The Blog for the Sports Gamer

Well, a busy day here in Abnerland as we had our first house showing this afternoon. This means I have to pack up Ashley and my 11 year old dog and go away for an hour or so. With the weather being decent today, I spent most of the morning at a nearby park. It’s a weird feeling. Obviously I want the house to sell but our new house won’t be ready til March or so, and I REALLY don’t want to move into temp housing if I can help it. I’m hoping for the best case scenario but I doubt I get that lucky.

Anyway, this marked the first Christmas that I did not get ONE computer or video game item of any kind. Nothing for my PC — nada.

I did score:

• Portable speakers for the iPod.
• A $50 Home Depot Gift Card
• An IOU from my parents that they’ll buy us a new Lazyboy when we finish the house.
• A Resubscription to Bucknuts
• Stuff for my soon to be new office, which will be decked out in OSU garb with: An OSU trashcan, a big OSU street sign for the wall, a sweet OSU Mirror Clock, a plush OSU wall covering, and a Mini OSU Helmet signed by Archie Griffin and Hopalong Cassady.
• The Complete Works of H.G. Wells
• A Far Side Wall Calander
• An Illustrated Encyclopedia on the history of the World Series
• Sweat Pants, AKA “Work Clothes”
• The Complete First Season of Curb Your Enthusiasm

Anyone get anything else cool for Christmas?
