I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Woohoo, got the word from my boss, going home as soon as I can get everything closed up.

I picked up frozen chinese food to eat tonight and tomorrow. I felt like steaming things and nibbling.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that's a good plan.

I have a cold! Not that I had plans before, but now I'm definitely just staying here.

Also collard greens and black-eyed peas, of course.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Low-key NYE here. Going to meet some friends for dinner, and possibly stop in on a gaming party for a little while before returning home and putting the little guy to bed.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

We get to leave at 3:00, which is good, because I just realized I need to go to TJs on the way home, and I know it will be a madhouse.

I think frozen Chinese food is going to be on the shopping list now.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We are staying home and binging Jessica Jones. We started last night and the plan is to finish the whole thing this weekend. I also plan to reorganize all my clothes, which is not fun to do, but it is one of those things that is fun to have done.

I did my NYE food shopping last night. The guy at the deli counter thanked me sincerely for making his life easier when I told him.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I have a cold! Not that I had plans before, but now I'm definitely just staying here.

My sister in cold-having-ness and staying home! Tim's bestie has a NYE party every year, but I am absolutely NOT getting people sick, so I'm staying home. (Bestie's wife is a quadriplegic and if she gets a respiratory infection, she has a VERY hard time coughing junk out of her lungs, so it can turn to pneumonia pretty quickly. So, while I'd feel bad if I got anyone sick, I *really* don't want to get her sick.)

I probably will have New Year's Steve, because my dad got me the first Captain America movie for Christmas (I don't know why I didn't have it before), so I'm going to kick back and watch it while Tim carouses with the bestie.

Punishingly Intricate

We went to a beach bonfire and now we are watching the annual Icelandic satire show. It's on every NYE from 1030 to 1130 and basically everybody watches it. It's hilarious even though we understand very little. And also, clearly, terrible as we'd been led to expect. After we are going up to the big church on the hill to light and watch more fireworks and drink champagne!

I think I'm fighting off a cold. My nieces and my mom were passing terrible things around, but I haven't fully succumbed yet. Granted, my plans tonight have always been to stay home and do nothing but read and watch TV, because I haven't spent much time relaxed at home for the last few months.

I have been out for toilet paper, booze, and some groceries. I'm now in my pajamas with laundry in the washer, and I don't plan to move far from the couch for the rest of the evening.
