I've been gone a long while, but now I'm BACK! I've started a new job at Cartoon, I've got a new girlfriend, and it's football season!
As you can see from my previous post, it was last football season. So basically, I suck. But since Blogger has gotten fancier and I can post all kinds of different ways, I'll do it more often.

A couple of Fridays ago, my boss took our department on a retreat to Chateau Elan, a resort / spa / winery just north of Atlanta. It's quite beautiful and, being in the country, a serene place, with golf courses and misty vineyards surrounding the hotel and chateau. There were plans for horseback riding, I picturing myself trotting out of the chateau's stables atop my noble steed, surveying Matt McElhannonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09644688711223782013noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6379050.post-1101401547804869532004-11-25T11:52:00.000-05:002004-11-29T13:30:56.953-05:00Happy Thanksgiving!
The History of Thanksgiving
Three things I'm thankful for:
My Mama, for her love and support, and for reminding me to take life as it comes.
Georgia Bulldogs football - and baseball, basketball, soccer, gymnastics, ballroom dancing, chess club and anything else that has to do with the Georgia Bulldogs.
Coffee with cream and Sugar In The Raw.

Well, yesterday I'm going to see a friend of mine and the brakes screwed up on my Blazer. The same new brakes that a guy and I put on a few months ago. I can't drive it at all.
