I'll Be Home for Christmas

Wow, another year came and gone, and all I have to show for it is old age spots and the beginning of a wrinklier me. I started blogging here on myspace in April, and I have made some of the best friends a girl could ask for. A few I even met, and have crossed over from net friend to “real life” friend… I am such a lucky girl.

Tonight, after DH (Dear Husband for those of you just now tuning in) gets off work, we are heading back to Oklahoma to spend the holidays with our family. I am extremely excited about going home, and can’t wait to see everyone. We thought it would be best to drive all night, so the chillin’s can sleep… making the drive waaay more tolerable for the both of us.

I love Phoenix, but it just doesn’t feel like it’s Christmas time here. The houses are decorated, but the feeling just isn’t here. I want to be able to walk out side and see my breath and feel the cold kisses of the night air bless my nose, ears, and cheeks. I want to smell wood fireplaces blazing, and taste the hot cocoa in the air. Christmas carolers stage left, and I want to see them brightly colored in traditional Christmas garb… with bells on dammit. Bring in the snow… lots of it, and maybe a slight wind.. carriage rides… que the laughing children and kissing couples.

Enter the cozy home… smell of cookies, cakes, and pies fills the air. I want to warm my pink hands over the furnace and wrap up in that beautiful quilt my sister made last year… thawing my toes slowly. Welcoming hugs from those loved ones that always warm my heart, and just breathing in… home.

I have never been so homesick in all my life as I am this holiday season.

I will probably be away most of the next couple weeks, due to my mother’s crappy internet, but know I am thinking of you and wishing you the HAPPIEST of HOLIDAYS! I should be back in full force on the 6th of January… I hope to see you all then.

If you’re bored, go back through some of my old draws and write a piece or two for me to read when I get back. I will start a regular draw after the first of the year… and I promise to write too.

I Eat Superheros for Breakfast

Man, today has just been one of those really shitty days. The weather is messed up and… it’s just Oklahoma here. It really sucks. So, I’ve been dragging ass thinking about taking up a new hobby. I’ve put a lot of thought into this. It’s not like I haven’t anything else to do. There are multiple piles of dishes cluttering up my kitchen, baskets of clean laundry ready to put away, baskets of dirty laundry needing to be washed, laundry in the dryer, and week old laundry in the wash… starting to stink up the place. OK, OK I am not the model housekeeper. I hate doing the laundry. I hate doing dishes. I hate cleaning the bathroom. My ultimate plan has completely backfired on me… I was going to grow up and be independently wealthy. Damn Disney for not making my happily ever after… shitsticks! I do the stuff… it does start to bother me, but I still HATE it. You sure wouldn’t think I was OCD.

ANYway, a hobby. I’ve done about everything. This time I want something exciting and different. I started thinking about this today as I was patiently waiting in the dentist office for my novacaine to deaden half of my face. I’ve got it. I am going to be a Super Hero… wait more fun – a SUPER VILLIAN!

No one would ever suspect it. I could sneak out of the house at night and wreck havoc around the neighborhood. I’m not into anything really bad… I might steal a few newspapers or something, or mess with the little flags on people’s mailboxes. oOoO that would really bother them. Maybe draw on their sidewalks with colored chalk…. mmmwahahahaha. Absolute evil. Yeah I’m bad. You know it.

The best part is that I HAVE TO HAVE a supersuit. All good super villiams have a suit… and I shouldn’t be an exception. I haven’t gotten the whole thing figured out yet… but I think spandex is out. Nothing too formfitting… I mean, I am looking for comfort here as I’m out galavanting through the neighborhood. Nothing that is going to swish or swoosh while I’m trapsing about either… so that outs corduroy or those annoying wind suits. I want something that is flattering… maybe make me look thinner with bigger boobs… yes yes. No refective coloring, because we have a bit of traffic in the late hours, and I wouldn’t want them to think I was an out-of-season trick-or-treator or one of those insane power walkers. No cape that’s too cliche. I’m not impartial to a hat though. Any designers out there up for this challenge? email me: tomaraa@gmail.com

A good name is also a must… I’m thinking something like Midnight Madness. Because it’s dark. Midnight is kind of late for me though… the baby likes to wake up around then and again around 5ish… up for good at 6:30. I do, however, like to shop… and we all know the sales you find at midnight madness. Or maybe the Evening Avenger. I really don’t like that one because it’s sounds like I’m pissed or something… out for revenge. The Naughty Neighbor… wait I think that’s porn… well crap. Maybe it will come to me later. ANYway, I’ve gotten kind of lazy in my old age, it’s going to be weeks before I feel like wandering the neighborhood under the cloak of darkness to wreck mayhem upon this neighborhood’s loyal citizens.

I’ll keep you posted.
