I’d like to say Happy New Year to everyone out there but I’m not feeling it. Not that I don’t want everyone to have a great new year, because I do. I’m just not feeling happy … in fact, I’m pretty cranky right now. I’ll just say I’m glad this year is over and that I’m glad that Obi-Wan will [...]

Happy Holidays and all that jazz. I’m somewhat cheerier (if that’s a word, which it probably isn’t) today but I’d still rather have Obi-Wan here. We talked on the phone earlier so at least I was able to chat for a bit with him. I’m visiting my parents right now so I’m glad to be able [...]
