Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Well I was only wanting things from one store and really only 2 things there - Christmas light organizer and ornament storage boxes.
Not enough money to do much more.
My goal by the first of the year is to get this place ready to be painted. That means as much as possible in downstairs storage, sold or given away, so that each room's stuff can be pulled easily into the middle of the rooms and covered with drop clothes.
Happy birthday, Jesse, Theo, and Rayne!
ETA: I just bought a wii—my first video console set-up. My sister bought me the wii Dance Dance Revolution for Christmas, so it seemed like a good idea. If everything gets in by New Years Eve there may be an addition to my NYE party plans. Drinking and DDR! I'll be sure to have ace bandages and a flipcam handy.
Thank you! The boyfriend got me Windows 7 for my birthday! Something I probably couldn't justify buying for myself, but I really wanted it, so it's the perfect gift! (And he gave me Torchwood Seasons 1 and 2 for Christmas!)
Happy birthday, Jesse and Theo!
Happy Birthday, Jesse!
Happy Birthday, Theo!
Happy Birthday, Rayne!
Thanks, you guys! I just went to a basically empty Trader Joe's, where I learned that the horseradish pub cheese they now have there is not the same one they used to carry, but is the same one they have at my supermarket, except way cheaper. Good one!
We're going to COSI (the science museum) in Columbus, to meet an old friend I haven't seen since she came to my wedding, 11.5 years ago! Also we hope to go to Katzinger's Deli, where we always used to stop on the drive between Cincinnati and Cleveland.
They moved COSI right across the River a few years ago. The new location is HUGE and fabulous. We love it and I miss being able to take the kids there regularly.
Katzingers is love. Of course, so is Thurman's Cafe and Schmidts. German Village has the best places to eat! God, I miss Columbus.
Happy Birthday, Jesse, Theo and Rayne!
Happy birthday, Jesse!

We are rich in TJ's gift cards, so we'll have to make a run sometime this weekend. Jesse's practically empty one sounds like a good one to go to.
Highlights of Christmas:
Emmett and Matilda contemplate the portrait EM's friend did from an old photo of the two of them
I made a thing! (Original here)
Jesse's practically empty one sounds like a good one to go to.
I would guess that your local will not be crowded if you go right now!
My freezer is so full right now, I will barely have to grocery shop for weeks. Theoretically. But I have plenty of meat and cookies, at least...
damn. My head hurts. I have to got Big Lots to get plastic containers in an attempt to constrain the mess.
Happy birthday to Jesse, Theo and Rayne!
I'm paralyzed by indecision.
I'm more paralyzed by the desire to not do much at all today. It's the last day with the cousins (unless we decide to go up there for NYE), so we might go see The Princess and the Frog.
When did Matilda start to look so very much like Emmett? It must have been all along, but in those pics it is so very apparent.
