My head is buzzing with the sound of screaming infants, reunited relatives, bitchy mothers, and south Louisiana ebonics.
Needless to say, my head hurts.
Yesterday was Thanksgiving. Casey and I ventured to Monroe to go to my family gathering and of course, I ate until my stomach felt like it was going to explode. Then we went to Casey's moms and I ate even more. It's so strange for me to have to attend more than one Thanksgiving gathering. I've only had to go to one my entire life, and now that Casey and I are a package deal I have to go to his family's too. Weird. I'm so used to eating until I burst then going home and napping. Not this year...or I guess last year too.
But anyway, I think we are going to start out Christmas shopping today. Unlike the millions of people that will brave the crowds all over this country to get good deals...I would much rather pay the few more dollars to not have to deal with the hustle and bustle. I can't stand being rushed while I shop. I like to take my time and really analyze what I want. So, I'm doing most of my shopping online.
One thing I know for sure that I'm incredibly excited about...I'm getting my very own Christmas tree! My very own. I'm so excited.
I freaking love Christmas! Everything about it, the smells, the spirits, the parties, the food...oh, and the gifts! Anywho, I think I'll pretend to do some work now. Until later.
Yours always.
