I did what I said I was gonna do today, and I read through everything from the past year.  There’s a year anniversary coming up.. FAST approaching.. and I like to look back at anniversaries.

E said it best: “You know you’re over it when you’re indifferent to it.  Hate is NOT the opposite of love; indifference is.”

And for the first time in a year, I read EVERYTHING and just saw it as humorous.  The screenplay has written itself.

Now it’s just time for the happy ending.

Today has been a lovely day.  It was a busy day at work, which helped.  I’ve been tapped to help with the redesign of our building, which just tickles my pickle.  Thrilled to have something new to work on.  Monotony is killing me.

Getting away for lunch was WONDERFUL.  Thanks again to Keboobalah for making all of my decisions for me.  He even ordered for me and didn’t know it.  And I’m sorry we didn’t have longer to chill, and that everyone had to run back to Madison to do that work thing. 

Scrooge, your hair is getting long.  You haven’t asked me about your hair in a while, so I’m offering.

We are almost at Thanksgiving.  I thought it would never come.  And a week after that, my house becomes OUR house.  I really thought that would never come.  Then Delle comes home, albeit for WAAAY too short a visit, then Jenni comes home.. ah, the holidays.

I have four Christmas memories that are my most cherished:

• Falling asleep in front of Bryan’s Christmas tree last year, wrapped up in his arms, on Christmas Eve.. this will become a tradition, no question.
• Waking up on Christmas morning to meet Delle in the hexagonal hallway and wish each other a Merry Christmas, all sleepy in our t-shirts, like we were children
• Kevin waking up Christmas morning the year prior and taking Mabel for a Christmas walk down the street with his Santa hat on
• Going to my parents’ house on Christmas morning every year and seeing Jenni, whom I usually haven’t seen in the six months prior.

Christmas makes me so incredibly happy, and I love being around loved ones during the season.  Elyse said it best the other night at rehearsal:

“Oh, Sarah, I’m so excited about Christmas this year.”

“Why?  Cause of the show?”

“No, because this is the first year that Mom has known you and Ra Ra.. it will be a big family holiday!”

That kid melts my heart somethin’ fierce.

Okay.  I’m all about people doing their jobs, but this vaccumming thing is getting ridiculous.  There is just no need for them to be by twice a week, much less two days in a row.  I feel obligated to messy the place up, so they have a reason for existance.

Had some AMAZING company at lunch, that being none other than the fantabulous Keboobalah.  We had spicy thai, which is how thai SHOULD be, and caught up.  It’s been far too long since we’ve seen eachother.. hell, his hair has grown two inches!

Also ran into Scrooge himself and Mrs. Cratchit, so that was fun.  Amazing how all of us work over in Madison and ended up in Five Points.  Raise your hand if you like your job..!  Yep, that’s what I thought.

Nothing makes me happier than hearing behind-the-scenes stories of shows around town.  They really make me giggle. 

Well, that’s all I’ve got for now.  Tons of work to accomplish before rehearsal tonight.  Busy, busy, busy.. that’s how I like my Christmases.
