A Farewell Letter

Dear 2009,

The time has come at last for the two of us to have a parting of the ways...and I have to confess that I am not sad to see you go. You see, 2009, you contained a lot of suck. Serious, soul draining, calm damaging, ego denting suck.

It didn't help, 2009, that you and I got off to such a bad start. Let's be honest here, the first few hours of you were some of the worst I've had to live through. Your opening act was total crap and things went downhill from there.

You were full of failure, and unhappy change. There was sickness, and death, and separation, and a long bout of depression. There was no love between us, 2009. You were a wretched, twisted hell of a year.

So, 2009, it's time for you GTFO.

Sincerely, The HistoryDiva

Repent Sinner!

...for the end is near!

Just So You Know

There are only 5 days left in 2009.

Randomly Random Randomness

Would you look at that?
I thought these were extinct!!!

Christmas 2009: DivaFamily Style

The DivaMom got books, books, books, and oh yeah, books.

The DivaDad got a shiny new computer.

(Which I'm pretty sure will eat his soul and demand my first born as a sacrifice...but that's a story for another post.)

Check it out! TiaDiva and her brother 'Bob' actually sharing space!
That almost never happens!
It must be a Christmas miracle!

The DivaAunt up to her eyeballs in needlepoint.

It's the DivaUncle!
It's deer season and he isn't out in the woods covered in camo!
It's another Christmas miracle!!

And hey, were you even aware that there is a dog in the DivaStan clan?
Well there is, and her name is Taylor.
She associates me with 'cookies.'
This means she's always really happy to see me.

And finally, the Midget, cuddled up on TiaDiva's leather jacket.

It was a Merry Christmas for the whole crew.

Blessings of the Season

May the joy of the Holidays be yours.

Merry Christmas from all of us at Blissfully Unaware.

There are only...

days left in 2009!

NINJA!!!

Only

Just...

...days till the end of the year!

Oh dear.
You're looking at the picture, aren't you?
You're eyeballing the adorable that is this puppy.

She belongs to a co-worker of mine...and he needed someone to 'puppy sit' for a couple of hours this morning and asked if we (the entire department) would mind keeping an eye on the puppy.

We said yes.
Cause duh, look at that face!

*Groan*
Squishly, wiggly, cuddly puppy!

Yeah, Midget wasn't impressed.

Midget and the Blanket: The Love Story Continues

There was a sigh.
There was a snuggle.

There was snoring.

Sorry Robert, you seem to be losing this fight...

A Rather Slow Thursday

Today, right around lunchtime, the power to our offices flickered...and died. Taking the computers and phones with them. Now, since in my particular department of the company EVERYTHING we do involves the computers and phones, our work day came to an unexpected halt.

And since our boss is in Washington D.C. right now...

And since there was seriously nothing else for us to do for a while...

We did what all reasonable, responsible, hard working, mature adults would do...

We broke out the UNO cards.
