I can't believe Thanksgiving is next week! I love the holidays! Ahhhh!

All I want to do is plan. I just wrote out a master Christmas list. Sarah and Emily have been invited over to help with Project Cookie in my very own production of The Little Kitchen That Could scheduled for the first weekend in December. I'm going to be cheap and not buy the Kitchen-Aid mixer. I know it would be glorious, but I just don't want to spend any money on anything that I know I can survive without. Also, fine, I'm cheap.

In some ways the upcoming move is making me hyper-organized, because there really isn't time to dither. I can't do things at the last second because I will be moving, and then I will be out of town, and then the damn holidays will be over.

This weekend I need to:

- clean my flat and clean my garbage-strewn car
- shop for ingredients for Thanksgiving dinner
- make a master list of the types of cookies I'm making and do some basic math so I know quantities
- buy materials for handmade Christmas cards (we'll see how that goes)
- start buying the presents I know I want to get people and stash them away

Mostly it's an unscheduled sort of weekend. Saturday I'm meeting Jeanne to knit in a cafe somewhere. Sunday Sarah and I are going to hang out and watch Heavenly Creatures (which I'm sure will be as disturbing and fucked-up as reported).

Ahhh! Yes, that movie is fucked up. But when I was 16 we were watching it for the low-grade lesbianism.

Why am I not surprised? :)

[archaica.livejournal.com]

I don't know what *THAT* is supposed to mean!

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Heee!

[archaica.livejournal.com]

you find me a teenage boy who isn't into lesbianism and ..... you've found a *gay* teenage boy :)

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

As Xander says in BtvS, "I'm a teenage boy. Linoleum gets me hot."

[archaica.livejournal.com]

EXACTLY.

Now, a 27/28-year-old with the same ..... mental voracity would be in big trouble :)

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Then there are a lot of 27/28 year-olds in trouble :)

[archaica.livejournal.com]

Good thing I'm not one of them!

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Yup! *grin*

MONKEY DISAGREES YOU ARE A LIAR BEN

what?

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

MONKEY NEVER LIES!

LISTEN TO THE WOMAN SHE KNOWS WHAT SHE'S TALKING ABOUT

monkey, you're crazy! I wouldn't lie about being a disreputable perv!

Silly monkey.

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

No, why would anyone lie about being a disreputable perv??

[archaica.livejournal.com]

Well, I can be "saucy" sometimes, maybe even "naughty," but "disreputable perv" may be carrying things a bit far :)

THERE YOU GO AGAIN

[verbicide.livejournal.com]

Now, did I ever say you were a disreputable perv?!

I find you to be a perfectly reputable perv! *grin*

[archaica.livejournal.com]

Just so long as my reputation is intact :) Whatever that reputation may be :)

Oh yes. Yes indeed. And might I pimp my review of the film here:

Because I'm a shameless ho.

Oh, yeah. I should have logged in before I did that.

And I should make the URL shorter:

Factoid: Melanie Lynskey later shows up in "But I'm a Cheerleader." It's true.

[coffeeinhell.livejournal.com]

And she's a regular on "Two and a Half Men."

[archaica.livejournal.com]

you win.
