The New Year
November was great for blogging for me, December not so much. Yeah I got busy, yeah I got lazy. Traveling and visiting got in the way of sitting stationary and anti-socially in front of my computer all the time. It didn’t help at all that I ended up taking a combination of vacation and holidays and haven’t been to the office since December 15. I know, poor me.
I made cookies to give around to people, except for the gingerbread. The Boy is in charge of gingerbread because the smell of molasses makes me yak. We cleaned, a bit. Sorted and packed up gifts to go out to The Boy’s family.
Christmas was great, the bit of it that we’ve done. I am an impatient child and we wait for The Kid to come down and have Christmas with us. It’s way more fun for us all to open gifts together, but I’m really bad at waiting. What’s worse is that I got a Kitchen Aide mixer and I can’t play with it because we’re re-wrapping it. If we didn’t re-wrap gifts from his family The Kid’s pile would take over.
I’d like to take a moment to bitch about how he’s been playing with the PS3 and has already beat one of the games it came with. I made two things of chocolate chip cookie dough dip for a NYE Party, BY HAND. Would have been nice if I had been able to play with my nice new expensive toy. This comment totally went over his head because he was busy with his game.
We’ve been butting heads a lot recently, mainly because I’m cranky and everything annoys me. Probably because I cannot have my Christmas yet. I am not looking forward to being mock surprised at things I’ve already opened. Whine whine whine whine.
Sorry, I know most people are doing their best of 09 posts and resolutions. I generally resolve, and fail, to be less bitchy to people. I’ve pretty much stopped making resolutions.
This time next year I will be entering (hopefully) my last semester of my undergraduate career. Worst case it’ll be my second to last semester. I’m still debating on walking for my graduation. I guess I have a lot of time to really not make a decision and stress about it later.
