I started this post on Monday, when it wasn’t thanksgiving, and I had a lame intro that no longer makes sense. So skipping ahead a bit …
Emily and Helen held a pre-Thanksgiving feast on Saturday. We barely made a dent in all the food, but were completely stuffed by the end of the night. We did pretty well with the wine though. Everything was delicious.
Sunday I went to see my grandpa, who despite not being well, still managed to amuse. “I don’t need occupational therapy, I’m retired.” “Of course it’s short term! There is no longer term, I’m 86!”
Took my mommy out to dinner for her birthday after. The Italian place had pumpkin ravioli, and there was much rejoicing.
The work week went by very quickly. Well, I guess it’s not over yet, I’m working tomorrow. The day before or after a holiday is traditionally a very pleasant day of work. Why take off if I don’t have anything to do? I have some exciting news to share next week. Well, exciting for me, you probably won’t care. I’m really great at building up the suspense aren’t I?
Today we’re going to Bryan’s mom’s to eat lots of food. I love Thanksgiving.
I’m trying to decide whether I should exercise or not. I think I’m leaning towards finishing up with cleaning the house instead. That way I won’t get all sweaty and need to shower, but I’m not sitting on my butt either. Besides, last time I exercised in the morning, I nearly passed out from dehydration. Tea != water. Well, it does a little, but the caffeine dehydrates you, so not a good game plan.
I started putting up Christmas decorations which mostly consist of our 4′ tree, a sparkly tree Marybeth and Tom gave us and some rope lights that I don’t know where to put up. I already broke our “My First Christmas 2007” ornament. So much for being nostalgic.
Need to start Christmas shopping. There’s a black friday deal on BTTF blu-ray on Amazon. I feel silly buying it for myself, but I don’t know if anyone else knows about it :-/
HAHA YOU SHOULD HAVE WATER THEN!
Omg I am a water freak – I don’t think anything else but water 98% of the time.
Let me know how your Black Friday shopping goes.
I am so jealous.
tea’s very healthy too. And I did drink a glass of water too, but apparently that wasn’t enough :-/
LOL about working Black Friday! I know what you mean about not having things to do. Haha. Yeah, I may work tomorrow too, we’ll see. If I don’t have any plans, then I’ll work.
Hmm, exciting news to share… Must be work-related…? It’s in the same paragraph… =P Haha.
Haha, I’m wondering if non-programmers get the “!=”. Haha.
Yeah, I need to start Christmas shopping too… =/
I haven’t started Christmas shopping yet either. I keep reading about everyone being done already so it’s refreshing to see another person who hasn’t started yet.
I bought myself something on Black Friday last year on Amazon.com, haha. Don’t feel bad.
Re: BTTF blu ray I know a someone who may buy it for you for Christmas -if you can wait so long!!!
it’s been out since october. I think I can wait a little longer. It’s on my amazon wishlist. I suggest going through that so we don’t have another Nemo incident :P
