CHRISTMAS TO THE FACE FGSFDS
18 years ago
General
Sorry I haven't shown signs of life in a while, I've been beaten repeatedly about the head with, in quick succession:
1. Finals
2. Relationship Drama
3. Air Travel
4. Family Drama
5. Housework/Repair Work
6. More Relationship Drama
7. Decorating for Xmas
8. More Family Drama
9. Xmas Shopping
10. A Christmas Tree (DURING Relationship Drama)
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, I took a real, live (well, I guess it was technically dead since it was cut down) Christmas tree to the face last week. Luckily it was sideways, so instead of the pointy end or the trunk I got a buncha branches, and I managed to block most of the impact with my arms, but since it was at face level I'm counting it as a face.
Those of you who know about dearest Thomas (I'm guessing that illustrious group includes...well, just you, Rachel :D) will remember the rather un-me-like episode just before break during which I ran from the dorm into the snow in naught but pajamas and socks in order to confess my feelings to him just before he left for home. How very CW Drama Series of me. Anyway, we've had successive phone conversations since then, the last of which took place while I was putting the lights and such on the tree. Distracted, I didn't realize I'd hooked my headset cord onto a branch, so when I hopped off the chair I was using to put the star on top of the tree, the tree followed me.
Luckily the only things injured were my headset (the cord pulled out of the earpiece) and my pride. I've got some nice scratches on my arms, though.
Anyway, on to the important stuff: PRESENTS, Y'ALL! Since I'm broke as a very, VERY broke thing (insert Windows Vista joke here), I'll be taking the cheap route and giving out FREE ART. That's right, for the holidays you get a FREE (you pay postage, which is, like, $3.00 or something) piece of art from me, and not even just a sketch, but inked lines! If I know you in real life, you get color, but the first 20 people to comment on this get a free lineart piece, as many characters and whatever situations you want! It has to be able to fit on one piece of computer paper, though.
Merry freakin' Christmas, and don't have relationship drama near the tree. It's dangerous. (Don't have it in the kitchen, either. Too many sharp things in easy reach.)
