January 2008: Juno & Val & Matt's Housewarming

January 2nd, Wednesday - Yay! Daryl is back. That is all.

January 5th, Saturday - Sick. Boo.

January 11th, Friday - Dentist. Minty fresh.

January 19th, Saturday - JUNO. Cried my eyes out from when she tells her parents she's pregnant, through the entire rest of the movie. Uncontrollable sobbing and spasms. Somehow my infertility and my poverty combined with watching a movie about an unwanted/wanted pregnancy drove me to inconsolable sorrow. I think if I weren't weeping, I would have probably liked the movie. As it is, I can't really tell. Too many issues!

January 22nd, Tuesday - I've finally decided to hire a maid. Trying to keep up the house just got to be too much for me. And you know what? I LOVE IT. It's like fairies come and clean the house while I'm away. It's fantastic. Thank you, Lucy! I love coming home to my clean, clean house. I wish I could afford to have you come weekly.

January 26th, Saturday - Val & Matt's Housewarming. The TWOP crowd has been meeting at Val's old place and hadn't seen the new house, until now. It's a lovely cottage-like house in Alhambra. The driveway is ridiculously small, but the house is a nice comfortable size. They have a fireplace and a yard and a very large fridge. I can't wait to see what it looks like when they finish painting and remodeling. We got to see Matt's LEGO Indiana Jones setup and play Guitar Hero, so it wasn't all about the house. But it was fun!


I forgot to post this picture, but here's a candy goldfish that I got at the Disney Holiday Party. They had a guy roll the candy right in front of you and he'd do whatever shape you asked for. The lucky people got to ask for dragons but I thought they took too long so I asked for a goldfish. Well, I think it's pretty!
