Holidays and all that

I’m here! Honest. Just uhm.. being easily distracted by all the choices to read at the moment.

Ohh! Cookies from neevebrody and friendshipper! And hot chocolate to go with them from amdir_jas Thank you all!

I got my Holiday cards out monday... not as early as I wanted. I had a stack of overseas.. and the local post guy kind of laughed at me when I asked how long overseas was taking. *sigh* Seems I misjudged the timing there. I didn't realize you had to mail them the 1st of December? I think of doing cards after Thanksgiving – but for some reason I think that's too early to mail them, so I wait, then when it seems time, it's too late. So, all my overseas pals.... You will receive 'Happy New Year' cards!

I've been slow also with Christmas shopping. Keeping going to the mall and wandering around aimlessly not seeing anything that really 'speaks' to me for anyone on my list. There's a reason I'm usually shopping on the 24th!

I participated in one holiday exchange - sga_art_santa . Lots of wonderful art has started to post. Go take a look! And one of them is by me – and one for me too! Whee! I want to thank bluespirit_star for being my wonderful art beta and helping me to refine the art to something that came out much better than I was originally imagining with just some little adjustments.

And the one for me has posted! Shore Leave A beautiful romantic piece that I immediately put as my wallpaper! Thank you santa! (and I've been looking at it trying to figure out how it was done! I love all the stuff I learn)

And not only art, but so much good stuff to read at sga_santa, undermistletoe, and ts_secret_santa. Oh my! And just a little while ago I was bemoaning the lack of stuff to read. No more! Now there is so many I want to hide and read all day! (which really cuts into the shopping and things like, you know, work!). I'm behind in reading and commenting on all of them. I hope to catch up one day.

ETA: Oh - and bluespirit_star is doing a daily advent of goodies art and stories too! She's so ambitious!

At the Movies - Tron: Legacy

Saw Tron: Legacy tonight with some friends. Pretty good. Needed more light cycles :) Hey - I admit it, I'm an action girl. Lots of info to get through, so some long scenes with talking, but I think they did a decent job with the story... even if you know where it's going. (not really any surprises). Enough action to keep my interest. Some pretty kick ass graphics and Jeff Bridges being good and evil :)

Worth seeing - Yes.
