Day 1238 of 365 4 lyf. One last day of 2009. Steph and I didn’t really make plans ahead of time because we were way more focused on our vacation, so instead we’re heading out to dinner and then some bars. See you all next year. 365 days

Day 1236 of 365 4 lyf. So yeah, I still don’t really like the winter. It’s just way too damn cold, but there are some things that you can do that are just fun. I mean, you just can’t make snow angels down south. Do you think the trade off is worth it? 365 days

Day 1234 of 365 4 lyf. Welcome to Parasol’s. One of the nice thing about being a Steelers fan, is that no matter where you go, there’s a Steelers bar within a stones throw that you can go to and watch the game with likeminded individuals. This is Parasol’s. One of New Orleans more intelligent…

Day 1233 of 365 4 lyf. Steph and I left Mississippi today and headed back to New Orleans to spend the weekend there. I booked us in my favorite hotel, the Embassy Suites. I’ve always loved staying there. Nice huge rooms. HDTV, comfy bed, complimentary cooked to order breakfast and free happy hour. It might…

Day 1232 of 365 4 lyf. Merry Christmas from the Mavericks. We had a good time at my brothers and then Steph and I went back to my mom’s house to help her set up her new Wii that we (and my brothers) got her for Christmas. Yes this is another picture that my mom…

Day 1231 of 365 4 lyf. My mom bought my nephew a tricycle for Christmas. The problem with buying such things is they come in pieces. So while I thought Steph and I were just going over to hang out on Christmas Eve, it turns out that there was work to be done. Not a…

Day 1230 of 365 4 lyf. Sweet Home Chicago! So today was our big travel day. We got up at 4am to get to the airport and fly to New Orleans with a layover in Chicago. By the time we got to Chicago and waiting for our plane shift, both Steph and I were exhausted.…

Day 1229 of 365 4 lyf. If I were smart, I’d pack for a trip ahead of time. I’m not smart. I’m stupid, so I don’t even do laundry early. I suck. So instead I end up staying up half the night trying to get everything ready when I have a 7am flight. Ugh…. I…

Day 1228 of 365 4 lyf. Christmas part 3. Celebration with friends. The last several years, Steph and I have invited friends over to help us decorate our tree and exchange presents. We decided to do it today to extend our Christmas yet another day. Tomorrow is my last day of work this year. Woohoo!…

Day 1227 of 365 4 lyf. Christmas part 2. Actually yesterday was Christmas part 1 but I didn’t take a picture for it. Steph and I are going to visit my mom for actual Christmas so we didn’t want to carry all our gifts down there, so we opened presents from each other yesterday and…

Day 1226 of 365 4 lyf. It snowed today. Like really snowed. Like a lot. The last few winters have been (relatively) minor here in Pittsburgh. I guess that ended today. There were some things I thought I might go out and take care of today. But then I woke up and there were a…

Day 1225 of 365 4 lyf. So, I’ve known about this match for a while. Me vs. Morgan Rockafeller vs. Dash Bennet vs. Dan Sandwich in an anything goes streetfight for BDW. What I didn’t know is that instead of Dan, I’d be facing Santa Claus. And of course Jameel was there to snap shots…
