The Almost Thanksgiving post

Hola,

Happy Early Bird day. Just figured I would do this now while at work versus Thursday when I will be at work. Hope all eat much, sleep lots and generally have a decent week. And also lets hope the Cowboys lose on Thursday............

Other random things.....my Mom's birthday is Friday (I will not state her age...but she was born in 1936), my evil cold is almost gone that I seemed to have gotten while attending my cousin's wedding in Florida, and if anyone has any suggestions...I am looking for amusing ideas for an Xmas gift for my niece (first grade age I think) that is suitably loud and obnoxious (at least to drive her mom and grandparents batty (or would that be battier) while she uses it indoors).

Upcoming events....I have 2 nights "free" lodging in Atlantic City which expires at the end of next month....I wonder how much that "free" lodging will cost me to use in terms of gambling losses if I go. (but there is a good Sushi restaurant on the pier there).

Catch you after bird day.

100th Post

Hola all,

I have now managed to bore you all with 100 posts of my ramblings........

Upcoming fun, going to the greater Orlando FL region for my cousin Walter's wedding this weekend. Should be amusing and it has been years since I have seen any of the Floridians in the flesh, hopefully the travel is not too painful.

I survived the 5 mile or so hike with hills on Nov. 1 (which is impressive since I was out until around 1AM the night before being amused by various halloween outfits at the bars I visited). Joints were sore afterwards...but after a good night of sleep...I was as pain free as I get on Sunday. So maybe more walking/hiking is in the future.
