bloodsong1and the shortest day of the year. All hail the rebirth of the Sun!
Anyhew.
Got up at 8 for presents. Kiddo got a tractor from Wolf's family, which was nice, and a Power Ranger toy set. *twitch* We told them LAST YEAR that we didn't approve of such toys. Guess they forgot. All will be well, we're going to give the PR stuff to Toys for Tots and we bought Star Wars ships to replace them. *eville grin* That's right, our son will be fully geek-educated.
Speaking of geek-chic, we also unwrapped our light sabers and had a fine time banging them around. Wolf got the Dooku one, I settled for generic Jedi and kiddo had the Yoda. Much fun. Us adults also have We Heart Katamari *squee!* and PsyOps, the game where you can make heads go splodey with psychic powers. WHoo hoo!
After gifts, we headed out for breakfast, did a little shopping at Target (got the ships and a wireless controller for the PS2) and Gordman's (scored a sweet gazebo-looking candle holder and two six inch pillars smelling nicely of fresh roses) and put my unemployment check in the bank. Then we got the car washed and came home for good. Kiddo's currently supposed to be taking a nap, Wolf's playing Galatica.
Nice to know that even after our impromptu spending spree yesterday (hatchet for Solstice fire and a live potted Christmas tree) and today, we still have enough for a serious food run and two tanks of gas. *phew* I was a leetle concerned.
No idea what we'll be doing Christmas weekend while the kiddo's down south. Probably go see a movie, *Points at Kandybar*, or just stay at home making sure everything took. *snicker* Was nauseous and rather light headed for a few hours this afternoon, stuffing my face with spinach dip and saltine crackers seems to have helped.
I should probably look up first month symptoms for pregnancy, shouldn't I? Won't be able to test for at least another week. Due to start between the 27th and the 5th of January, but knowing how my body likes to fuck with me...
Anyhew.
