I am pissed off at the Post Office. First I get a priority mail package 12 days after it was mailed, and now an opened, empty envelope! And when I went to the Post Office to mail a package this afternoon, they'd closed at noon, leaving me to stew in a line of people who had no idea how to use the automated kiosk. The good for today: Magenta was out and about! When I came close, she darted back into her shell, but it was nice to see some crabby activity. Delirium hasn't moved since I noticed the molt and I am not sure if I should worry. I wish I could summon up some actual plot for the L/A I have simmering in my brain. It'd be nice to spend New Year's Eve writing. |

According to the UPS website, I'll have my Eee on Friday. So not by New Year's as I'd hoped, but still delightfully soon. I can't wait! I'm sleepy but I'm hungry too. Thus I am making something to eat, and perhaps I will sleep more once I have eaten. ![[info]](https://www.scribbld.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} acidrica, if I feel up to it I'll go to the PO later today. |

doombuggie! We went to Eyemasters to pick up my new glasses, and I had them write down my prescription so I can order more pairs from the site feetwilltravel linked me to. Def. gonna get a pair or two from there. I am thinking purple lensed shades. After that we strolled the Highland Mall a bit, and then he took me to Fiddler's Hearth for the best fish & chips I've ever had. Then more shopping! We went to Gamefellas and then the Lakeline Mall, where I got a page a day calendar, three boxes of Dessert Pocky, and a sixpack of melon ramune. Dangerous!Maybe when my Eee arrives I can get a few decent stills with the webcam to show off my new glasses (and, hell, my old ones). |

Also, I loaded up a USB drive with 4G of stuff to load onto it when it gets here. In this order, this is what I loaded it with: Trillian Firefox Winamp a big folder of (mostly anime-related) porn (another reason why calling it Kusuri-uri would be apt, LOL) the fansub of the second Death Note movie a bunch of MP3s I'm such a dork. |

doombuggie was an angel and took me to Eyemasters. Well, first he took me to lunch! We were going to go to Fiddler's Hearth for fish & chips, but they weren't open, so then we headed to a burger place called Mighty Fine, but they were packed, and then we went to Jason's Deli and they were Just Right. Also they had Boylan's soda in the fountain; cane sugar sweetened all the way! I was craving protein so I had a pastrami melt OM NOM NOM.So then we went to Eyemasters. It was mad busy, we waited around for what seemed like ages. I picked out the frames I wanted; a black blastic sore of emo-kid looking pair, and a nondescript black wire rimmed pair. When a clerk finally got to me, I told him I wanted the 2 for $99 deal and he didn't try to upsell me at all. As busy as they were, though, the glasses wouldn't be ready for three hours, so we're going back tomorrow. This is the first time I've gotten glasses that someone else wasn't holding the purse strings. Ok, I got the cheapies anyway, but it was entirely my call. Come tomorrow I will have a four pair wardrobe of glasses, and I am going to make myself only wear the shades when it is actually sunny. All you Austin folk, if you catch me wearing my shades at night, feel free to bitch me out. |

Christmas Day was nicely finished off by a surprise visit from D. for some amiable low-key conversation (largely about piercing) and some backrubs (not *nudge nudge wink wink* "backrubs", actual backrubs, and it felt damn good). So it turned out to be a very social day! All that was missing was hanging out with doombuggie, who hopefully had just as lovely a day.Even with my culinary extravagances of the past few days, my bank account is in acceptable shape. I'm debating a trip to HEB and/or Family Dollar, but I'm feeling awfully lazy, so I dunno if it'll happen. |

jennywho and kreibabe for a festive meal! We went to a teppanyaki/sushi place called Fujiyama. My wallet is pissed at me, but oh, what a meal! We each started off with a little sushi (I had a piece of salmon and a piece of eel). Then we did the teppanyaki thing. Always so much fun to watch! The chef hammed it up of course, and the food was amazingly yummy (I had hibachi scallops). It's far too expensive to be a regular thing of course, but that sort of restaurant is a lot of fun with friends... oh! They gave jennywho and kreibabe drinks menus, but not me. No way on earth do I look underage, but it gave me a chuckle (and I wasn't planning on drinking anyway).After that we went back to their place and watched The Triplets of Belleville and a couple of old Tales From The Darkside episodes. I also met their cats. The youngest, Oscar, was rather interested in my boots. Seeing as Hecate uses them as a scratching post more often than not, they probably smelled intruiging. It was nice hanging out with them, and nice meeting kreibabe.But now is time to lounge and doze and watch Hogfather. And maybe have more cocoa. |

Merry Christmas! I don't know anything about Diwali or Kwanzaa or any other winter holidays, but excellent those as well! Later today, HOGFATHER will be watched. And hanging out with jennywho might happen. |
