Loooonnggggg Time, No See!

Damn! How long has it been since we've last spoken? 3 weeks?! Well, Mr. bIdEuX solemnly apologizes for any soul damaging disappointment you may have endured over the past 3-4 Sundays. Originally, the plan was to test my patience and skill by creating a completely self-inspired layout for the blog. I accomplished that feat, although mostly haphazardly, but decided in the end that I enjoyed the simple layout that I've had all along. I've made some mild progress during my absence, but not in the areas I've liked to the most.

Thanksgiving:
Leaves bursting with reds, golds, and browns; for many, this natural yet colorful miracle signifies the agony of being surrounded by obnoxious, overly aggressive in-laws and shoveling pounds of turkey down the esophagus. For me, it meant babysitting my 3 cute little imps, and listening to the sound of leather meeting flesh and cries echoing throughout the house. My solution? Video games! Oh, a couple of cousins and Starbucks frappuccino made an appearance:

#69 Sponsor a child from a 3rd world country


This beautiful little girl is Esther Mwelu Musyoki from Nairobi, Kenya. She and her family are practically destitute with probably $150-$200 annual income. Hopefully, my contributions (which doubles her family's annual earnings) will provide her with a better life. Soon, I plan to increase the amount of charity to $50 a month which would triple her income. Really, everyone should participate in this...what's $24 f*ckin' dollars a month? Seriously, people probably spend much more than that on junk food alone.

#5 Get 360 waves
Okay, let's ignore the vain nature of the pictures to follow. With that being said, I've made some progress in this area. I have to allow my hair to grow for another 3-4 weeks starting today. It's hell walking around with a damn bush on my head, but it'll be worth it in the end (forgive the greasy forehead shot):

#63 Own the "Top 100 Grossing Movies of All Time"
I've added a bulk sized addition to the collection (oh God, thank you for the 'After Thanksgivings Sale")! The happy orphans were:

Spiderman
Spiderman 2
Casino Royale
Mission: Impossible
Mission: Impossible II
Ocean's Twelve
Rain Man
Superman Returns
X-Men
X2
X-Men: The Last Stand

#108 Find that damn game from Gamefly & send it back
I completed this task sometime last week...well, not exactly. After lazily searching throughout the house for the game (which has caused much more trouble than it's worth...the game was hot, steaming garbage), I accepted the fact that it's not going to be found (most likely the imps somehow got their hands on it). So, I just bought the game from them to clear my account, which was the main purpose of finding the video game anyway. I'm going to count this as done.

#66 Make 3 new unique & true friends
Latinas! I've known these girls for about 2 months (I only count one as a friend) and they've acted more like friends in this short amount of time than others I know. We had a pretty fun day Friday...the aquarium, ice skating, horse carriage around downtown Atlanta...just laid back fun:

That's it for now, hopefully more progress will be made in the next couple of weeks. Mr. bIdEuX out!
