This has been a lot harder to keep up with than I expected, especially with call (like today). Some days I have a lot I want to type about about and have to keep myself to one post, and other days I struggle to think of something to say that won’t bore everyone to death. [...]
I’m short (5’3″) but I’d be really tall for a hobbit! I get to bum around all day and not really work if I don’t want to. I’d get to go to hobbit parties outside all the time with excellent food and drinks for everyone. I’d get gifts at the parties I go to! It [...]
For those of you who don’t know me as well as my parents, my sisters, and Evan do (consider yourselves lucky, trust me), I am a huge, huge baby when I’m sick. And man am I feeling sick. It all started Saturday evening, the final bit of my vacation, with a slight tickle and dry [...]
When I was on call with Elisa before going on Christmas vacation, she told me about another yarn store in the city called Sealed with a Kiss. It claims to be one of the largest and finest yarn stores in the US, so I think I’ll have to check it out and see how it [...]
Evan and I are down to one packet of Swiss Miss hot cocoa so earlier today, I thought I’d look up Alton Brown’s recipe for some homemade stuff. I found it pretty easily on Food Network’s website and off we went to Homeland to buy the ingredients. An hour and a full shopping cart later, [...]
My sisters and I braved the blustery winds and frightening crowds this morning to go to Westies, an awesome local shoe store that has a buy one, get one free sale every December 26th and 27th. Michelle, the shopaholic of the three, got herself two pairs for the price of one and Anna and I [...]
Instead of waiting until Christmas morning to exchange our gifts, Evan and I did our thing when we got home Christmas Eve (because I’m impatient like that). I got him a couple pens and he got me the version of Nintendogs with a shiba and cymbals for my Rock Band drum set!!! They’re totally awesome! [...]
Moira turned a year old today so we got her a cake! It’s peanut butter flavored with honey, cream cheese, and yogurt icing. The cake itself is heavy as a rock, but she seemed to like it quite a bit. Not as much as she liked the icing though… Tomorrow, she’ll share some of it [...]
I spent a couple hours today playing the guitar and singing on Rock Band 2. Now my left wrist hurts, my right upper arm’s sore, and my throat’s dry. I’m a wimp. I need to prepare for a long day of rockin’ out with my sisters on Christmas though, so I’m trying to warm up [...]
Since my mom’s leaving tomorrow morning to go to Vietnam for 3 weeks, my family had our Christmas dinner and gift exchange tonight. And since we’re all procrastinators, there were a couple presents for each other that hadn’t quite arrived yet (oops…). Mom made some deliciously warm pho for us and then we all moved [...]
Evan’s been writing a little bit more lately and he’s prepared 3 stories to send off this week. I may be a little bit biased, but I think they’re really good. I know I’m not the best writer out there but I’m pretty picky when I’m reading; there are certain authors who are just so [...]
And I didn’t get much of the stuff I had planned done, but I did have a fantastic day. I slept in (til 7am!!!), bummed around, played some video games with Evan, messed with Moira, went out for Indian food, did a little Christmas shopping, and played some more video games before heading out for [...]
Tomorrow’s a day off (finally) so I’m going to take advantage of it. I need to finish a lot of crocheting still, I have a bunch of dictations to do, I need to schedule my last licensing exam, I need to wrap my Christmas gifts, and…I need to play through the new No Doubt songs [...]
Today was the first day in a long time where I was actually busy working the entire time I was at the hospital. I found it very tiring after getting to be a bum for so long, and I find it stressful that my kids are almost all actually sick instead of just in the [...]
On Sunday, my dad pointed out an awesome deal in the Best Buy salespaper for a Sony LCD TV and blu-ray player. He asked if I was free to go with him and I told him I’d love to post-call Tuesday. So, of we went yesterday to Best Buy. What a waste of time. We [...]
