The Tree The Tree

The time has come…

The Christmas tree is up.

And one cat, Lele loves it…and by that I mean he’s already sat under it and given his approval.

Midna refuses to go downstairs…too much excitement.

Anybut, here’s a pic:

Yay. Holidays. The next step is cookies…but those’ll have to wait until later.

Friendsgiving

Yesterday I had a delicious dinner with friends.

I got to meet an adorable French Bulldog names Stitch who is (in my eyes) Instagram famous…but mostly the cutest little puppy.

You can see pictures of this adorable puppy at @sincerelystitch.

The food was of course absolutely delicious and I couldn’t move after. Which was good cause we played JackBox games after which require very little movement.

It was a special Friendsgiving since one of my friends had just flown back from Saudi Arabia the DAY BEFORE! He’d been working on a musical there for an Arts festival.

He was very jet lagged but did his best to stay awake through dinner but crashed early. We all definitely understood.

Anybut, it was a fantastic Friendsgiving and now today is the real deal with my family.

Rainy Day

Rain rain go away…

It’s not that I don’t like rainy days….it’s just I hate DRIVING in it. And not because I personally hate driving in the rain…it’s everyone else. Everyone goes insane when it rains in Southern California.

At least the internet is working again…

Power On, WiFi Out

Okay….

There’s apparently been a complication from the work that was done yesterday. I think when they were working on all the power stuff they knocked something loose with the internet.

Cause now we have NO internet.

So, sadly this will be the only post today while we try to figure this out.

Power’s Back

That was an…ordeal…

First off, they told us they were turning the power off at 8:30am. It turned off at 9:45am. Okay. That’s no big deal.

And they were done by 2:30pm instead of the 5pm they told us. Also, okay. No big deal.

What was an ordeal was the cable and internet. My theory is the cable company forgot to turn them back on until about 4pm. Why was this an ordeal?

Well, my father isn’t very calm or impatient when things don’t work when they’re supposed to…wonder where I got THAT from?! Anyways, had to listen to him do that thing men do where they breathe loudly and huff and puff trying to pretend like they know what they’re doing instead of believing not only those around them, but one of those websites (looking at from our phones) that say there’s a blackout in the area.

Bottom line. The actual power outage situation was simple and easy. It was dealing with my parents……..who weren’t even home for all of it.

ANYBUT, I got a lot of reading done. Got halfway through Stephen King’s End of Watch which I’ve been meaning to read for…..four years?

Heads Up

The power is going to be turned off in my area from 8:30 am to around 5pm…

I’m writing this post yesterday just in case I don’t get a chance to write more posts to schedule post for tomorrow…if that makes sense.

I may try to post random pics tomorrow instead cause that’s easier for me to do from my phone.

We’ll see.

Random Food Update

For all the Holiday stuff that’s already out….

The only thing I truly want is the peppermint Starbucks frappuccino….but it’s TOO EARLY FOR THAT! There’s egg nog everywhere, there’s Christmas flavors ice cream, but NO!!

No peppermint frappuccino…..>sigh<

This has been…a SAD…random food update.

I DID IT!!

So after posting about how I can never finish the video game Subnautica…..

I DID IT! I FINISHED IT!!

I sucked it up and went deeper. I ventured to the depths of depths and found the cure to the alien disease and made it off the planet.

I guess I just needed to post about how scared of the deep sea in a video game to overcome that fear and finish the game.

Thank all of you. You were apart of this milestone.

………………I’m gonna go start another game so I can keep collecting copper and acid mushrooms. Again…..not what you think.
