Wow, yesterday I read that Lemmy passed away and today I read that Brad (John Bradbury) from The Specials has passed away as well.
I'm sad.

I know it's been a while since I posted anything, but I thought you guys deserved a break.
Thanksgiving was nice, I spent it at my friends' house in Pasadena. Since my parents moved away, I don't usually do anything. This year I decided to make the most of it and spend time with friends. I had a good time.
I went to a 9am showing of Star Wars: The Force Awakens on Saturday the 19th. I can't wait to see it again. I got the same feeling seeing it that I did when I saw the first one when I was a kid, way back in 1977. I thought it was a little too short, with certain things needing some explaining, but it was excellent nonetheless. Perhaps the questions I have are going to be answered in the next installment?
Christmas was fun as well. As usual, I went to visit my parents. For the first time in a few years we had snow, which was neat (and super-cold). It was nice spending time with the folks. Thank goodness we dodged going to dinner at one of their friends houses. My mom thinks they may have been trying to set me up with their broker. That's not going to happen. 1) I'm not interested in living up there. 2) I've been in the business for too long and brokers are bad news. 3) Never date the friend of someone, if it doesn't work out (and let's face it, my relationships never do), I'm the one that's going to look like the asshole (rightly so) and it will ruin my mom's friendship with the matchmaker. and 4) I think I'm destined for a single and solitary life with my cat (how pathetic!).
My parents' two kittens are insane, cute and, in the case of Walter, a little on the stupid side. But they are both adorable. Since they are still "kind of" kittens (small and play all the time, but growing bigger), it was weird coming home to my handsome cat. He seemed like a gigantic fat-ass (like me!). It looks like he ate all the extra food I left out for him. I thought cats only ate when they were hungry? I guess he comfort ate! He's been yelling at me since I got home Saturday night, the jerk.
I'm glad the holidays are nearly over, I'm exhausted, but also excited for the new year to start. I'm ready for (hopefully) some changes. I've been doing a lot of thinking the last few months, especially while I was visiting my parents and I really need to make a change. I'm keeping my fingers-crossed that something will happen in the new year. So, if you have any good thoughts you want to send my way, I'd be grateful!
I'm not sure I'll have time to post anything between now and the new year, so if I don't, I hope everyone has a peaceful, prosperous, loving and wonderful 2016.
