Christmas presents.
I usually get started on my Christmas shopping in August or September, but it's now Dec. 9 and I haven't even started thinking about this stuff. I don't think I'll really have time for any of it until next weekend, either.
Between now and the big X (as in -mas) I've got a lot on the agenda. A housewarming party, an ornament exchange potluck brunch, two after-hours Christmas parties with co-workers, a get together with a high school friend. I've also got some grad school letters of recommendation to write for a guy I worked with on the college paper. Oh! And there's a Hip Chicks wine tasting coming up. And I'd really like to get together with Rian. We've been trying to find time together since September. There'll be trips to Tigard, too, likely. And maybe a few more open houses. I also really need to finish off those year-in-review letters we'd like to send out.
Perhaps this will be a season for online holiday shopping. Dealing with chaotic shops when I'm in such a chaotic mental space seems like a bit much.
