Hit my snooze alarm for the twenty-seventh time.
Just don't feel like going to work, I'm gonna call my boss then I'm
Gonna hack and cough and wheeze
Swear I've got some strange disease
What's that little twerp gonna say? Hey hey hey!
I'm calling in sick today!

Thank you, Weird Al.

But I actually am sick. Sore throat, tired, and general cruddiness. I'm hoping...

We went to a co-worker's house for dinner on Saturday. She's Japanese, and made us croquettes and okonomiyaki. Nom nom nom! Oishii desu!

She also has, you know, an actual HOUSE. It makes sense because she's married with two kids and in her 30's (I think. Won't say her actual age.) And this house is amazing. I can't even describe it except to say that...

Last night two of my best friends (who I don't get to hang out with that much any more) came over on short notice. We sang karaoke with the SingStar mic one of them brought and then we played Wii bowling. It was awesome! I just wish we could do it more often.

$4760

That's how much it's going to cost, conservatively, for the boyfriend and I to spend two weeks in Japan.

I made a horrible mistake and started looking at hot spring onsen a couple weeks ago. Now I am obsessed with going back to Japan. I miss it a lot. However, there's nothing for me to do but save up and hope nothing huge and...

We went to Ikea and got a new down comforter and a really nice comforter cover. We're also slowly organizing the bedroom, which it DESPERATELY needs. These are good things.

However, they have the unintended side effect of making me want to stay in bed all day. Coupled with the shit weather and the dark, it's getting really hard to haul my ass out of...

My boyfriend and I got a Wii for Christmas.

His name is Nori. The Wii. Not my boyfriend.

My boyfriend also got me Season One Volume Two of She-Ra on DVD, along with Son of Stitch n' Bitch and a Yoshitaka Amano artbook, and some other stuff.

It was a freakin' awesome Christmas.

Now I'm going to go see if I can bowl a perfect...

Whaaaaah. Cramps suck. Whaaaaaah.

In lighter news, I recently discovered the best seasoning on the PLANET.

BACON SALT.

NOM NOM NOM.

Toast = nom nom nom.

I finally finished all the knitting for my family I needed to get done for the holidays. That's one sweater, one scarf, one pair of fingerless gloves, five pairs of socks, one cabled hat, and one crocheted purse. I feel like I'm only missing the partridge in a pear tree. In addition to knitting for my family, I knit my...

Alas! No new set and no relaxing vacation for us. The short version of the story is: We managed to book our vacation for the week when the Windstorm of the Year blew in. Hotel lost power on Sunday night and didn't get it back. We left there on Tuesday, the first day the roads were clear, and because I-5 was closed due to flooding...
