MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

i’m a lil early but…

i hope that santa is good to all of u.  he’s been good to me so far, i’ll be in my in favorite place – CANNOT WAIT!  if i’ve been a really good girl this year, i’ll come home with a fatter/heavier pocket 🙂  

Anyhoo, all of you be safe, be merry, drink plenty sorrel and eat plenty ham…

The Holidays

so it’s that time of year…i used to look forward to Thanksgiving and Christmas – i loved them both (doh mind it’s the WORST season of the year) until MS reared its ugly head and i can’t enjoy cooking for thanksgiving or shopping for Christmas!  For some reason, both holidays are a HUGE deal in Tucker.  We always have a larger than life spread on the table for thanksgiving (u’d swear we grew up celebrating it) and a tree with millions of gifts (most of them for us) under it at Christmas.

well MS has spoiled them both for me.  I can’t stand and cook the dishes i have responsibility for and shopping online is just no fun for me!  and as usual, i am jealous of all the people out there who have no problems…

this year,  i have to find someone’s else’s house to storm for food (no fault of the MS) and we are hopeful that Christmas will find us in Vegas (if that’s not something to look forward to, I don’t know what is) 🙂

Happy Halloween

i love Halloween…it’s the 2nd of 2 American things that i have completely embraced; we don’t do anything for halloween at home!  Every year, i dress in costume and have somewhere to go.  In fact, last was the 1st year since i’ve started dressing up that i didn’t do anything and it was somewhat depressing.  So this year, a friend was throwing a party and i found out about it in Sept (or so) so WOOHOO i get to dress up.  As the time drew nearer, i realized that i wasn’t as excited as i normally get and about 3 weeks before the party, it hit me that:

  1. i really wasn’t that interested in going to the party and 
  2. 75% of the fun is going to Party City (or wherever) to look for the perfect costume (or idea)…shopping online is not so much fun for me

fast forward 1 week prior and all of a sudden, the Halloween Spirit hit me in the gut!  I want to go the party AND i want a costume!

So since i have the cane, i figured i would incorporate it into the costume and go as a lady pimp or something, but the time i was done browsing, i decided on a Viking Princess.  Ah…such a cute/sexy costume right?  WRONG!!!!  the damn thing came and as cute and hot as that model looked in hers, i looked RIDICULOUS in mine; the hat was too shallow, the dress was too big and it wasn’t that nice chocalte-y colour either – it was more of a baby tootoo brown!!!  the best thing in the costume bag were the boot covers!  STEUPSSSSS!!!!!  Of course, because i’d waited till a week prior, it was too late to do anything with the stupid ass thing!  i still have it, in case anyone is in need of a Viking Princess costume

I was pissed!  i still went to the party dressed as “woman with cane” and i had a good time, but i’m not going to fool around again next time 🙂

Anyhoo, Happy Halloween to all!!
