This is a boredom post

This is my I don't want to be working today face.

There are a grand total of three people in the office today. It's just a little too quiet. I've done some shopping online (two new pairs of jeans and a jacket), twittered, went on facebook, checked my e-mail, checked the blogs I read, did a little bit of work, and now I'm BORED.

Hope you all had a lovely Christmas. I ate too much but it was worth every last tasty bite. I had Thai food from my favorite Thai place, I had food from the Chateau which has the best bread and toasted raviolis, and I had a home cooked dinner of ham, a roast, rolls, potatoes, green bean casserole and corn. This was not all in one day. I'm not that fat.

I should go to the gym today but I shouldn't drive anymore than needed on my spare tire. This is quite the good excuse not to go to the gym.

I just have to say being single around the holidays is no fun. All my friends are spending the weekend with their boyfriends or girlfriends or fiances and I'm just hanging out by myself being bored.

Ok back to "work"

Merry Christmas

I got a flat tire on Christmas Eve. This proves that I have the worst luck with tires. Say a prayer as I attempt to drive to my uncles on a spare.

I hope everyone has a lovely Christmas with no flat tires.

Holiday thoughts (wow Thanksgiving is next week!)

The holidays are going to be very different this year. My mother moved out of my childhood home and my brother is leaving for boot camp in the beginning of December. We're going out to a restaurant for Thanksgiving which I've never done before. My mother's new place is very small and my aunt and uncle who sometimes host are packing up to move so we don't really have many options.

We're celebrating Christmas before my brother leaves and I'm stuck on what to get him. Anything I get he'll only have a week to enjoy before he leaves. I could just get him some beer and a steak and call it a day. I don't think its hit me yet that he's leaving. It will at some point I'm sure. He's going to miss Christmas, New Years and my birthday. He makes sure any party he's at is fun. My roommate jokes that all he has to do is walk into a party and people start falling on the floor wasted. This stems from an impromptu get together with some friends and my brother and two of my roommates coming home to find all of us lying on the dining room floor in the dark listening to "I write sins not Tragedies" on repeat with bottles everywhere. My brother was still trying to get people to do shots.

Somehow it will be ok. It will be different but being with my family is all that matters.

I would also like to point out that walking through the mall to get to work everyday I am bombarded by Christmas decorations which I think went up right after Halloween. It's not time people! I'm also afraid one of those giant stars hanging around is going to fall on my head.

P.S. If someone wants to get me a GPS for Christmas, that would be awesome.
