So Maybe I Don't Entirely Hate Christmas After All. I'm in a much more festive mood today, possibly because I've been ignoring all the Christmas CDs on my desk in favour of dealing with the raft of Grammy nominations, none of which involve the words "Santa" or "Holly". Plus I have a candy cane, and the possibility of a singalong Messiah. VOLKORNBROT!
Aaaaand there's probably no-one reading at this point who gets the reference. Nevermind.
Candy Is Dessert Too, Right? Today I smell like licorice, courtesy of licorice soap from
starfishchick and Absinthe from BPAL.
Fall under the spell of our Green Fairy! An intoxicating blend containing wormwood essence, light mints, cardamom, anise, hyssop, and the barest hint of lemon.
Whoa, licorice. Which I like, but I'm sure would cause many other people to run screaming from me. Luckily by the time I left the house the anise had faded, and other things had come through, namely the cardamom and something green, possibly the wormwood and hyssop. I like it, but it's fading quickly.
Wednesdays Are The Best Day Of The Week. JJ Abrahms! Why didn't you go through with it? Bah.
::hides from the fangirls::
Nonono, it's not that I don't like Charlie or anything, but I love it when shows are willing to do something completely unexpected and shocking. I still love Lost with all my heart, though.
Where's My Toronto Camouflage? There's some sort of event happening downstairs that involves tables of free food. I was going to go down and see what I could score, but I noticed, as I was leaning over the railing, that everyone was wearing black. I think my brown and jean look would have been highly suspicious. The perils of being a west coast hippie in the big city.
Love Is In The Air, Quite Clearly. Those of you who are posting such wonderful things about the people on your flist, it's really lovely. There isn't nearly enough gratuitous ego-stroking in the world.
Yeah, I Got Nothing. I'd be defriending me right about now, too. :D

That would've been great, because after that you could never ever know what would happen for the whole rest of the series. We would have been permanently off our guards. But I really would have missed Charlie.

Who generally hate the music students, because the music students come in for a year, often don't want to be there, and are as obnoxious about their musical knowledge as only first year music students can be.
Hence the townie death glare. Also the high volume "SHHHHHHHH", and the patronizing explanation of highly unnecessary things.

OH, and hi, btw. I'm at an internet cafe in Miami, where we are doing something-or-other for a day before actually getting going....nothing exciting to report.
