Spotted someone with a full tree up already, again in Burbank.  This time on 79th street, 1 block west of Harlem, South side of the street, first floor apartment.
I don’t know about you, it’s ok to see it in a store, but kind of scary to see it in someone’s home at this date.  I also spotted someone’s lawn with about 50 or so tacky, plastic lawn decorations.  I will try to take a photo of it tomorrow.

Spotted my first Christmas lights this year on someone’s home.  It is November 13.
If you live in the Burbank (IL) area, it is on Central avenue, Just south of 79th street, on the east side of the street.  You usually get caught at the light at Central and State Highway, so you can get a good look at it.

Can we at least get a little closer to Thanksgiving before the lights go up?

Glenn is doing ok.  He was a little fussy today, but he is finally sleeping now.

Aw, shucks, looks like the GOP lost at least the house and probably the senate as well. Such a shame.
With our tremendous economy, job growth, integrity, and the war going so well in Iraq, one would of thought they were a gonna ‘stay the course’ for another 2 years. Oh wait, they suck on all counts, never mind.
As a liberal atheist, I am happy.

In other news, Glenn is eating more solid foods. He has been sleeping well lately. Though, tonight is my night if he wakes up during the night. We shall see.

Work is going ok, but I have discovered if I leave 15 to 20 minutes later, I get home at the same time or earlier. Go figure, Chicagoland traffic.

Interesting pages on shopping additions.  Sounds like we may need an intervention for some mother in law…
