December 2004

December 30, 2004: Auld acquaintance not forgot
Comments: 0 | Categories: Ponder
My typical new year's eves are predictably lame-o affairs involving spiked punch, people I don't know, truly pathetic attempts at small talk, and no midnight kisses, not even from my husband. One year, as I recall, I think I went...

December 27, 2004: Presents for me
Comments: 0 | Categories: Awesome
Holiday weekend + Sims 2 + DVD "shout out the name of the movie" game (which I rocked, by the way) + Monday morning at work = sleepy, unmotivated, slowly-coming-off-her-sugar-high girl. The best thing about today is that no one...

December 20, 2004: Christmas list
Comments: 0 | Categories: Ponder
Work hours until my three and a half day weekend: 21 Presents left to purchase: 1 Liters of water sucked up by the tree whose trunk we did not saw off upon bringing it home from that urban tree farm,...

December 16, 2004: Witness statement
Comments: 1 | Categories: Ponder
I saw an accident happen today. I was sitting at a light two blocks from my apartment. It's not a perfect four-way intersection. The cross streets are at skewed angles and from where I was sitting, I could turn left,...

December 15, 2004: The morning after
Comments: 0 | Categories: Rants
The day after last year's white elephant gift exchange, I found a stack of crappy cds in the kitchen drawer. A month later I found a Buddha figurine in a tub of vanilla ice cream I was about to throw...

December 13, 2004: No more sweaty windows

This will be quick. They're putting new windows in tomorrow and about this I am supposed to be unbelievably excited. Except- not. We had to move the chair and pull out my desk and move the table and we had...

December 9, 2004: Wherein Banana Republic elevates itself to an important government position
Comments: 0 | Categories: Rants
When I woke up this morning it was light outside. And that's how I knew it was going to be an Alexander kind of day. I woke up about 5 minutes after I should have left for work. It took...

December 8, 2004: Photographic Evidence
Comments: 0 | Categories: Cranky
The wigs, the mayhem, the coveted Christmas Light Headband- it actually happened. The China albums are now combined and I'm keeping the Kalispell album up because people still seem to look at that one, Young. Also, the Internet needs to...

December 5, 2004: We Figgied!
Comments: 1 | Categories: Awesome
After an entire day of stomach butterflies, after worrying about rain, after getting a Figgy staff person to hurriedly fix the team sign so it read "Sassy Santa's: No Talent Required" instead of Wacky Aunt's name (and good GOD, Public...

December 3, 2004: Been an angel all year
Comments: 0 | Categories: Awesome
All the pink? Not so much. I wish I was a Photoshop Princess with a staff of cheery technogeek eunuchs scurrying about the Mighty Maggie palace building me a pretty pink masthead with excellent resolution. (The movie I watched over...
