Happy New Year!

 

Merry Christmas

 

The Big Unwrap!

Fröliche Weinachten!

Today all of the Savants down in Savantville will participate in the big unwrap, and oh the noise, the noise, the noise Noise NOISE!

I will be packing all of my gifts into the green machine then placing my Savantlets into the back seat and away we will fly to Brother Savant's house, for brunch at 10:00 and then the paper will start flying! (It is a old German Tradition to open gifts on Christmas Eve. I have been doing it as long as I can remember. Then on Christmas Day we can concentrate on the reason for the celebration, and not thinking bout running home to open gifts, durring the sermon.)

So to all of my Friends an Relations, Merry Christmas, and a Happy New Year!

Home With The Bug! - Uploading Photos

Let it never be said that my children do not share. My daughter lovingly shared the flu with me yesterday. So today, I am home from work, sporting Depends. Yeah, stop laughing, I got over it when I realized it was better than shitting the bed. (I sleep like a rock.)

Anyway, given that I am at home I decided to upload some of the photos I took yesterday on my Photo Blog . 

Christmas Pagent

Yet another Christmas Pagent under my Incurable Dad belt. As far as Pagents go, this one was pretty good. The music was well done, and as far as I can tell everyone remembered their lines.

BTW, my kids are the ones wearing blue shirts. 

Week In Review "A Special Thanks!"

Ok, let us start with Thursday, for the hell of it. It is 5:32pm and I am standing with my coat on about to leave my place of employment on the 23rd floor in down town Kansas City, MO. My cell phone rings.

Me: This is Incurable Savant

Incurable Mom: This is your Mother. The school nurse called me at 11:30 this morning to say that both "Little Man," and "Big Sister" have Head Lice and I had to go pick them up.

Me: (Very discustedly) Oh, Fuck! (I know it was my Mother, but she understood, given the gravity of the situation. Besides, she is 62 years old, and it's not like she hasn't ever heard or even used it herself. In her defence, she doesn't walk around making sailors blush, but I have heard her say it.)

Incurable Mom: The nurse showed me one of the nits from Big Sister, and I told her that was not needed since I believed her.

As it turns out, my Incurablettes were two of only 11 children, out of 300 that were infested. My Mom and I figure they got them from someone in the before school care program since they all just toss their coats in a big pile on the floor in the cafeteria.

Disclaimer: If any of you are scratching your head now, it isn't my fault.

Everyone at Incurable Savant World Headquarters used "RID." Only the Incurablettes were infested. Thank God, cause I would have been scratching uncontrollably for weeks, if I would have had them.

Since the school has a "NO NIT" policy the Incurablettes would not be allowed back at school until they were nit free. Thankfully, they were the next day.

A special thanks to Incurable Mom! If it were not for her fervent work till far into the night, and all the next day, we would all be scratching, and the kids would still be at home. Not to mention their Incurable Dad would be in jail for child neglect.

OK, Friday, I am at work thinking everything is now fine as frog's hair. The Incurablettes are both at school, and life is good. Well almost, my cell phone rings at 11:02 am.

Me: This is Incurable Savant

School Nurse: Incurable, this is Nurse. (We are on a first name basis because of all of the hell we went through last year with Little Man.)

Me: Yes. . .

Nurse: Big Sister is in my office with the flu. She has blown chunks all over, 4 times, since she got here 30 minutes ago. (Actually, Nurse is very perfessional at all times, but I'm a guy, and it is fun to type "blown chuncks.")

Me: While I wanted to discustedly say, "Oh, Fuck!" I wouldn't do that to Nurse, even though I think I know here well enough. I sure thought it though!

Thankfully Incurable Mom had taken the day off to sanitize Incurable Savant World Headquarters, and everything in it. I rang her up, and she wonderfully picked up Big Sister and took her home.

My Incurable Mom is the Coolest!

Thanks, in large part to my Cool Incurable Mom, Incurable Savant World Headquaters is back to crazy as ever. (Notice, I didn't say normal. It couldn't be turned into something it wasn't to begin with.)

Thanks Mom, I Love you!

Your Incurable Son,

Savant

Not Opening Night, But It Will Do!

Well folks, it is 11:18 pm, and I just returned home from "The Chronicles of Narnia, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe." It was a very good movie. My Mother read the books to my brother and I, as we drove the 27 hours from Michigan to Minnesota, via the U.P., or Chicago wichever way my Dad chose to drive. It has been over 30 years since my Mom read those to us, but I am still in love with them. I won't give anything away, since I don't know who still plans to see it. Take my word for it, it was wonderful!

NEXT!

Well, my match, "J" up and stopped all communications with me. Out of the blue too. I have some ideas as to why, but will never know for sure. I am thinking that if she felt it necessary to break off all communications like that, there must have been a really good reason, and it is better for both of us in the long run.

I say this with a big sigh, becaue I really was begining to like "J." I was eagerly waiting until we met in January. However, as I said earlier, I am sure there was a very good reason for her to do what she did. I don't fault her, and I wish her luck, in here search of a soulmate.

NEXT!

Dear Santa,

I would like anything you might choose from HERE in the 1/18th scale variety.

'Just Fine, Thanks. . .
