The long and leisurely dinner with Jliz was a success. I hope she enjoyed herself and had a "special" day, in a way that only a birthday can do.
Today is my last day at the office until Tuesday. I am ready to get out of here. With the trial coming up, I am going to be so crazy stressed and busy that I am really anticipating soaking up this break from the office moreso than any other time. I am anxious to see my brother, back off the Alaskan fishing boat for the time being. My mother and father are nearly giddy to have us both home - its going to be nice to have us all together again.
Sarah and I have exhausted the classic Christmas carol stream in our office so we're trying this like "pop" Christmas which as far as I can tell is really horrible. I just want to hear the song "I Want A Hippopotamus for Christmas" one more time, honestly. That was one of the best songs on the first Christmas carol stream... Ooh, Jimmy Eat World's cover of Last Christmas just came on. Fantastic.
In other news, I got my measurements for Stephanie's wedding today. Since I don't really know what "good" or "bad" measurements are (well, "bad" might entail needing two tape measures to get around my hips but that wasn't the case here) so the modesty that she guaranteed is irrelevant to me. Measurements big as a house? Who knew? I shouldn't joke, I know that is a very sensitive for some people...seeing as I had an eating disorder for like 2 years, I really should know better.
Anyway. My bosses gave us a bottle of Perrier Jouet champagne ontop of the other gifts this holiday season...delicious. Those bubbles work like magic. I read something about what differentiates sparkling wine from champagne but I forgot it already. So much with being topically intelligent on that subject.
