Enter the holidaze...
So, I've been trying to have some kind of holiday spirit this year. I had none last year. I actually started Christmas shopping last week. I've ordered most of my presents online, and everything else is baked goods. :\ That's usually the best way for me to go, because I can give gifts to people without going broke. As it is, I have to get my secret Santa for work still. To date, I have things for Mom, Wendy, Ashley, CK, Karley, Gary J, Doug, Chris, Emily, and myself, of course. :) Needed to buy myself a ballet. I'm in love with the ballet, and no one ever remembers that, so I bought myself a copy of the Royal Ballet's version of the Nutcracker, starring two Russian dancers, of course. :) I'm considering looking into what ballets will be up and coming in NYC, and maybe getting some tickets. But enough about that.
I'm putting up the tree at the lake today. This is part of my attempted holiday spirit. I've been putting in some serious hours at H&R Block and the bank, so I don't have a lot of time to do these things. Last night, I was with Doug, just spending some "us" time with the help of the Rutgers game. Today I'm getting ready for the holidays, and then spending some time with Chris. I haven't seen him in a couple of weeks, and with the show he's in kicking off, he's going to be busy, so it's see him now or not until at least the holidays, if not after. God only knows what's going to be happening over the next few weeks. Doug's trying to see if he'll be able to go home for New Year's, and if he can manage it, I'm going with him. :) Yay! I'll keep my fingers crossed that everything will work out. I've mourned for enough New Years now... I think it's time for me to come back out again. More, I want to spend the time with him. I spent last New Years at his apartment, alone, while he ran out to parties and stayed out all night. I really want to be able to just turn around and pounce on someone when the ball drops. :) Not in a particularly dirty way, just in a "hey, it's new years! hug me!" sort of way.
But enough about all of that. I'm going to get back to those previously mentioned plans for day. Ciao.
