Merry Yule/Merry Christmas Everyone

Well due to popular demand (actually it is just my one aunt), I have been told to update my blog. Not much has really been happening here. Working a lot, I had final exams, and getting ready for Christmas. First lets go to the disappointment that is my college career. I received my final grades, and my classes this term were very hard for me. I do not have the mind for philosophy at all. My professor Dr. Jensen asked me what I was thinking while I was reading Plato, Aristotle, and Kant. My response was that I wanted to jump into the books, hand them all a Bud Light and tell them to chill out. I did get a B as my final grade. The disappointing part. My GPA is 3.33. Not quite Dean's List. I was heartbreaking. Well next term, I hope. We did add a new family member to the household. Her name is Quinn (named after the QB of Notre Dame Brady Quinn), she is an adorable black lab puppy. It was beyond heartbreaking after Trinity left, and fate intervened. A lady at work just out of the clear blue asked me if I wanted a black lab puppy. The rest is history!! She is sleeping on me as I type.
Our Christmas morning festivities are already over. Jake got tons of stuff as usual. Dad got mostly Xavier stuff and Mom got a Trivial Pursuit 80's edition. Which by the way she skunked us in last night. My gift on the other hand was something totally unexpected. Everyone knows that I love old radios. Jeff found me a radio, CD player, and turn table (yes I said turn table). It looks like a vintage radio. I had seen one awhile back, but it was very expensive. Jeff was able to find one much cheaper. It has a great sound and we fired it up with one of my Frank Sinatra records. REAL RECORDS!!! Right now I am listening the The Beatles of course. It was by far the perfect gift for me. Well I hope that everyone has just as wonderful Christmas as I did. Now it is on to work. Everyone be safe and remember the true reason for the season!! Love you all!!
