Beware... I live.

Windows 98 rocks. I just want to get that out of the way right now. I blog forth to you from my aunt & uncle's rockin' computer sportin' a fresh coat of Windows 98. Awwwwwwww yeah.

Anyway, yes, I made it to the remote corner of Minnesota. Yes, it is cold. No, it is not THAT cold. It is absolutely beautiful and once I can get into town to get my laptop in proper internets working order, I will show some beautiful pictures of stuff a Florida boy is simply not used to. Like snow. Lots and lots and lots of snow, most of it untouched, which is rather cool looking. What gets me is the sparkle it has. It's like a field covered in glitter, that shines just a little differently depending on the angle you view it from. Very cool (no lame pun intended.)

To cover some things Matty and Mr. Frustrated mentioned in the comments for my last post, my beanie is black, not blue. We do not wear Nikes, we wear Coleman snow boots, since wearing anything else makes you want to cut your feet off by the end of the day. There is no Kool-Aid here. None. It's too cold for Kool-Aid. Sorry. I have only received one ticking present, but it's still early. Not that you guys mentioned it, but I want to: I love my PSP. When trapped inside because it takes 40 minutes to get dressed to go outside, it's pretty much all I have left that resembles my Florida life. Kinda sad, really. And since Holly will ask sooner or later, no drunk driving relatives. Yet. As I said before, it's still early. My iPod still rocks. But you knew that already. And yes Matt, milk was indeed a bad choice.

In other news: A long-time buddy of mine got engaged right before I left. Congrats to him and his betrothed (love that word, so much better sounding than fiance (I do not know how to make the accent on the e in Windows 98, sorry.)) You know what other word I love? VEGAS. I am saving up already. I won $33 in 20 minutes at the Mille Lacs casino last night, so I think I'm ready to step it up to Vegas level proportions. And I think we all know where we'd like to be in, oh, say, October or so. Damn right. Congrats. Now update your blog, dude.

Back to our regularly scheduled program: Cell phone still gets no signal whatsoever. I was going to text message some people on Christmas, but that may not even be a possibility. So let this serve as your Christmas greeting, oh friends of mine. Unless I get more access to the internets before then.

Merry Christmas, everyone! Even Jewish and Muslim and Atheist people, since you'll still get a day off of work. Hopefully. If not, re-evaluate your career choice. Seriously.
