I had a nap!
I still feel a little oogy though.
My sister gave me the sweater for Christmas.

Speaking of mimosas -- well, Sean was -- does one need more than oj and champagne for mimosas? I thought that was all there was to them, and then I looked them up online and saw all these references to triple sec, marichino cherries, grand marinier, etc. I had been planning on bringing them to a friends NYD brunch tomorrow, and now I'm all intimidated.

I've been invited to two different shindigs and I'm staying home and liking it. I like the people, just....nah.
Also? Trying to help my mom use her computer and troubleshoot via email? Sucks.
I braved target and got myself a snuggly soft bathrobe (faux cashmere) and dish soap and printer paper. I use giftcards for such exciting stuff!
I need to figure out where to find a piece of 5x6.5 glass (broke a picture frame,) a frame for some peruvian watercolors mom gave me and non-bed pillowshams/covers. I suppose I could make the latter, but that would require getting a sewing machine and swearing a whole helluva lot. Me!=crafty.

I have always just had oj and champagne in mine, Calli.
Never had any complaints either.

Oh, good. Thanks, Lee. I shouldn't worry -- they'll get champagne in the a.m. (well, barely -- 11ish) and that should be tasty enough for anyone.
Heh. ETA: This quote popped up when I made this post.
I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I got out of work early, and my parents aren't home. I feel I should make the most of it, but may instead nap.
Which would be mosting...

I don't know what those hoity-toity fancy mimosas you found online were, but the original and best (ONLY) recipe remains champagne + OJ. Be thou not afraid.

Well thank goodness you didn't decide you wanted a bathrobe made out of the real Cashmere. She probably wouldn't have been too happy about that, and she'd likely not be the only one complaining, either.

Yay for early work getting out, ita. Go nap, choose nap.

Greetings!
I will sit in the "not doing anything exciting for New Year's" corner. I've decided I needed a quiet New Year's this year to horde up energy for next year's New Year's...in Vegas, bay-bee!
Having a quiet dinner with my family tonight (oops...make that "am late for quiet dinner with family") and then plan to just chill out, do some grading (because I have done none...it's very sad and a little scary), do some chatting, do some ball-dropping champagne sipping, and then do some sleeping.
Happy New Year, everyone!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Mmm. I'm still full from brunch as well. And Frances was even moderately well-behaved. No tears, minimal mess at the table, but there was some wandering around the restaurant.
I've promised my DH that I'd make banana bread if he cleaned the moldy closet. (I feel kind of guilty letting Allergy Boy clean the mold, but I'm also skeevy about massive mold exposure while pregnant.) I should really get started.
