I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

So I saw The Boy I mentioned in my last post again (he was on his way to work; I was just heading back to my cabin after work) and he hugged me and because I am apparently twelve years old it made my flipping day. I am SO making this happen. I just need him to be on a shift where he's done working at midnight instead of just starting.

Just thought I'd share.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Go zuisa with the making-it-happen! I'm not certain in which direction to send the vibes, but they're out there.

So much ((())), msbelle.

Random thought while decorating the tree: Santa Claus - totally a Hufflepuff. Though it's possible that the actual St. Nicholas was a Ravenclaw.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh ugh, msbelle. Sorry.

I have mini-meatloves and apple crisp in the oven. Success!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Im so sorry, msbelle.

I have actually decorated somewhat today. I've put up my grandmother's old creche, and the balsam-and-whatever centerpiece I ordered through the neighbor kid's fundraiser turned out to be unexpectedly lovely.

Speaking of neighbors, my next-door neighbor was mulching his leaves, and as I was leaving to run a quick errand, he offered to mulch up mine, since it would only take him ten minutes. I love my neighborhood.

Oh! And in going through my bags from Target, I see that I did resist the Disney stickers and got the cute animals instead. Phew!

Floors are clean. Postponing lights until I can get some hangers tomorrow.

BTW, TJs has speculoos now. Cheaper than the Biscoff at Giant, but not sure how it compares to F&E, pricewise of the brand name tastewise.

Discovered I didn't get the tights I meant to at Target. But looking at the receipt, they never made it out of the cart. Oh well, I forgot to get a gift card for my neighbor, too, so I will be going back up there tomorrow. I need to find out if her favorite wine store does gift certs.

I don't remember anybody taking out Aquaman by throwing a clam at his head.

No, he can be taken down by too much exposure to AIR.

Because books.

I'm sorry, msbelle. That's really hard.

In other news, slumber parties with six little girls? Not for the faint of heart. I keep reminding myself I don't want to go to prison for stabbinating the bossiest, whiniest, loudest, most spoiled of them all.
