Thanksgiving is just around the corner and the chaos of Christmas follows shortly after. I’m already starting to feel it, but it does seem more subdued than in years past. I have no clue what to get anyone this year as we all seem to have everything we need, which is a good thing I guess. The new Star Trek trailer impressed me greatly. I keep hearing people saying it’s not Trek. Maybe that is a good thing. Trek had dried up to the point where no one cared. This still looks like Trek, except for once with a budget and I look forward to seeing the end product. If the story is as smooth as the special effects look, then we should have a revitalized franchise come May. 

A Spock wannabe and a Doomed Red Shirt. enjoy. 

I will pick up dvds at library. I will take care of finances at bank. I will play gears of war 2. I will watch Pushing Daisies. I will paint while Jess watches Ghost Hunters. I will clean. I will be clean. I will watch Mondays Terminator on Hulu. I will sleep in later than 7am. I will make something yummy for dinner. I will contemplate the meaning of Optimus Prime presence in the world we live in. I will remember that I really don’t have to do any of this, so stop over-thinking it all!

Things are about to start getting really hectic at work so I’m writing to let everyone know that Lucky Creature Attacks is done except for the covers (which are awesome, by the way) and the putting together. If there not done by Thanksgiving, then that will be what I use my Holiday for. Awesome!

Can I just say that last night was one of the few times in my life, I was really, really proud to be an American. It really hits you when you think about the fact that we are less than 150 years out of the Civil War and only 40 years removed from the civil rights movement and now we have Barack Obama- President Elect. Now is not the time to let up though. There is still so much work to be done, and this country is nowhere near perfect. But for that brief moment last night, it sure felt nice.  

Gears 1 was probably the reason I ended up getting the 360. And really, it has been the most reliable game for me to have fun continuing to play with the exception Worms on the arcade for the system. This one looks bigger, and badder, and I can’t wait to try it out when I bring it home Friday night. 

This is Jessica and my pumpkin. Man has a serious mustache and stars in his eyes.  

 These two birds now up in my etsy store. Don’t they look silly? I am working on LCA #3 tommorow. Hope to have it done in the next week or too. 

The wind is howling. It beats my pants legs as it falls over, around me.
The sky turns grey without hope for another sunny day,
the winter works it’s northern magic,
I dial for an outside line, and there rests nothing but dead leaves.
We are mighty!
We who have discovered four walls and fire.
Let not a man discover, that we walked with fear.

 Two new creatures available now in my Etsy store One is a very happy Starman. The other a Nurse in the age of Lightning. Enjoy.
