Unfurnished Brooklyn

A weak swing

But a swing nonetheless.

I won't go so far as to call them resolutions but I will be making some changes. The least of which is giving up coffee. Why? Just because. I hate missing a day and being overcome by withdrawal headaches. I don't want anything to have that much control over me. Green tea is an adequate substitute. For now.

I need a new job. Not need as in about-to-get-fired but need as in this job is doing nothing for me. But that's several months down the line; I just found out that I'm getting a (tiny) raise and I need to research the where and what and whys of a new career. Which may involve going back to school.

The Kid? Cheburashka? She's growing like you wouldn't believe. Great kid when she isn't working a nerve. About to graduate from elementary school and deciding on who's going to be her date for prom. I'm practicing my roundhouse kicks (making sure they're the perfect height to take out a wayward 10 year old boy).

One thing I want to get back to is reconnecting with my Internet peeps. So I plan to start commenting on blogs more often. Letting you all know so you don't wonder "Iris who?"

Watch This Space

I will come out swinging in 2010. I promise.

Happy, healthy New Year, everyone.

Enh.

see more Lolcats and funny pictures

I'll catch up. Eventually.

I'm slowly coming out of my summer exile. I've been Doing Stuff- but I never bring a camera. And if I had pictures, I'd be more likely to update the blog. In the meantime, I've been keeping up on Twitter and Facebook.

I've even been knitting. So I really need to step up and start posting.

I've got something to say!!

 

I've been doing Jerri Blank impressions at work, which confuses my co-workers. They've never seen the show, so they don't get it. Doesn't stop me.

Anyway, a computer kerflooey is keeping me from doing anything online at home. You don't realize how dependent you are on computers until suddenly you don't have one. So I'm reduced to sneaking in posts and blog-reading during work time. Heh.

Just popping in to say I'm still around, probably checking you out on Facebook or Twitter, though I may not be able to reply.
