As kind of a Christmas gift Jei bought me a penguin and a perfect hot cocoa mug that is also a penguin. He is half the size of me. I’m thinking of selling some of my books and manga on ebay because I’m so strapped for cash and I still have to get Pumpkin his booster shots and renew my tags and registration. Money, money, money. I hate it.
I would really like to be able to order a pizza right now. That sounds good.
I’ve been thinking I wanted to do a video log, but I’m just not sure what to talk about. I’m almost done with my journal from February, so I’m excited about that.
EDIT: I removed all the ramble about vlogs and just made one with all the ramble in it. Coming soon!
I feel much better today. Yesterday was beyond awful, and in fact I can barely remember over five hours of my day. But again, today I felt much better so we had our belated feast. (I can’t believe I forgot to take pictures of the mashed potatoes?!) Check out the wonderful pies, thanks to Sara Lee. Yeah. You’re drooling. (Me too.) Because I got sick I didn’t get to go get a tree or even Christmas lights to put up around my room, but soon.
Remind me to share that funny mp3 and the gifts Jei bought for me today. (Technically yesterday.) You can see more pictures from our belated Thanksgiving here -> FOOD + PEOPLE
Reminder: Sara, call around for cheaper car insurance.
I loved My So-Called Life to death and found the cutest thing on youtube today. It’s like a mix between My So-Called Life and Harriet the Spy, called Quarterlife. Check it out! Spread the word! More episodes of Quarterlife here. The main character reminds me of Mallory.
Well, our power went out this morning and by the time it came back on we couldn’t cook our meal with enough time for Jarren and Nicole to go to work so our dinner plans were ruined. And I have food poisoning. THANKS GRANDMA.
(Today I went to my Grandmother’s to visit. Tomorrow is Jei, Kat, Cole, Jarren, and Rue and I’s Thanksgiving.)
My grandmother’s racist birch tree.
“Are you eating enough?!”
My grandmother calling my mother a bitch right in front of Kat’s face. (After which we promptly left.)
All in all the pros outweighed the cons.
10 quick things I’m thankful for:
The fact that my mother and I will laugh about the smallest things. For hours on end.
Jei and the gentle way he takes care of me. Also the way he rubs his feet against mine in the morning.
Good food. Always thankful for good food.
My home is warm and it’s snowing outside.
My cats sleep on my bed at night cuddling in the middle of Jei and I.
Kat practically lives here.
My house is always clean. And currently smells of pumpkin.
My heart beats. i.e. I can live with my syncope and it has not given me a time limit on living.
I have two excellent roomates and friends.
My hair is finally growing out.
Tomorrow I hope to snag a tree, even though I’m extremely poor, and some Christmas lights for the house and my room. I’m excited.
Sara is a girl who spends her days feeling. She likes acting, photos, instruments, writing, music, and books. I know this because she is me. And on most days I'm her too.
