It's been a little while. I've been doing stuff, maily work stuff, but definitely stuff. Highlights in one paragraph and in no particular order: started project #3, bought a washing machine, did four loads of laundry, watched entire season of Firefly, watched entire season two of Arrested Development (which, by the way, appears to have had Season Three cancelled - bastards), did billing, shaved my head, had people over to watch football (American variety), had lunch with Ajesh, went grocery shopping, organized my CDs, changed my linens, took out the trash.

This weekend's sporting results that matter: Liverpool 3 Portsmouth 0. New Zealand 23 England 19. Falcons 27 Buccaneers 30. So two out of three. The Falcons game was close. But disappointing, nonetheless. The biggest problem was a very unsettled first quarter in which they just gave away a penalty almost every other play. Liverpool has now won four (three Premiership, one Champions League) games in a row, without being scored upon. It's about time; just as long as theu keep it up. And as for the All Blacks, they're one game away from a Grand Slam (for those not in the know, that will be winnng all four of the Home Nations games (that is, Wales, Ireland, England, Scotland)).

I'm going back to New Zealand for Christmas. I'll arrive on the 20th, have a meeting in Masterton on the 21st, and will be heading back to the US on the 29th.

In other holiday news, Thanksgiving is this week. I've now had four invites; I guess I should make a decision on where I shall be. But irrespective of that decision, I am staying in The ATL this week. I shall be working from home Monday through Wednesday, although I am waiting on information to complete some of the things I need to do.

Family Guy was really funny tonight. Very irreverant. The Simpsons was rather lacklustre. I think I'm going to eat some ice cream. I think it's really funny the totally right wing establishment that is the Fox News Channel and the anti-establishment shows on the regular Fox channel. Of course, it's all about the all-mighty ($), but still funny.
