I love this time of year, and I love you too. :)

Well, I've given notice. In two weeks I shall be offically homeless. Not for the first time either, fun stuff.
No I haven't posted about it, or even explained it to alot of you, and I don't think I'm going to. I might go into it in detail, but then again I'm awfully tired of the whole situation so I might not. Maybe when it's all settled I will. Although, it will be hard to blog from my brand spanking new stove box under a bridge.
This should be fun. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

I got The Fountainhead today in the mail as a present. I will read it, and then return to you my baffled and shallow thoughts on it.
Sound good? Good.

5. List your five favorite computer and/or game system games.
Oh it beats me, anything horror themed I love.

The conversations I have when I'm bored, and avoiding work.
Saetan SaDiablo: We're gonna have tuna for dinner!
Saetan SaDiablo: I was playing the bum and hangin' in the kitchen
Rhea Rhyolin: Ewwwwwwwww
Rhea Rhyolin: Tuna is gross.
Saetan SaDiablo: Is not, it's good.
Saetan SaDiablo: Fish is gross though.
Rhea Rhyolin: No, it's nasty.
Rhea Rhyolin: Tuna is fish, mook!
Saetan SaDiablo: Is not, it's fake.
Saetan SaDiablo: It's dolphin.
Rhea Rhyolin: ::laugh::
Rhea Rhyolin: It's baby
Saetan SaDiablo: baby dolphin?
Rhea Rhyolin: Baby people!
Rhea Rhyolin: Tuna is baby people!
Saetan SaDiablo: Ew.
Make me get back to work somebody, and do it quickly.

You want a Christmas card from me? Even if you don't celebrate Christmas? Yeah, I knew you did.
Pop me by your address so I can stalk you as l send you one. I have five left, so hurry hurry hurry before they're all gone and you don't get a sappy folded cardboard greeting from yours truly.

We're avoiding the inevitable meeting that slowly approaches this morning at work, so we're doing the Friday Five and talking about ourselves in the plural.
1. Do you enjoy the cold weather and snow for the holidays?
I love snow, I'm not a huge fan of the cold, especially not when I have to drag myself out of bed at 4:30 AM to go walk/jog in it. Snow around Christmas is perfect though, it can snow the day before, melt the day after. Tada, perfection.
2. What is your ideal holiday celebration? How, where, with whom would you celebrate to make things perfect?
Anywhere that's all decorated up, with all the people I love in one spot (actually tolerating each other for once) is my ideal holiday celebration.
3. Do you do have any holiday traditions?
I get my Christmas tree on my birthday, and usually finish decorating then too. Last few years Christmas has been at my house, I suppose that's the new tradition. Always watch the Grinch (cartoon, not the dumb movie) at least 100 times a season, and the holidays haven't started until they play it on T.V. for the first time.
4. Do you do anything to help the needy?
I do what I can when I can, and then daydream that I'm rich and can do so much more.
5. What one gift would you like for yourself?
I want all of my friends in one spot in a cabin in the woods for Christmas. That would be the perfect gift.

I'm taking a break from work to post. Actually, I'm avoiding work by using the excuse that I'm taking a break from work to post. Either way, here I am.
It's not raining today, as much as I love the rain, I am kind of glad for the lull in spittle from above. The reasoning is not because I'm tired of it, but because my living room is slowly turning into an indoor pool. Pretty soon it will be full enough that I can switch on the base board heaters, throw in a gallon or two of chlorine and open it up to the public.
Christ.
The leak, which started a little over a week ago in one spot, has slowly but surely spread itself over a good two foot by two foot area. However, it's not leaking in that entire area, just in certain places that systematically change overnight to miss the saucepans thus ensuring the thorough saturation and ruining of my living room carpet.
If my landlady asks me why I haven't paid rent yet, I am not responsible for the words that come out of my mouth.

Today, as I was walking through the grocery store, I turned the corner and there sat Santa. Decked in his fuzzy white and red suit and settled in a not-so-cozy looking chair next to a table where children were happily decorating gingerbread houses with oozing gooey substances and colorful flecks of sugar.
"There's Santa." I said, shuffling the groceries around in my arms.
"Yep, there's Santa. Why don't you go over and sit on his lap?" She said.
I thought it over. Yes, sitting on Santa's lap would be something I would do. I was after all, wearing a quite flattering pair of belled raindeer antlers. I've got nothing against the man. He's Santa, you've got to love Santa.
"Ho ho ho, you want to sit on my lap? Is that what you said?" Eyeing us walking by, Santa gave another laugh.
"No, I meant she can sit on your lap." She said, gesturing at me with a grin.
"Oh, it's Christmas!" He said, spreding his arms with a really quite naughty glint in his eye. "I think you can both sit on my lap."
Oh yes, Santa. Got to love the man.

Yay! As you can see, I changed the layout for the holidays. This is an older layout I used a couple years ago, but with a few minor changes. Fun stuff!
For those of you wondering, I once again didn't finish NaNoWriMo but I've decided to keep writing on it. When I get it transfered to this computer I'll put a link up so you can read it.
