i think i'm already in it. my boss is gone most this week so i have the place virtually all to myself, and it's warm in my office and it's making me sleepy and i can't wait for thanksgiving so i can eat and be sleepy again.

i'm basically equating holidays = passing the fuck out lol

    i am in total holiday mode! :)


    i *just* finished my xmas shopping saturday, i ordered my cards and i am ready to GO!


    finalized our restuarant plans for thanksgiving today and i am PSYCHED!


    my birthday is my 'unoffical' kick-off to the holiday season, and then i am geared up! so this weekend, it BEGINS! :D


    also, nowadays it helps that with my current employment the holiday season is our slooooowwww, down-time. my other careers, education and retail, holiday seasons were busy, busy! i DO love the bustle of the holidays, but mostly just to ENJOY. hubby and i took the week after thanksgiving off, so really great kick-off.....some relax time, bop around the city, maybe a home project and then, GET OUR TREE! house will be fully decorated inside and out by the 6th and full-out holiday season in my mind!


    i LOVE this time of year!
    :D
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow

    well i feel like a snail on valium i haven't even *started* my xmas shopping yet! :eek: oops haha i'm gonna send my cards out next week during the thanksgiving break....that was an easy deal, since i made them myself lol

    you got a great holiday lineup planned for sure, no better way to kick it off than with a bday for sure! :)

    it's still busy here but at least with my boss gone i can knock out a few projects without interruptions, so it's still quiet. hence why i'm goofing off in here at the same time :p haha

    Funny ths thead is started, I'm on Amazon right now buying like a freak .. it's so great to send things back home to Mass so I don't have to carry it from Cali. Show up on Dec 23 and wrap it all up.

    Got my girl tons of goodies ... I love Christmas. (we haven't even got past Thanksgiving ... where me and my lady are going back to be with my parents ... oh my).


    some Christmas essentials ...

    I am counting down the days until I am home for Christmas :D I can't wait. I have some gifts bought and I am going to decorate my desk soon. I put out a fun little red plate with Hershey Kisses on it to get me started. Although I had two different people say "oh no thank you. Kisses are the worst chocolate ever" :rolleyes: . A simple "no thank you" would have sufficed :p

    Any chance of some holiday cards?? :o
    I already got the ones to put Holden's pic in but would be cool to have some awesome ones for clients. Like, I dunno, put some holiday attire on the guitarista???? ;)

    Oh and yes, I am in holiday mode. Holden and I have a fire roaring in the fireplace and I am thinking about what lights to put outside.
    I love the holidays. :o
    Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
    And I don't feel right when you're gone away
