this season of christmas

the christmas season was not intended for getting up and going to work everyday.

i actually have that opinion about all seasons, but this post is about christmas.

i am supposed to be in colorado. i am supposed to be shopping, baking, and decorating with my mother. i haven't spent an entire christmas season at home in over six years and i find this to be very upsetting.

now, let's talk about how precious these christmas decorations are.

my life is complete

there is a new marcel the shell video and it's quite possibly more adorable that the first one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"guess why i smile a lot."

"why?"

"uhh..cuz it's worth it."

oh my heavens that is precious.

everybody's doing it

so everyone uses gmail these days. i have a gmail account but i really just use it for reader and occasionally g chat. the email that i currently use is a netscape email. i know, right? i have had that email since i was like 14. a few years ago it was taken over by aol so i guess it's an aol account now.

the main reason why i haven't fully switched over to gmail is because it has been ugly. but since they changed their look it is all cool now and i like it.

but i am still apprehensive to make the jump. i feel like all the good email addresses are taken and i'll end up with yet another "paiger"with an "87" on the end email like i have had for the past decade. trust me, i've seen what paige thomas options are out there.

and i don't like the ads in gmail. at least the few ads they have on netscape/aol are pretty.

now i need you to tell me your thoughts on gmail and convince me to catch up with 2011.

well it's november i guess.

i haven't decided how i feel about this yet.
