Sorry Lena. I'll try to stop taunting the Swedes.
I'll just focus my anger on the Iowans instead.
So the lefse is behind me now. Nearly killed me with the back trouble but I'm upright and ready for action.
Unfortunately I'm forced to wait at home today until a certain package arrives via UPS that needs to be signed for or else it will not get delivered.
By the way, UPS ruined my Christmas surprise from Thor.
I got home to a recorded message from UPS yesterday that said "We will be delivering 2 packages from Dell Computers on Wednesday that need to be signed for before they can be delivered. Some time between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m."
When Thor got home I said "I know what you got me for Christmas! Dell's sending two packages tomorrow!"
And poor Thor, he couldn't deny it because if he did - after just receiving a laptop through work - he'd look like he was spoiling himself and way too generous with the gifts for somebody else.
I'm getting a new computer!
I'm getting a real computer!
Not one refurbished from used parts found while dumpster diving!
This will be my first Real Computer ever!
It's way too much to spend for Christmas but I'll be danged if I'm going to send it back.
And I won't fuss too much that I'm locked in to staying home today. I'm taking advantage of it and have a batch of biscotti in the oven. Which, by the way, doesn't look like it's baking too well. I added way too much flour so the logs aren't spreading out like they normally do. That can't be right and I think I might have to throw it.
Dang.
Oh well. I can always bake more if the packages don't arrive until later this afternoon. If I have enough ingredients.
Shit.
I don't think I have enough ingredients.
I suppose just this once I could get the Christmas gifts wrapped before the last hour. Then again, if you take the Stress out of Christmas, what have you got left?
