I've been looking at my picture of my grandfather from 1984, and it has finally occured to me that's where I got my nose. Hmm. How odd. I do resemble my mother more, but I have my father's coloring instead. I've also noticed that in the very young pictures of my grandfather, he looks an awful lot like my cousin Rob. (Yes, part of that is the glasses and the short hair, but they have the same shape of face.) Anyhow, I am hoping he will send me more scans of the photographs he has.

This morning is cloudy, and I'm in no mood for business. It's almost Christmas though, and that makes me happy. I suppose I should get dressed for work, armor myself for the day. Maybe we'll get very lucky and it will be quiet. Most of the schools are letting out about now, and call volume drops some then.

Is it too early to plan for my birthday? I want to do something special this coming year. (Yeah, yeah, five months away already.) I'm taking off time the week before to go to Phoenix Rising with Racheline, but I think I need to take a long weekend for my birthday too. Maybe even go somewhere. The thought just occured to me when I woke up this morning.

Somewhere in this apartment lurks my magazine that I am not done reading.
