Yesterday, before work - one hour, three stores, four presents.  And, I got to work on time.  I am victorious!  :)

Okay, I cheated and used [livejournal.com profile] eor's Amazon wishlist, but still.  I'm really not a shopping person. 
Hope all your wishes come true. :)
He's swept and mopped all the floors, done all the dishes, scrubbed out the sink and done several scrubbing sessions on the top of the stove, cleaned the bathroom all up - in short, put the rights the pigsty atmosphere which prevailed while he was in the midst of his busy season.  And then he took a much-deserved rest and laid on the bed watching me sort clothes for the laundry, just wanting to hang out near me.  *snuggles her sweet [livejournal.com profile] eor!*
(Through [livejournal.com profile] tootsiemuppet):  Crowley and Aziraphale's New Year's Resolutions as written by Neil Gaiman.  Apparently this is promo for another printing of Good Omens.  (Yeah, but GNeil, when's the sequel coming out?  Just have [livejournal.com profile] daegaer write it for you; she actually does better at the characters than you and PTerry. ;>)

Aaand, speaking of [livejournal.com profile] daegaer - she's written me some Christmas wishlist fic!  I'll bet the neighbors could hear me squee!  *dances*

Also, we went to see Goblet of Fire, which I thought was really good, and [livejournal.com profile] eor thought was really good but not as good as the previous movies.  And oddly enough, it was chock full of slashy bits, but they eliminated some Harry / Ron that was in the book... ) 

But, I've got to admit, I never was at all interested in Cho Chang before I heard her speaking.  Gah!  Asian girl with Scottish accent = yum!

Oh, and we happened to see FIL on the street outside the theater before the show.  He greeted [livejournal.com profile] eor with a yell - "Nice looking woman you're walking with!" and of course [livejournal.com profile] eor ignored him and kept walking.  It doesn't pay to give attention to the people who yell at you on the street in Portland - it just encourages 'em.  I've told FIL that before.:)  But we did stop and go back to speak with him when I realized he was doing a convincing imitation of a kicked puppy.  He had just met an Irish girl in the Old Port and offered to give me her email address so I'd have a place to stay if I went to Ireland.  I would not know what to say, cold emailing some random Irish girl!  I don't know how he just meets people that way, and can talk to them - and he seems to think anyone can do that.  Sheesh.

Now we're home with barbecue chicken and soon it will be time for me to try to figure out how to wrap those presents for [livejournal.com profile] eor.  *is happy*  I love wrapping presents for Eor. :)
