we did a show-and-tell at the living room christmas party tonight. it was really fun. i liked it a lot. i brought in my clothes-peg painting because it's only been seen by two people in real life and i wanted to share it with others. i loved how it was a neat way of learning more about each other. we also did a gift exchange in which i won a paper cowboy. i was going to take him to work to hang in my cube, but i've decided instead to hang him up on the outside of my bathroom door. he'll make for a good conversation piece. the irony would be too much for my colleagues. they just wouldn't get that it's funny.

we also watched what would jesus buy? which is a witty and thought-provoking look at consumerism at christmas time. it's really good. i strongly suggest it.



i'm feeling a little socially overworked. i would love a night to recoup and store up new resources, but this week's going to be a busy one too. i'm looking forward to tuesday when i get to chill and bake with melissa for my party on wednesday. hopefully i'll be able to recharge a little so i can fully enjoy my birthday without feeling stressed out.

ooh ooh!! i almost forgot that i bought scattergories today! i'm very excited to play it. i've concluded that i'm a very relational-games person. games that are social and require group interaction. it should be fun to play at my birthday party and over christmas :D

we're half awake in a fake empire.
