Omigawd, I Made It! I Made it to the end of NaBloPoMo
I’m sorry that my entries have been so lame. It’s been a tiring mo...er, year. I’m going to spend this weekend catching up on my friends’ blogs. Like lots of people, I spent my reading time this month writing. Plus, there was a sick kitty, BlogWorld Expo, Thanksgiving, and attempts to shop online and get some good deals. I still haven’t gotten everything, although I think Leigh-Ann is done. She had to shop early because her family is in Canada. And this year, she’ll be in Canada too. While I’m sad that she’s going to miss my family Xmas Eve (and me!), I’m glad that she’ll finally be able to be with her family. She also got us cool little webcams, so we can see each other when we talk online, plus I can kind of spend Xmas with her family. It’ll be fun to watch the kids running around there - McKenna is 6, Tanner is 4, and Addison (hey, who’s watching Grey’s Anatomy?) will be 10 months old. Just the right ages for lots and lots of excited Xmas noise.
Normally, Leigh-Ann and I open our random presents and stuff from her family on Xmas Day (because they’re a Xmas Day kind of family), but this year we’ll open some stuff from each other on Hanukkah, and the rest of the gifts (like Secret Santa and stuff from our friends) on New Year’s Eve, during our wild yearly tradition of appetizers, standing on our toes or sitting on the counter by the tub and watching the fireworks on the Strip. Then, we go back to the tv and rewind the TiVo, so we can see the close-ups. Not once have we woken up with a New Year’s Day hangover. In fact, not once in my whole life have I had a New Year’s Day hangover. I learned very quickly that I don’t enjoy the morning after feeling, so I think I’ve only had two hangovers in my life - one was in Hawaii when I was 18. The drinking age in Hawaii was 18 then. Oh, the excitement of buying booze. Oh, the joy of spending the night laying on the cool tile in the bathroom, and being hung over at Hanauma Bay. Luckily, it wore off by around noon. I learned my lesson though. It helps that I don’t like the taste of most drinks.
Congratulations, you made it through a month of me posting to be posting. Last year, I think I wrote better entries. I’m afraid to go back and check, just in case I might be disappointed. Leigh-Ann and I did try really hard to finish our NaBloCoMo last December. We had such a cool logo, but alas, it didn’t catch on. Well, if anyone wants to play this year, here’s a logo.
Get it? Perry Como. Ahahaha.
Yay!
