Deathstroke - how are you doing?

Fine here I guess. Nothing all that exciting going on right now. Headed to SuperMegaFest on Saturday, hope to meet Stan Lee. Covering it for the website I'm writing for.

[Deathstroke]

My boss did something nice for me. I had mentioned I was going to go to Staples to get some bare bones business cards printed for when I go to the SuperMegaFest on Saturday. So when I talked to anyone that I needed to mention that I wrote for a website, I had something to hand them.

He printed me up some cards and gave them to me yesterday.

Yeah, I think you gotta do it more than once.

I do it about 3 times a week, actually.

And I still have a muffin's top.

As far as Christmas goes:

I may have mentioned that my mom is moving back to Kansas to my grandparents' place(the good side) to take care of my Dad and grandfather.

So this Christmas, for the first time in basically a decade, there will be a big family Christmas at the same place I spent every Christmas in my youth. It will be without my grandmother, but I'd like to think it is how she would like it.

And my folks are finally lightening up and inviting Squirrel to stuff, too.

To say I'm excited would be an understatement.

Sadly, though, Thanksgiving will be kinda meh. Just Squirrel and and I, though she's going to cook a heck of a meal for us.

Morning people.

Jared- I work out four to five times a week and definitely still have a muffin top but I also have good blood pressure, an amazing resting heart rate, and I haven't killed anyone. There's definite benefits.

I'm a diabetic, and when I was first diagnosed back in 2001 I was classified as "uncontrolled". I didn't take it seriously or really make any serious lifestyle changes for a long time, close to a decade as a matter of fact. Over the last couple of years though I've started exercising, portion control, and taking my medications as they have been prescribed, and I am happy to report that at my last doctor's visit I have now been classified as "pre-diabetic", all my numbers are great. I owe a lot to my lady who has been with me every step of the way.

So....what do you do when you can't go home for holidays?

I'm spending Christmas with my girlfriend and her family.

They were split into their own thread and moved to the TV/Film board.

Anyone who says that working out gives you energy is a lying liar who lies.

I work up from 10 hours sleeping feeling darn good, and now at work after working out, I'm back to feeling like crap again.

Stupid health.

Working out does give you energy, but you have to make sure you're eating right as well. Plus, there's, for lack of better terms, a hill you have to climb when you just start out where you feel like shit a lot, but eventually you feel better.

That is nice!

It IS nice.

Jealous. Green with envy! Although, the pterodactyls were my favorite.

It is appropriate to feel jealousy.

Invite friends over to celebrate together, especially those who can't get home or don't have anywhere else to go.

Or have a nice quiet holiday at home doing it however the hell you want.

Good advice. Even going to a friend's family can be fun. I know I've done that in the past when I was in the Coast Guard and couldn't make it home.

I'll just leave this here:

Sweet.

I'm spending Christmas with my girlfriend and her family.

Nice! I take it they are local?

My X-Mas plans are dull this year, just staying home. My company is hoping to get the Obama Inauguration invite print job again, so we'll be working non-stop once it comes through.

That's very impressive!

So....what do you do when you can't go home for holidays?

Let's see: last year I got up, felt absolutely shitty because I missed my family and my girlfriend, opened my presents by myself and almost ended up in the fetal position, then went to visit some friends for Christmas dinner.

At least this year I don't have a girlfriend.

I'm dreaming of a CBR Christmas.

I'll just leave this here:

Jolly! Love it.

Congratulations, DennyK! You fucked death in the face!




Good morning, CBRians!
