I am going to bed.
Tomorrow is Christmas, which means I will be getting paid almost $30 per hour (plus holiday pay!) for the eight hours I am at work. And there will be no managers, so I will, as much as possible, SKIP ALL THE CHRISTMAS MUSIC OH DEAR GOD. If I ever meet a Frosty the Snowman, I will stab him with a hot curling iron and watch him die slowly. Tomorrow also means spending time with
cloudlessclimes and eating tiny food and having good times with her and her friends and family. I am looking forward to it!
Tonight the coworker whose girlfriend just broke up with her (and, it turns out, is a CRAZY PERSON) came over for dinner. It was frigging great: she roasted a chicken and brought some wine, and I roasted a bunch of red and gold baby potatoes and cooked some baby carrots, and we watched How I Met Your Mother. When she left, I dithered around and got myself a new layout and icons. And
siryn99 gave me a coupon, so now I have even more icon space to play with, moo ha ha ha! All the icons of Brendon and Spencer I want! And believe me, I want them all. For starters, I give you Maximum Hotness Spencer, Backlit And All Pretty And Such.
Yesterday, I found out that the run of the show I'm working on has been extended by a week. MO MONEY MO GROCERIES, whuttup. After the matinee,
algernon_mouse and
cloudlessclimes and I all met up for Thai and it was...mercy, words on the internet cannot describe how delicious it was. I may never eat at another restaurant, Thai or otherwise, again. I wanted to take a bath in the chicken/mushroom/coconut soup (instead, I ate four tiny bowls of it). I took leftovers to work today and all my coworkers were jealous and I was like, too bad, bitches! This is mine! And I ate it all. It was, for the record, just as good the second day.
This weekend I rented a car, picked up my little brother, and headed home for Christmas. It was basically the perfect blend of family and food and presents and hugging, OH THE HUGGING, and I maybe cried a little when I had to leave. There are plans afoot for me to take some vacation hours in February so I can spend almost a whole week with my mama and papa and also some time with my sister and my best friend. Can it be February now?
...How 'bout now?
