Oddness/Weirdness

Sadly I haven't posted a thing to this blog in about 2 weeks... work and the holidays have conspired to make me one tired arse woman.  One of my New Years/birthday resolutions is to post something daily and hopefully I'll be able to stick to that.  I'm gonna try, that's for sure.
