I am at work and I am sick. It's just a head cold, but ...
I feel ick-tastic enough that I cancelled my lunch plans for today [rather, put them off until tomorrow] and have been whining all day about something other than not being able to play WoW or get on the Webkinz website because every 8-year old girl in the civilized world got new pets yesterday. :p
I had a lovely Christmas and mostly enjoyed staying home and playing with my kids. I did get silly presents, but things that I totally wanted.
I was too excited to unwrap "
Vegan with a Vengance" so I can start cooking [when I feel like eating and when my head cooperates enough that I can taste things]. A and I have already picked out the Ginger Macadamia Coconut Carrot Cake as the first thing to try. Note that sheila does NOT eat carrot cake, but that one sounds like it might work... It just might. Also FROM SCRATCH falafel... droooooooooooool :)
The electric tea kettle is coming to work for the tea that won't require a stroll to the hospital.
The reason I need [NEED] to get on the Webkinz website is because I also got a
bulldog Webkinz which I have named Buko [after Charles Bukowski, my current literary obsession] and I wanted to... well, you probably don't need to know.
There were CDs that are more embarassing than the Webkinz [
1,
2,
3]. But that I am enjoying the HELL out of.
There are movies that I LOVE.
The Fountain,
Marie Antionette,
Snakes on a Plane, and
Fur.
And :) One of
these... If you've known me for long, you understand my unnatural love for all that is John Riggins [even considering the fro and the mohawk and - what was probably the most unforgivable - the Jets uniform]. Back in college, I had a knockoff homemade Riggins jersey, but now... I have stitched on numbers. Squee.
I'm spoiled.
[And I have a Blood Elf huntress, but shhhh.. I think my geek is showing.]
