oh yes, it was divine. delectable. delicious. delightful.
hmm, so much so it merited an alliteration devoted to its decadence (ok i'll stop!). i ate the christmas tree, the hershey's kiss cookie, and a piece of fudge. then i put it out of my sight, and later i dropped it off at my mom's house. too much temptation-- i don't want to work out THAT much!
tomorrow i have to wake up early for my fitness routine; i have work early in the day. okay... 10 AM is early for me. we also have a christmas potluck for which i will be baking a hawaiian wedding cake. i wish i could just bake all day. to me, cooking is ehhhh. baking is much more fun.
what's not fun: going through holiday receipts.
my wallet barely closes... the ridiculousness of the holidays. don't get me wrong-- i love buying gifts. it's the financial maintenance that drives me bonkers. it would be so dandy not to have that responsibility.
random: i was thinking about the conference i attended the other day; in particular, i was thinking about the e-mail session. i attended this session because i thought we would discuss the formalities of the e-mail and how to improve purposeful writing. i'm quite verbose, and i feel it is conveyed in my e-mails. brief and cogent. that's what i wanted.
but no. it was about grammar. GRAMMAR!!! i felt as if i had an eighth grade flashback. we deliberated over semi-colons, pronouns, misplaced modifiers; there was also a semi-heated debate over whether there should be one/two spaces after a period. i think i about had a heart attack. i suppose it's better to be informed than to go on seeming inept at english grammar. yep, i am a grammar snob. i know i don't know everything there is to know, but i do make efforts to be correct.
