Well, it's been an interesting day today--we got sent home early from work today. At like, 2:30 in the afternoon. Not (as would normally be the case in a "going-home-early" scenario) because we ran out of work, but because some idiot saw fit to fax us a bomb threat. It came in to the fax machine just by my desk and was picked up by one of my co-workers. Because of the wording of the note, it appeared to have been sent from within the building, but I'll let the police sort that out. In any case, there we were, all outstanding in our field--err, out standing in the parking lot, that is--when the supervisor tells us that it's going to be at least an hour before they would be done searching the place, so we might as well go on home. That kinda sucked because I was actually having a decent day and I'll miss the pay from those last 2 hours. But I got home and caught up on all my neglected housecleaning. (Nah, who am I kidding?! I came home and took a nap!)

Anyway, maybe some of it will get done tonight. That is, if I don't get too involved watching Joe Millionaire. Yeah, I think I'm gonna tune in, at least for the first episode. There's just something hightly amusing about a bunch of little gold-digging pretty girls getting duped. (That's if the premise Fox is promoting on TV is accurate.) It should be interesting to find out what all the hype is about, anyway.

Check out the Ziggy cartoon that was in yesterday's comics. It pretty well sums up my prayer to God for this year. (OK, not really--well, maybe.) It is, I guess, the best way to look at all the stuff that went down this past year for me--that God knew I could handle it, even if I didn't. And I really do want to continue to grow in what I can handle--I just really don't want to have to put it to the test quite so much this year. In any case, the rambling is starting, so I'll just quit while I'm ahead.
