bloodsong1And we find Queenie still lounging around in her comfy snowflake jammies (gods, I love this set) screwing around on the internet while the kiddo watches PBS Sprout for the Thomas the Tank Engine clips. Oh yes, and Kipper. And Noddy, because, you know, the Canadians make CUTE cartoons for kids. *nodnodnod*
Still jobless, sigh. Never heard back from the two companies I interviewed for, very sad about this. I felt like I had finally made a connection, y'know? Both interviews ended on such positive notes, I thought. Guess I didn't make the cut, again. Oh well. I shall console myself with anime music, Katamari and candy cane cookies. Yes, I baked! One batch of cookies for a party we ended up not going to because Wolf was too tired and achy. My poor packmate has been fighting low-grade infections for months now. We got a bonus from his company, but we're not sure if we should pay down the Visa, get him to a doctor or hold it in reserve for if/when we get the call that his grandmother has transcended and he'll need to fly back to NY for the funeral.
Yeah, she was hospitalized over the weekend for possible pneumonia and congestive heart failure. Was holding her own as of Sunday morning, haven't heard anything since. MIght call them tonight for an update. A week's advance notice would save us over $200 on the plane ticket, but Wolf is convinced they won't keep her aboveground that long. In fact, his mom told him not to try. *twitch*
I'm jonesing on the expanded userpic options. I really want a Ginji and a Sousoke one, but I'm not finding them. Anyone have any links or suggestions? *bats eyes* I'd be EVER so grateful.
Oh, and that reminds me. Hey, Janny-chan! Did you get that email I sent you last week, with the pic attached? What did you think?
That's about it from the mountains. Driving the kiddo down to the grandparents for Christmas weekend, we're having our stuff tomorrow night. The big question is, should I torture the kiddo by breaking out the gifts tomorrow morning and making him wait until Daddy gets home to open them, or be kind and not reveal until after dark? Decisions, decisions.
