Merry Christmas!!

Yay, it's Christmas!! HAPPY CHRISTMAS! I hung out with Em and Dem after work tonight; we went to Em's house to exchange presents and then went to Muckleshoot Casino for dinner. It was great seeing them all; I hadn't seen Em since the summer of 2004 (I think..) and I hadn't seen Dem for month even though she lives 5 minutes from me. Sad, I know. That's how much I'm working but thank God the holiday rush is over and we just have to deal with some sales and returns. I can handle that. Yay, I survived and got some really nice presents along the way. Dem got me the earrings I wanted and talked about in the 7 Dec post from Something Silver, makeup brushes that I really needed and a beautiful pink photo album. Em got me a bunch of beauty products! There was a makeup bag, lip glosses, the curling mascara that I really wanted from Clinique that I should've bought instead of the Sephora one but now I have it anyways (Yay! It works really, really well!), nail polish for my toes for the summer, earrings and vanilla Tootsie Rolls. I don't like regular Tootsie Rolls - they're gross - but these vanilla ones are pretty good.

Since we're going up to Canada to see Grandpa and my cousins tomorrow, we opened presents tonight at home, too. I got another pair of earrings (3 total!) from June, the first season of 24 from Evan (Way cool!), leather gloves from Dad (Good thing I never got around to buying myself some!), and Express jeans from Mom (They fit like a dream.) I also had my gift from Ryan - 4 new books to read!! - and my gift from Tony: a beautiful teal coloured overnight bag, plus a small matching handbag and a wristlet. It's been a great Christmas and if I had a plane ticket to go home to England and spend it with my honey, it'd be even greater. Hehehe.
