It's gorgeous outside. It's bright and sunny and somewhere around 50 degrees. It's been like this forever. How does one possibly get sick in this weather? I'm pretty sure I've overdosed on Vitamin C twice already today, but I can't seem to kick whatever is kicking me in the arse. I have a scratchy throat and just an overall feeling of blah, bleh, bleck, blooey.
On a brighter note, I spent my morning at work re-vamping my myspace profile. I've been all about Moose lately. I really need to get into Dreamweaver and make something a little nicer, but I figured I'd give my basic knowledge of HTML a little workout.
I hope this little bug leaves my system in time for New Years Eve. Fingers are crossed.

No time to Blog.
Must Knit.
Brodie's gift didn't come today. Argh.
I hope I get to go home early.
I might have to brave the mall tonight.
It's cold today.
I wish it would snow already.
I had a Peanut Chew for breakfast.
My mind is only working in one sentence per thought mode.
Back to knitting.

Crunch Time.
It's time for the Christmas stress to begin. It stems from many different things including:
- Not receiving all of Brodie's gifts yet. I ordered from Amazon on the 12th. They said no later than the 22nd. Something tells me that it isn't going to be here by tomorrow. (When I say "something", I mean "tracking".) I mailed them all to my work address, so I won't be here on Saturday. Doh! I have a solution, but I'd rather not have to resort to it.
- I haven't finished all of my knitting. I still have my Godparent's, Brodie's Mom, and both my Grandma's to do. It's not like any of them read this blog, but I'm not telling you what they are until after Christmas. It's still doable...
- Splitting Christmas Eve between my family and Brodie's family. All I have to say is thank goodness the two houses are within 3 miles of each other. There might be a lot of back and fourth. Ugh.
- The dog. What are we going to do with the dog?
- Wrapping. I've wrapped all of Brodie's gifts except the one that hasn't arrived. I just have to do everyone else's.
- I still have to get something for Jen. Hi Jen. I know you're reading this. What do you want?
- I haven't done laundry in three weeks. Really. I'm running low...
- This belly ache. Errr.
On a brighter note. My boss gave me a $100.00 gift card to Nordstrom. Never in my life have I shopped there. I'm excited to go after the holiday's! I'm thinking...Shoes...

This is just hilarious.
Words Women Use:
1.) FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.
2.) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five Minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.
3.) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "fine".
4.) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
5.) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6.) That's Okay: T his is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7.) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or Faint. Just say you're welcome.
8.) Whatever: Is a women's way of saying F@!K YOU!
9.) Don't worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking "what's wrong", for the woman's response refer to # 3.
Good thing Brodie is catching on to woman language. He's cracking the code.
