Music Pimping

Have meant to recommend this for awhile: "Free Bird" by Rory + Joey.

I can't stand "Free Bird". But their version is so nostalgic and sad, in that country way that for some reason that I like. Sort of an Alison Krauss kind of melancholy.

Now back to peeling potatoes.

Christmas

Well, it's Christmas Eve and my Christmas is done. Due to crazy scheduling, family Christmas was Dec. 13 and tonight was spent with grandparents. (My other grandmother I'm seeing tomorrow, but that side of the family we got to agree to no gifts. People were traveling in from out of state, and that costs enough as it is.)

So what all did I get? Well, I got some really bizarre yet funny gifts, some things I had asked for, some money, and the usual gifts that you wonder what they were thinking, but hey, there's a use for it somewhere.

Sister (and C. and kids): Got me a book I'd asked for (Women's Murder Club series), a food chopper (technically, I'd asked for a food processor, but hey, it works)

Mom and Dad: A Dale Earnhardt Jr. wireless mouse (the AMP car even!), a Junior 88 ornament for my tree (that I totally didn't put up this year)

Aunt and Uncle: This wacky ass gel candle that has a two Junior cars in it (a Bud car and an AMP car) and OMG IT'S SO RANDOMLY FUNNY

Grandparents: A long sleeved workout shirt (yeah, I don't know why, but at least it's green), a food processor OMG finally!!!!

Let it be noted, I've been asking for a food processor for five years. Do you know how much fun I can have with that thing? It slices! It dices! It minces! It makes julianne fries!

Oh, and my sister got engaged.

Why am I watching a History channel special on monster spiders? Why? WHY!?!?!

The dog has already run from the room due to my squealing.
