SO I got a whole List of Goodies that I'm going to get my man. We finally figured out our gift budget. May we say "thank you" to Joe's work for making that budget a bit bigger by giving him a Holiday Bonus?! WOOHOO!
ONLY --I found this REALLY GREAT DEAL on a REALLY expensive gift that he's been wanting (i'm such a tease) and I can only get it online *sigh* and have it shipped. And I don't trust our neighbors or some random stranger to not jack our shit so --I'm having it shipped to Joe's office. Pre-Wrapped and all... I know I can trust him NOT to open it. them. it. them.... muhahahahahaha
Also, we finally figured out what we're doing for New Years. We were either going to A --Order a loaded cheese Pizza and some Chinese food, rent a few movies and play some board games or B --go to the movies before/after pigging out on Chinese food and deal with the crowds and drunken folks on the road....
We chose option A
This weekend we don't have much planned. We're going to do all our grocery shopping tomorrow after work we'd normally do on Saturday afternoon so we can stay at home all day and watch the Harry Potter Marathon on TV.
Next weekend is Joe's holiday party ..... I'm kinda nervous. It's a "casual" affair so thankfully it's not like the one at my work where it's nearly black-tie.
OK! I'm offa here-gonna chat with Joe about what we want to get the brats (if anything besides stockings and small things we got when we got the stockings) for christmas.
It's so funny. We know the animals know nothing about what's going on. Drake, Nilla and Lo-Jack can't help open the presents --but it sure as hell will be fun opening for them and giving them thier stuff!!!
“...So do we pass the ghosts that haunt us later in our lives; they sit undramatically by the roadside like poor beggars, and we see them only from the corners of our eyes, if we see them at all. The idea that they have been waiting there for us rarely if ever crosses our minds. Yet they do wait, and when we have passed, they gather up their bundles of memory and fall in behind, treading in our footsteps and catching up, little by little.”--Stephen King

I love giving people presents they want! I'm not going to lie, it's kind of nice not having to buy a man a Christmas present, although I miss getting them! =)
