Mary Christmas

Well, hello there, little girl! And what would you like for Christmas? Man, if I had a nickel for everytime someone asked me that...

But seriously, Christmas is almost upon us! They're not joking when they say it's the "most wonderful time of the year." Unfortunately, I still have to work mornings this week, so I'm getting up at the crack of dawn to work 8 to 12 so far this week. Oh well, just two more days of having to get up. I get off Friday, Dec. 23 and am off all next week and then back to the grind on Monday, Jan. 2. Not a terribly long break, but at least I don't work retail!

Our computer is in the shop, so I'm writing from my work computer (hope I don't get caught...as I sneak a glance over my shoulder and listen for footsteps approaching). I probably won't be able to post much more this week or next week at all. However, Derek and I hope to get cable internet (SBC dial-up JUUUUUUST wasn't working out), so maybe I will be able to post more in the Spring semester. I know you all just love to read about my life!

Well, all my Christmas shopping is done, our tree is up, and we even have a little wreath on our front door (courtesy of a lady in my office, who gave them to everyone). I only have to work a half-day until Thursday, and I've been shopping twice in the last three days with Derek's mother. I am so in the holiday spirit!

Until next time, everyone, have a great Christmas break and a very mary christmas!

PS--yes, it is a pun on my name, I'm not stupid.
