This comes from Amber over at Forever Amber. Two days late on the Friday Five.
1. What made you happy this week?
Listening to Christmas music. One of the local radio stations started Christmas music the first week of November. Can you believe it?! That's too early even for me. I have to admit I've felt a tad guilty since my general rule is not to start listening to Christmas music until Thanksgiving Day. But, I figure Thanksgiving is pretty late this year so it's okay. What made me even happier? Finding out that Harry Connick, Jr. has put out a new Christmas CD. WOOT!! Also, we had the house cleaned on Friday. I came home to a COMPLETELY CLEAN HOUSE. I could not stop smiling.
2. What made you sad?
That part of the family is going elsewhere for Thanksgiving and we will have a much smaller crew at my mother-in-law's house than we usually have. And in addition to that, John's Aunt Barbara is coming. Aunt Barbara is the anti-Christ. I just know it.
3. What made you angry?
My freaking dry-skin rash is coming back on my ankle and it itches like mad. I just want to cut my flesh off. My skin is a wreck already and it's not even January yet. I need to live in the tropics. The dry air in the house is killing me.
4. What are you looking forward to in the next week?
Thanksgiving and officially starting my new job.
5. What are you not looking forward to?
Aunt Barbara on Turkey Day. (Come the revolution, all jobs will adhere to the school holiday schedule.)
Harry has a new Christmas cd?! Damn it. There's another purchase I need to make. Damn you. But thank you. :)
Do you have garlic and a wooden stake ready for Aunt Barbara? Oh wait, that's vampires...
