we were laughing at the stars while our feet clung tight to the ground

holla blog!

no case of the mondays here. I think it's carried-over jolliness from yesterday; I continued Christmas-spiritizing by decorating the apartment and wrapping presents while watching Elf. it actually took up most of the day, which was okay because the forecasted snow turned into rain very quickly, so I had no desire to go outside.

I don't have any holiday-themed sweaters unfortunately, and I was really in the mood for one, so I just stole Brandon's. I've been obsessed with the idea of oversize lately. I think it's the appeal of belts. this was my "getting in the spirit" outfit.

funny story... I literally found this hat on the side of the road. it was on the sidewalk in front of a neighbourhood house one day, so I picked it up and put it on the car in the driveway. a couple days later it was still on the sidewalk, so I guessed no one was missing it, stuck it in the washer, and...new hat for moi.

below is no flash, so you can see the pretty lights along with our cut-out Christmas tree. :o)

today was actually a busy day at work. there's less than two weeks left of the internship, so we're all starting to get a few more assignments. I have four due by next monday, and I'm actually happy. time goes so slowly when you're trying to kill it.

there's a cruel song lyric in there somewhere...

I had lots to tell you today, but alas, it is late already. it was a busy evening as well. so perhaps tomorrow!

for now, I leave you with outfit pics.

I think this locket is perfect. I love the brass colour, and how the pattern is on both sides, so you on't have to worry about which one is facing out.

g'night, folks.
