so much happy I may burst

Let me tell you internets about what an AWESOME Friday I am having:

• It's Friday!!!!
  
• I am going up to the garment district with aviendiora and llyrafantasyfae tomorrow!
  
• I am wrapping Christmas presents!
  • While drinking hot apple cider
    
  • And burning actual German incense cones in my actual German smoker dude (mine is a little guy in lederhosen, with a trumpet) that makes me super-nostalgic for our Munich Christmases
    
  • And watching my *favorite* Christmas special of all time, Christmas Eve on Sesame Street! Big Bird waits for Santa! Bert and Ernie reenact the Gift of the Magi! They play crack-the-whip! Cookie Monster eats the Christmas tree! (And how much did I want to be that little girl who teaches Big Bird to skate?)
    
  • Next up is Muppet Christmas Carol!
• I ran four miles today, 11-minute miles the whole way! No more 12-minute miles for me! for me. Run faster = done faster, right J-9?
  • While finishing the last two eps of Disc 1, Season 1 of NCIS. I'm only allowed to watch while I'm working out. :)
• I mailed off my family's presents today, and hardly had to wait at all. Yay, automated postal center thingies!
  
• Oh my gosh, this video of an R2-D2 dance company (via Club Jade):

There's magic in the air this evening, magic in the air...

you got actual german incense cones for your smoker?!?! wow. where did you find those?

[brightcupenny.livejournal.com]

*checks the box* According the price tag, Nordstrom. I didn't buy them though, someone gave them to me. I'm guessing Mom or Dad. Or maybe you did and forgot?

...........? norstrom!?!? I bought you 3 packs this summer from the store downtown! Direct from Germany! Maybe these were left over from when dad found them at nordstrom a couple years ago?

Oh oh oh! You wanted me to acknowledge you, you weren't actually asking a question! :D

Yes yes, I was burning the very last cone of the Nordstrom incense. I will start on the ones you found me next. :)

OMG, I adored that Sesame Street Christmas special - and that song they sing? I still remember it even though I haven't seen it since I was a kid!

Keep Christmas with you, all through the year...

:D I bought a VHS tape of it off Amazon in college. They have it on DVD now!
