Well, here's a bit of an update recently.
1. THE SEMESTER IS OVER!! YIPPEE! One more left to go! During finals, I noticed that there is no place that at any given time is truly a good, quiet study space. Even places designated as "quiet study rooms" or "library" are loud! And then people wonder why I study better at home!
2. A week or two ago I watched a Snoopy Christmas special that I had never seen before! ::gasp!:: It was I Want a Dog for Christmas and stars Lucy and Linus's younger brother Rerun. It's so cute! It made me all warm and fuzzy inside! I adore Snoopy (in case you all have yet to notice!). And I discovered that there was a brother of his that I didn't know about! His brother's are Spike (my favorite), Olaf, Andy, and Marbles (the one I didn't know about!) and he has a sister, Belle. So cute! :0)
3. For those of you who may not be aware, my aunt (dad's sis from Boston) FINALLY decided to come spend Christmas with us, and she is bringing a friend of hers and my dad's from their childhood days. I am picking my aunt up tomorrow night at MIA and Judy (the friend) arrives on Christmas Eve. I am excited! And I took off Monday and Tuesday from work for a nice 5 day weekend. w00t!
4. Tonight I dusted and thoroughly vacuumed my room. It is amazing how much dust one room can hold! I think it has been at least a year since I last dusted. Boy, I was sneezing up a storm! I seriously felt like I had a cold. But now my room is clean and organized. Maybe I should take a picture for those of you who have never seen it this way...
5. Harry Potter 6 is now available to pre-order through Barnes & Noble and Borders (and probably every other bookstore). It comes out in July! YAY! My new boss, Stacy, pre-ordered it for the both of us so that we don't have to pay shipping, receive it on the day it is released, and don't have to wait in horrendous lines to get the book.
6. Lots of stuff going on at work, but mostly been resolved and all is good. So I'll spare you the complaining/whining. However, here's some news for you - I FINALLY have a permanent "home"! As of Monday I now have my very own cubicle! Squee!! I know, not the most exciting news, but considering the space I have been working at over the last few months, it is something to be excited about.
Well, I'm off to bed as I will have quite a long day tomorrow. In case I don't get to post it later, Merry Xmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Kwanzaa, and Merry whatever other damn holiday exists! :0)
