So last night was pretty effing epic! Sage got a promotion, the state of the union happened, and I did my taxes! I was positive I'd have to pay this year due to my tax forecast in October, but apparently the settlement pushed me through to a different bracket and I'm getting a refund of 800 bucks. Yay party times! Going to buy the Mara/Deon shoes after work <3

I can't believe I'll be on my way to DC in 2 days *___*

Also, anyone know if smuggling a sandwich/wrap is allowed on planes?

Is it sad I've already started packing for DC trip? xD

I've been thinking a lot about my writing the past six months, and I've come to realize a couple of things. 

( Didn't realize how long this got *__* )

I'll be in DC this time next month!!!! And PA the next day!!! I bought thermal sleepies tonight so I shouldn't turn into a Kolicle XD

Tomorrow is my lovely day off-- going to spend the day commenting on Sage and Angie's yulefics, laundering all my clothes, and making my list of media to consume in 2012. Any book, tv, comic, or movie recs? Trying to hit 50 new books next year and I only have 3 new-to-me books left and an empty netflix queue *__*

The past few days have been equal parts food coma, feelings explosions, and the work fatigue, but I am refusing to focus on the negatives-- this year has held too much of that-- and will instead consider my blessings.

1. I finally tried the Thai food joint I've walked by nearly every day for six years. It was delicious XO
2. My holiday credit card bill was 200 less than I thought it would be.
3. There are approximately a billion amazing Yuletide fics for me to read. :) Expect rec list on Wednesday!
4. The Sherlock movie made me *think* afterwards; pretty good for an action flick
5. In exactly on month, I'll be getting ready to fly out the next morning for DC :)

Just sneak edited another thousand words on my Yuletide (and I think I fixed it, thanks to Sage staring at me incomprehensibly while I babbled incoherently about the show. YAY SAGE)!

… also there might have been epic panic when the internet died just as I was going to post the changes. cannot let recipient & friends see terrible words, will die of shame, all home is lost, DOOM SHALL BEFALL ALL. But then the internet came back and everything was right in the world. Better, in fact, because now I'm browsing the prompt list and really considering jumping in on Yuletide Madness!

Yeah, the Yuletide teeter-totter of hysteria is still in full bloom— I’m clearly back in the giggly delusional stage we were in the past few nights. XD
