Alright, kiddies. This is it. Today is the day I finally finish my Christmas shopping. I, of course, started late this year, but I hope to have everything wrapped up (no pun intented) by 8pm tonight.

I did the majority of my shopping downtown this year, which was a great idea on my part, if I do say so myself. This town has a great downtown shopping district, with lots of small shops full of interesting stuff I can't get at home, or in the malls. I have some ideas of what I need to get, and I'm sure the rest will come to me once I start. At this point, I have $-83 in my bank account, so I will have to be a bit frugal, if not downright miserly, but I guess we'll see who wins out - the ho ho ho, or the humbug.

I'm still not quite sure what is happening over the holidays. Mr. Wonderful isn't sure what he is doing - or is not telling me that he knows - so I don't have any set plans. His.... lack of plans, however, has made things a bit more difficult for me at the homestead. My parents, that is, my father, is adamant that he spent Christmas with us if he is not going home. As for me, it would be nice, but I know him enough not to push anything. It's not worth the hassle.

That aside, I'm excited to see the people I know I'll be seeing over the holidays. Namely, Liser and my sister. Liser just got from out west and has plenty of stories and free time on her hands. My sister will be arriving Christmas eve by bus. I haven't seen her since my surprise visit in October, so it will be nice to reconnect.

I hope to post again before Christmas, but if not, have a sexy holiday.
