Hollaback, Grrrrrrrrl...

 So here we gooooooooo...
Wow, last post was in May? WTF, brah?!? Anyhoo, time just blurs on by. I have been at Cargill for over a year now, and guess what?
Still hating it. I do make sweet money, but it's truly a chore at times. My boss can be a real tosser until he gets his sugar levels in check. He is on vacation this week, so it's been pretty calm and quiet. I just came back from one myself...

 Still hitting the gym at times. I stay in decent shape, basically because my diet is pretty strict. I had an issue with tennis elbow recently, probably from gout or whatever, but I stopped drinking fruit juice like crazy. Who knows? Errr, uhhhhh, what else? Christmas blew, as usual. New Years, and my sobriety date of 4 years, is a day away. I am working in the morning, then the wife is having a bunch of her family over. I'm sure there will be some drinking, but I've got some bud to tide me over.I will most likely be hanging with this little cutie right below, right hurr...

 She's not far from two years old, I think in either March or May. She's really starting to throw words around. and being semi able to actually communicate. She's pretty smart, I try to positively reinforce whatever is going on. Her mom, my step daughter, doesn't always hang around to be a mother. Sometimes I'm tired as fuck, but I still try to pay enough attention to her to let her know she's loved. I'm definitely her favorite person: she calls me grandpa, but I know she thinks of me as her dad. When I get home from work, she takes me to the bedroom for our nap together while Spongebob gently plays in the background. She usde to go to her dad's some, but he hasn't taken her in awhile. Guess the holidays are too hectic to be a responsible parent. I wish she was mine, I'm amazed that people who don't deserve to have them, just DO.

Look at my sweeeet rock hard chin. I look kinda Chinese eyed, though. I thought I'd have so much more to say. But now that I'm back, I will try to hollaback, grrrrl.
