AHHHHHHHHHHHH! DID YOU KNOW CHRISTMAS IS LIKE 24 DAYS AWAY?!?!?! Let me repeat that, AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!
The good thing is that -most- of my Christmas cards are done. They haven't been sent out yet, but gosh darn it they're done! Dennis' Christmas box is almost complete minus all the fudge I made tonight. And the same goes for the single soldier that I'm "sponsoring." And maybe a few odds and ends but honestly, I've already spent about $50 on each so can't I just call it a day and not send them any more crap until next month?
Haha, oh yeah, I don't think I'll be buying Dennis a Christmas present this year. He called today and told me he spent about $500 on a tv, xbox, and two video games. I about died. That's kind of a lot of money to just go out and spend without saying a word. But I really can't say much since I spent more than I'm willing to admit on Black Friday... Yikes... Tis the season to spend spend spend! (and I'm still not done Christmas shopping! Booooo.)
The good news? I will hopefully be getting on a plane on Monday! Hopefully because it's a military flight (a.k.a. free) and EVERYONE wants to go home for the holidays. Or somewhere other than Germany. Because while Germany is gorgeous in the winter time with all the snow and what not. Not so much fun to drive in, shovel, or be outside in general for very long. I mean, yuuuck! I've heard from several people that this is supposed to be the coldest winter Germany has had in the past 100 years! The past few days we've been in the 20s. And the high for tomorrow? 29. TWENTY FRICKEN NINE! The low? 19. I want to die.
Let me just say that I'll be very excited to be somewhere where I'm not worried about dying every time I have to drive somewhere. Some place where I don't have to worry about 20 degree weather. Somewhere if, by some miracle, I do get snowed in, I won't be alone. Ahhh North Carolina here I come!
