Post call today, and have managed to finish all my pre-Christmas preparations (and also sneak in a teensy2 hour nap on the sofa while Deadliest Catch was on TV).
Have made peppermint bark, in three flavors, no less. Those of you who've been reading for a while know very well that leila82 + cooking = badness. And of course, somehow, I managed to burn my mouth and my hand in the peppermint bark making process. Also I burned a bit of white chocolate (luckily, you can't taste it in the rest of chocolate). I didn't know that chocolate gets so warm so quickly!!
Have also gift wrapped my parents' gifts - well "gift wrapped," really. I happened to mention that I needed some gift bags and such while I was on the phone with my mom, and she flipped out, all "Do you know how many trees people kill with gift wrapping? THINK OF THE TREES!" which, OK, she has a point, but it's not like she normally is worried about trees, you know? Anyway. I'm one of those people who saves nice shopping bags and the tissue paper that comes with them, just in case I might need one someday. Apparently, today was that day. Now, my dad's gift (a bottle of scotch) is in a Limited shopping bag filled with Ann Taylor and New York & Co printed tissue paper.
My Wii is all disconnected and ready to go home, too (I know what my Christmas present is - Rock Band 2 for Wii!!) So tomorrow after lunch will be Rock Band Time! The only sad part about tomorrow is that I still have to work in the morning, and that I'm on call again Saturday.
And now it's bedtime. YAY! |
