Jumping on the Blog Bandwagon.

I'm new to the blogging world. I anticipate that I'll be welcomed with open arms.

By the way, anyone who feels obliged to contribute to my New Years Eve dress fund, feel free so I can put this little piece of heaven on my unworthy body.

As Frank Sinatra croons on our 101.9 work overhead speakers, I just realized it's Christmas Eve and it doesn't feel like it. Same ol, same ol. What will it take for me to get into the Christmas spirit?
Some Things I've Attempted:
1. Hanging brightly colored glass balls on a 7 foot fake tree.
2. Handmaking a wreath for my front door with my best friend last year. I even paid the ultimate price...I burned the shit out of my hand with a glue gun.
3. Purchasing a two dollar collection of Christmas tunes at Walgreens. Personally I thought it was a good deal.
4. Buying hats. This one's self explanatory. Meanwhile the temperature in San Antonio remains at 65 degrees. Enter me with my hat.
5. Watching Home Alone. I woke up 3 hours later with the menu screen blaring with Kevin's obnoxious scream. Not as cute as it once was.
6. Inserting an IV of Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte into my veins. This was the most dissapointing of all attempts. It was my constant, my back up. I put too much faith into this, which upped the dissapointment meter a notch or two.

None of this helped. I will soon return with a solution.

  1. I love the "I will soon return with a solution", but there is definitely a melancholy tone here, adds to the beauty, conflict, emotion, and introspections of the meaning of the holidays. I like the IV starbucks satire, and the blah blah blah of christmas wreaths, and glass balls, Nice!!
