I hope everyone is having a great holiday! I had an awesome morning I believe I got pretty much everything I asked for with the exception of a Red Earred Slider turtle setup and a set of drawers to go under my desk. The turtle will have to wait anyway. I was told someone nearly bought it for me though but was discouraged by my mom. Drat. Oh well, I’ll live without them for now. I’m rocking out on my new JBL OnStage Speakers. The sound is amazing. Everytime I saw them for a cheaper price I’d pass to along to my mom and eventually I found them for $60 less than the average price. I’d recommend them to any iPod owner who wants to listen to music away from their computer. My mom recieved the Bose Sound Dock this morning and I think they both sound equally good.

We’re going to see a movie today, any recomendations? I’d really like to see Match Point.

This will be the first year since my parents divorced in 1996 that I’ll have one Christmas. My Dad sent his gifts to me this year and I wrapped them and put them under the tree to open with my mom and stepfather (and herd of animals) on Christmas. When I lived with him if I was going to visit my mom, we’d have Christmas before I left and when I visited him last year I had Christmas here when I got home. I’m going to call him while I’m opening his gifts tomorrow. Thankfully he got the box I sent him this morning. I was very worry it wouldn’t get there on time. And the BIG surprise was the gift I bought my mom got here today so I didn’t have to run out and get something else. Of course I ordered two since I needed one as well and they only threw one of each acessory in. I may order another in the future from the same place to get the rest.

My stepfather discovered why leaving your new $89 Bluetooth headset on the floor is a bad idea a few days ago. The dog came along and chewed it up. *wince* He’s had the phone for three years and found out about Bluetooth back in April and just bought the headset two weeks ago. He hadn’t even used it.

While I was sitting around my mom and stepfather’s tree we realized he probably didn’t leave it on the floor after the 9 inch tall dog came along and pushed a wrapped book off the coffee table. It was probably on the chair in his office and not on the floor. Not sure what he’s going to do now but the dog is batting 1000 this week.

For some reason I just love the little Yule-Log on the G-mail homepage.

I attempted to put up my small Christmas tree. I bought it the day before the rain started and couldn’t bring it in soaking wet and today when I tried it just dropped thousands of needles everywhere. So after 10 minutes of vacuuming I decided it would be happier outside.

And I see the dog training my mom has put into her dog to leave the cat alone is working well . The dog (small dog) is sitting on her big orange tabby that could probably crush the dog if he wanted to.

I found the cutest dog the other night for adoption. I’m tempted to go save her but it’s not really the right time for me to get a dog. She’s a tri-colored Manchester Terrier Mix and so sweet.

Edit: Ten minutes later the cat is still being tortured. He’s not too bright. I can pick him up and save him and he’ll jump back down. The dog stays far away from my cat because she’ll smack the crap out of her, without claws I might add (not my choice).

After wanting a skinny scarf and not wanting to spend a ton of money on it I decided to knit one. I bought a gorgeous ball of yarn with blues and greens and started work on it this evening. I’m just around half done and it’s going to look good with my new short hair cut . Somehow I went from fifteen stitches to sixteen. While I was at the craft store I gathered a few other items to use as Christmas gifts. I made a gorgeous necklace for my mom for her Birthday and I’m going to make one for a family friend too since she loved my mom’s. I’m not totally sold on my design yet so I’m going to head to a bead store at some point today to find a certain item I need. I have way too much I want to do today and not enough time. Have to get some clothes ironed for an interview late in the afteroon (cross your fingers).
