i LUCKILY sent mine in today. i finally got around to doing it and realized two of mine had 14 day postmarks. i used the meter machine at work *ahem* and double score, somehow the day is off by one on the machine, so the meter stamped it december 9th instead of december 10th. i photocopied the envelopes i sent everything in so they won't try to argue i "mailed" it after the deadline because it was postmarked definitely before. even if the post office restamps it again, it would have the 10th's date, which is the 14th day, and i walked to the post office and dropped it off in their slot for today's mail to make sure.

dang... some of you are ready to the max. we don't have a tree, and we're not planning to get one, although i was so tempted just to get one of those 2 feet tall fake trees just so we'd have something. i have a bunch of presents sitting on the floor waiting to be wrapped, so there are the presents my bf bought his families and slowly the ones i'm getting my family are showing up. so right now we only have four underneath our kitchen table. hehe. my brother's present is on its way to my office, so that'll be five, and i plan to pick up my parents and my other brother this weekend. and then... my friends. sigh. i said i'm cutting back this christmas though.

ARGH i tried going to the mall yesterday and the stupid beverly center... it took forever to get around the damn parking lot, and then we gave up, and it took us another 10 minutes just to leave the darn parking structure. and this was at 430 in the freaking afternoon too. GRRRRRRRRR.

HOT i was waiting for one of these. i need new shoes!

question: how well does this stuff keep? i usually finish most of it when it starts to get all melty. can i keep it in the fridge for abit? i am dying here and i kinda want to get the coldbuster to see if it is any help, but i can't drink the second by myself. i was going to keep it in my fridge for my bf to have later... (or maybe me. hehe.)

they charge sales tax for me. grr. *ponders if she should do this*

anyone have any reviews on that norcent? i just built a new pc and want to set up the second so my bf can terrorize it at will. if it's decent, i'll consider it for my PC or else leave it for the second one since it has built in speakers

195.00 dollars worth, all to different manufacturers for tons of diff parts.

i gots me the parts for a new computer!!! Fry's Electronics 1. antec slk1600 case, 44.99 - 40.00 MIR = 4.99 AR 2. Intel P4 3.2 ghz box cpu = 209.00 3. soyo mb - 50.00 - 50.00 MIR = FREE 4. Kingston DDR 512MB Ram, 84.99 - 15.00 MIR = 69.99AR 5. Mad Dog 12x DVD Burner (off brand) = 54.99 6. Western Digital 200GB HD - 118.88 - 60.00 MIR - 10.00 MIR = 48.88 AR 7. BFG Asylum 128mb video card - 84.99 - 20.00 MIR = 64.99 AR Total before rebates and after taxes: 702.36 Total once i get my 195.00 in Rebates: a smidge over 500 bucks. not bad at all for my new comp. Also went to the local outlet mall, went to Gap and my sister and i picked up buy one get one free fleece sweaters (10 bucks each in the end.) then went to another mall with a disney store and picked up a finding nemo plush for 7.99 (original price 16.50). good day! EDIT: i ddin't go early for anything though. i got to fry's around 11 and the super deals were already gone (i.e. the 70 dollar tv my brother thought about.) but i still got a sweet deal on most of my parts. they still had plenty of HD's in stock (both the 200gb wd for 48.88 AR and the seagate 120gb for 29.99 AR) and while the cheaper cpu/board combos were gone, this still isn't bad considering i'm going to get the MB for free (as long as soyo honors the rebate.)

i just bought a cashmere blend pea coat from costco for 60.00. you may want to check your local costco. i dunno about bf deals though.

all ikea's are like that. i noticed though that most "specials" would always say "not valid at SD store." i got their specials in this past sunday's paper.

3 for 12? the best deal i EVER got at bath and body works was 5 for 10 on their anti bacterial collection. i stocked up on soap and the anti bacterial things for quite a while on that sale. two bucks each!!! i have not seen a sale even close to that, the best i've seen is 4 for 10. i hope they have something good... usually i can always walk away with something from there.
