12 of 12 - The "Tsk" Edition

I was totally going to bail on 12 of 12 this month, but then I was called out by Venus from It's Not Us It's You. She even tsk'd me!

This post is brought to you by the word AWESOME!

I go to the gym really freakin' early to get it out of the way.

I'm embarrassed how many times I've listened to this trashy song. ("Boys tryin' to touch my junk, junk.")

RIP Brad Graham

When I first dipped my toe into the world of blogging in 2001, Brad Graham's blog, The Daily Brad, was one of the first I read regularly. Full of dry wit and snark, I'd comb through his archives trying not to laugh out loud too much since I was reading it at work.

Sadly, Brad passed away recently at the age of 41. Very sad news indeed.

Brad blogged less and less, but his humor lived on via Twitter.

RIP Brad

Rest in Peace, Mr. Graham. Thanks for all the LOLs.

Happy

I've started and trashed this post about 2009 a bunch of times. I think it says more about my desire to blog than about the post itself. Blame Facebook and Twitter.

So here's what I'll say. 2009 wasn't so bad. By all accounts, it should have been. My cat died. My body broke and now I have to deal with that for the rest of my life.

And yet as the year was closing out, all I could think about is how happy I've been lately. I started a job at the beginning of the year and hey guess what... I'm still there. I visited Gayle in Chicago and totally fell in love with that city. I made some new friends near and far. I learned to appreciate the ones I have even more.

Cobban said today that happiness is a choice. He is so right about that. Even in times of grief and great pain, light and joy can be found.

So here's to 2010, now matter how you want to say it.

Cheers.

Hat

Ugly Christmas Sweaters

Today was Ugly Christmas Sweater day at work. Unfortunately, we found this out on Monday and guess what... all the ugly Christmas sweaters have all been snatched up.

So I improvised with a hat.

Pirate Santa

Srsly... why does this Santa Hat have black trim instead of white? The tag said "Adult Santa Cap." I'm guessing the emphasis is on adult.

I feel the hat Aretha Franklin wore at the inauguration and this fetching cap bookend the year quite nicely.

Happy Holidays y'all!
