it sucked.

I was going to write a long entry and email to post here for Christmas,
but...

Christmas sucked. Badly.

So, I'm going to bed early. Goodnight!

You are The Fool

The Fool is the card of infinite possibilities. The bag on the staff indicates that he has all he need to do or be anything he wants, he has only to stop and unpack. He is on his way to a brand new beginning. But the card carries a little bark of warning as well. Stop daydreaming and fantasising and watch your step, lest you fall and end up looking the fool.

new hat.

Neal and his 2 daughters got me a new hat and sweater with zipper for
Hanukkah.

I really like the hat! It's a reminiscence of Arizona with all the hot
weather during Spring and Summer!

a christmas present.

Finally! I got the supersampler camera for Christmas!

Every year, my brothers and sisters do this gift exchange. So, I'm
giving many thanks to one of my sister-in-laws!

It was a pleasant surprise when I answered the door to find out I got a
Fedex delivery from Mipperjean!

Thanks, Missy! I'm forever in your debt!

a firefox favorite: gbutts

I totally fell in love with GButts! It is a Firefox Add-on or Extension
that adds a drop-down menu of buttons to many services and features
provided by Google.

I thought my cable connection was 512kb. Boy, was I wrong!

updated signature.

For quite a while, this was my email signature:

"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks
out."

- Walter Winchell

Now, I am using this new quote as a signature:

"It is better to light a candle than to curse the darkness."

- Eleanor Roosevelt

deep thought.

I have seen this quote a few times before. I decided to post a brief entry about it.

Sometimes when you try too hard to get something, you won't be happy. Usually, you have to let things happen naturally and enjoy life, then you'll be truly happy.

delicious italian cake.

Neal and I went to Trader Joe's for dinner 2 nights ago. We wanted to
get a quick sandwish or wrap before we went to a joint Deaf
organizations' Happy Hour fundraiser.

While we were at Trader Joe's, and after we picked our choice of food to
eat, we went to the food sample serving area. We found someone working
the table and asked if we could get our food microwaved bec it is so
cold outside. The worker reminded us that they aren't supposed to warm
up food for customers, but sensed our urgency and went ahead anyways. I
noticed a tray with slices of some kind of bread with diced fruit in
them. I tried a sample...

Mmmmmmh! It tasted really good!

While our food was getting heated up in the microwave, I asked about the
price of the type of bread. I forgot how much exactly it was. I can't
find the receipt, but I know it was somewhere between 6 to 7 dollars.

There was a big stack of the fruit bread in boxes. I noticed the boxes
came in 2 colors. I asked the salesperson what's the difference. The
darker colored boxes are raisins with candied fruit bits, and the
lighter colored boxes have cranberries instead with candied fruit bits.
Based on the salesperson's suggestion, I made my choice and grabbed it.

cat humor.

a nice surprise.

I was baking 3 kinds of cookies today when Neal came home from work. He walked in the kitchen and we chatted for a bit while I set the dough on the coockie sheet. He was playing with Pepper, then asked me to close my eyes for a minute. So, I shut my eyes.

He tapped me on the shoulder and I opened up my eyes. He held up a box with a small fiber optic Christmas tree in it.

I didn't have Christmas things or decorations around the apartment. Neal felt bad that he and his family will celebrate their Jewish traditions and holidays this month, and I won't be celebrating Christmas. Now the little tree is sitting in the corner of the living/dining room area.

I'm really touched. It really meant a lot what he did for me today! I wonder if he understood what that meant to me..

Anyway.. Happy Hannukah (spell? I'm gonna check dictionary for this one), Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, y'all!
