Maybe it’s much too early in the game, but I thought I’d ask you just the same…
My resolution for 2010 will be to learn how to wrap a present properly, once and for all…
Earning an A for effort doesn’t mean much when all the presents look like exclamation points…
I should probably note that no new wrapping products were purchased this year, and about 50% is previously used material. #GreenChristmas

Santa gave me a Wii Fit a little early and I’m apparently older than I should be. This whole Wii age concept must be how they hook you…

Someday my right-wing dad will call me by the name he gave me. Until then, I’m stuck with lady wrestler or web monkey. http://bit.ly/6QviP9

Any local people want to take some of this eggnog cheesecake off my hands? I made waaaay too much. I have chocolate-ginger brownies, too.
