the power was turned on this morning at spartacus books. the store looks so beautiful all lit up. so fucking beautiful. it seriously made my day! Amy came by to shop and i was able to briefly see Nico as well when she came to relieve me of my shift. we made plans to have tea tomorrow afternoon. i've missed that girl!

Clarissa and i did some shopping downtown this afternoon. we spent a&b sound gift certificates on two dvds: The Virgin Suicides and Empire Records. we also picked up the two latest issues of X-Men from Golden Age. i cannot wait to go back there on sunday for their supersale!

i gave up on trying to read my entire textbook by wednesday. i am going to read it chapter-by-chapter each week so that i will not overload and bore myself.

i cannot wait to be able to make some decent purchases. they will probably have to wait until the springtime. until then, i have ducttaped the bottom of my shoes and am settling for an answering machine that is older than some of the youth i work with. there will be many other afternoons dedicated to new shoes and pay-as-you-go cell phones.

ok so i sort of left my home, walked a block, and did some boxing day shopping.

i just could not resist picking up the home remedies that escents discontinued when they introduced more synthetics!

so now i'm the proud owner of two bottles of comfrey gel -- one mixed with geranium and tea tree and one mixed with rosemary and lavender, an aroma mist make of chamomile and ylang ylang, a roll-on oil mixed with peppermint and rosemary, and two synergies.

also, i picked up a traveller mug from work.

xmas has come and gone and i survived it.

Clarissa was the perfect holiday companion. on xmas eve, we dressed up in our nicest clothes and went for swiss boca burgers and onion rings at denny's. then we returned home, baked chocolate chip cookies, watched It's a Wonderful Life, and danced around to the Bright Eyes xmas album. in the morning, i visited Emma, Zan, and Braeden, and then went to my mum's with Clarissa. my mum had put together stockings for the two of us and Konstantine. i got some mixing bowls, a spice rack, a collander, and crystal votive holders -- my mum knows me well for getting me kitchen supplies! and Konstantine got a homemade kitty treat kit with a fish shaped cookie cutter and a new food bowl. we watched Elf, ate tons of vegetarian xmas food, and played games with my brother and his wife. it was very sweet.

boxing day is going to be filled with cleaning, studying, and an evening visit to Lili's home. i have ten chapters to read in ten days. the rest of the week will be filled with work, some socializing, and a date on wednesday night.

hopefully i will be able to breathe again in 2007.

other cute additions to this post:

* the wb owns my soul
* Clarissa and i made new characters for our sims game which include the Weiner family from Welcome to the Dollhouse and Chad Michael Murray, who my character is dating
* we just finished watching season one of the gilmore girls *swoon*
* i finished my afghan and it is so comfy and snugglicious
* i hope to have everyone's xmas presents finished for valentine's day

that's all <3!

damn you, 7th heaven christmas episode, for striking me with a lightning bolt of xmas spirit and making me cry.

it is always those xmas specials that get me...

on another note, i am working on square 11 of 12 for my afghan. the plan is to have it finished so that Clarissa and i can snuggle under it on xmas eve while watching cheesy xmas movies and drinking hot cocoa.

thank you so much, devin, for your amazing performances last night!
