the closing of the yearIt's hard to believe that it's that time of year again. I did not get out many paper cards nor did I do an electronic card here, and I feel kinda bad about it, but I hope everyone understands. You were all in some way in my thoughts, friends and family alike.
Been so busy. Wish I had more time to help get the café closed down. Will spend time on Friday helping to scrub it down (note to self: bring cleaning gloves on Friday).
We don't celebrate Christmas as the Christian religious holiday, but we did spend the day in the company of good friends and great food (I think that the concept of a Morrocan feast for Christmas dinner is one of the best ever had). Being that it fell on Sunday meant I had to work the next day, even though it was dead as a doornail at work. (The people who did call in pretty much unanimously said, "Why are you there today??") We don't do big ticket present items amongst friends, but it was a good gift exchange nonetheless. I think the gifts we gave were well-received. I am still waiting for my new (mega-discounted!) iPod Shuffle to arrive. (Hee!) The leather Palm Zire case I bought for An was clearly designed by people who had never actually seen one in person, and has yet to be returned, possibly next week after things die down. :P
...because this week has been dress rehearsal and last minute craziness, as this weekend is The Barber of Seville with the Eugene Opera, for which An is wardrobe mistress. We will likely get comp tickets (must remember opera glasses this time). All I will be able to think about is Bugs Bunny. Then the yearly cookie party for New Year's. We are going to try to make low carb chocolate chip cookies.
I have been finding some time to get creative, and that's good.
It's frightening to think my 20 year reunion is in 2.5 years. Eeeek. How did I get to be this old?
