So, I got a damn good paycheck from last week. And...
But I have just enough money to pick up the one thing I wanted for Christmas but didn’t get: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.
I saw the movie twice in theaters: once at midnight in NYC, and once before seeing Billy Joel and Elton John in concecrt with Kristina. And I watched it on Boxing Day (which is a British holiday, but I don’t really know what it commemorates) on demand...

Oh AIM convos.
Mandee: 2. Jeff called me and wanted to make sure you got the essay.
Sam: I'll check my email.
Sam: Hang on...
Mandee: ok.
Sam: No, I got a bunch of spam emails.
Sam: And I checked all the names, and none say Jeff.
Sam: Although I can get 80% off on Viagra.
Mandee: Sweet.

I can't believe I haven't already posted about...
So, Mandee bought our tickets to the Parachute show in January… okay, next week. We pretty much decided that we had to go to this one, since we’d missed the last two times they were in Boston (they played with The Script in August, when I was working on West Side Story, and again in October with Kelly Clarkson, but I think I had rehearsals for Much Ado at that time), so we NEED to be...

My room is relatively neat. For now. It won't last...
I spent a good half of my day splunking in the hovel that is my room. When Stpehanie and the baby moved in, all of my things kind of just got shoved from the big central room to the little room in the back. And I’ve kinda been too busy to clean it, what with two shows back to back and then work and last week = eww, so it was today or bust. And I think I did pretty well.
I mean, it’s...

The most awkward conversation to ever have with...
Michelle: So, how's school?
Sam: Well, it's been over for about a week now.
Michelle: Oh yeah... So, when are you going to get a boyfriend?
Sam: Excuse me?
Michelle: Well, we just want to know.
Dad: You never bring anyone home. Everyone else just sort of brings everyone home. You kinda... just bring Mandee. Or Kristina. Or Ruth.
Michelle: I'm just nosy.
Sam: We are not having this conversation right now.
Michelle: Oh, come on. Do you at least like someone?
Sam: Yes.
Dad: What's her name?
Sam: His name, Dad. And no.
Michelle: Come on!
Sam: No. We are not having this conversation.
Michelle: Why not?
Sam: Because it's awkward.
Dad: It's not awkward. You're supposed to tell someone if you like them. You're the opposite, you tell them if you hate them, then bottle it up if you do.
Sam: You know, dating's kind of a two-way street here.
Dad: Well, you never do anything.
Sam: What?
Michelle: She goes to parties. Sometimes.
Dad: But she never really does anything.
Michelle: What's his name?
Sam: No.
Dad: Come on. How many guys you bangin'?

My three sisters got hair straighteners for...
Christmas was great! I got my external hard drive that I’ve been asking for since, um, May, and I’ve named him Sparky. He likes it, I think. Lights up sometimes too.
I also gave some presents that people liked. Stephanie wanted a giant pack of colored pencils, which I see have already been used. And my dad loved his pair of Darth Vader sleep pants. He promptly put them on after...

Review of a play.
Mandee: Before I go to bed, did you get an email from *********?
Sam: Yeah.
Mandee: lol ok. If you haven't read it yet, it's funny.
Sam: His play?
Mandee: mhhm
Sam: I've only read, like, five pages.
Mandee: I think it's funny.
Sam: I think it's punny.

Ugh, work was just not enjoyable today.
But it’s over, and I don’t have to go back until Saturday night. And that’s SUCH a good thing. Because if I had to work tomorrow, I’d probably kill every single person who walked through the door.
But other than that, work was great. There was just so much happiness and Christmas spirit in the deli, even though it was wicked busy and everything. Before noon, we had sold...

Yeah, I'm posting a lot today. Whatever. I have a...
I’m getting ready to take a shower. Yes, you needed to know that. That’s not the important part, but it’s still relevant.
The important part is that I’m making a new mix cd. Every few weeks or so I make a new list to play in the shower to sing along to. The only requirements are that they are upbeat and fun to scream in the shower. And that the song names have to be in...
