Mid-holiday randomness

• I am back to work, for two and half days, before I have another mini-vacation (four days off-woot).
• I froze in Utah. Really. I would lay in bed at night with four quilts on top of me and just shake.
• I love my family. We had a wonderful holiday with just us. I don't think I've laughed so hard in a long time.
• I got an A- and a B- this semester. That interrupted my holiday cheer.
• I received wonderful holiday gifts expect for the thing I wanted to most. Now, I know the holiday is about so much more than presents, but I really, REALLY wanted this one thing. I had been asking for it since July. I was sure I was going to get it so I didn't buy it. The book is now out of print and going for hundreds of dollars on e-Bay. And yes, I cried a little (in the shower so my parents wouldn't hear me) when I didn't get it. I blame that bad reaction on the B- (see above).
• I wasn't off the plane on Saturday for more than an hour before I was out in the desert burning stuff. And having the sheriff called on us. Boo.
• I'm going camping this weekend at Four Peaks and it is going to be a wicked good time.
• We already have 89 Christmas trees for our annual tree-burning party in February.
