blows in on a week-old ocean breeze

Hey all, I'm back! Whew, that outage was a little longer than I expected it to be, but... between battling work, jet lag, and a mysterious case of food poisoning, I just didn't feel like doing much this past week! But, I'd say I'm basically operating at 100% again, and you know what?

Today was a really good day.

( I am a naive city girl and a weirdo, just keep that in mind )

Heeeey!

Bwaaghgh awesome!! Digimon ornaments! It's sheer genuis, I tell ya! Those make reeeeally good ornaments <3!!!

We still don't have a tree of our own since we'll be going to my parents' house as usual...But sometimes when I stop and think about it, is that really stopping me from decorating, or am I just being lazy? :p I'm pretty sure I'd be the type of person to get a shiny, maybe colorful fake Christmas tree if I ever got one, and I guess I'd be missing out on the "authenticity" or whatnot, but...I don't like messy needles or water buckets or whatever things you have to do for real trees. (Ahh, shame on me! I need some "Charlie Brown Christmas" to set me right, perhaps XD;; ) I'm happy you're so happy about your tree, though ( ... )

Yup yup yup! "Christmas at parents" was always why we never did a tree in the past (despite us having squirreled away... two boxes of ornaments from my folks' house? WTF O_o). Actually, I've never had a real tree before either, but that's what the husb' always had growing up-- and we don't exactly have a lot of storage space for a fake one, so real tree it was! It was actually really easy to set up, but it is definitely sheddy, and throwing it away is going to be an exercise in pain and suffering (seriously-- the needles are ridiculously sharp!!). So perhaps it's the novelty more than anything else, but yes, the excitement of having a real, decorated TREEEEE is still very real for both of us ( ... )

Oh NO! I did not need another data point about goats being lovable (don't listen to my rational side-- yes, yes I did need it XD;). Aah, that is pretty cool-- one of my friends would actually be quite interested to hear about experiences in milking, she really wants to experiment with making her own cheese.

Anyway, yay, glad you enjoyed!! This movie was not exactly well-timed for me to have a lot of free time to talk about it, so I totally understand. And I was sorry to read about the week you've been having-- augh! DX Keep fighting the good fight, and make sure to take care of yourself!
