Still working on the queen size blanket I started in August. Making good progress!

Was a big long post about running that I neglected to share, and now having read this McSweeneyâs piece Iâm glad I didnât

Live Thoughts while Watching White Christmas
- Having a show in a combat zone is very stupid!
- âThanks for saving my life! Call me if you need anything! But donât actually call though, okay?â
- 10 days off with pay for Christmas? What is this world.
- Bing Crosbyâs character is definitely at least 40, unmarried, and in show business. Would really NOBODY at the time have assumed he was gay?
- âHow dare you make me famous and rich, I donât have enough free time to myself!â
- Freckle Faced Hanes, the DOG FACED BOY?!
- This plot is really bad but also it doesnât matter because watch Vera Ellen dance
- Why do they do this sister act, why donât they just do one of their own songs? Is dressing up like women that hilarious in the 50s?
- Where is the SNOW? Ah movies before climate change was a thing
- The housekeeper is such a bitch, I love her.
- They must skip this Minstrel number when they show this on TV right?
- âGoodnight Judyâ, face full of perfect stage makeup
- So nice of Bob to sing Betty a lullaby
- The wordplay in this is consistent but always unexpected. âBleached chargerâ.
- âThe listening on the phone to things you shouldnât overhear and getting it wrongâ is my least favourite plot in anything ever but especially this.
- By âletâs think about it over a sandwichâ I assume Phil means âwhile I eat oneâ because Judy clearly never eats.
- What a jaunty ascot Bob has on in this scene.
- Bob at the train station trying to make sure it can handle ⊠trains? This seems like not his job.
- Vera Ellenâs WAIST my GOD
- âWeirdsmobileâ
- All the creative ways they find for Rosemary Clooney not to dance
- Betty if you just asked Bob directly we would not be in this mess.
- âNo one is getting money for this!â Such a regular thing to say on TV
- âIt took 15,000 men to take my placeâ how long has Emma been with General Waverly anyway.
- They threw me a musical number! Now all my problems are solved!
- No matter how many times Iâve seen this Iâm still delighted when it magically snows at the end.
- And the dresses. And the kiss. And the song. Itâs a great end to a ridiculous movie.
I donât normally post selfies
But on the weekend I put in some fake pink hair extensions for a party, and I thought it looked pretty cute!
We Have Tree đ
Never had a Christmas tree so early in my life but my husband was very stoked to go to a nearby neighbourhood tree lot and get our first ever real tree. It smells like Christmas!
Just found the cutest pedometer pet
Itâs called Habbie! You âfeedâ it by meeting your daily step goal, which you can raise or lower to meet your own needs. You can also give him nice pats.
If you donât meet your step goal, it poops, and the only way to clean it is by walking more. I love this because the last pedometer phone pet I tried would die if you didnât meet your goal, and I found that very upsetting. Like what if youâre sick, and really canât do your step? It just dies?
Not Habbie! He just poops and sulks about it until you meet your goal. Perfect. Heâs also super cute! For the really low one-time fee, Iâm really happy with it.
If youâre looking for a home- or- lock-screen widget pal, I highly recommend!
