Posted December 16, 2006

I woke up ready to go at about 9:15 this morning. I played around a little more with the Zune and then went and got Sarah out of bed.

I had scheduled an electrician to come and look at some improvements I hope to do to the basement at 10. It was a referral from Brian and a darn good one, nice guy, very personable, exactly what I was looking for. I think I am going to have him do the work in early January.

Soon after Sarah and I left for Greenwood, made a stop at Gordon’s Food and I stopped at Best Buy to look at car adapters for the Zune. Then I headed to the gym for a massive workout on the bike and Sarah went to Meijers. We got home, had some lunch, and then I did some miscellaneous things, listed some stuff on an ebay auction, cleaned off some of my game marquees I got in my trip in September. Sarah spent most of the day working on making Carmel Apples as gifts for our close friends. She first made them with those huge colored coated hersey’s kisses, and figured out the size made them look silly so that first one she scraped clean and started over. But on a plate with some wrapping they looked pretty cool.

I had about an hour of freelance stuff to do, and then I took a break for some games. We left for our young adults Christmas party that started at 5:00 pm. We had to choose between this one and going to a friend’s annual part close to Cincinnati. The party was fun, it got more active with more people and after we did the gift exchange. I made out great again this year, I got “Drinko” which is like Plinko from The Price is Right, but with little shot glasses. Thanks to the other Jeff for getting my back, stealing my girly scented cinnabun candles and letting me steal the Drinko back at the last moment.

We ended the party with some catchphrase, but I had a good time, but I know I was loud, they had some good wine there including some from Buck Creek and Brown County so I did my share of partaketh en zi spiritos.

From the party we headed to Johnson’s and hung out with the girls, fresh home from college the day prior. I worked on their computer some and Sarah and Pam visited in the living room, and we ended the night with a quick game of Peach Snoppes and Tequila shot Drinko. Good times, and this night ended the same way, right to bed.
