Brrr…. yep. It’s December alright.
In the last few days I’ve been getting a lot of Christmas things done. Mainly shopping. I hate shopping. Oooh do I hate shopping. I’d go as far as to say I loath it. I absolutly loath shopping. Not so much the act of shopping itself. Mostly the people. If I could have instantanious delivery (or if I didn’t procrastinate quite so much) I’d be all for doing 100% of my shopping online. That would completely eliminate the thousands of people I have to attempt to avoid while trying to purchase gifts.
Speaking of purchasing gifts, sheesh. I’ve spent upwards of $350 on Christmas so far. Eek. Although, I’m almost done. Only a few more people to go. So it’s been about a normal Christmas I guess. Still hurts my wallet though… especially since I have to pay the full rent this month. :-S
I also got out to see a bit of the town, I saw all the Christmas lights down at the Falls. They’re done up very nicely. I was impressed. I also saw the Mill that defeated Sioux Falls Engineers. That was hilarious. Now it’s all knocked up from the wrecking ball. So the top part is gone, and the bottom part is gone, but the middle… he’s still there. To much fun…
In other news… here’s a Christmas bunny.
I love him, his name could be snookums or Mr. Biggles.
You have to pay the whole rent bill? That would hurt, with the large Christmas purchases. I hope Santa leaves you large sums of cash this year.
My dad went slightly nuts with the Tree lights this year, I’ll have to show you.
I said large twice, that sounds funny. Lets replace the second large with ginormous.
I’m glad I have a small family so even buying gifts for everyone I’m still well under $200. Also, the engineers were not from sioux falls. The building was designed by a physics prof from Sioux Falls back in the day.
Blah
