This is what happens when I can't focus

So.... I'm trying as hard as possible to study for my Kinesiology final, and all the words are rolling around in my brain trying to drive me insane as quickly as possible, so to drive some words out of my brain, I will post them here (after finishing this, not nearly as many words came out as I expected. I guess I'll just have to go hide out in a deep quiet corner of the library (HA! If there is such a thing during finals week) and get them all straightened out instead of having them come out here)

Oh, and a pretty picture, because it is sparkly!

So,The Boy and I discussed getting a Christmas tree. Well... the laziness* won and we only decorated our windows, and duct taped our Christmas lights to our mantle in the shape of a tree. The only reason I managed to decorate the windows is because the new neighbors across the street went balls-out on decorating their house and I felt guilted** into decorating...

Sadly, the duct tape tree didn't last long. Only about an hour. Now it is a lovely clump of lights piled on top of our TV fireplace. Meh, at least the stockings are still hanging.  :)   (BTW, we were playing video games when the first clump fell and it scared the crap out of me! After the first few 'branches' fell, it turned into, "Oh, there goes more... and more...," and "...and more, ok, well, whatever...")

Oh, and some fabulous news.... I got an A- in my Biomechanics "Vectors From Hell" class.  I'm so happy!

* Well, that and we are leaving Christmas Eve to drive to La-La land to visit The Boy's family for the holidays

**Ahhhh, the magical power of guilt. Hahahahahahhahahaa
