Dec. 10th, 2008 07:01 pmI need to get started on my Holiday Baking. I'm not horribly motivated on this but it's a need-to-do action item just the same. It feels like xmas is thundering down upon me, probably because of the shortened span of days between tgiving and xmas this year. Darned calendar!!
Holiday Baking involves mostly cookies, the cookies of my people. Those would be sand tarts, moravian spice cookies, currant cookies, and (for research purposes) gingersnaps Mk II. I don't make shapes of cookies or cookies that are decorated artistically with expression or individuality. All of a kind are the same shape. Order and uniformity are serious values for cookies.
Holiday baking is also going to involve whatever it is that I want to take to NYE, though mostly as a contemplation until rather closer to NYE. What I really want, I'm afraid, is that damned 24 hr salad. (Salad in name only. Not good for you. At all.) It doesn't ship particularly well, is the first problem. There's no pretty way to put it into a cooler. Other than that, it'd be OK. I guess I could logistic it up on site enough that it wouldn't look weird, but... people like presentation and stuff. I like presentation and stuff. Second problem: It's not really a party nosh. Third problem: Might as well stick it directly to my ass.
Let me think on the NYE festivity offering. Perhaps I'll come up with something else before the hour of need...
I need to get new music into my head pronto. I am not *currently* listening to Rammstein, but I want to be. This has been seriously more than a week now. It's plenty. I've definitely gotten my RDA here. How the fuck am I not bored yet? More. Want more. Having issues with lead singer's voice. It's... compelling. Fuck. Make it stop. There's a whole other album, hell, there's two, that I haven't yoinked from the 'net so, y'know, there could be more. It'd be so easy. I like the *sound* of german. NO. STOP THE MADNESS. Damn it. This is Trys's fault.
