Happy Anniversary and Merry Christmas Eve To Me!

****

Well, yesterday was my anniversary, but since I was
spending time with my husband (imagine that), I decided
not to write. We don't get much time together with me
working so many hours, so I wanted to devote the entire
evening to him. Snookums surprised me at work with
flowers. It was so sweet. I was at the cashwrap, slaving
away over a hot register, when the Flowers To Go man came
in and delivered them. I couldn't help but smile. So, even
though we decided not to really do anything for our
anniversary, I still stopped by World Market and got
Snookie a little something-something. I made him a
personalized gift basket of snacks (different kinds of
party mixes and nuts), two wine glasses with painted black
stems and a perfect anniversary card from Hallmark, of
course. We just ordered pizza, drank wine and ate our
snacks in bed. It was a fun night.

Today was a good day unto itself. I worked a long shift
9am-6pm. The mall wasn't busy at all. It was so quiet that
Tamara and a group of associates were able to take down
all the Christmas stuff and transition to New Year's. The
few people that came in dropped big amounts of money and
kept us in the green for most of the day. We met all of
our goals. I even pulled off 6 credit cards, which was
nice, since I've been straggling on that a bit lately. I
got 15 total last week, but considering how many hours
I've worked, I should have had a lot more. Everyone was in
such a great mood. All the clients were nice, my fellow
associates were joking around, having fun, blowing noise
makers. It was just a really relaxed day. We got off
early, too with it being Christmas Eve. Good times...

As our Christmas present, Limited Brands (the company that
owns VS) gave us 50% off selected items in the PINK line,
so I had to take advantage of that today, seeing as how it
was the last day. I got a t-shirt and two pairs of pants
for $36.45. Thats usually what you pay for one pair of
pants, so I was happy about that. I got Snookums a gift
card, kind of as a joke, but I'm hoping maybe he'll go get
some more Very Sexy for him cologne with it. I love that
scent on him. The reason I gave him a gift card instead of
just getting the cologne myself was because we didn't have
the kind he likes in right now (shipment didn't come
today) and I needed to get to $50 so I could get the free
bag with Very Sexy make-up in it. It's a gift with
purchase when you spend $50. It has a new shade of lip
gloss, mascara, eyeliner, Desire lotion and Pure Seduction
lotion in it and I wanted it, but couldn't find anything
else I wanted to buy, so that served the purpose. I even
get a discount on gift cards, too! I got a $35 one for
$26.00. That doesn't suck!

I'm gonna go for now. Snookums and I are going to have
Chinese food in bed, then eat cheesecake. Yes, I'm being a
bad vegan, but I'm still a good vegetarian. No meat since
August! Not many can do that. I don't want it any other
way...

Ciao and Merry Christmas to all!
