Merry Foodmas from Work

Last night, while walking home, I decided that I want a lapdog. Not a yappy one. I can't stand yappy little dogs. But I could see myself with an ittybitty mutt. Honestly, I'd prefer a huge mastiff or wolfhound, but that's just not feasable in an apartment. A chihuahua would fit, though, and wouldn't cost a whole lot to feed.

Hmmm....

Happy foodmas! I got some loot from f00dave: a whole buttload of candles (not my butt, though), two handmade leather braid-holders (I'm currently wearing them as pigtails), some candies, some oranges, a pair of wool mitts with embroidered skulls, and a big wool sweater with a big skull. I feel skullicious today, because I wore it all with my skull hat. Now I'm dying of heat from walking to work as quickly as possible.

I was running late for work, and coincidentally, met gha5t just as I was about to walk into my office building. He gave me the keys to his apartment so I can check in on Pookey the Cat while he and Linda are touring Montreal. It's a good thing he bumped into me, or that would have been a lonely cat.

Not that she's terribly social. She mostly stares at people, and gets offended when you pick her up or pat her. Still, she'd be disappointed if no one gave her treats/catnip every now and then....

snowy_kathryn arrives tonight. f00 and I are driving to Moncton to pick her up. I hope she likes her presents!

You'd Think I'd Learn

Between my VERY sporadic calls, I've been looking at various universities. Simon Fraser University has a lot of classes which appeal to me. But I still haven't paid off my last academic excursion. When f00dave finally gets his PhD, I'm back to school, though. I just don't know which one, or what I'll take. Either way, I want to return part-time. Fulltime studies just aren't worth the extra stress, in my opinion. I'd rather space classes out and give each one my unadulterated attention than spread myself thin over coursework and my extracurricular activities (eg. workouts, dance, writing, art, martial arts, etcetera).

I'm interested in going for an MA or MFA, or maybe delving back into undergraduate studies for fine arts, kinesiology, biology, cultural studies, cryptozoology, communications, crafts, anthropology, religious studies, somatics, psychosexuality, folkloric studies, and classics. So what's a girl with very eclectic interests to do?

Probably stay in school forever and/or read a LOT more books.

It looks like I'll be visiting the dancealicious Sephira and John in Moncton tonight. Hoorah! I haven't seen them in too long.

Oh yes, and in case I haven't already told you, you're invited to my

New Year's Eve Party of Doom!

Yes, this means you.

I Wonder(land)

Out of curiosity, am I the only one here working on Christmas?
