We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys are productive!

I forgot to run the dishwasher when I left this morning, bah. Upside: Dishwasher!!

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I love my dishwasher. When I didn't have one, I was all, "Pshaw! It's just me; I can wash my dishes myself!" Now? I'll drink wine out of a mug because the wine glasses can't go in the dishwasher.

I really want a dishwasher.

I am thisclose to finishing my Xmas shopping. I just need to get a couple of gift certificates and a little something else for one more person. Of course, this is when my family starts asking me to pick up things for them. I usually don't mind...unless it's really out of the way.

I will either finish my shopping tomorrow in stores or online when I get home tomorrow.

mac needs to go to bed, but that is not something I am going to fight about tonight. I'm sipping on my ginger and whiskey and all is good.

I have to find something for my sister. Something cool, because she was all "what should I get you? you always get me the best presents" and then today announced (on FB) that she had bought my present. Pressure!!

I did not accomplish anything today, but I figure I get a pass because I woke up snuggling with a girl, and took her to brunch, and then had more snuggles. And am going to meet some friends for dinner and a comedy show later. Should be fun.

Need to pack up and send my secret santa present, since I think I've got almost all of it.

I haven't started my shopping yet.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I haven't started the wrapping yet. That always takes me the longest. I've had one present sitting in the office for a week, waiting for me to buy wrapping paper and wrap them.

I did one part of that today.

I really hate doing much shopping after Thanksgiving except online. But I do like one or two trips out when it is cold and shops are decorated.

I hope I get done early tomorrow and can head home to cook for mac's teachers. I am making my grandmother's caramels which I have never done before.

I am finding a lot of sales, which is making shopping much more pleasant. I bought a nutcracker for my SiL today. It was marked as $39.99, but had actually been marked down to $24.99, and then it was customer appreciation day, so there was another 20% off. Then Liz Claiborne had 50% off everything in the store, so I bought a sweater for me.

I have also found some great deals. I bought a pearl necklace for my sister on Amazon which was marked down from $70 to $45, and then they had special offers, so I got another $13 off, and then they gave me this as a free gift, which I wouldn't wear, so SA is getting it
