Ya, it should be interesting. And don't worry, I purposely used bad grammar.

Old video but still pretty good. Saw that a while ago.

For some reason it is a featured clip on YouTube today, I am still amazed by over 200,000,000 views.

I rarely click on youtube stuff....(and havent updated my flashplayer in quite some time so most of them dont work anyways )


I think I have another cold.... I would really appreciate the chance to get well and stay well for a month at least at some point in time (the near future is my preference )....
just another bad day all around.... even had problems with the walgreens not having my prescription (oh you can pick it up at the next one 15 miles away....yeah like NO sorry, they tout themselves as being there when you need them....they are not living up to that for me).

it's a crappy song, but it got loads of exposure so many would listen to it.

I'm sorry to hear that cosy. We used to get my prescription for my allergies at Walgreens and then they decided not to carry it anymore. So we switched over to CVS. Few months later we get a call from Walgreens informing us that they have my prescription again and would love to have our business again. We said we were sure they would but we were going to stay with CVS. Haven't gone back since.

yeah, thought about not using walgreens anylonger---but the cvs is a 25 minute drive away! I have 2 walgreens really close (and yeah neither had it).

well I hope they get it 'moved' over to mine or yeah, I will be going someplace else.

We got lucky, the CVS is RIGHT across the street from the Walgreens. No joke. So dumb, but whatever. Made it easy for us.

Welp, Christmas shopping is done. Presents are all here and just waiting to be wrapped... Damn I hate wrapping...

wrapping...one of the things that my art major actually HELPED me with--I can wrap real good (even strange shaped things and stuffed toys!).
but this year it was almost all boxes--very easy to wrap...a few stuffed toys for my hubby's nieces....nice and easy .....

nap time...my cold is getting the better of me today...just dont feel like doing anything.

I already drink lots of green tea....but I can drink more.


americans celebrate the 25th because santa claus comes on the night of the 24th---so on the morning of the 25th you have gifts that santa left under your tree....(the non-religious version).
the religious version....from wiki:
Quote:

In the early 18th century, scholars began proposing alternative explanations. Isaac Newton argued that the date of Christmas was selected to correspond with the winter solstice, which the Romans called bruma and celebrated on December 25. In 1743, German Protestant Paul Ernst Jablonski argued Christmas was placed on December 25 to correspond with the Roman solar holiday Dies Natalis Solis Invicti and was therefore a "paganization" that debased the true church....The December 25 date may have been selected by the church in Rome in the early 4th century. At this time, a church calendar was created and other holidays were also placed on solar dates...
the churches seems to have always celebrated the 25th....


my family 'celebrated' xmas on whatever date worked for our schedules

I just do it when I'm told it is. Which has always been the 25th. So I don't want to break tradition.

Hope you feel better soon cosy!

It is supposed to snow tomorrow, it is snowing right now and has been all day. But I'm okay with that. A white Christmas is fine by me.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone indeed RR.

I used to like to work on xmas....DOUBLE pay was always nice, worked on new years day too.....my sister had to work last night until 6pm (see works in mortgages as a manager)...she said-'not even the grocery store is open that late today!' and then told me she had plans to clean up a drawer of hers in her desk there-- (oh boy glad she was busy).

nice to see you jumping....time to make the cookies

Funny you should mention cookies, cosy. Because I actually made some yesterday for a christmas eve dinner.

I work for a hospital. I guess that makes you an evil person, pwnd for calling them awful .

Im actually playing GW again because a friend is taking a break and giving me his loot (ectos). When I get home im planning to power trade my butt and max my inventory and storage plats like the good old days.
