Happy (Belated) Thanksgiving

Hello!

Another blogging holiday. I’ve missed this outlet for the past few days, but have enjoyed myself relaxing and eating plenty.

Monica and I went to her folk’s place for the holidays and had a great weekend. I have to give a shout out to them and the delicious Thanksgiving Day meal.

I made a big mistake though when we left because I forgot my laptop! That required me to take a very early trip this morning to the Northern border of Illinois. I met Monica’s dad and got my laptop back. The bad news was the transportation-related nightmare for one of the busiest days of travel – snow. Chicago was expecting approximately 4 to 5 inches of snow with northern Wisconsin getting about an inch. This was a reversal from a few days ago where the opposite was supposed to happen. In the end, I think the original guess was correct because Wisconsin got snow and Chicago got a bunch of sleet and wind.

Today, I had an awful grocery shopping trip. I’ll exclude the name of the store though. I enjoy the experience of grocery shopping (besides paying). The store I was at is in the middle of remodeling, so the atmosphere was that of a store in war-torn Eastern Europe, rather than Chicago. I made it out less $150, but with enough supplies for a while.

    Glad you had a great Thanksgiving! Are you going to make it to the cities for Christmas? I’ll be around after the 26th of December; we should have an AOEII/Starcraft LAN party (with working sound this time) and Diablo III announcement party!

    Did you get to see any people of the street fighting next to the bottle and can recycling machine? Every time you purchase a bottled beverage here, it comes with a .50-1kr tax, which you get back if you take it to one of said machines. There are hordes of homeless/pensioners who roam the streets picking these out of garbage cans for collection and reusing the money (presumably for more beverages.. at least.. that’s usually the cause that mine collected at home go towards). Now that the economy is taking a dip, you get to see some good action over scraps concerning the equivalent of less than a dollar!
