nap time sounds good

::sigh:: yeah that pretty much sums up my day right there.
Made the mistake of going home and taking a nap after work. Yeah, totally couldn't sleep most of the night because of it! suckage! But, I did get to watch some NCIS season one so that was nice.

Finished another book in the LA Banks series I'm reading. It's getting more interesting as I go along. Little miffed at the moment though, brought what I thought was the next one in the series with me, turns out it's not next, it's the one after the next one! damnit!

Well, nothing really of interest at the moment, just tired rambling.

Holiday cards and other things on my mind...

So I’ve decided that holiday cards may well be the devil. I truly don’t enjoy holiday cards. Not really sure I even see the point in them, yet every year I buy and them address them and send them on their way. (Ok, almost every year, sometimes I forget about the sending them part! Lol) not like anyone really does anything with them anyway. You get them; you open them, read them, and smile. Then maybe you leave them up around the house somehow for a little while. Then you take them down and either throw them in the trash or pack them away in some box not to be looked again for years. Ugh. Hallmark and their damn cards.
Can you tell I’m working on holiday cards at the moment?? Have most of them finished and put in the mail. Still waiting on addresses for some people so I can get theirs out too. I think next year I may boycott the whole holiday card thing. Although the ones I got this year are totally cute and entertaining! Gotta love shoebox! :o)

Oh my, I met the cutest puppy last night. Travis and I were walking up the front walk to the apt when I guy walked past in front of us with this totally adorable dog! Her name is Tia and she’s precious!! We sat there and talked to the guy who owns her for awhile. We talked about all kinds of dogs. He fosters rescue dogs until they can be adopted. Now that I’m in an apt complex that will let me have pets I’m thinking about doing something like that. I plan to get a dog of my own. But I think I might do the fostering thing too…. Dunno, will have to give it some thought. If not now, totally will happen when I get a house.

::sigh:: Christmas is coming up… and I have no idea what I’m getting for… oh anyone. Well, most people at least. I have my mom and dad covered… assuming I can get them done before xmas comes along. I know what I’m getting Travis… again assuming I can get what I need before xmas. And money is a little tight this year, so that doesn’t help at all. But I’ll figure it out and I’ll make it work. I always do.

Thinking about having some sort of (very small) get together around xmas time. Since no one has seen my new place yet and since I haven’t seen a lot of people since forever ago!!! I’ll have to figure all that out later though. Still need to get everything unpacked and put where it’s supposed to be! Lol. I HATE unpacking!!!
But I love having my new place!!! :o)
Alright, have rambled enough for now. Besides it’s about time to go home!

where to begin?

Where to begin? Hmm… well, I guess I’ll just jump head first into this thing and see how it goes. Life’s been a bit insane lately, but I guess that’s nothing really new. Been working a lot (Although it feels like I never really do anything). Moved recently, but will be damned if I can work up the motivation to unpack everything. ::sigh:: I plan on doing some unpacking tonight and rearranging of some things.
Thanksgiving was great. Travis (the boyfriend) and I spent it with my family. Went and had dinner with my parents. My mom cooked and it was awesome. Then my little brother came up and we all played games and hung out. Friday we went back and hung out with my mom and little bro. It was great fun. Lots of scrabble played! Lol. Sat wasn’t too bad. Spent most of the day just relaxing. Sun was family dinner. So we went back to my parent’s house and ate and played the “Here and now” version of monopoly with my dad. He kicked both our asses!!! Lol

Monday came back to work, although… again, not feeling like I’ve done a whole lot. ::sigh:: but that’s a whole different subject that I really don’t want to get into!

Read an awesome book this weekend.

She's my godmother and a damn good writer if I do say so myself! :o) Her other book is pretty awesome too... http://www.jerismithready.com/books/requiem-for-the-devil/
Ok, done with the promoting for the moment! lol

Am at the moment working on a new series (cause I can't read enough these days apparently) It's by L.A. Banks. It's about a vampire huntress. It's interesting. Not as good as the Anita Blake series by Laurell K. Hamilton, but good nonetheless. I recommend it if you like that kinda of book.

Got Travis to start reading the Anita series, he's only on the first book, but I think he likes it anyway.

Ok, I've rambled enough for the moment.
