Hey, all Halifaxistas. Hope your holidays are going well so far.
Sue, I'm (verrry slowly) getting caught up in the Firefly thread & I saw your post about your tape supplier having problems. I have a tape of the pilot I can put in the mail tomorrow if you want it right away. Just email my profile address & let me know.
Hey Dani!
I went to the Body Shop and bought Juicy lime and mango body wash. Mmmm, fragrant.
I'm getting ready to go to work after having a week off. I feel physically ill. UGH! Good thing it's only for 1 1/2 days and then I have 2 1/2 days off again.
runs naked onto the abandoned thread. rugby tackles the number.
Whoooo! Number Ho!
HEY! What are you doing here!? Companioning our numbers and then leaving without so much as a note?
Yes. Yes I am. Because I'm a cheap number ho - but I'm SO not able to contribute to any conversations which involve knowing about Buffy

of the US. What with the whole not-seen-a-single-ep-of-this-season-yet-ness inherent in being English.
Sigh.
Elena, I realised later that morning that you missed the bus on the way home. Me silly. But you're on break now, with incoming Trudiness! Woohoo!
I am at work - full day today, half-day tomorrow, and then I'm done for the week. Yay! Now I just need to finish my Christmas shopping ...
I went for my blood test today - there were only four or five people ahead of me, and I was out of there within a half-hour. Yay for Christmas (I'm guessing that's why it wasn't so busy).
Last night we had the candlelight Christmas/Solstice service at the Unitarian church. I played recorder duets during the Offering (with another person - I'm not that good), and my family sang "Carol of the Bells" a capella in four parts (I was the tenor). We sounded pretty darn good, and got the most applause.

Walking to work this morning, I was struck by the beauty of the season. There was a light dusting of snow on the ground, covering the dirt and grime, making the city look wonderfully fresh.
As I walked through a nearby 4 star hotel, so I could make my way to work through the pedways and tunnels, again the splendor of the day before Christmas became evident in their decorations. A pretty tree, fragrant pine bows, and icicle ornaments trimmed the lobby with a perfect Christmasy touch.
Looking out the window, all this polished beauty was completed by the wonderment of a 20 foot high, inflatable, Molson Canadian beer can. Oh the joy! Oh the beauty of the inflatable beer can! I can celebrate the season in peace knowing that the Christmas beer can is overlooking the city. PRAISE BE!
