Things have been incredibly busy in the days following Thanksgiving.
In somewhat chronological order:
* Went to Johnstown, Pa., and watched the Johnstown Chiefs. I felt all "Slap Shot." It was awesome. Had dinner at a place called Johnnie's with some of the most real people I've ever met in my LIFE. Lost big time at Pennsylvania scratch-off tickets. (Screw you, Commonwealth!!) The liquor store worker said we could park by the bridge " 'n at."
* Went to Harrisburg, Pa., and checked into the Crowne Plaza where Julie and I decided we could move in. They give you a sleep mask, a sleep CD and lavender bed spray. I'm in love.
* Spent all day Saturday afternoon with Julie walking around Harrisburg, going to see the inside of their Capitol, taking pictures, walking to City Island, looking at leaves and molesting the newspaperman statute.
* Got pretty well acquainted with Harrisburg nightlife. Got a standing ovation from the wonderful bartending staff at The Firehouse on North Second Street for my knowledge of the lyrics of "It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine)." Suck it, Ed.
* If I don't get a Nintendo Wii soon, I'm gonna kill somebody.
* Saw my first ever Hershey Bears hockey game at Giant Center in Hershey. Went to chocolate world. Everybody asks if the town smells like chocolate. I couldn't smell. I was still sick. I'm now a huge Hershey Bears fan.
* Pennsylvania Turnpike: I still hate you. But I'm buying an EZ Pass to make our relationship better.
* Came back to work. New guy started! Woo!
* My divorce became final at 4 p.m. November 27. This wasn't easy. Or fun. It was sad. And it was like watching a movie of it happening. It didn't feel like it was happening when I was sitting there.
* Volleyball. Visit from Mom.
* Intent to go to the gym, but everybody is hellbent on feeding and watering me. I'm OK, I promise. Hot fudge cake isn't going to make me thin. And I've got two half-marathons to try to do next year!
... I think that's it. But I'll jump back into ye olde blogging game as soon as the dust clears.

I love Hershey! I thought it smelled like chocolate, but it could have been my imagination.
I went through the divorce thing myself not too long ago. I know what you mean. Even though he had moved out (and out of state), it was still surreal.
I am glad you are fine though.
You make the www a better place.
A least you have WVU-Pitt to wash away the blues on Saturday.
I'm watching the game from here ... alone. No body here is really into that game but me. I start talking about burning a couch and they think I'm a freak.
Oi, achei seu blog pelo google está bem interessante gostei desse post. Gostaria de falar sobre o CresceNet.

O provedor paga 20 centavos por hora de conexão discada com ligação local para mais de 2100 cidades do Brasil. O CresceNet tem um acelerador de conexão, que deixa sua conexão até 10 vezes mais rápida. Quem utiliza banda larga pode lucrar também, basta se cadastrar no CresceNet e quando for dormir conectar por discada, é possível pagar a ADSL só com o dinheiro da discada. Nos horários de minuto único o gasto com telefone é mínimo e a remuneração do CresceNet generosa.

If is possible add the CresceNet(www.provedorcrescenet.com) in your blogroll, I thank. Good bye friend.
You get to watch your boys beat the holy hell out of a team coached by a man with a porn-star mustache. If people started using Wandstadt as a first name and he brought a cue-stick to bars it would be perfect!
