I can't wait for Dec. 26th

Today I finished buying all my families Xmas presents! Whoo hoo! Now I just have to tackle a couple friends, Friendster Guy, and my coworkers. I didn't know about the coworkers until this week. Dang.

And I have to put a few things together before they are completely done...

Then I have to wrap... (although that will most likely involve gift bags. Wonderful little things. And reusable!)

Sigh...
Even when it feels like I've reached the end, it isn't.

Oh, the grace of wonderful gift bags. Dollar General and Dollar Tree stores are wonderful for buying the bags (especially Dollar Tree as they sometimes have 2 bags for $1). Not to mention, I can get my gifts done much faster with bags LOL

I, too, can't wait for December 26th for two reasons: 1) that's my birthday and 2) my boyfriend is flying in to be with me for my birthday and for his (on the 30th).

Isn't it amazing how one is never quite done preparing for Christmas until there is no more time left? Always one more thing to buy and one more thing to wrap and one more thing to bake... no wait... I don't bake... I meant one more thing to eat. I'm looking forward to the 26th as well :-)

Making Eye Babies

Colleges often have a lot of rules the students need to follow. After all, a bunch of 18-21 year olds can't really be expected to self-govern on their own, at least not 24/7, no matter how vehement they are that they can do just that. (I was 18-21 once myself so I know it's annoying to hear that. I don't mean all 18-21 year olds individually, I mean when they all get together in one place.) Then there are Christian Colleges which have more rules, often based on biblical teachings and moral dictates. Further down the spectrum is Bob Jones University* which considers the Christian colleges just too darn liberal so they piles on a bunch of morally based codes of behavior. Not to be outdone by the crazy liberal heathens at Bob Jones, Pensacola Christian College goes hog wild with the rules and moral imperatives and makes the Taliban look almost liberal. An article in the March 24th edition of the Chronicle of Higher Education explains some of the rules and regulations the stu

Gone by the wayside

I have no idea if anyone is reading this anymore. If you have been loyally checking back now and again I applaud you. At one point this blog was a therapeutic outlet for me. I'm glad to have a chronicle of my experiences during this time of my life. Now, however, instead of a creative outlet it's more of a nagging reminder that I should be posting and this girl does not need one more thing on her "To Do" list. I'd love for you to explore the archives if you so chose. If you have already done so, here's a brief update: Friendster Guy and I are still together and co-habitating. We are in domestic, but still unwedded, bliss (that status could be a post or two in and of itself, but, as I've just said, I'm done with that.) We're so domesticated we're in the market for granite countertops. We also just returned from an Aussie/New Zealand vacation and if 8 days in a tiny RV won't solidify (or destroy) a relationship nothing will. We're stronge

Addendum to Resolutions

I'm adding two things to my New Year's Resolutions - 5) Read more using this list as a guide: 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die. I have no idea how many I've already read. I'll have to make a spreadsheet. You can do anything with a spreadsheet. Not that you should , but you can. 6) Get a massage every 6-8 weeks . This probably doesn't need an explanation. I had one for only the 3rd time this week. It's been at least 4 years since my last one. My gym has a spa attached to it and they had an intern doing free massages. Hello? Sign me up! Now that I've had one I'm wanting more. If I eat out less I might even be able to justify it. I wonder if I can write it off on my taxes?
