So I got laid off yesterday. :(
It's not permanent so that's good. I should go back around mid-january. I'm trying to look at this as a vacay and hopefully I'll get some stuff around the house done. I was worried Christmas wise but hubby came home and said he'd got a bonus so yay for that!
Big thanks for all the snowflakes! I loved them and tried to send more to other people but I was at work and only able to get a few out. That was fun. LJ should give freebies away more often or have mistakes or whatever.
Saw Adam Lambert last night on Barbara Walter's special. I luff him. I totally blame my f-list and chat peeps for seeing and recognizing Kris Allen the other morning on VH-1, as I got ready for work. I passed by the TV, squinted and then said, "Oh! It's pocket idol!"
Plus when they talked about Adam on the special they showed clips from his vid for that 2012 movie. I need to see the whole vid since I never bothered to watch it but his coat looks awesome.
I have a cold. Blehh. I've been sicker this year then any other and I am suspicious of my flu shot. Also have a doc appt tomorrow so it's good i'm on layoff since I was near trouble absentee wise at work. It's hard to try and balance when your kids are sick (as they were a few weeks ago) and work. Kids win. But having to take off for one kid and then the other a few days later can be trying. Stacey stays home sometimes but if he has a big meeting or whatever then he can't.
CARDS
If you want a holiday card, email me your address at kelly_girl1232003@yahoo.com. I love sending cards and I have some cute ones this year.
Another thing about being laid off? More time to write fic! Most likely White Collar fic! I have fic ready to post after I polish it a little more so stay tuned for that one tonight. Anyone else read and re-read a fic you're working on so much you get sick of it?
Fic Rec: Firefly/Farscape, Gen. Great story that avoids the trap of trying to introduce every character and their pasts, but shows us what they are capable of.

Date: 2009-12-10 04:36 pm (UTC)I adore Adam but whenever I watch him I spend more time lusting after his clothes or hair OR MAKEUP than I do him.
And, yeah, I said I would be able to write more often now that I'm unemployed but I've only discovered that after so many years of being chained to a computer I really like being away from it. Fresh air is kinda nice. But sunshine burns, yo.

I had the regular flu shot a little over a month ago without any ill effects. Hopefully it'll work.
And this year I can use all the holiday cheer I can get so I'll be sending you my address.
