ladydoujiIn another 8 hours or so I will be on a plane heading to Ohio. I need to be at the airport around 8:30am(I know they say 1 hour for domestic but I'm not trusting that with holiday travel) Since there's pretty much no way I'm waking up in time I have a couple hours to kill while I pull an all-nighter.
I've packed, washed and folded laundry made my bed(ahh so looking forward to coming home to a fluffy soft bed)
Packing was interesting since I didn't manage to mail the gifts up to Ohio and so they're going on the plane with me. My grandmother's gift(afghan I crocheted for her) took up about a quarter of my suitcase and I still needed to fit in another 14 gifts and clothing, toiletries etc. . . for 4 days. Thankfully since I'm only going to be there 4 days I didn't need to take that much stuff. 2 pairs of jeans, 5 tops(one extra which is my OSU sweatshirt for layering) 2 pairs of pjs, underwear cosmetics box. Got pretty much everything I needed fit. Then filled up my carryon bag with the pumpkin bread(that my uncles are getting in their gifts) my camera, one of my dolls and extra pair of shoes.
Called my mom and mentioned how absolutely packed my suitcase was with everything and she says "And you need an outfit for church Christmas Eve."
Whoa whoa what?
"Brian, Sherry and Amanda are doing the advent candle. I'm sure I told you about this"
No she didn't. She then tried to tell me that jeans and a nice shirt would be ok considering the type of church it is. But I know if I do that, there will be snarky comments(as well as if I just pass on the entire thing) Really I'm 31 years old, is it that important I go to church because my cousin is taking part in the service? So I manage to add a black skirt to the suitcase, a pair of dress shoes to the carry-on and toss in some pantyhose, that with the shirt I was planning to wear on the way up will be nice enough for church.
And following a link from a webcomic I found Horrible Histories. A sketch comedy edutainment show from the BBC. It's fantastic. A couple quick links to my favorites so far
Robert Knox
6 wives of Henry the 8th"
The Tudor's song"
I think I need the whole show, not just these little snippets on youtube.
