So, my nasty aunt apparently send me a Christmas gift. In all likelihood it's another Painted Pony, because that's what I get every year. I'm surprised I'm getting anything. For those who don't remember, it was this woman:



So, though I wasn't going to get her a gift, I'm considering a donation to ASAN or IAADP in her name. Any other suggestions?

I'd donate 2 cents to the charity of your choosing, with a card stating as such. You know, since she is so free with throwing her two cents out there and all... ;)

When we were over for Christmas Eve, my parents wanted to let us know they had changed some things with their will and living trust. My nephew got married last year, and his wife has a 6 year old daughter from a previous relationship. One of the things my parents did was to legally designate her as their great-granddaughter for purposes of inheritance, etc.

My family doesn't really believe in "step" stuff, if you are in the family then you are in the family. So really it's not something unexpected for them to do. But for some reason it just struck me as such a sweet and adorable thing to do and every time I think about it, it makes me teary. Muse muse muse feels feels feels.

I love babies and have always loved babies, but for the past few years I had pretty much decided that I was not really interested in having my own kids.

But now, after spending the evening with my boyfriend's 3 week old cousin, I have completely changed my mind and I REALLY want to start trying for a baby in a few years. I'm only 24, but I'd like to have my first kid before I'm 30.
I'll have to start prepping the BF!!

Go to the bar and see people I have not seen since high school... oooooor lay on the floor at home playing Pokemon?

UGH such decisions.

I guess I can take about an hour or so out of my Pokemon-playing time to go to the bar... I guessssss.

I think my favorite show is "My Little pony: Friendship is Magic". Most hilarious show ever
I've watched them all and I'm a 22 year old grown woman :rofl1:

Did you know there is a huge amount of adult males that love the show and claim that the show is "not a children's show" and that they are the demographic lol they are called Bronies.

LMAO I saw a car with a Bronie STICKER on the back while I was grocery shopping a few weeks ago. They must've been proud :p

Beautiful British Columbia!!
A co-op student is moving in for four months Jan. 4th. This will be out second co-op student. I hope this one has more life skills and knows how to live on his own without mommy. Our last one had no life skills. I am pretty sure his mother taught him nothing. Fingers crossed this one is better.

Yes, I heard about them... And now I can't unlearn that info lol.

Seriously though, the show is ridiculously entertaining. I can't even pick a favorite pony. They are all awesome in a completely different way but i do love pinkie pie

Michael is trying to cook lunch. Spaghetti and shrimp scampi. He's boiling the water before the oven is even preheated (thus, the sketty will be done way before the shrimp)...and then when he put the spaghetti into the pan he covered it and it started to boil over.

This is amusing. LOL :D
