who found who's hair in who's bed?

there has been so much time to do nothing lately. a tsunami, so to speak, of completely random thoughts has risen and submerged my over-populated third world mind, leaving debris, and washing many rationalities out to sea to die and decompose. hence this post.

1. seeing as how i "wished" a "happy" new year just before christmas, i find it appropriate to say finally merry christmas, given that new years eve is pretty much here. i hope everyone had a nice time with their friends and families, and recieved everything on their list and all that hot air. mine was nice. i recieved a really beautiful acoustic guitar from my wife, you know, since it's just now getting cool to play the guitar, i thought i would give it a go. our family gave us a cruise to mexico along with my brother and his wife, and my mom and dad. your probably saying, "must be nice". in responce i say,"yes it is very nice". i've never been on one and i am excited to drink alot of free drinks, and disrupt the perfect balance of the massive vessel with my not-tan and not-in-shape body. so any way, merry christmas.

2. while on the subject of holiday merry making, i'm having a hard time understanding christmas shopping, just being in the stores, and the days after, returning gifts and such. i described it to amber as "the mystery of successful human co-existence, a.k.a. why are we not extinct?" i was amazed that in the midst of the panic, we lemmings didn't frenzie up and walk off a cliff together. just a thought.

3. and speaking of tsunamis, i really heard this on the radio, "the latest prediction is that the death toll in south east asia will reach 100,000 soon, due not only to the initial impact of the waves, but from disease and polluted water and resources. in other news, liza minelli fell off her bed yesterday and hit her head, sustaining minor injuries. arriving at the hospital she told reporters that she felt some-what weary but otherwise fine."
this is a fantastic example of how handicapped the priorities of the "fair and balanced" american media are, for the most part. as funny as that is not, i thought it appropriate to mention.

4. let's see, what else. we tried to come up to big bear last night but were turned around at a point in the road that was bursting at the seams with inteligent life staring in awe at their instructions on how to install tire chains, so we went to panda express and then to victorville to come home. we awoke this morning to the same residents of los angeles filling our streets with cars stuck in snow. so i weaved and honked in the only language they understand, and proceeded to take back roads, which i will do for the next week most likely. is there anyone who can relate? nate this is where (if you get this far because it's boring by now) you describe the i'm sure lovely situation at leroys.

5. being married is cool, but taking part in the physical and organic act of marriage is even better.

enough is enough, and i think i'm there.
