Christmas is next week. Surprise! I thought I'd give y'all a random update of things going on in my real life. Listen to one of my favorite Christmas songs, the Beef Wellington Remix of "Happy Holiday" while you read.
02 Happy Holiday (Beef Wellington Remix)
I still have a few gifts to get. I have a self-imposed deadline of Friday for purchasing and Sunday for wrapping. I was caught up with wrapping until UPS and Fed Ex came today. I'm pretty sure the delivery men hate my guts. I wouldn't blame them. 7 packages on one day is a bit much, even for me.
This year I will not be sending Christmas cards. This makes me extremely upset because I'm me. I couldn't get it together this year. So, if you usually get a card from the Faler fam, just know you aren't the only one who didn't get a card. But there will be a very special card on the blog.
Kahlua makes a peppermint mocha flavor. I'm borrowing Ina Garten's phrase, "how bad can that be?" to sum up my feelings on this development.
My five year-old now prefers the "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer/Roxanne" mash-up version of "Rudolph" to the original.
My middle child does not like the song "Christmas in Hollis." I am devastated. Where have I failed as a parent?
I'm also devastated because I have to get my wisdom teeth forcibly removed from my mouth next week. I like to schedule surgeries around holidays because pain is pain, right? I'm kidding. Really, I'm not looking forward to this because I've grown very attached to my wisdom teeth and only recently have they been making me want to shoot myself in the face to distract myself from the pain they are causing. I took this picture of my x-ray at the oral surgeon's office because I'm me. I may use this as my profile pic next week on Facebook because I have a weird sense of humor.
Oh, and I'm also having my frenulum lasered. The frenulum is that fleshy thingie that connects your top lip to your gums. I didn't know that there was a word for that thingie until two weeks ago. Yeah, I think that's going to hurt as well.
Also, they made me watch a video about having your wisdom teeth extracted while I was at the oral surgeon's office. It was not Oscar material. It would have been better if I would have had Raisinettes. Or laughing gas.
The won't give you laughing gas for the consultation. Don't even ask.
Is that picture freaky or what? Look how my arm looks all bent out of shape in the corner. Looks deformed.
What else was I going to tell you people?
I could go for some nachos. That isn't what I was going to tell y'all.
I can always go for some nachos.
I'm going to do a year-in-Kerry Blog-review after I'm recovered from the teeth being yanked out of my noggin deal. It will be a must read post. A lot of stuff happened this year in my world. I may blog about the year for the rest of the world if I have time before the end of the year.
You can't write a year-in-review after December 31st because OMG that is so last year!
I'm also going to write my new year's resolutions.
I may resolve not to lose my temper in Best Buy again, but I can't promise anything. That place is of the devil, no lie.
More later.
