It's been a good week. This will be quick, so I hope
emmaco doesn't mind if I use her format of Happy Things from my week.
- Thanksgiving was lovely. All the food turned out well, and was done at the same time. Yay. The rolls were to die for.
- Although I lost at Scrabble, like always, I didn't disgrace myself. And I redeemed myself a little by not sucking at Trivial Pursuit.
- I got some good bargains on Black Friday.
- A purchase on Ebay is going to make someone extremely happy at Christmas.
- I spent most of the day Saturday combing used bookstores in town, hunting for books for my library. I don't like having to do this on my own time, but I love the used bookstores, so it was ok. I also don't like buying used books for the library--it doesn't do authors, publishing companies, libraries or the students any favors--but with with such a tiny budget this year, I feel like I have no choice.
- It was wonderful having five days off work and spending the time with family.
- Today was so warm that you could go outside in short sleeves.
- Ozzie loves his new flippy cat toy. He's been dashing around like a kitten.
- The movie The Taking of Pelham 123 was actually pretty good.
- I bought a big, red Purse of Awesome.
