THIS NEEDS TO STOP. IT'S NOT EVEN 10am for chrissakes.
It's official...Christmas is here. Not that I've had my head buried under the sand for the last few weeks or anything, it's just that I've been so busy & all of that holiday cheer hadn't really had a chance to sink in yet. I love this time of year, but man...I have to admit, it gets a little stressful the older you get. I've never been in an "office environment" around this time of year and I just think it sucks when you feel obligated to buy gifts for people that you hardly know...I mean the people are nice here and all, but I don't even have that much $$$ to spend on my dearest friends and family this year. But I digress...
Any last minute tips for the Euro-virgin that's leaving for the vacation of my life in 3 days? I've never been on a plane for longer than 3 hours, I've never traveled to another continent and I certainly haven't been in weather colder than the occasional frost on the windshield before the morning commute. I'm excited, but I'm nervous!
ANOTHER box of See's candy just showed up on my desk. Shit.
p.s. Did I tell ya I'm celebrating New Years Eve in AMSTER-DAMN?!?
Happy Holidays, kids.
