I found presents for my father, Melynda and a few other today. Somehow during all this shopping for others I bought myself lots of new lotions. It happens. Tulips and jasmine and lavender.
Worked on a new story today, inspired by last night's scratching. It had the potential to be ridiculous and insane, but I hope I'm working in the right direction. Such a long time since I last wrote a story. Eating sour punch straws helps my writing. Forcing myself to go slow, before I leap into these characters and run amok with them.
My upstairs neighbors thumping around like trolls, does not however. In retaliation I played Depeche Mode at an earsplitting volume for an hour or so. It's quiet now. Hah.
Wrapped Melynda's presents. She is on her way home now. We're going to exchange gifts and eat dessert tonight. She's going home to Houston in a few days, for family and friends. Early Christmas fun.
