I found the cookies - yes, they were left behind yesterday. :P

I appear to have cut my lip. o.O

I spent last night finishing up gifts and watching the Gemini Awards. I'm surprised that Corner Gas didn't win a single award. Slings and Arrows and Human Cargo both won a couple of Geminis. Trailer Park Boys won Best Comedy Program.

I almost feel as if they were voting more for internationally-successful programs. But I haven't kept my hand on the pulse of television production, so to speak, so I really shouldn't guess. But I figured that Corner Gas would win something. (There was a quote, and I really should find the source, but it was something to the effect of "The Voting Committee should be 'tested' if Corner Gas doesn't win.")

I also unpacked the little tree that my Mom got me, and well, it looks... kinda like that tree that Charlie Brown got. I'm going to try my hand at it again and see what I can do in making the tree look full, but really, it's only for me... the wreath and garland my Mom got me was enough.

A recent survey discovered that women prefer fake trees (because they are easier to take care of / no maintenance) and men prefer real trees (for the scent, and the difficulty of setting up fake trees). It seems to be reversed for my family. my Mom loves real trees. Our entire family has always liked real trees, too. I'd love to have a small 2-ft tree on my table or something. And I'd try to plant it afterwards, too. ^_^

Ok, I can kinda understand having clothing from a video game (a lot of characters look very cool, and RE4 has some awesome-looking graphics), but who decided that "toilet" should adorn the gloves?

Making another Chili. This time it's "Firehouse Chili", and it's got a LOT. OF. CHILI POWDER. I'm afraid this is gonna be one hot momma.

It has to simmer for 2 hours, though, so I'm having an alternative dinner instead.

There were carolers in the hallway at work today, because the building management treated us to breakfast. :D They were all neat in their 1930's-50's garb, but I couldn't help but smile when they went into an acapella rendition of Jingle Bell Rock. :D

...and all day I've had Muppets Christmas Specials running in my head. ^_^ I absolutely adore the Muppet Family Christmas (where they storm Grandma Fozzie's place) and the Muppet Christmas Carol (ey ey ey, light the lamp, not the rat, light the LAMP not the RAT)

And it was gonna make a comeback eventually...

You are Badgers. Insane. Odd. No one knows why you are there, but somehow the world wouldn't be quite as wonderful without you.
