My day!

My day was pretty uneventful. It's rainy, windy, and cold here. If I have to put up with bad weather, it could at least look pretty. It is so windy that the roads, sidewalks, and bike paths are littered with sticks which have fallen from the trees. Sometimes whole branches are on the ground. I know they haven't been there long because they aren't broken up like they'd be if cars had run over them a few times.

I have an office Christmas party coming up on the 10th. There will be alcohol and my boss says that the two stuffy old ladies really know how to party. *giggle* I'll have to bring a present. I'm not sure what to buy that's around $10 that'd be acceptable for a work party. I've been told to bring my spouse and children. *rolls her eyes* I think I'll show up by myself. It's only a few streets over so if I get bored I can head home early. I probably won't drink while I'm there. I would rather my coworkers think nicely of me!

I spent money again today. I realized I had some 50+ dollars in my wallet since my brother paid me in cash for alcohol and for Christmas presents which I bought. So I went out and bought Chinese food for dinner. It's silly, but I spent all day looking forward to this. I am now the temporarily proud owner of lemon chicken, broccoli beef, chicken chow mein, and some steamed rice. I should have enough for several days so the 20 dollars is well spent I think! I've barely put a dent into the food and I had a very large plateful! Some days I just really crave good food that I don't have to cook. Somehow it is hard to put effort into cooking when the only one I'm cooking for is myself.

I'd also like to note that my bathroom is larger than my kitchen.
