It's been quite some time since I last posted and a lot has happened. My house is coming along pretty well. I am mostly finished painting and now I just need to touch up some trim. I ended up getting $300 from the termite place to replace those hardwood floors they tore up; it was not a lot of money but I feel it is sufficient. I am still eating dinner in my living room, but soon I will tile in or hardwood in my dining room and start eating in there again. I'm waiting on some blinds for my office and dining room and the job will be complete. The bathroom is posing some small issues with the tiles not staying down and the time fitment, but I am mostly done with it. My bedroom is 100% as is the den (minus a big TV).

Enough about the house. Work is going well. I am loaded with stuff now that I am covering my area and another guy's area. We're trying to gear up for a busy 2009 and I am looking forward to seeing if we've prepared enough.

My birthday was Tuesday and it was good. I went with some people to work and drove down to El Dorado to hit up some Applebee's. It was good, except the waiter never could get the tickets right. It all worked out for the better, though; I got a free appetizer and a free drink. We have been playing ultimate twice a week and have anywhere from 6 to 9 people. It's been really good with a bigger group. Tuesday I am going to my church in Eldo to play some basketball in their gym. I think a few people from work are going to go as well, so that should be fun.

I'm getting an Xbox 360. I have put it off and put it off, but it's killing me now. I have been browsing for a few weeks and I am telling myself to wait for those Thanksgiving sales. I just don't know if there will be better deals then or not on 360s. But I am getting one, mark my words!

I had an old friend send me a message today and it really rattled me. I haven't talked to this person in some time, due mainly to the fact that when we last talked I left with a flood of emotion. I was filled with the memories of those last days and it rattled me to the bones. I suppose I never really healed from it all...I'm not sure I ever will.
