So the holiday stuff has started up around my house full blast. My mother has put the final touches on making this place look like Christmas land by turning the spare bedroom into the "wrapping room". What part have I played in all of that? I have sat in the wrapping room working on projects and basically making the place look like huricane Jenna hit it at catergory five. Couldn't be helped I had gifts to make and modify.

I have decided I really DO like painting. It was a much underapreciated medium to me. Typically you just have to give me color pencils or pastels and I'm happy. For some reason painting has become a really good stress realiever for me. It had occured to me that I should take pictures of some of the stuff I worked on....but then I realized I gift wraped it already....DOH! Be sure I will have the camera ready for when my projects shall be liberated.

Tomorrow I have this dealy to do with my friends. Every year we have dinner together and exchange gifts amongst ourselves. I'm actually pretty excited about it this year. A secret between all of you and me? I'm a reaction whore when it comes to gifts!

So, what kind of holiday celebrations are all of you gearing up for? My plans are to spend christmas eve with my family ( a long standing family tradition stretching back to before I was born) and then later going to check our a movie. I can't decide weather it should be horror or to go check out memoirs of a Geisha. Suggestions?
