Akemashite Omedetou! (Happy New Year!)

Tuesday, January 06, 2009

Are you ready for 2009? I’m not sure I am, but I guess that doesn’t stop it from being here.

Yes, i’m in my second day back to work, and I thought that maybe i’d get to slowly eeeaaaaaasse my way into working again. I took 1.5 weeks off and that was AMAZING. Needless to say, I forgot all about work. I’m surprised i still remembered where i sat when i came back. Sadly, that luxury of warming up into work was not afforded me.

I’m already on a project that looks to be somewhat as painful as the one i was working on for 4 months of last year. My stress pimples are already quivering, ready to pop out of my face! ew. (sorry for the visual) Oh well, at least it’s helping me start off with high productivity!

How was your holiday season? I’ve noticed that since I once lived in New York, i have become much more particular about saying, “Happy Holiday” instead of “Merry Christmas” so as not to offend anyone. Then there was the odd hybrid of “Happy Christmakwanzakah!” which never really never rolled off the tongue as easily as I’d have liked. Anyway, so how was it? Mine was great. I didn’t travel anywhere farther than Loma Linda. Family was in town. I got to spend a lot time with Dennis. Lots of friends were in town. It was pretty awesome!

Well here’s wishing you a wonderful 2009! Expect to see my annual photobook posted in the next few days! (or weeks...or months… lol)

1. Yay! Glad you’re back!

2. so I grew up under the impression that “Happy Holidays” meant “I’m too lazy to say merry Christmas and a happy New Year”. It wasn’t until the last few years that I noticed that it angered people if one said Happy Holidays.

3. Are you beginning to notice those dark brown spots on your hands? These are the classic age spots that are indicators of aging skin. You can do something about them. The best ingredient for reducing the appearance of these unsightly spots is called Extrapone Nutgrass Root. This is a natural skin whitener that works by inhibiting the skin pigment melanin.
