So this morning Debbie and I finally cleaned up all the leaves that fell from the one big tree, that is not even ours.
8 1/2 bags of leaves in 3 hours.  I miss the days when you can just rake the stuff in to the street and the town would come clean it up.  This bagging it and leaving it for them is bull.

So my Jets again today.  Well there goes our 3-0 start.  I knew it was too good to be true.

Back to work tomorrow for a shortened holiday week.  Then a nice 4 day weekend.  Sweet.

Long week. Glad it is the weekend. Birthday lunch for Debbie tommorrow. Now it is bedtime.

So we are one day closer to Debbie's Birthday.  November 21st for those who do not know.

Over the last several years I have made, what I consider, witty yet tasteful cards for her, not only for her birthday, but for other events as well.  Although, I must admit the quality and in some cases the humor, has declined, I believe the effort makes it worthwhile, so even if I have to resort to stealing others ideas, then so be it.

Tomorrow we will be joining other Gregov's at my parents for an early birthday celebration.  OK so maybe not a celebration, more like a shindig, or perhaps a hoe-down.  Either way I am sure fun will be had by some, if not all.

Thanksgiving, or as I like to call it, Slapsgiving....thank you endless hours of watching TV for that one.....will be at my parents house this year.  Turkey, chicken and maybe even a little fish.....yummy, oh right and family and friends will be there too.

Monday night we put up our Christmas tree.  It is not what you think.  Debbie's mom dropped off her fake tree that she has been using for quite a few years, so instead of leaving the box in the living room, we put up the tree.  It was rather easy.  Three parts that clicked together and a bunch plugs for the lights, since it is pre-lit.  I love the smell of a fake Christmas.

Well, that is all the updates I have for now.  I am hoping my posts get more entertaining as the days and months go on.  I do after all pride myself on my humor, dry as it may be.

Congratulations to Leo John and Jessica Schaeffer on the birth of their first child, Charlotte.
Also, Happy Birthday to Leo John's sister Dawn, who is also now an aunt.  That must have been a nice present.

So far today is turning out much better than yesterday.  Of course, if one listens to the weather forecasters, then we are about to experience the end of days.  Yes, we all know heavy rain is bad, but do they really need to put a weatherperson right on the coastline with eight foot waves crashing down all around them?  I think not.  I can just see the food stores, with hordes of mindless sheep buying "supplies" for the disaster that will never come. 

Tonight may dad also returns from his ten day trip to Croatia.  Perhaps we will get more updates on the progress of the house.  For those who do not know, he is doing almost a complete renovation of our house.  Modernizing it, adding a few more rooms, and making it generally bigger and better. Preparing it for the day his offspring and our offspring can all be there at the same time.  One big, happy Croatian, Italian, German, Irish, and whatever else I left out, family. 

This weekend is also the baptism of the newest Gregov (since ours is not yet born), my nephew Matthew.  If I remember to bring my camera or that my cell phone actually takes pictures I will post some here.

So today started out rather good, until I got to work.  Then the forces of evil descended upon me like flies on shit.  Let me start by saying certain people should NEVER be allowed alone with a computer. 

Yes, some fucking douche in my company decided to download a rather nasty virus onto their PC.  This wonderful virus will not allow you to open any of your programs unless you purchase the companies anti-virus software, and even then it probably makes you purchase more every few months.  It also turned every file on the PC into a read-only file.  JOY!  Now, not only can you not open any programs, but they are all inaccessible as well. 

The only solution, waste the entire day and valuable time, re-formatting the entire system.  Good thing windows takes hours to install, so at least we were able to get some work done in between mouse clicks. 

At least I know when I go home I will not have to deal with these idiotic people.  Only a loving wife, a slightly retarded cat and lots of mind-numbing TV shows.

Happy Anniversary

Happy Anniversary to Stacey and Jeff Stigliano.  Hope you have many, many, many more.  That is if your kids don't gang up and kill you first.  Like I am sure our kid will at some point....in fact I am counting on it, since I will be teaching him everything he would need to know to do it.  Anyhow, this is about you, not me and Debbie.  So again, Happy Anniversary and enjoy your day.

First let me say thank you to all the veterans out there.  Keep doing a great job.

It
has been a very long time since I have posted anything on this blog. 
That could be because I have been using Facebook and really found no
reason to post here anymore.  Of course that has now changed now, that
I have enabled mobile Blogging.  I can now post directly from my phone
and hopefully link that to Facebook as well.  That is all for now.  If
anything new happens today I will be sure to let everyone know.

As the end of the work day approaches I look out the window in my
office.  Yes, I have a window, that I share with someone else, who sits
next to me, in a small cramped office, but that's not the point.  The
point is....oh crap, now I forgot my point.  Damn it!  Any way, for
those who have yet to read part one of my online novella, you can find
it here on this blog.  Under the heading Untitled, since I never
actually thought up a name for it yet.  Just wanted to self promote. 
Later.
