T in 16 hrs. I wish it was now. I don't even remember how I made it two weeks or longer with T. It feels like I barely make it one week with L. I guess things with T was getting stale whereas things with L are fresh?

I've already started Christmas shopping! I only have shopped etsy for now. I'll shop other stores when it's closer, but etsy can take awhile to get.

I'm planning on getting everyone a picture etched in a crystal. So for my sister - my nieces, my mom - her and my stepdad, my dad - my sister, nieces, and me, and for a friend - her two kids.

Am I weird? I love shopping and giving gifts, but I actually don't like recieving gifts. I like gifts, but for some reason I feel embarrassed and uncomfortable.

I love giving gifts .. but also don’t like receiving them. In the moment I feel pressure, pressure to like it or to be thankful - and even if it’s something I truly wanted, its overwhelming. I’d rather just take pleasure in giving and that is what I do.

My new sofa comes tomorrow, the old click clack futon one is now in the sunroom so I have somewhere to read. It has been a few years since I had a proper sofa with cushions and arms I am excited. Hopefully the cats will still continue to claw the old one leave the new one alone

I've never tried cool whip or spam either. Am I missing out? It never seems like it

I certainly don' think never having eaten spam counts as 'missing out'. Cool whip, idunno maybe a little bit, it's whipped cream with sugar, you can make it yourself and it will be better than anything store bought!
Thanks for this!

Spam is delicious.
Cool whip is nothing like whipped cream with sugar - unless by that you mean very little cream, some petroleum, and high fructose corn syrup.

I don't think I will be trying the pumpkin spiced spam any time soon. I'm appalled that Starbucks is already advertising PSL in a countdown form. Yeah, yeah, talk to me when the eggnog lattes come out. Then I'm interested!!

Not only was it Donut Friday at work today but it was hot dog/hot link and chips lunch day at work today. Free food! Plus one of my bosses gave me a whole bottle of ketchup to take home (he bought it with his money but said if he left it at work it would just go bad before it gets eaten) but I'll probably send it up to my sister's because she's the one with five children who eat ketchup on everything!

Of course there was a whole discussion about vegetarian hot dogs verses "regular" hot dogs. As one coworker is a vegetarian. This led to a discussion of what is in hot dogs, at which point I was no longer hungry.

Yeah! About two more hours and then I am off of work for the weekend. I definitely could use some sleep this weekend as I am quite tired. I have book club tomorrow but nothing else planned except Church on Sunday. Then PDOC and T on Monday.

Today is H and I's 11 year anniversary for being married. Maybe I should be happy today but it feels fake. I'm in a bad mood instead. I woke up with some pretty strong, serious SI and SH thoughts today instead.

@SlumberKitty - think it's something to do with reaching 10,000 posts. Congratulations!

By the way, you ought to be able to choose your own title now.

I don't think ketchup goes bad. I think the bottle I have in my refrigerator is over 5 years old. People have eaten it and not suffered any ill effects that I know of.
