Well, I am finally feeling better. God damn, this cold wiped me out. It has been six days fighting this thing and I can now tell it is almost kicked. Thank you to everyone who sent me their best wishes. Good news, I can finally start blogging again as well. Or I suppose you could take that as bad news, depending on who you are. i am just glad to be feeling almost normal!

I am sick. It is winter now in the state of Minnesota, which is where I reside, which also means it is cold season. I am not one to usually get sick, but here I am with a killer cold. I just got off work, am sick, and life just seems to suck. My plans for tonite, pop some more cold medicine, take a long, hot bath, and hit the pillow early. To anyone else not feeling well, you're not alone. We're all in this together, so hopefully, maybe, this will cheer you up!

But for real, I recently had a co-worker of mine go to China, to visit family, and she brought back some of the best candy I have ever eaten. To explain the horrible comment before. When thinking of China, candy never onced crossed my mind. When thinking of Germany, I think of chocolate, along with the likes of beer, but I didn't connect candy with China. I have also heard that the Mexican br...

The sun is a' shinin'! What a beautiful day. Nothing makes me happier than a crisp, cold day, when the sun is shining so much it blinds you as you make your way down the freeway. Well, I'm gone. Getting out to enjoy the day! If you feel like it, let me know what makes you happy as can be.

I slept over at my sisters apartment last night. This morning, I was awoke by the sound of her buzzer. I get up and press the talk and politely ask, "Who is it." All that I can hear is loud mumbling coming through the speaker so I shrug it off. About thirty seconds go by and it buzzes again. I press talk and ask again, "Who is it." Same result.

For the sake of the sake. The latter pronounced sockee. Sake is a Japanese drink, for those of you who don't know already, rice wine to be more exact. I had my first encounter last weekend and pondering the night today, I have realized, this is my new favorite drink. Not sake alone, but with a mixture of beer in which I will get into later. Sake is strange. If I had to describe its taste to you, the best way to do it is to say it taste like dirty socks. When I first heard this, I imagined mys...
