Ted is awesome. I have been quite the Little Miss Depressy Pants the last couple of days, what with the tired and the dark and the rain and the everything. Today we went out into the wet grey world, and when we came home we had to change out of our damp clothes. I threw my pants on the bed and went into the bathroom. When I came out again, this was what greeted me: It seems the damp had made us shrink away to nothing entirely! I particularly thought…

turns out…
Turns out that although we went forth and bought peanuts as we were instructed–shelled salted peanuts–a critical word was not used in that phrase: roasted shelled salted peanuts. So I made about a cup and a third of utterly inedible peanut butter from raw peanuts because I didn’t know any better. It is really truly quite awful. I will now go make peanut butter fudge with the commercial peanut butter I have liberated from Mom and Dad’s house. :)

But in the meantime I got…
Christmas shopping, goodies & more promotional stuff
It is perhaps not morally superior, what with not going out and supporting the local economy, but *damn* it is nice and efficient to do Christmas shopping on Amazon. *dusts hands* Ted has made truffles.

Temple Library Reviews (aka LJ’s own ) has done a lovely writeup on theupcoming “Take A Chance” premiere, and Morrigan Books owner (owner?) Mark Deniz/ also mentions it on his blog. Yay! Ted and I actually got up and went to the gym today. We’re quite proud of ourselves. :) And for much of the rest of the day I’m going to make candy and prepare to send it out into the world. :) Oh, and I’ve got kitsnaps up and running again with a new, hopefully spam-freeish template which…
