Christmas is over. I spent a lot of money on gifts. I’ll make up for it by not eating or buying anything for the next few months. I think it should work out well … I need to lose some pounds. I got some wonderful gifts for Christmas. I received a lot of comfortable pants to sleep in / go outside in. I love cutesy pajama pants, but I also like to wear my comfortable clothes to actual places and not look like I’m wearing pajamas. Perhaps that is rather unsexy of me, but I like to be comfortable. My grandma bought me plenty of nice new crisp sweaters that I can wear to keep myself warm … and are nice enough to wear to work. My mother made me a beautiful glittery scarf out of yarn and she also bought me a magic scarf just in case I didn’t like hers. My grandma gave me bracelets and a pretty emerald ring. I also got a new purse and a personalized throw blanket for my couch. My mom bought me a My Little Pony collectible figurine since I guess I like My Little Ponies. I guess I do now!! I got real diamond earrings (wooh!) and trouser socks for work. And some awesome stuff from Victoria’s Secret.
Christmas wasn’t too eventful this year. There was lots of alcohol and drinking – not by me, but everyone was merry. My uncle was especially drunk on Christmas Eve so there was some entertainment. On the topic of alcohol … my mom and I went into the big Liquor store at Waterworks in Fox Chapel to buy some drinking stuff for Christmas Day. On the way in I beeped when I went through the shoplifting detector. Nobody said anything. However, on the way out I was asked to come back in the store. I had to go through without my purse … then without my coat, and I still beeped!! The one guy was like “well we’ll have to frisk her”. God, I hope he was just joking … I was about to cry. Then they just let me go. Why do I have to beep?? I had nothing on but my regular khaki pants and a navy blue sweater. I was wearing no earrings, bracelets, or rings …. nothing! My dad’s theory is that I was abducted by aliens and now there is a shoplifting magnetic strip inside of me somewhere. Aghh!!! I am going crazy about this problem. It is really embarrassing. At least I was just with my mom and she knows I’m not a thief.
Anyways, I’ve got a lot to do. I have to check-in with my stupid job and do some things … I’ve got to buy some groceries, try to make a pie, and do probably 10 loads of laundry. I hate the laundromat, it is far away. I also want to go to the mall and use my gift-card while stuff is still on sale. I want to buy some fancy bed sheets. Not that I sleep in my bed or anything, but I might start sleeping in it again sometime soon.
