Where Vernon J BREAKS his news
Tomorrow in the offices the year on the stamps will be altered;
Tomorrow new diaries consulted, new calendars stand;
With such small adjustments life will again move forward
Implicating us all; and the voice of the living be heard:
“It is to us that you should turn your straying attention;
Us who need you, and are affected by your fortune;
Us you should love and to whom you should give your word.”
Philip Larkin
Philip Larkin (1922–1986), British poet. “New Year Poem.”

Share the ‘whatever you have’
Today is Sunday 12/30/V3.3 & we start a brand new time frame of 4 days.
So after I wrote a portion of this I went to No Frills, I walk past the bakery & smelled cinnamon rolls. They had just pulled them out of the oven. I got two of them, now that’s a good family friendly way to start the day.
Saw Sam there too.
I’m now making lasagna for dinner, it shall be yummy. I will have some salad & some garlic bread to go with it. Its okay to be jealous, cause I’m sure you won’t be getting any of this that I’m making.
The word of the day is anthropogenic is caused or produced by humans.
So there is a live webcast of University of Nebraska Hockey. Let’s go MAVS! Yesterday was a solid day for the basketball team according to II news outlet. NO apparently the sports director & announcer paid no attention to the game. WE sucked it up good at Ralston Arena.
What are you doing today?
I watched Lincoln, and I preferred Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter better.
IF you follow me on twitter you see the hashtag #CYCM. It is from this song we sang at church yesterday.
What else should I share with you today?
Well have a great day!!!

So yesterday I finished reading Jane Carver of Waar, it was just CCCXV pages so an easy read. I’ll get another book to start reading today.

Looking forward to see Omaha’s Team play at Ralston Arena tomorrow. The Bullpen will be making its annual appearance, 1st at the Ralston Arena. RPD & Security are on notice. LET’S GO MAVS! What’s a Coyote anyways? <— That makes no sense, cause the Coyote is an actually animal, but a Maverick will kick the crap out of it in a brawl.
Well this will be it for now.
Please behave yourselves tonight, and tomorrow. Sunday you can do what you want.
