 It has been some fucking shitty year, right enough.
 It's gonna get a lot shittier if you can't drink. But not as shitty as liver failure, which I understand sucks pretty hard. 2015 sucked for me personally. 2016 sucked for everyone. I don't have high hopes for 2017.  So, ya know, try not to die and add to the shit.  |

 I'm hopeful for 2017. But I think that way every year. And I don't really get concerned with celeb deaths. |

 Dastardly, or just breaking them?  I'm just wondering since getting shit to just work is a challenge.   I suppose IoT will be a real thing eventually but it's not there yet.  Not really really.  I do probably need to insert the phrase into my resume somehow. |

 I almost think that the world would have been a much better place if fucking Y2K had actually fucked a lot of things up instead of just being a bunch of scaremongering.
 Or, maybe we have just been in the 1999 after-party and it is finally closing up shop?
 
 Regardless, 2016 has been shitty, 2017 is looking to be worse.

 In not-shitty-2016 news, a duck has taken up residence in my back yard. A domestic Pekin duck, a little wary of people and confused the lake has started to freeze. We're feeding it trying to find some way to get it through winter. None of the neighbors is missing a duck, and they've all agreed that if none of them kill and eat the duck, I won't throw a flaming yule log through their front windows. |

 Apparently an Amazon delivery van got robbed round the corner from me yesterday. A few guys slapped the driver around a bit, took his keys and drove off with the entire van. I'm 90% sure it had an order for me on it that included a bottle of mead (Xmas present for someone). I reckon they should ask around in Riften first, see if the Thieves Guild know anything. |

 Ugh, I should have just planned to take the whole day off today and not do the "work in the morning, then take the shuttle to the airport for an evening flight" thing.
 At least I am working from home this morning and not in the office.
 
 But damnit, I want to be on my way to the mountains. I's gots skiin to do!
