Current mood: 
tired
Well, Christmas is over for another year and I'm totally exhausted. Never, ever again and I going to wait until the last minute to shop and decorate. Next year I will NOT be in the poor financial situation I found myself this year. How insane is it that you have to hope for a Christmas bonus from your boss in order to buy any gifts at all? I fared pretty well in the gift department this year. I feel badly that I couldn't have been as generous with my friends. *sigh* Marcus' mother sent a very generous monetary gift this year that helped to begin repaying Marcus for getting my car fixed. Marcus got me a Debbie Mumm calendar, an ice cream maker and a scum buster (he knows how badly I hate scrubbing our shower). Mike and Nina got me The Lord of the Rings book (I've never read it) and a Blazing Saddles dvd. My friend Dave got me a Foxtrot book and The Who's Ultimate Collection cd. He also brought Red Stripe beer to our gathering for me to try. Hooray beer! (It was ok, not a great beer.)
I have a promising prospect for some part-time employment after the first of the year. I don't want to write much and jinx it. If that falls through, I'm sure the placement department at school will help me find something.
I'm not much for making or sticking to New Year's resolutions, but this year I am going to have to get my life more organized. I've let things get so out of control (especially recently) and I'm very tired of living this way. I have less than a year of school left and I don't want to be this out of control then. I haven't filed any bills since we moved here (they're in a huge box), my craft room is a disaster, my plants are dying, my car is a disaster area, I can't get into my bedroom closet, I still have pictures I haven't hung and boxes that haven't been unpacked. *sigh* Oh, well. I'd better get out of here and go to work.
