I've had a twinged neck/shoulder for a couple of days. getting the tree in the stand and actually up didn't really help. it's mostly straight.
Hey, if it means I don't have to read any more, woo and, might I add, a big hoo.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Went shopping for the new stove we've been promising ourselves today. Fun! Trying to hunt down reviews and price comparisons and suchlike due diligence when there are a million almost-identical models and none of the stores' websites quite match up to what we saw in those very same stores? So much less so.

I'm making killer shrimp style shrimp after!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
“Why should I pay $250,000 for a private plane,” he said to a friend, “when I can pay $20,000 to fly commercial first class?”
Months ago, my big boss asked a fancy guy to do our org a favor, and he said he doesn't get to NYC much any more... because the $30K for the jet is a little much.

yikes. appliance shopping scares me in theory. Buying the toilet is the closest I've had to come.
my win of the day is a plastic round Christmas tablecloth we are going to use as a tree skirt. first though, must vaccum needles.

Tomorrow is the last walkers-only thing for the lights so we are trying to go before it becomes the parking lot trip.

Hmm. To me, toilet-buying sounds horrible (because a: ought to be there forever and not demand attention. b: ought not to break down or need replacing ever!) whereas the stove thing is lovely, as one of the main advantages to buying a house was NOT HAVING TO USE A FREAKING ELECTRIC STOVE EVER AGAIN.
ahem. sorry. too long in cheap rentals in the land of cheap construction. anyway.
So this basically is a happy upgrade we've been promising ourselves. But the million models with basically identical features and slightly different model numbers is harshing my buzz just a little.

Productive! You need to not write more often!
I have written a grand total of 134 words, and managed to do that without cleaning the bathroom. I will probably save the bathroom for tomorrow's procrastination fun times.

This is the first tree we've had in this house!
Aw.
msbelle, a 7 ft tree?! Yikes.
It is snowing here.
So I went to BestBuy to size tvs. That was all. And I walked out with a printer/scanner. It was under $60. But still, when I'm sitting around, fretting about finances, not what I needed to do, you know?!! Ah well, the old one was pretty sad.

mac gets to choose the tree, we will probably always have big ones.
