Today : NOT cooking, 'cause today is my husband Justin's last day at work before Christmas, so I'm spending my time tidying the house and getting out the Christmas snacks When he gets home we're going to a nearby street that does an awesome amount of christmas lights (I'm hoping to take some photographs, we'll see!).

LOOKING FORWARD TO:
Justin being at home for Christmas
Seeing the Mighty Boosh live next year
IT'S CHRRRRIIIISSSSSTTTTTMMMMMMMMMMMAAAAAAAA
AAASSSSSSSSS!!!!!!

NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO:
Tidying the house 'for Christmas' with a 3 year old and husband.
The crowds at the shops, if I have to go to the shops at all
Christmas ending, and life going back to normal!

Recently : dusted off my old myspace account - still like facebook more than either of the others. Finished a re-read and re-watch of all the Harry Potter films & books. Must watch 'Muppets Christmas Carol' at some point over the weekend, as it is entirely made of awesome.

TODAY, Wednesday 20th December, I am :
COOKING:
Chilli Bean Bake (topped with tortilla chips with melted cheese over the top, mmmm)
Vanilla Christmas cookies - some for the tree, some for gifts, and some for nibbling.

LOOKING FORWARD TO:
Voyage of the Damned, of course. Go Astrid
The giving and recieving of Christmas gifts - I certainly know I've bought some good ones this year. Hope the same can be said in reverse
Captain John and Captain Jack together in Torchwood. *sigh*. 'Heykids...did you miss me?' awesomeness itself.
Hubby and I treating ourselves to an X-Box 360 in the sales, if we're even slightly disappointed by any of our gifts

NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO:
Spending Christmas day with the family who aren't that bothered about seeing me any other time.
Isaac going without an afternoon nap for 3 days straight (Christmas at my mums, boxing day at mother-in-laws, and day after at father-in-laws). He WILL be hell.
The post-Christmas 'oh-mi-god-the-house-is-full-of-crap-and-we've-all-got-really-fat' routine.

TODAY I AM MOSTLY WEARING:
Stay indoors, not opening the door kind of crap. Look, I'm doing a lot of cooking, okay?
