hello, december

so i realize i have failed at blogging lately, so here i am, attempting to redeem myself...

just got back from thanksgiving in pennsylvania - it was a glorious 10-day break from work... which made going back to work today especially hard! after days of lounging and doing as you please, it is rather difficult to once again sit still and take orders, but i guess that's part of the deal

anyway, instead of a boring recap of my trip, i'm going to go with random thoughts:
- i love online shopping. if i never have to set foot in a store again, that would be okay with me. current favorite website: endless.com -- may or may not have ordered another pair of boots... but they were the deal of the day! 50% off, no tax, and overnight delivery? yes please.
- online shopping aside, i did go out for black friday. we hit up walmart at 12:01 am. the best part: i only bought a pair of sheets. granted, they are silk sateen 500 threadcount for $19.88, but really, who goes to walmart at midnight for sheets? tv? yes. sheets? no.
- totally fell off the diet bandwagon over vacation. probably ate a whole stick of butter on thanksgiving. didn't run at all. fail fail fail. despite that minor (major) set-back, i'm back on track. for now at least... until the christmas cookies show their ugly faces...
- witnessed a hit&run today. the car in front of me rear-ended the car in front of it and drove off like a crazy person. they almost hit me while they were trying to change lanes and get-away. so thankful i wasn't the one hit! esp after my little incident 2 months ago...
- i like christmas music just as much as the next person, but i feel like starting to play it on the radio 24/7 ALREADY is a little out-of-control. i was forced to listen to it for 7 hours straight at work today. i think i'm one of those people that can't enjoy it until the week of christmas. 3 weeks away + it still feels like fall + no snow + not doing holidayish things = not ready for jingle bells.

anyway, off to job #2... 10 hours of work a day is really too much
