days of old hang sign

alenxa_classicAs of today, I am officially unemployed. Considering the alternatives, this doesn't make me too unhappy. We'll be fine for a while on the PTO cashout I deposited yesterday. *boggles*
We managed to miss all the toasting and ball-dropping and other such nonsense by virtue of being in a movie theater at midnight, watching Sweeney Todd. Yes, we are the kind of people who do the midnight kiss while people are getting killed on-screen. We also enjoy singing along to Barenaked Ladies in empty outdoor malls at 12:20-something in the morning.
Sometime soon, we need to conduct a serious survey of gingerbread lattes available in the area. We've already determined that Coffee Bean's is far superior to Starbucks'; last night we learned that Peet's also has one that we have not yet sampled. (I also learned that "Hey There Delilah" is not that guy's only single, which is pretty pathetic information but at least helped make sure that finding out Halo is now canon wasn't the first thing I learned in 2008. Wonder if Jack and Adrian followed up on their threats of long serious talks.)
Today I need to finish the scarf for my aunt that I started last night, bag up a ton of newspapers we haven't been reading, and eat nothing but vegetables. New Year's parties are not good for the hips.
Pretty happy so far. Let's see how this goes.
