Well, this morning I had jambalaya for breakfast with my daughter who prepared it, gave my kitten her meds to help her with what is probably an infection in her bowels, and watched a few episodes from the second season of Charmed via DVD, which I got from my daughter as part of my "25 days of Christmas" pile of presents she bought on Black Friday. :)
Had to.

I went for a run at 6 this morning, got to the end of the road and decided its become too cold, too wet, and too windy to go for a run and still enjoy it so walked back and waited for the shop to open so I could get some cigarettes. Then played zelda, browsed the internet and just chilled out.

Made myself a nice breakfast of eggs, toast, bacon, and potatoes. Now I'm back under the blankets with my mint tea with no real plans for today.

I was all motivated for good surf this afternoon but the wind ruined any chance.  White water as far as the eye could see. Gah...  :(

Had to.

I see your Seinfield, and I raise you a "scrubs"
"We've thought of life by analogy with a journey, with pilgrimage which had a serious purpose at the end, and the THING was to get to that end; success, or whatever it is, or maybe heaven after you're dead. But, we missed the point the whole way along; It was a musical thing and you were supposed to sing, or dance, while the music was being played.

So what do ex-(insert name of institutionalised superstition)'s do on the sabath they used to observe?
Weekends are designed to be a time to live life to the fullest, having earned it with a full work week. I usually spend my Sunday mornings making a delicious meal for not only myself but my family—this morning it was thick cut bacon, scrambled eggs with chives, and toasted leftover croissants—followed by spending time together, playing with my dog after breakfast has settled, cleaning up in the kitchen, maybe some reading or watching a video, and some light internet browsing. After lunch, I plan on going Christmas shopping. I found a very old printing of the Velveteen Rabbit, my mother's favorite book, at a book store, and I'm going to get my dad a pair of Red Wing Beckmans, since he's living on Montana now and needs some nice outdoor boots. I might get in a little Minecraft after that, then I'll sweep and rake the front yard so it's leaf-free come Monday, and then I'll watch Dexter.

If I was still religious, I would have had to get up at 6:00 a.m., motivated by guilt that I was, yet again, considering skipping church. I'd have had to get cleaned up, shaved, have a very quick breakfast (eating fast can give one indigestion), and then head out to the early service, where I would undoubtedly be an usher or choir director or something. I'd then have Bible study, then the big service, then lead the Sunday School, then go to the contemporary service where I pretend that Christian rock is cool. Since we're so close to Christmas, there would no doubt be an elders' meeting or church board meeting finalizing plans for the season, which would probably last until 2:00 p.m. By the time I'd get home with my family, I'd be exhausted, so I'd take the rest of the day off and not get anything done. And then I'd feel guilty for resenting church for making me tired the day before the work week gets started again.
I want bad people to look forward to and celebrate the day I die, because if they don't, I'm not living up to my potential.

Good choice of footwear they last for years (especially as they are goodyear welted) and well worth the money.
