my age is showing in my texts, apparently.
me: Happy birthday, stinker! I hope this morning & the snow weren't too rough on you. And cheers, if you end up going out tonight woohoooo
bro: This Michelle?
me: HAHA did the "stinker" give it away?
bro: No, its ur perfect sentence making
my christmas was seriously wonderful; i spent it exactly where i wanted to be, with the people i wanted to be with, at exactly the time i wanted to be there. shit gets simple after a few years of figuring myself out, and it was as simple as that. saw my mom's family; saw my dad's family; saw my brother's kid; saw my sister. faces were happy, kids ripped open presents, christmas carols were caroled, etc.
thanks to everyone who thought of me on my birthday, who wished me well, who sent me cards and v-gifts -- i was not expecting any of that, and it truly made my day that much more amazing, and gave me so much more to be grateful for.
hats off to
painted_pain, who crocheted me this VERY FUCKING RAD HEADBAND WHICH I REFUSE TO TAKE OFF ---
--- IT IS PRETTY MUCH THE GREATEST THING I HAVE EVER OWNED. it is red and warm and comfy and geeky and exactly the type of thing i will legit wear all winter. so thank you, claire, again, for such a lovely gift!
another extremely important gift i got this year was from male bff, who got into spn with me after i gave up trying HAHA, ain't it the truth. he works in a vinyl shop and printed me a three-foot tall canvas of my favorite jensen ackles photo, which he surreptitiously got me to disclose, and thus we have
what do i even do with it. srsly. it's pretty much the greatest thing i have ever seen, and yet also, one of the creepiest. but bff was so proud of himself! and so it stays. i plan on carrying it from room to room, and propping it up in my direct line of sight, as a periodic break into fantasy world. constant source of inspiration?!
also, for funsies --
my nephew. he continues to grow like a little weed, and be the man, and the light of our lives, and shit. he's still on some contraptions, and i'm excited for him to be off them, so i can steal him and show him off and squeeze him until he explodes into a fireball or grows a unicorn horn or shits rainbows or something else COMPLETELY AWESOME.
things i dnw currently:
thing one: i am sick. at least it waited until after the holidays?
thing two: i need 4 new tires before inspection, which is december lols. what the fuck?
thing three: no detail necessary but things with roommate are awkward, and it is a bummer.
thing four: i sort of forgot that, with signing up for
j2_everafter, and claiming a prompt, it means i have to, you know, write a draft. huh.
thing five: i need a second job, and i have been putting it off, but, see thing two, and ask, MICHELLE? WHY SO SLOW? WHY FORTO ARE YOU RUINING YOUR LIFE?
overall things are very good, and the aforementioned complaints are minor, and easily replaced by awesome things like NEW FRIENDS, and A FUCKING SWEET JOB, and MY AMAZING CLIENTS, and AN OLIVE GARDEN OPENING 2 MINUTES' WALK FROM MY HOUSE [which means WINE AND SALAD AND BREAD AND PASTA E FAGIOLI]. and this song, which a new friend gave me, and i can't stop, it makes my life a better place to be, legit, for serious, for cereal, no joke. i love it. i love it. i love it. my heart exploding words. listen, enjoy, smile!

eta! i did this silly voice meme that's going around. i am sorry for nonsensical ramble and anything that doesn't make sense, as i was doing this i said to myself, possibly i should have thought of the answers beforehand. BUT I AM FUZZY AND SICK. so this happened. also, audacity skips on me for whatever reason. so that's what that jump is, here and there. NERD.
also plz to be noting: no boston accent! i call that a win.
