Christmas Cookies
It truly is the Holiday season... which means cold weather and lots of good food. Yesterday I ran the gamut at two potlucks/ snack parties and then went out to dinner/ coffee/ cookies. Whoo. Gotta keep looking good in a bikini for another three weeks, that's all. Blar.

Today I came into the office and the math ladies left me a little Christmas present! I was so surprised because generally I'm ignored as not part of the math staff. I don't get roses when they do, I don't get invited to the department luncheons, etc. I think they knew I felt left out so they gave me today what the other staff recieved yesterday- a card with a starbucks gift card and a little tin filled with chocolates. So sweet!

That and being 15 minutes late to Japanese *ahem, blush* made my morning. We got our test back in Japanese and I managed to scrape by an A and still have a low A in the class. No more classes today, just a trip to the gym and then home for a lazy afternoon and a laid back weekend. YAY!

Time to finish up the Xmas shopping and make some returns on gifts I bought at one place and found cheaper at another. I'm notorious for doing that. Sometimes I end up with as many as three copies of the same gift before returning the uneeded ones. Huzzah for getting money BACK.

Alas, Justin's gift came in the mail yesterday and I'm afraid he knows what it is. I told him to avoid picking up a package if we had a note for one... but the package was so small it fit into our mailbox so he couldn't avoid it when he picked up the mail. Blar. I wish I had better gift ideas, I'd feel a little more ingenious.
