Yakkety Yak

It's late, so this will be brief, but I want to let you all in on the latest stuff.

Everything went well on my trip to the US Consulate in Calgary and I actually received my new passport in the mail this past week.  So I can now travel outside of Canada again!  I've already purchased a plane ticket to Ohio to spend Christmas at my mom's, so I'm looking forward to that.

I finally heard from Tim again last week.  Basically the reason I hadn't heard from him was because his wife had come to town to work on a job with his crew.  So he couldn't call me during the day or at night!  We've spoken a few different nights, so it was good to hear from him and feel like we caught up a little.  I presented the idea to him of trying to meet up somewhere, maybe for a weekend, sometime after Christmas.  He liked that idea.  I said that we didn't need to figure anything out now, but just to be thinking it over.  I think we've at least decided where we'll meet because there is a city to which I can fly direct and it's not a super long drive for Tim to get to.  So we might finally get to see each other early next year!

Has anyone seen the movie "The Tree of Life?"  I can't make up my mind about it, although the music is wonderful.

I barely left the house yesterday and haven't set foot outside today.  Why?  Because it is so frickin' cold outside.  It only got up to -18 C, which is about -1 F.  And that was the high.  Without windchill.  Fortunately, after another cold day tomorrow - which I'll be spending watching football anyway - it gets better on Monday and we might even get slightly above freezing on Tuesday and Wednesday!  So at least we're not in the permanent winter deep freeze just yet.  Hallelujah.
