Breaking all the Rules.

Confession: I am NOT going to be able to hold off on Christmas decorations for a whole 'nother week plus. It's just not going to happen. Tonight after work, instead of going to the gym like a good girl, I'm hitting the town in hopes of finding some sweet deals on Christmas decor. In fact, when I get home this afternoon I will have a Target shipment containing the cutest stocking hangers.

This guy:

And this guy:

Upon looking back for pictures, I'm not sure I made the best decisions but they're cute, if only for Christmas 2010.

I'm a large fan of cranberries and really want to decorate with them. I don't think I like eating them but I love they way they look and how cranberry scented goodness makes my house smell!

Basically, tonight might be the end of my pumpkin happiness. Either they are gone or my entire guest room is full of Christmas decor!! AHHH!

Tis' the Season, dammit. I. Can't. Wait.

Too Much...

I've been in a rut lately. I got some news today that will hopefully tied me over for a month or so until better opportunities present themselves. At least that is what I will tell myself until then.

I think this is just a weird time. It is still sort of that transitioning phase from college student to adult. Sometimes I still get the desire to have a few beers on a work night but then the weekend rolls around and I'm not looking forward to a night on the town. I blame part of this on being older and not "recovering" as easily and the other part on the expenses one entails when out on the town. This "expense" makes me miss college even more! Not because I didn't always pay my bar tabs out of my own pocket (Thanks, Mom!) but because college towns are so stinking cheap! Dollar drafts; two for one longnecks (and jager bombs. vom.); and who can forget, FREE beer. Roll back the time machine, will ya!

That's just what I plan to do this weekend. Roll back that ol' time machine. It's homecoming in the bustling town of Cookeville, TN. That means good food, great friends and CHEAP DRINKING!!
