Our Advent calendar is filled with tiny chocolate Santas which I've been eating from the feet up and making them scream in pain. Andrew doesn't do this and I can't understand why not.

Sequined blazer from Depop - step number 1 in my Marc Bolen transformation. (Depop is a website of evil even though it's online thrifting - prices lead me to buying too many things, way too many things.)

First world problem of the day: I've made the soup, now I don't want to eat the soup. Maybe I'll change my tune once it's simmered awhile but it could really use a can of diced tomatoes if I think about it.

Went to see DOA and the Nekromantix last night Unfortunately A. had to bow out at the last minute due to eye pain. I was all dressed up in a sequined mini skirt, offensive t-shirt and ginormous boots so I went solo I had fun but it absolutely blows that he so often in too much pain to go out.

Hey Holly - I made a bunch of fermented salsa with those tomatoes you gave us. We're going to try some tonight to see if it kills us. In the event that we are dead due to salsa poisoning I hereby bequeath you my new personally autographed Gary Numan bobble head and the matching Christmas ornament.

Already having a day. Just managed to fling a leftover salad from Olympia Pizza all over the floor. Also managed to break a mug by also flinging said mug out of the cupboard and onto the floor. Then the tea overflowed the pot, but at least it didn't hit the floor.

The kitchen is completely destroyed but all the jam is canned and all the jars sealed.

I've made jam. I canned it in a steam canner. I did absolutely everything out of proper order. The best I can say is that nothing has exploded. Yet.

I've never really liked the Forth of July - it's only redeeming quality is the fact that two of my friends - one childhood and one current, both named Laura's birthdays are today. So Happy Laura's Birthday to you all.

Took the vacuum apart. I've forgotten how to put it back together. You'd think I'd have paid attention to what I was doing but no. Back to Youtube I go.

Went to see The Adicts last night dressed in a mini dress made of one of their t-shirts, fishnets, motorcycle boots and a bowler hat - in the front row where I had to dodge the liberty spikes on the 17 year old girl next to me. I'm 65. Go me.

I know it's Junuary but I'm supposed to go to a party today wearing a fabulous outfit. I think it might be too cold for said outfit. I hate it when function supersedes form.

I have this weird thing that happens where I can't walk, or I walk like a drunken sailor. My acupunturist manages it pretty well, but it started again last week. I also just started a new ADHD med last week (non-stimulant). Talked to my doc and he thinks that may have triggered it. Not good.

I just got an email from my aunt's retirement that as she's moved out of state she will lose her insurance. She hasn't moved. She is in a nursing home in California completely incapacitated.

Saw the Buzzcocks last night. We had to drive to Tacoma but it was worth it. The venue wasn't bad and we met a very cool woman who showed us a different club on the next block. We had fun.

I've made a mess - and roasted cream of cauliflower soup, but mostly a mess.
