a week into the new year

A week has passed in the new year and I still haven't written a blog post! Or made a vlog for that matter. But I did just film one in my car on my lunch break. It's obviously going to be a winner. It's one of those look at the past year and set goals for the new year videos. Which I think is important because you've told people and feel more obligated to reach your goals. But the video is kind of rushed and late. Oh well. It's the story of my life. I am notorious for procrastinating. I driven by goals and deadlines. Otherwise I don't accomplish things. Hence the neccesity of fore-mentioned vlog.
I'm writing this at work and for the life of me, I can't remember when I last blogged. Probably not a good sign. So to cover all my bases I'll just recap a little.
Christmas was good this year. I enjoyed my family tile and only got a little sad once. That's really good for me! Which in and of it's self is a little sad. But we won't dwell on it. I don't. It was a little weird having Christmas dinner at someone else's house. My parents have become pretty good friends with a family of my mom's coworker. That sentence was udderly confusing but hopefully you got it. I don't know this family all that well but I've seen them a few times. It wasn't awkward really. Just different.
We also saw Sherlock Holmes on Christmas which I thought was really good! I like when characters are bad asses because of their brain power. On a side note I also saw Avatar recently. The animation in it was really awesome. I do, however think the storyline is a mix of Pocahontas and Fern Gully.
New Year's eve was a ton of fun! I did a fondue party house because I got a fondue pot for Christmas. It actually turned out better than I thought it was going to. I'd seen fondue made before but never actually made it myself. It was delicious! We rang in the New Year with champagne and played some board games. There's nothing better than being surrounded by your closest friends. So much fun!
This last week has been filled with getting used to my new work schedule and returning to the pre-k classroom. It's very different from infants and takes awhile to adjust. But all is going well!
EDIT: I wrote this on my ipod and e-mailed it and yes, it is up late!
