Come home to a box of goodies. Hooves, 50ft long line and a CLICKER. Thanks FedEx. Also I didn't know putting a package under a door mat made it invisible. Apparently you learn that at package delivery school.

My friend and I exchanged Christmas gifts today. Because who wants to wait. It ended up being a Harry Potter Christmas.



A Ravenclaw scarf, a butterbeer mug, and a Remembrall ornament. All in a pretty basket. I am so pumped about the scarf.

lol at my Marauders Map being in the background. :p

I bought myself season sets of The Office for Christmas last year. I intended to watch through them once I moved into my house since I won't have cable TV... but I've started watching them now anyway. Since, you know, it's been a year.

OMG I may watch through ALL of The Office in like a week. TV shows on DVD. Holy balls. These are amazing and yet terrible inventions.

I really really really want the complete Friends box set for Christmas but I know if I asked for it everybody would be like "oh I'm sure there's something else you really need more" which is true, like a garbage disposal. But that's not what I WANT. What I WANT is to sit down and watch Friends.
Forever.

No school for 2 weeks, today I'm spending the day in the kitchen making a feast for friends and cookies for our work cookie exchange (not that I get to eat them, but I still love making them!), and my plans for the next two weeks include lots of time spent cooking in the kitchen, and teaching myself how to use my sewing machine :D

I'm a happy camper :)

Also, my house smells like roast...nom!

I'm excited to start the Christmas baking. I am taking everyone in my group at work a small tin filled with goodies, so I will be baking every night this week to get it all done by Friday....I have 6 different things to make, and the house will smell so good! :)

It's 60F and not windy out aka perfect moving weather. Probably could have made this a one trip thing except we didn't have the proper Allen wrench to get the couch apart.

I am SO freaking excited to NOT have school! And I'm also excited for food.

Guess who doesn't have to be at work until 4pm tomorrow? This girl! :)

I thought I had all the seasons, but apparently I only have season 8. Happy to send it to you if you PM me your address though. Maybe it will tide you over until you can get the rest?

My pants are too big! I've lost 25lbs since the end of October :D And I haven't even really been trying. I'm just on two medications that have the side effect of "weight loss" lol

When it was my turn to pick in Fantasy Football, other people had already broken the ALWAYS PICK A RB FIRST pattern and had picked a QB and a TE. I panicked and didn't want to lose Peyton Manning so I picked Peyton Manning as my first pick.
By the time the pick came back around to me for my second grab, Jamaal Charles was the best RB left.

Best.
fantasy.
RB.
pick.
ever.

JC is amazing!

I forgot how comfortable my bed is--even Sawyer is like " Ahhhh, I will put up with being hot because it's so comfy."

I HAVE MOTHER****ING INSURANCE AT LAST! Or at least I will as of January 1st. It only took THREE ****ING MONTHS but it finally worked!

It seems to be pretty good, too. No deductible, no premium, $10 copay for PCP, $25 copay for specialist, $5 copay for generic drugs. And as far as I know, I can actually get my autism related stuff covered! I MIGHT BE ABLE TO GET OCCUPATIONAL THERAPY!!!!

Either didn't care or got brave, but I had the mobile hair cutter do my hair this morning because I couldn't take how gross the ends looked anymore.

For $18, I'm pretty happy.
