Hi, guys! Welcome to a completely random post with no direction or real importance. (Shut it. My posts are typically super important.)
So, I’ve had a dry spell the last few days. Couldn’t think of anything good to write. So I decided to do what all us bloggers do when we don’t know what to say. Make a list!
1. Exercise. I’m doing it. I fell off the wagon for 2 1/2 weeks, starting with Thanksgiving. At first I was just busy, then I thought I needed a little break. Well, I should have known better, because I get a horrible case of inertia when I skip the gym for more than two days. I labeled yesterday No Excuses Monday and forced myself to go after work. I’m glad I did, but man it was hard! I doubt that I got that out of shape from just two weeks off (although the pound and a half of holiday cookies could have done it), so I’m sure it was all mental. In any case, I’m glad I made that first step back!
2. Christmas. Is in just 13 days. (runs screaming from the room because ohmygod I am not ready even a little bit)
Yeah, haven’t really started on any of my DIY gifts yet, unless you count buying three out of five supplies for only one of the gifts, which I do. Because I need to give myself a little delusion to get through the season.
Delusion, and hot chocolate…
with crushed up candycane because I can
3. The Thunder. It’s happening! Can’t write this paragraph without using all exclamation points! AND CAPS! BECAUSE THEY ARE BACK IN MERE DAYS – WITH A PRESEASON GAME AIRING ON THE 20TH AND THE REGULAR SEASON STARTING ON CHRISTMAS DAY! IT’S A CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!!!!!!
Yeah, I’m pretty excited.
It's ON!*
4. Food. Will talk about that in an upcoming post.
5. Cats. Will also talk about them in an upcoming post. Hold onto your pants, because it’s (maybe?) a big one.
Okay, fine, here’s a picture of Ella to tide you over.
I can touch my tongue to my nose. can you? didn't think so. OWNED
Sorry. You can’t get back the 2 minutes it took you to read this. They are mine forever mwahahahaha.

You totally stole my I-don’t-know-what-to-write-about-so-I’ll-just-make-a-list idea, that I was hoping to use an upcoming post. Although, I suppose it isn’t that original of an idea afterall (as you mentioned in the beginning). All my gym/running, blogging, crafting, cleaning and decorating time has been consumed by the holidays this year, so I totally feel your pain on not being ready at all for Christmas. The holidays are kicking my arse!
HA! Yes, the ol’ list is a great fallback. Can’t wait to see you for Book Club today! 🙂
Ugh, the impending Basketball season has me SO looking forward to Christmas day… What a real present, right?! I only really started paying attention to the sport a few years ago while I was going to Rider University. We had a D1 team and one of our players was drafted to the Kings. Then, I went to a Knick’s game and everything sort of fell in to place. Then the lockout came and I wanted to cry. (But I didn’t, because that would be weird.)
That wouldn’t be weird! I cried kind of. Okay, maybe it’s weird. Whatever. Glad to see more readers that are basketball fans! I CAN’T WAIT FOR CHRISTMAS DAY!!!!
