ok, so michael wants us to BLOG more. blog blog blog.

i guess the biggest thing is that i got a PROMOTION last thursday -- yeeeeehaw! -- into the graphics department. for now i'm mainly retrieving files from backup tapes, still doing my proofing, and will be trapping some files soon.

as for everything else, my life is booooooogerly busy, working from 8:30 am until 4 pm, then evening classes at cos from 6 - 9:30 every day but monday and friday.

i'm going to start a self published zine, just for the funz of it. just because i need to squeeze in some creativity into my busy life. i figure, you know, dad owns a print shop, i work there every day, i like to write, i'm the perfect candidate! so if you have anything to contribute, send it along. humor, essays, photos, reviews, opinions, poems, i don't care. latidadadaaaaa.

the end.

OK, I posted last... so technically, it's someone ELSE's turn now!

But hey... I have news. I'm going to Tampa on Saturday morning! Yahoo! Going to Busch Gardens, Universal's Islands of Adventure, and Disney/MGM and EPCOT. Can't wait!

It got real cold here all of a sudden. No real snow though.

Talk soon,
Mike

Have not seen "Silverman," but it looks funny! I heard "High Fidelity" was funny too. Gotta see it. Most of the snow has melted, THANKFULLY! Yep, Mom & Dad are at yet ANOTHER printing conference! It's like, "Oh! There's a printing conference in Cancun! We might as well go!" LOL! Suzanne are you locking kids in the closet!?!?!?!!

And no, Clooney was never good. In ANYTHING. But I might make an exception with "Oh, brother."

I am like SO tired. Time for beddy-bye. --Mike

has anyone seen "saving silverman?" tooo funny! jack black is king! just realized the other day that he was in mars attacks.

how long will mom and dad be gone? are they at another printer's convention? suzanne, have you gone to the grocery store? are you starving the kids? don't lock them in the closet anymore. mom got mad last time. tee hee.

at the bookstore, i had to do a cheesy valentine's day set up and take photos of anyone who wanted them. we do this annually for valentine's day and for mother's day. it's a kodak promotion, so we give out free pictures. this year we decided to post them on our website. check them out- you can see me and chip. go to www.spartanshops.com and then go to bookstore, and click on valentine's gallery. i'm in there with some coworkers too. chip is the one who resembles chris farley but with red hair.

is it still snowing over there, mike? i swear i could never live in the snow. you know, it's like cold and stuff.
haven't seen previews for oh brother where art thou. if it has clooney in it, i'd have my doubts. he was never any good, except in the facts of life.

smell ya later

blog, blog, blog, that's all michael does all day.

so mom and dad are out of town, out of state, far far far away. i'm left to sort of maintain the house. it's falling apart. as soon as they leave, all of a sudden two lights in my room just burn out! how many suzanne yadas does it take to screw in a lightbulb? my question is, does it hurt anything to leave the switch on while you change it? miss suzanne is too stupid to know such trivia.

Man! Mom & Dad are in Florida, where it's like 80 degrees. Meanwhile, I'm stuck in Connecticut, where the sun doesn't seem to want to shine. {sigh} Oh well, I guess I asked for it.

You know, after living in Ukraine and Utah, I promised myself I'd never live in a place where it snowed again. Dummy.

I want to go see that movie, "O Brother, Where Art Thou?" Normally I think George Clooney is obnoxious and annoying. But this actually looks cool. Watched two episodes of "Survivor." I think it's an interesting show. So far it's not as good as the first "Survivor," but I think it will get better.

Man, I am drooling over a 1gHz computer... around $1000... Never thought I'd say it, but I'm looking at an Athlon chip...

Oh well, enough rambling! See ya soon,
--Michael
