Merry Christmas, Happy New Year

Hi everyone! Sorry I haven't posted for so long. I was on a military leadership course for a month. Let's just say I'm glad that it's over and I'm happy as a pig in shit to be home. Christmas is almost here and I'm still not ready. I've been working everyday, but I;m off tomorrow at noon and can't wait to celebrate.

I love Christmas. Even though I say I hate the snow, I think it is necessary to snow down our lives and stop us from rushing through the holidays. Plant your car somewhere you're not going to get a ticket and have some rum and egg nog.

Side note: Am I the only one who thinks the parking ban is ridiculous? Just because Halifax is in debt they think it is okay to ticket people who are parked on the street even if the streets don't need to be cleared. I understand the parking ban when it's snowing, but if there is no snow on the ground how can they ticket us? It's like charging a sober driver for impaired driving.

Cop: Do you know why I pulled you over?

Driver: Actually, no.

Cop: If you were drinking, you would be driving drunk.

Driver: Yeah, but I'm not drinking, so I'm sober.

Cop: Well we ticket people for parking on the streets when they don't need to be cleared, just based on the fact that if it was snowing their car would be obstructing the plows. Sorry, I'm just going off what they tell me.

Driver: So you're giving me a ticket for nothing?

Cop: Pretty much. Merry Christmas.

Just make sure you don't drink and drive. Road blocks are everywhere, not to mention it is stupid and people can get hurt. Be safe and take a cab.

I hope Santa is good to everyone. I'll try and keep this updated daily. My life is slowing getting organized so bare with me.

Merry Christmas, Happy New Year!
