Five Random Things-Christmas Version

1. I'm ready for Christmas music to be over. I can tolerate the classics, but when I start hearing Mariah Carey's "All I Want For Christmas...Is You" more than three or four times in a day, it has me yearning for Santa to come around a few days early.
Oh, and "Do They Know It's Christmas?" yeah, it doesn't work anymore.

2. My kids have turned Hide 'n Seek into a whole new game. One of them hides their eyes and counts to twenty and the other scampers around 'looking' for a place to hide but ends up standing right behind the counter. So when the counter is done counting, they turn around to immediately find the person they're looking for. Then they both squeal and scream with delight. What fun counting to twenty can be...which leads me to...

3. ...the 20 sheets of drywall I recently purchased. There is no less glamourous home improvement project in this world than hanging, taping, mudding and sanding and sanding and sanding and sanding drywall. Of course, if you'd like to help, please don't hesitate to come over.

4. High-speed internet is a wonderful thing, but I find that despite my new ability to cruise around on-line to new and exciting places, I rarely deviate from my favorites list. Good thing? Bad thing? Only time will tell...

5. I attended my work Christmas party last weekend. It was the first work Christmas party (or any work party for that matter) where alcohol was served. I was left with that weird feeling like, 'is it really ok for me to drink wine with my co-workers and bosses and the owners?' I guess it was because I woke up the next morning with a horrible hangover...just kidding of course...about the hangover...the rest is true...oh, nevermind...Merry Christmas.
