I haven't even so much as looked at LJ since my last post. That is unusual for me, even when I'm in a rut and don't want to post I still read it for entertainment. But I just haven't wanted to do it. But here I am today.
I haven't had much going on, nothing very eventful to talk about. My mom is having surgery tomorrow so I've been mentally focused on that. Work is finally calming down and I've been able to do a lot of the things I didn't have time to accomplish in he last several weeks.
There were a couple of things that I wanted to treat myself to after Christmas. I had a light bulb moment when I realized that no one will buy me these things if I don't ask for them. But I just feel like a burden having a wish list or offering suggestions. I know, it's such backwards thinking but I can't help it.
I've always had really luxurious bedding. Bedding accessories, I guess. Feather beds and huge fluffy down comforters, body pillows... the one thing I wanted to treat myself to with a little Christmas money was a new down-alternative comforter. A really huge glorious monster of a comforter. The one I have now has no cover (I like that because it stays cool to the touch all night) but isn't white anymore, it's kind of beige. Haha. And I've had it for five years now, so it's not as fluffy as it was and it only covers a Full and we have a King. Not that the size of it matters because at night I'm the only one that sleeps with it, but still... if I'm paying for the upgrade I may as well get what I want.
Well, that went down the drain. I quickly became obsessed with the idea of having a juicer. I've always kind of wished I had one, but never enough to consider buying one. I decided that was more important in haste and purchased one after researching model reviews online.
So that was my present to myself. Every time I use it I end up saying something crazy like "Ican'tstandhowmuchIlovethisfuckingthing!!" and eventually I'm sure I'll calm down and get over it.
But that's it. I'm not finding anything thrilling to say. I have the day off though and I am going to go enjoy it.
