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?

there's no business like, festivus, iron chef, family fun time, good grief i am a girl
