(no subject)

Arkham Horror last night with Cid and Christian (Cid had invited a bunch of other people but we were the only two who actually made it). We battled - and defeated, for now - Shub-Niggurath. Also we ordered Chinese from Food Wall; I ate an entire large pepper steak and accompanying rice, and now I am sad because no leftovers. Note to self: you owe Christian $$ for dinner.

Ellie and I aren't doing Thanksgiving, really. We had leftover chicken noodle soup for lunch (homemade from an entire chicken, so we have lots of it), and she's reheating a roast right now. Our actual celebration is going to be on Saturday at Cameryn's house with a huge chunk of our local friends. Note to self: buy vanilla ice cream, pray it will fit in Cameryn's freezer until dessert.

I mailed the holiday cards yesterday - okay, I mailed the holiday cards to the internet yesterday. I still need to send cards to all the people who don't read my journal, like my relatives and my local friends and my boyfriend's roommates.

Now I will sit around with my hair under a plastic shower cap, feeling grateful for many many things, like purple hair dye and a sister who is intent on teaching me to ride a bike and the people who live inside my computer. ♥

Signs you should perhaps wear earrings more frequently...

(especially considering how many of them I have)

Currently have an earring in backward through my left earlobe - I couldn't get it to go all the way through coming in from the front. (I'll turn it around tomorrow.) Honestly I'm a bit surprised I got it through at all, it's been so long and my earlobe has been so cranky.

Of course now I want more holes poked in me, but I have to wait until I have both cooperative earlobes and money that is not earmarked for Christmas presents for my loved ones.
