommend them to any web entrepreneur.

Christmas eve...

Today is Christmas eve, and it's not just an ordinary day. It's my sister's birthday, as well as my good friend Jenna's. I think for my sister, I'm going to get her this awesome cookbook. It's called the Copycat Cookbook, and it's basically a way to duplicate all of you favorite restaurant recipe's from T.G.I.Friday's, Applebee's, Chili's, and more! I know she's gonna love that!
Now, what to get for Jenna... she loves her dogs, so maybe I'll get her this book on how to keep her dog healthy, Dog Food Secrets. Or I know she's a huge Beatles fan, so maybe anything by The Beatles.
Anyway, off I go. Almost time to go to my in-laws. (I should get liquored up first!)
Merry Christmas, everybody! Happy Holidays all around!
