    Maybe it's cause I'm tipsy, but you seem to love German.

    Oh, totally, but my husband would pretty much never cry over that stuff. That's my job.

    You're tipsy. Verklempt is Yiddish (which is, of course, very closely related to German).

    There was also that scene in The Avengers movie, where it looked like Tony Stark had bitten the dust. Very sad....

    We are, after all is said and done, creatures of emotion.

    We've actually cried a lot together this fall, but there was a lot to cry over.

    Sorry to hear that. It's been the same at our house. We're all looking forward to 2013's departure.

    See, I thought you were going to say jenever.
     
  11. Gonna spend tonight getting a second ESXi box set up and trying not to think.

    I have butter cookies, pasta sandwiches, a little bit of beer, some milk, and a good new TV show that I discovered over the past week.

    Happy Fucking New Year. Here's to it being better than this past year has been.

    Not quite. This stuff is only 10%. It's La Trappe Quadrupel.

    I can't get a photo, as Tapatalk can't figure out the permissions.

    I have pizza makings, 4 bottles of sparkling wine, and a bottle of jenever. I'm ready for this New Year stuff.

    This is what you do. If you feel low, you stand tall. You mess up, you move on.
    You want to try something, try it, and if it was a stupid thing to try, you look it in the eye. There's no turning back.
    You apologize if you're sorry, but know that the nimblest, strongest hands
    can't rebuild a bridge out of embers, so cut new wood. Start from scratch.
    You love with your whole heart. If you're jealous, talk yourself from the ledge.
    If you can't talk yourself down from the ledge,
    have a good time up there, looking down on the world.
    If you have to lie to make everything true again, lie like you mean it.
    If you find yourself in a cage, reach out through the bars for the key,
    unlock the door, and run away. If running away gets dangerous, run home.
    If home doesn't mean what it used to mean, decide what home will be in the future.
    If your best friend says she doesn't trust you, hold her jaw in your hand until it hurts,
    and make her face you. Thats all it takes.
    If you think you love a guy, see how his hand looks in yours, that's all it takes.
    If you get exiled into a new land, then go discover it.
    And if you feel like you're drowning, go swimming.” - Hobson Brown

    I had a weird thought while I was putting away the leftover mashed potatoes after tonight's festivities...
    "What if I put a dollop of smooth peanut butter on these mashed potatoes?"

    What do you guys think? Bad or good idea?
