In which it’s like I’m turning over a new leaf or something, what with all the being organized and shit.

This is how on top of the holiday game I am:

I had my Christmas letter written yesterday, when it was still November! I have created a Christmas card list! I have purchased over half of the gifts I need! Tomorrow, since I have the day off, I’ll probably dig the box of santas out of the attic and help G’ma decorate the house.

Superfreaky, yo. I’m all in the Xmas spirit, bitches.

In other news, last night I got my knit on while watching Doctor Who1 and eating insanity bread2 on Teh BF’s couch. Using some of the yarn she gave me, I started this hat for him. Yay!


1 We’ve watched all of seasons 1, 2, and 4 of the new Doctor Who, and have only two episodes left of season 3 and then we have NO. WHO. LEFT.
We’ve also watched all of the Torchwood episodes, so we’re kinda freaking the fuck out because what delicious Brit sci-fi will we watch next?
2 Insanity bread is an invention of Teh BF’s involving frying slices of French bread in olive oil and butter, rubbing them with raw garlic, and topping them with brie and sliced tomato and avocado. It’s hella good and it looks like this.

    Fantastic use for that yarn! 🙂

    BTW, you’ve got me hooked on the idea of Bento lunches. Spent my last paycheck on a couple boxes, a few cookbooks, vegetable shapers and rice molds (or sandwich makers, depending on how you look at it).

    Bento is crack. You watch out. Srsly. -m

    And bento stuff’s cheap if you buy it on eBay! -m

    Man, it bums me out when I’m watching a good series on dvd and then I run out of seasons. It’s like, “What am I going to do with my life now?” I become lost and directionless with my free time.

    Damn, you and your xmas spirit. I’m still all grinchy… even though I did put up my tree this weekend.

    I basically ignored Xmas for over a decade; that’s why I’m into it now. It’ll pass. -m

    dang, u put me to shame. tho i did make a weak start on my own attempt at home-made xmas gifts… which i can’t quite get from “ok” to “fantastic” in my plans… they’re so… two dimensional. (there’s a chance a beneficiary may stop by so i can’t be more specific).

    and we dint even gets our tree. 🙁

    as for series… if there’s enough to the series, start all over an watch em again. that always works for me. 🙂 often, i wander off to another series before finishing the second pass, but it avoids that whole ‘at loose ends’ feeling. 😉

    I’m totally gonna have to watch Torch again. That show is CRACK. -m

    The shit is SO AMAZINGLY CRAZY WICKED GOOD. -m

    Oh my…all this talk of Christmas makes me want to break out in hives. We are opting out of most of Christmas this year…no pressures, no presents, not too much decorating…I’ll make a wreath when I get home, but no tree this year. I’m just sick of it…Christmas is a kids holiday…bring on New Years!

    LOL! I feel you! -m
