Christmas II happened today – many emotions transpired, including my newfound desire to be a rap star:

Here are some highlights:
- Getting time with my friend Jason from New York and helping him get going for his plane.


- Finding out last night that someone else is on Twitter.

Being stalked - My mother-in-law got a bracelet. My nephew walked up to it and said, “They went to Jared’s.” (even though they hadn’t)
- My fake business letter and purchase/shipping e-mail made Jeremy Google my fake company.
- Rock ‘em Sock ‘em Robots (I miss the MacBook…Windows Movie Maker doesn’t recognize my camera’s files.)
- My wife’s enchilada casserole.
The following was found, like all other recipes, without my wife’s knowledge:3 or 4 chicken breasts (cooked) cut into pieces
into pan w/ 2 cans Cream of Chicken soup, slightly diluted (I like to do things slightly deluded)
Add 2 cans of diced green chiles, onion and garlic salt to taste (I’m assuming to add to the taste – but why else would you add something to a recipe?)
3 cups grated cheese (3/4 lb.)
12 corn tortillas (quartered and lightly fried)(between paper towels)
Oblong pan (I’m assuming put the mixture in it) – spray
Thin layer of sauce
Layer tortillas, sauce, and cheese (continue – maybe 2)(layers?)
End with cheese (like a Nicholas Sparks book)
Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes (unless previously refrigerated – then cook for 45-60 minutes) - Disney Scene It with the Shout Out Loud option enabled.
- The continuation of my favorite book series.
- Getting a phone call from Jason saying he wasn’t in New York (flight canceled) but instead was on my doorstop to show his friend Jeff Newton the Wii.
- Finding out later in the conversation that Jeff Newton has taken some photographs of some big time people. I just thought he was Jason’s friend Jeff. I would love to post his art, but I don’t want to break copyright on the big magazine covers. Go check it out. He’s a great guy who can tackle you in tennis but gets his behind kicked online in Mario Strikers (like all of us).
My own photos somehow pale. BUT they are of my family, who call me more frequently than Wayne Gretsky.
Please add more photos:

Whenever you link to a book on the Bloggh, the link doesn’t work for me. Hence, I am now adrift in the Sea of Curiosity, pondering what your favorite book series is.
Does my sidebar shop show up? I row with you in The Sea.
My all-time (yes, nerdy English teacher) favorite book used to be To Kill a Mockingbird (when read outside of the high school assignment environs)(and when taking into consideration that Rogue Squadron has its own category…like Star Wars is a movie of its category).
Last year, though, I read Dominion by Randy Alcorn and for sheer depth of issues addressed as well as enjoyable pacing, it bumped Mockingbird. I was very excited to find out that it’s a trilogy, with Deception (my new gift) coming out this year.
Being me it’s tough to put a finger on best of all time, since it rotates daily. Like if I had to recommend a book to a brand new student, Max Ride or Ranger’s Apprentice all the way. (And not just as YA books.)
