The Aftermath
Santa was very good to me this year. He brought me almost everything on my list. I also got to spend 4 wonderful days with my nephew. The only drawback to the whole holiday season was the 4 hour drive home in the blizzard. c got me a beautiful white gold necklace and 2 pairs of earings in addition to my favorite chocolates Mrs. Field's. Oh my god, they taste just like the cookies, even better actually. My mom bought me almost everything I wanted for the kitchen. My dad gave me the best gift...cash. I bought my season tickets for the Yankees and a new washing machine. I am pretty much set now in the apartment.
Tomorrow we pick up the washing machine, I hope. c brought home his friend r.a today and he is spending the night. Normally I wouldn't care but they are going to stay up all night drinking beer and being loud. c insists that he will be up early to get the truck and r.a and d are going to help him with the machine and the rest of my furniture. We will see how early they can get up after their party night. No matter what we need to get that washing machine because I have about 3 weeks worth of laundry to do. It is starting to ooze out the bedroom door into the hallway. If all else fails I will make my own washing machine out of the bathtub.

This weeks This or That only slightly delayed
1. Opening presents...rip 'em open with all abandon, or carefully open, preserving the pretty paper for recycling? Screw the paper, rip them open with reckless abandon
2. Do you and yours take turns, opening one gift at a time, or does everyone just rip into everything at the same time? One for you, Once for me, One for you , One for me.
3. If you get something you don't like...do you try to return it, or keep it so as not to hurt the giver's feelings?I try to return it but I lie about why like it didn't fit or it didn't work right etc.
4. Do you spend the holiday at home (yours or someone else's), or do you go out and eat, see the newest movie, whatever?Always at home.
5. What do you do with Christmas cards after the holiday is over? Save them, or toss them? Save them and then use them to decorate next year.
6. Cook Christmas dinner, or does someone else do that?Well anyone who knows me knows the kitchen is MINE!
7. It's Christmas Eve, and you have run out of wrapping paper. Do you go out and buy more, or wrap the rest of the gifts in the Sunday comics? Sunday comics baby and when you run out of that draw on some brown paper bags.
8. On Christmas morning...up at the crack of dawn, eagerly anticipating the loot...or would you rather sleep in? I sleep with one eye open so I can see when the clock hits like 6:00am. Then I get to wake everyone up
9. Do you want a white or a green Chrismas?Let it Snow
10. Going to church on Christmas...yes or no? Thats a negative.
