Less than a week before Christmas, and finally got around to ordering some presents for Lucy. Yay for Amazon Prime. Watered the tree for the first time since I can remember. Kind of surprising, because I got some ornament water meter device that's supposed to flash red when the level gets past a certain level. I thought for sure it was dry, but there's still water in there. Crazy. Not going to be fun trying to clean that up in a couple weeks. Do they make special tree trash bags? Lost one of my Seirus Xtreme All Weather Gloves Sunday morning when I took Lucy down to More and Pierrot Gourmet for cupcakes and macaroons respectively. Must have fell out of my pocket when I took Lucy's hat out when getting off the bus. A usual Saturday, Green City Market, Nature Museum. Busy because of the Jingle Bell run, but we got lucky with some parking relatively close by. Took some photos of Lucy in the snow. Got our knives sharpened for the first time since we got them. Brought them with in a makeshift cardboard sleeve container. But now they're so sharp they actually get stuck in the cutting board. Got a haircut, picked up some Mark's Chop Suey for dinner. Wandered down Broadway on Sunday after Tracy got off work, checked out the Goorin Bros. Hat Shop and Gap had a big sale, but I didn't find anything I needed. Finally watched Bridesmaids, and I think it had a little too much heart, and not enough comedy. And no actual Vegas activity? Crazy. Heard back from my parents, and they and their relatives are all ok, unaffected directly by the typhoon that hit Mindanao.
