But Moe… the dank!!

I’m really failing the deal I made with my friend Janna. She said she would write more if I wrote more rambly. And my rambly is rather lacking. But then… she hasn’t written since we made that deal, so I’m not the only one failing it. So that’s better, I guess.

There was a package at the post office today. But it wasn’t the super important exciting thing I am waiting for. Although it is kind of exciting. It’s my christmas present from Jake. He doesn’t know what it is though. That’s kinda backwards. But that’s how we work. This way I get exactly what I want. I refuse to wrap my own present though, he gets to do that. And then I can aww at the adorable wrapping job he does. heh

I feel like I should come up with something special for us to do on Christmas. So far it is just… what we do every day. We don’t even have santa hats or anything to wear to make the regular stuff seem christmassy. Which I guess goes with the ‘theme’ of the apartment. We don’t have a tree, or any decorations. We have a few ornaments, little things people have gifted our way, but that’s it. And ornaments are pretty useless without a tree.

I dunno. I just don’t really see the point in decorating. I guess that comes from growing up in a house that never put up a tree or lots of decorations or anything. We had a tree when I was really little that I think came inside. And then for a while there was a christmas tree in a giant pot growing in the backyard, but that’s about it. Because we always went to Adelaide for Christmas, so no one was home and therefore the decorations wouldn’t be enjoyed on the day that they would be celebrating… so yeah. Once I get some christmas cards I’ll blutack them to the wall, and that’s about it.

We would’ve gotten one of Lisa’s awesome colour-flashy christmas trees but I would’ve only put it up if we were doing the christmas dinner, which Stacy is doing on the 3rd of January (that’s why we are lazing on the 25th, Matt and Lisa have to work at the casino, like they did for actual-Thanksgiving) . Probably better that she’s doing christmas, I’ve seen the pictures of her place already, massively awesomely decorated. So… yes.

That sunset at the top of the page? Same day as the other pretty pictures I’ve been posting lately. I I had to run up the hill the church is on to take it. Not the church that is here. That one is a minute from here. Sunset-church is… 3 minutes? There are a lot of churches on this street.
