december... well that was a while ago now. a blur if you will. 

let's see here. i bought the grinch - cartoon version and played it in 80% of my 

classes so i watched it something like 10 times by the time christmas came. still laughed every time. still loved it every time. 

we had a homemade christmas exchange at which i received this awesome owl pillow and i  enhanced an apron for ash. i spent 7 hours on a sunday hand-sewing. that was preceded by the hour i spent making a cheesecake for which i had to chop up a chocolate bar to have chocolate chips. 

yes friends, chocolate chips don't exist. and i also hung my laundry to dry. basically - i lived in 1930 for a day. it was cute. we had a christmas cookie baking party. czechs freaking spank americans in their decorations. i mean. by lightyears.

i ate about 25 different varieties of czech christmas cookies. all delicious. all tiny. like tiny. so that you're like - oh i should have another and another and another - since they are 1/3 the size of normal cookies - and 14 cookies later... y

ou're like wo- calm down there killer. 

we had an office party at a restaurant. me and bean tried to dance after on stodolni. they played the ting tings. that one song was enough. then it was back to trash-attack of the 90s terrible rock bands like limp bizkit - so we left satisfied w/ a good dance to the ting tings. k. pics of that stuff. 84 more updating posts to follow.
